Winds of change
Steve Petros, a former standout athlete during his days at St. John High School, has made a move.
The 1985 St. John graduate was hired as head varsity girls basketball coach at Fairfield Union High School on May 1.
Petros made the move after a stellar four-year tenure at Lancaster Fisher Catholic High School, where he led the Irish to their first conference championship in 21 years in the 2006-07 season.
He and his wife, Gina, have two children — daughter Maddie and son Ray.
Previously, Petros had been varsity boys basketball coach at Granville and Groveport Madison high schools.
A caveat about his new gig: Fairfield Union’s mascot used to be the Charging Knights. However, a few years ago, it switched to the Falcons.
Why?
Do the acronym.
