A sad note to pass along in the college football world Thursday, as Boston College senior Mark Herzlich let it be known that he is fighting cancer.
The reigning ACC defensive player of the year was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a malignant tumor most often found in bone or soft tissue.
In 2008, the Wayne, Pa., native was a third team All-America and a finalist for the Butkus Award, given to the nation's best linebacker.

George W. Bush will be joined by Joe Paterno at the Manufacturer & Business Association's annual event at the Bayfront Convention Center on June 17.
Paterno will not speak at the event.
