It was earlier this year when Central made the surprise decision to cancel the 2022 varsity football season for a variety of reasons, but mostly revolving around the program’s inability to field a full team in recent years. That culminated in numerous game cancellations, something activities director Aaron Reinhart tries to avoid. Over the intervening months, Reinhart, coach Ben Heitland and others took a long look at the program. While the aforementioned problems are still present, in a turn of events that underscores Reinhart’s commitment to the program, Central decided this past week to field a team and compete in the 2023 football season.
