Rush News

Each year the Roscoe Rush tries to better the organization on and off the field.  This year is no different.  We have a TV deal which has all of our games and our weekly coaches show being aired on Comcast channel 57.  We thought that was a huge step for the team, until we were approached by Anderson Film & Video for another project.  Along with that the Rush has teamed with a local multi-media company.

The Roscoe Rush have joined forces with Zalzalah Studios Inc.  Jim Zalzalah will handle this seasons highlight film, and all future multi-media for the Rush.  Jim has been working with video, animation, audio and photos for 10 years.  Jim opened his own Home Video Studio locally.

 Anderson Film & Video will be putting together a documentary film that follows the Roscoe Rush through their 2008 season.  Chuck Anderson is a local freelance videographer for ESPN and FOX Sports Channel.  Chuck will give everyone an inside look at the Rush as he follows the team through practices and games for 2008.
