Tom Hetrick, the longtime head coach of Central Bucks South’s football team, announced that he will step down after twelve seasons, citing his wife’s recent health diagnosis as the reason for his departure.
During his twelve‑year tenure, Hetrick guided the Titans to eight winning seasons, culminating in a district championship in 2023 and a Suburban One League National Conference title in 2024, a campaign that ended with a school‑record 13‑2 record.
The program will be led next season by assistant coaches Bart Szarko and John Cataldo, who will share the head‑coach responsibilities. Szarko, who founded the school’s football staff in 2004 and later served under Dave Rackovan, brings deep institutional knowledge, while Cataldo adds his own extensive coaching experience.
A New Era Begins
The school community looks forward to building on the foundation laid by Hetrick, hoping the co‑coaching arrangement will continue the tradition of excellence that has defined Central Bucks South football in recent years.
