Reviews "There's high school football- then, there's REAL high school football. Newark Catholic embraces what high school football embodies. I've been a huge fan of the program for many years and Bill's book shows what it takes to make a championship program and the dedication that's required to be #1." George Lehner Sports Director 610 WTVN Radio, Columbus, Ohio "Outstanding! I was captivated with each chapter and lost a lot of sleep reading late into the night." -Joe Bell New Albany, Oh "I've never read a book that was so graphic with it's descriptions of each football play. It should certainly be a help to those who may not understand the sport of football." -Frances Keck Newark, Oh "Inspirational. I felt like I was there watching the games and it made me want to stand up and cheer for the team." -Donna Fleig Leetsdale, PA "The book does an excellent job of capturing Coach Graham's language and tone. I couldn't put it down and was often up reading until 2 a.m." -Tim McKenna Newark, Ohio "Growing Up Green is a very pleasurable trip through Americana. The game to game replay is very detailed and the insights into the coaches and players is superb. It's football's answer to "Hoosiers!" -Robert Greismer Concord, Ohio "The book was fantastic! I was laughing uncontrollably and my wife was wondering what was wrong with me." -Albert Ghiloni Newark, Ohio "This is a must read for all fans of the old Licking County League. It brought back many great memories. Bill shows his great love for Newark Catholic and Newark Catholic football." -Wes Poth Assistant Varsity Football Coach, Newark Catholic High School
