Lamping Resigns
Written by Mike on March 14, 2008 – 2:25 am -The news just keeps coming in, so here’s a second post for today. Cardinals’ team president Mark Lamping is resigning after 13 years with the club to become the CEO of the New Meadowlands Stadium Company, a company that will develop the stadium project that will house New York’s two NFL teams.
Lamping was hired in 1994, and hired former GM Walt Jocketty in ‘95. He was a large part of the team’s turnaround as well as getting the new stadium built, where the Cards won the World Series in the stadium’s inaugural season.
Bill Dewitt III, the son of the current team chairman, will succeed Lamping as president. The official announcement will be held at a Busch Stadium press conference tomorrow. Bernie Miklasz has the full story.
