My overall experience at Bridgewater East was one of great gratitude.We had a great Superintendent in Dr. Harmon Wade, principal Dr. Stanley Godleski, and Athletic Director, Joe Porcaro who was the very best.

Our coaching staff of Vince Bodino, Bill Apsley, Jim Norton, Joe Panzarella, Ed Ginty, Dennis Gates, Dave Adam, John Gara and Bob Powell. The coaches were extremely loyal and dedicated to our football program.

Our athletes were extremely dedicated and disciplined to compete with their very best effort at all times. God has truly blessed me to be a part of such a great experience in my life.

Coach Greiner was not only a great Coach,
he was a great man and teacher.

I’ll never forget the basics that hard work pays off,
as well as other life lessons Coach taught us.
Bruce Hennemuth on Coach Greiner

Coach Greiner was very influential in my life. He assembled a remarkable staff that were all on the same page. Hard work and discipline were strongly "encouraged"! It is hard to get up for every game - we had a few games that might have gone the other way if it wasn't for Coach's emotion and motivational skills.

Coach was always approachable and had a great sense of humor - he loved to joke around and poke fun at everyone. He could laugh at himself as well. I would say that he is one of the most balanced people I have met, mixing a strong work ethic with a desire to win while enjoying life and family.
