CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas \u2014 Corpus Christi native and Cincinnati Reds catcher Jose Trevino returned home Tuesday to host the second annual Centurion Golf Classic at the Gabe Lozano Golf Center.<\/p>\n
The charity event drew golfers from across the Coastal Bend, with proceeds benefiting the athletic department at St. John Paul II Academy \u2014 Trevino\u2019s alma mater.<\/p>\n
Trevino said the tournament is his way of giving back to the school and community that helped shape him, while inspiring young athletes to dream big.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust to raise awareness that there is a good school. John Paul is a great school; it was good for me, good for my family, and I think just giving back to it is one of the most important things for me,\u201d Trevino said.<\/p>\n
He added that he plans to continue growing the tournament each year to reach and motivate even more students throughout the Coastal Bend.<\/p>\n
