Players Score Third Place Finish in Scotia Combine
Johnstown High School placed third overall in
the fourth annual Scotia Combine held during the second

Faster, Stronger" program and are committed to strength
training two days per week, some of the teams have
committed to more. Pictured are Johnstown athletes who
are part of the school's football team and who have been
putting in time off-season in order to help themselves
and the program improve. Congratulation to these young
men for working hard and making the combine and good
