Mike Curcio (1976-79), one of the top linebackers in Temple football history, earned honorable mention All-America as a senior captain on the Owls' 1979 Garden State Bowl championship team. The Mays Landing, NJ native (Oakcrest HS) accumulated 14 tackles in the 28-17 victory over California for the only Bowl win in the program's history. His 154 tackles that season ranks third on the Cherry and White all-time list and helped the 10-2 Owls earn a #17 ranking in both major polls. A three-year player in the National Football League, including two with the Philadelphia Eagles (1981, 82), Curcio owned the Owls' single-season record for assisted tackles with 101 as a junior (1978) and ranked seventh on the all-time school list with 332 career tackles at the time.
