"Coach Joe Cathcart was my first football coach. He instilled in me a great love for this game I have been blessed to play for 24 years. He taught me the two most important things about football, have fun and be tough. Two things I carry with me today and hope to share with my kids as they begin sports. He is a CYO legend and always will be."
-Jack Doyle
