The special commemorative jerseys were designed in conjunction with representatives of the Cirillo family and SP Apparel, and are a tribute to Cpl.

In addition to the proceeds from the jersey auction, the Bulldogs will donate $2 to the Marcus Cirillo Trust from every individual and group ticket sold to the Dec. 5 game.
