KUT's Jennifer Stayton w/ Bower Yousse & Thomas Cryan "Freddie Steinmark: Faith, Family, Football" by KUT News

In 1969, the University of Texas football team was undefeated and beat Arkansas in what’s often called the “Game of the Century.” One of the players on that team was Freddie Steinmark. He was from Colorado - small for a football player, but he made his mark with his tough and smart play. His college career was cut short because of cancer, but Freddie Steinmark wound up making as big an impact off the field as he did on the field. KUT's Jennifer Stayton spoke with Steinmark’s childhood friend and high school teammate Bower Yousse and Thomas Cryan, who have written a book about Freddie Steinmark's life. They will be speaking at the 2015 Texas Book Festival October 17-18, 2015.
