NEW YORK (AP) - Former New York City firefighter Tom Masella was defensive coordinator at Louisiana Tech when the World Trade Center was attacked on Sept. 11, 2001. He watched on television and wondered how many old friends were in those buildings.
Like many transplanted New Yorkers, Masella felt a tug to return to his hometown after 9/11.
"I lost quite a few friends," he said. "That was one of the reasons we left Louisiana Tech, we wanted to get closer to home."
