New Bassick coach Frank Marcucio is fired up, to say the least. His kids should be stoked, too.
Marcucio managed to secure 50 tickets to a national movie event, a live football movie starring former Indianapolis coach Tony Dungy, called Tony Dungy’s Red Zone ’09.
It’s an instructional and motivational show for high school football players sponsored by MaxPreps.com being shown at 450 theaters nationwide. Guests include USC coach Pete Carroll, former NFL standout and motivational speaker Joe Ehrmann, NFL Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin, current NFL players Peyton Manning, Bob Sanders, Joseph Addai, Adam Vinatieri and Dallas Clark. They’ll be broadcasting live from Plano, Texas.
Marcucio is taking his entire team to the event tonight. He had about 20 or so tickets left over, so he offered the remaining tickets to new Harding coach James Morris. Both Bassick and Harding football teams will be going together to the viewing at Regal Cinemas in Branford.
Here’s a link to one of Dungy’s videos.
