VIDEO: Rick Bailey Memorial Turkey Bowl

Fourth annual flag football fundraiser held at MacArthur High School in memory of Wantagh native shot and killed while attending college in Albany.

This past Saturday more than 300 people took part in the fourth annual Rick Bailey Memorial Turkey Bowl flag football tournament held at MacArthur High School in Levittown in memory of a Wantagh native tragically killed three years ago.

Bailey, a former Wantagh resident and MacArthur football player, was shot and killed in October 2008 while attending college at the University at Albany. The Rick Bailey Memorial Turkey Bowl, an annual all-day flag football tournament, was established by friends and family of Bailey and benefits several charitable causes in the MacArthur High School graduate's memory.
