Bloomington feeling Rosey

Darell (Rosey) Rosenbrock was the type of football player who would do anything for Bloomington.

‘He’d go run through that fence if you told him to,’ said Roger Kowalski, one of his former coaches at the school.

Thirty years later, he’s still doing all he can to help the Bruins.

Rosenbrock, a 1976 graduate of Bloomington, spent three years researching the history of the Bruins’ football program and another year putting together one of the more complete school record books you’ll see at this level.

Every school seems to have an especially devoted alum, but Rosey belongs in his own category.

By the way, Rosey is pretty happy because the Bruins (1-1) just took a 14-7 lead early in the second quarter against host Moreno Valley Rancho Verde (2-0), which had allowed only six points all season coming into tonight’s game.
