Classic Features South Jersey's Top High School Senior Stars!
GLASSBORO
The Annual Taliaferro Foundation Blue-White All-Star Football Classic will be held Saturday, June 26, 7 p.m. at Rowan University’s Richard Wackar Football Stadium in Glassboro.
The rosters for the Annual Blue-White All-Star Classic – the all-star football game that brings together South Jersey's premier seniors – have been finalized and are available online at www.taliaferrofoundation.org.
Coaches for the all-star contest will be Northern Burlington football coach Jon Reising (Blue team) and Haddonfield coach Frank DeLano (White team).
Proceeds from the annual contest will once again benefit the Adam Taliaferro Foundation.
Taliaferro, the former Eastern High School standout, was paralyzed while making a tackle for Penn State in 2000. He has made a remarkable recovery and is now an attorney for a Philadelphia law firm.
The Adam Taliaferro Foundation (www.taliaferrofoundation.org) was started in 2001, and has raised nearly $400,000, helping others who have incurred spinal injuries throughout the tri-state area.
The mission of the Foundation is to not only provide financial but emotional support for victims of spinal cord injuries and education to treat and prevent future injuries. In addition, the foundation provides yearly scholarships to high school students.
