Former Super Bowl players Marc Munford (Class of 1983, Super Bowl XXIV), Brad Henke (Class of 1984, Super Bowl XXIV), and Tom Rouen (Class of 1987, Super Bowls XXXII & XXXIII) made a special appearance at Heritage High School’s winter pep assembly on Friday morning. As part of the Super Bowl High School Honor Roll, created by the NFL in commemoration of Super Bowl 50, the three former Denver Broncos returned to their high school alma mater to present the Eagles with commemorative Golden Footballs.
In a letter to Heritage principal Stacey Riendeau, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell wrote, “As a member of this special group, a commemorative Golden Football produced by Wilson is being sent to the high school of every player or head coach who was on an active roster in a Super Bowl.”
Heritage High School is the only school in Colorado with three players who went on to play in a Super Bowl. Congratulations to Heritage and a special thank you to Munford, Henke, Rouen and the NFL for the special honor!
