Fox Chapel JV football
It has been one year since Coach Bryan Deal took the rein of Foxes Football. The familiarity gained, from learning the playbook and coaches’ expectations to working through the off-season conditioning program, may have laid a foundation that will pay off in seasons ahead, if not immediately. Deal says, “We know them and they know us.” That established rapport was even obvious in the midst of a sun-soaked demanding drill-drenched camp. “We had a great first week,” reports Deal. “I’m very pleased with where we are right now. We made some nice strides.”

Those strides will be needed to make up for the loss of 16 seniors from last year. The coaching staff has already gone after that and rolled in a freshman group to buttress the varsity and JV. Deal says in the long run it will enable them to swap units from the JV and Varsity, and thus be more competitive.

Friday Night Factors: Seniors: John Sasson, LB, 4-yr starter; Terry Hartford, CORNR; Steve Sliger, defensive end/offensive line; Alex Malyszka, free safety; Steve Smith, corner, defensive end; Dave Papich, outside LB; Junior: Joe Donahoe, QB.
