On March 24, 2007, McGlone (who attended Ridley High School) played in front of his hometown crowd versus the Philadelphia Wings. In honor of high school teammate, Nick Colleluori, who died from non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in November 2006, McGlone donated his game salary to the Headstrong Foundation for Cancer Research.[8] Colleluori, who attended Hofstra University, was also honored by Blake Miller of the New York Titans earlier in the season.
