EMOTIONAL SEASON COMES TO A CLOSE
Nutrition, wellness business cuts the ribbon
The 2021-2022 season was a trying one for the Berlin High School boys basketballl team. Beloved coach Mike Veneziano succumbed to cancer on Dec. 15 at the age of 53, and was replaced by Stan Glowiak. “Mike was here right until the end,” Glowiak stated back in January. “What a fighter. He battled. He was here right until that first scrimmage (this season). He sat, and picked the starters. He was doing the subs, I was doing the coaching on the floor. So he was with the kids right until the end.” While the Redcoats could be forgiven for floundering this winter, that didn’t happen at all. See story on page 2.
