/in /by

LEETONIA OH- It’s a new era inside Leetonia boys basketball. Guy Costello takes the reigns of the Bears this season. He is going to try to turn a competitive team into a team that knows how a win. It starts with culture. A winning type of culture that helps you make clutch plays down the stretch. Coach Costello knows it’s going to be a challenge to establish a culture in his first year, but is sure his team will be one that is disciplined, and high in effort. The hope is that will transfer into wins on the floor.

Coach Costello took the time to come on to YSN’s Running Point to help us preview the Bears season. He talks about players returning, creating a culture, and much more. Join Ty Bartell, and Anthony Hartwig as they dive in to Leetonia boys basketball with Episode 1 of Coach’s Corner with Guy Costello.
