Valley students among 10 duct-tape finalists

NEW SPRINGFIELD

A dress and tux that cost about $100 to create could yield $3,000 for the local teens who wore them.

Sara Cummings of Springfield and James Ludt of Struthers wore duct-tape attire to Cardinal Mooney High School’s prom May 14 and are now one of the top- 10 finalists in the 10th annual Stuck at Prom scholarship contest sponsored by Duck Tape. They were selected by the company out of 248 couples.

The Stuck at Prom contest begins Friday, and individuals can cast their vote for their favorite duct-tape outfits at www.duckbrand.com/Promotions/stuck-at-prom.aspx.
