Our first group back in action since the pandemic hit was the St. Francis football team. This amazing group of talented and resilient kids showed up and put in the work over the course of 12 weeks.
We have worked with all types of kids for the COSP, but this was a special group. Half of the athletes who went through the program have Division 1 offers to play football. It was fun to see what these kids could pull on a rower and throw on a barbell.
Ben Eaton, a long-time member at Industry Athletics, works with these kids every day. It was his connections that allowed us the opportunity to work with these athletes. They were bused over to the gym twice a week to put in the work! If you want to hear more about their story there is an HBO documentary series all about their season – The Cost of Winning. It is well worth the watch.
