Anthony Guzman played for the Yavapai (Prescott Valley, AZ) Bandits. He recently passed away and his team mates will be honoring his memory at their game on Saturday, April 10th at 4:00 PM on the Bradshaw Mountain High School football field.
The Bandits will play their Northern Arizona rival the Flagstaff Hitmen. The Hitmen have many team members that grew up in the Prescott area and were friends with Anthony. Bandits team owners Kurt and Robbie Dembaugh and their son and Bandit player Jacob will be presenting the Guzman family with Anthony's framed game jersey.
They will also be giving them some photos and other items. Anthony had friends from many area high schools including Prescott, Mayer, Camp Verde, Sedona, Bradshaw. Plus he attended both Yavapai College and Scottsdale Community College where he made many more friends.
