Historical Background |
George Musacco played football for Loyola University from 1948 - 1950, where his astounding records, such as rushing 2,202 yards on 418 carries, earned him the distinction of being named one of the top fullbacks on the West Coast. In 1950, Musacco was named the Second Team fullback on the All-Coast Team after he rushed 202 yards in a game against San Jose State, rushed 171 yards against Fresno State, and scored 2 touchdowns to help Loyola earn an upset win over Ollie Matson. After graduating, Musacco joined the military and played service football for two years before going into the grocery and cleaning businesses. |
