ROSTER It’s a baking hot mid-July evening and Greensburg Central Catholic football players are running sprints, pulling sleds up a hillside and catching deep passes. Conditioning was ramped up in Carbon under first-year coach Aaron Smetanka and his young staff. They turned up the heat. Smetanka, a former standout quarterbackatSt. Vincent and in the Continental Indoor Football League, wanted his players in shape before training camp. Smetanka didn’t just change the helmet logo from the old Georgia and Green Bay Packers “G” to the Centurion figure profile, he has reenergized the program. “These kids aren’t used to this,” said Smetanka, 29, a former assistant at Chartiers Valley, Peters Township and St. Vincent. “We’reonWeek 24 already (in July). We’ve been running and lifting. Conditioning was one of the main things I promised inmyinterview. A lot of the parents and kids were a little surprised by how much we’ve done. But they have shown up and put in the time.” GCC went 2-8 last season and missed the postseason in Dan Mahoney’s fifthand final CONTINUED · 31 adno=6491821 Wishing All Students A Successful Athletic & Academic Year Greensburg Central Catholic High School “Our mission is to empower all students with the necessary knowledge and values to succeed in our global economy” www.gchs.org 911 Armory Drive, Greensburg PA, 15601 • 724-834-0310
