ALUMNI OUTREACH

Members of the 1993 Class 4A State Championship Football team were invited to a gathering January 14, 2008 prior to the Marian vs. Marist men’s basketball game. It was the first time many of them had seen the new Bergstrom Fitness Center, team film room and Leadership Center. Coach Dave Mattio, along with Coach Bergstrom, took the guys on a trip down memory lane, recounting significant moments in each game of the ’93 season, while a DVD of the State Championship game played in the background.
