2008 Holy Cross Football ~ Home of the Crusaders
Offensive Lineman Joe Brown named Captain
Waterbury- Current Junior Offensive Lineman Joseph Brown was named Co-Captain for the 2008 Football Season at Holy Cross. Brown has been a two-year starter at Offensive Tackle for the Crusaders and will lead a very experienced group on the Offensive Line this fall. Brown's leadership in the weightroom during the off-season thus far, as well as his leadership in the classroom made it an easy decision for Head Coach Mike Phelan.
Academically, Joe has established himself as one of the top Students for the Class of 2009. Brown is enrolled entirely in AP Classes and has been named to the All-NVL Academic Team for the Spring Season as part of the Track & Field program. Brown's GPA is a 96.48 over his three years on Oronoke Road and he was recently inducted into the Holy Cross Chapter of the National Honor Society in May.
Athletically, Joe will help lead the Crusaders in 2008 as they open up with the Crosby Bulldogs on Friday September 12th at Jimmy Lee Stadium for a 7:00pm kickoff. Brown will lead a very experienced group on the Offensive Line that returns 4 starters from the 2007 season which finished 7-3 and missed the playoffs by one game (a 21-20 loss to Woodland in week 6).
Offensive Lineman Joe Brown (77) has been named a Co-Captain for the 2008 Football Season at Holy Cross. Brown will lead a very experienced Offensive Line during the upcoming season.
