Players make trash sweep; dent Coach Young's truck
MAR 7, 2012
The Greer football players made a clean sweep of surrounding roads Tuesday afternoon and also made a dent in Head Football Coach Will Young's truck.
The tradition at the end of the cleanup sweep is for the athletes to unload the bags of trash in front of the Greer High School sign for a group photo. Young thought it was best to keep the bags in his truck so he could unload the players' haul. He parked the truck in front of the sign and encouraged the players to pile on while he shot video.
