No tailgate party for Fisher's Faggiano
Cardinals assistant leaves '130 kids' to rejoin his new son

(December 10, 2006) — St. John Fisher College players, fans and families gathered for a tailgate party after Saturday's game in the Mount Union Stadium parking lot.There was one notable absence.
Defensive coordinator Blaise Faggiano was on his way back to Rochester to see his newly adopted son, 7-month-old James Antonio Faggiano."Usually I'm an avid tailgater," Faggiano said. "I just wanted to get back to see James as soon as I could."
Faggiano returned to Rochester from Guatemala — where his son is from — late Friday, and made the trip to Ohio overnight."The timing of the trip was wonderful," he said. "We left Guatemala City at 2:30, we left Atlanta at 9, and we got to Rochester around 11 or 11:30 and by 1:30 I had three Fisher alumni pick me up and drive me out here.
"We got to Alliance around 6:30. I slept the whole way, got the rest, got to sleep in the hotel a little bit. Then I got to do the morning prayer, breakfast at 8:30, and got to coach at the game today."
Senior defensive lineman Greg Pyszczynski said he admired Faggiano's dedication to the team."He really busted his butt to get down here," Pyszczynski said.
"I know he took his laptop with him (to Guatemala), which has all the game film and the breakdown on it. He still led us even though he was over there."
Faggiano said it was, however, difficult leaving his wife, Alison, and new son behind."My wife didn't make the trip. That was the hardest part," he said.
He also missed the chance to be with his son on his first night in his new home."I wasn't able to be there, which was hard, but I had to go with the other 130 kids of mine," he said.
