Suites •  We have been hard at work on a documentary film entitled A Last Hurrah, that commemorates the golden age of high school football in the 1950s. The cornerstone of the film is the CIF Championship game between Downey and Anaheim. To watch a five minute promo of the film, please click on this link: https://vimeo.com/195425098#t=0s Much of this documentary has already been filmed, but we are currently seeking funds to finish production. Jim Fassel, former head coach of the N.Y. Giants and an Anaheim High School graduate, has been promoting the film as well. To view the two-minute promo featuring Fassel, please click on this link: https://vimeo.com/216329518#t=0s The title game betwenn Downey and Anaheim was a memorable event for the class of '57.
