press release October 29, 2013

Ewing, NJ… Three football alums from The College of New Jersey will be featured this evening on the ‘NFL Network’ with regard to their experiences of Hurricane Sandy and how football has played a role in community recovery.

At 10:30 p.m. tonight, \”NFL Films Presents\” is airing a program that includes interviews with former Lions’ football players Julian (Jay) Price ’93, Jeff Bower ’07, ’10, and Steve Bower ’10. The special reflects on the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy one year after it struck the New Jersey Shore. The 30-minute show speaks of the resolve of three communities – Manasquan, Point Pleasant Beach, and Keyport – and how they all rallied around their high school football teams.

Price has been honored numerous times this past year for his heroic efforts during the hurricane. This past January, he was given a special presentation at the 19th annual TCNJ Football Banquet before speaking to the program audience.
