The Southern Arizona Chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame will hold a public reception and luncheon Fri., Oct. 18 for University of Arizona great Tedy Bruschi.
Former UA great Tedy Bruschi will join fellow Desert Swarm teammate Rob Waldrop in the College Football Hall of Fame later this year
