Bruce DeHaven Day and Giveaways from Graves Drug Stores on Saturday at SC Football Game

The Southwestern College football team will host McPherson College Saturday, Sept. 23, at 6 p.m.  SC will celebrate Bruce DeHaven Day and Graves Drug Stores is the game sponsor.  

A 1970 graduate of Southwestern, DeHaven is credited with revolutionizing the role of special teams in the National Football League. His coaching career began at Oxford High School and stretched to five NFL teams that reached the Super Bowl five times. DeHaven passed away Dec. 27, 2016 after a battle with cancer; members of his family will attend the game.

A special recognition of DeHaven will occur at halftime.  The presentation will be led by Southwestern College President Brad Andrews and athletic director Matt Shelton.

"We are looking forward to celebrating the lifetime achievements of an amazing man and a very special Moundbuilder," said Shelton. "Coach DeHaven was truly a teacher who cared deeply about developing players as skilled athletes and as people of great character. We anticipate a crowd of former players and friends will be at Jantz Stadium on Sept. 23 to join us in honoring him."

Graves Drug Stores is the game sponsor and will provide free flu shots with insurance card or $20 flu shots with game day program; free blood pressure readings; samples of float shots and limeade; and commemorative footballs.
