This week on 'Valley Sports Rewind,' host Mike Cannici sits down with former Ansonia Mayor James Della Volpe -- but they're not talking local politics.

Instead, Della Volpe reflects upon his nearly 40-years with Ansonia athletics -- specifically the football program.

Click play to hear Della Volpe talk about his friendships with fellow coaches Jack Hunt, John Sponheimer, Robert Lisi and Bill McAllister.

'Valley Sports Rewind' can also be heard on iTunes, Libsyn and it airs Mondays at 1 p.m. on WNHH, 103.5 FM within the City of New Haven.
