“As a former Steeler, there is a lot of pressure at training camp. Coach Chuck Noll was known for his intense camps – it was hard – and we often practiced twice a day. However, everyone from the maintenance staff and those who serve the meals (just everyone) are the most gracious and hospitable people. They treat me better than I deserve. Saint Vincent exudes faith, family and football; you see the love of Christ. It’s great seeing all the monks and my friends. I love coming here.”

“Training Camp at Saint Vincent reminds me of being back in college and living in a dorm room. I’m from a small town so being here also reminds me of home. There are great people all around campus including the helpers and staff who are nice, polite and take care of you — it makes camp a lot easier. It’s a great place to be and to walk around and clear your mind.”
