Geez, win a second state championship in three years last December, and suddenly the Peacock Network comes calling. Phoenix Brophy’s recent success will be spotlighted during Sunday Night NFL telecasts in September (Jennifer Grimes/Tribune).
Phoenix Brophy is playing during prime time (or at least on TV) , and the Broncos will also be featured on the tube.
NBC will air a piece on the Broncos as part of a look at the so-called “gutiest” high school football around the country as part of its “Line of Scrimmage” series.
Following an introductory piece on Sept. 7, the 45-second shorts of Brophy will air Thursday, Sept. 14, and Sunday, Sept. 21 during halftime of the Sunday night telecasts.
Meanwhile, the Broncos open this season earlier than all, with an Aug. 23 matchup against fellow state champions in Bishop Gorman (Nevada) at University of Phoenix Stadium.
