New Irish Coach Rebuilds St Patrick's Backfield Durability Emphasized
St Patrick's enters 1972 under head coach Chuck Perone who shifts from basketball to football duties with Junior Alvarez assisting. The Irish, coming off a 5-3-1 season and seven graduated seniors, will lean on junior Tony Grothe at quarterback and a durable backfield. The team plans a balanced I-formation attack with speed-focused line play and several lettermen returning, as 26 squad members train toward a Sept. opener at Lyman and a home game slate starting Sept. 16 versus Dix.
