ANOTHER
FIRE PLAYER TO JOIN THE RUSH
Louisville, KY-The Louisville
Fire Arena Football Team would like to
announce that former Fire player Nick
Zeck has signed with the Chicago Rush.
Zeck is the first player from the 2007
roster to sign with an Arena Football
League team. He will be joining former
Fire player Rob Mager.
Zeck began the 2007 season
with the Georgia Force on the practice
squad. He joined the Fire late in the
season. In six games with the Fire, Zeck
acquired 17.5 tackles, 2 forced fumbles,
and 3 quarterback sacks.
“Nick was big part of our
second half surge into the playoffs last
season,” said Assistant Head Coach George
Eskridge. “He brought a physical presence
along with intensity, versatility, and
athleticism. We are really proud of him
because we know he really worked hard
to get back into the AFL.”
In 2007, the Rush went 12-4
and won their third Central Division championship.
The Rush lost to the eventually Arena
Bowl winners San Jose Sabercats. The Rush
will kick off the 2008 season on March
3 against the Sabercats.
