Crusaders’ hard-hitting linebacker previews Catholic’s big game at Manheim Central on Friday

Don’t let that smile fool you — Alan Berlucchi is one mean dude on the football field.

Lancaster Catholic’s senior linebacker is a big hitter with a penchant for finding the ball carrier.

Berlucchi and his Crusaders’ teammates will face a stiff test on Friday night, when Catholic heads to Manheim Central to take on the Barons in a much-anticipated non-league game featuring two of the most successful football programs in Lancaster County.

In this audio Podcast interview, I chatted with Berlucchi before practice on Monday about how he and his teammates are getting ready for the Barons, and how much fun it should be to play in a game of that magnitude.
