Joe Namath's High School Coach Dies

by Jeff Fisher
Pennsylvania High School Football Huddle

The headline says that he was Joe Namath's high school coach, but Larry Bruno was much more.

Bruno, who died on Christmas Eve, led Beaver Falls to a position of power in the WPIAL from 1959 to 1978.  In 20 years at the school, Bruno was 184-52-9, including a WPIAL Class AA championship in 1960...Namath was the quarterback of that 10-0 team.

Bruno, who also the head coach at Monaca for 10 years, was 88 years old.
