Pennsylvania High School Football Huddle
Last week, I was writing about how a youthful Pius X football team was struggling to find its mark after an 0-3 start. Today, I'm happy to say that Friday night's big 62-36 win over arch-rival Marian Catholic has ignited first-year head coach Phil Stambaugh's team as it gets ready for Saturday's game against Bucktail.
It will be Hall of Fame Day in Roseto tomorrow when the school inducts former players Shawn Brice (Class of 2005) and Quintin Lopez (Class of 2006) into the Pius X High School Athletic Hall of Fame along with the entire 1966 football team.
Tomorrow will also mark Pius' first league game in a decade. This year, the smallest football team in Pennsylvania, became members of the All-American Conference after playing the past decade as an independent and traveling thousands of miles to find games.
Check-out the video below to hear what Coach Stambaugh had to say about the turnaround in practice this week. Plus, for all of the video from my season-long documentary on the team and the community, go to High School Football America.
