Brian Smolley Memorial

"Hardrock Award"

The Hardrock is awarded to the player who exemplifies what a St. Joseph High School football player represents.  The recipient is an athlete who through his actions, attitudes and leadership, exhibits "Knight Pride" each and every down, each and every day.

The Hardrock award is dedicated to Brian Smolley, who graduated from St. Joseph High School in 1977, and who spent his fall days playing football for the Green and White.  Brian lived his life like he played football - full speed and with great enthusiasm.  Brian was taken from us physically in early 1992, but his spirit lives on in each Knight Football Team as it takes to the field to do battle.
