FINWOOD ON BEARD " BRIAN IS A HARD NOSED GREAT COMPETITOR WHO IS THE SON OF FORMER MONARCH STANDOUT JEFF BEARD. BRIAN WAS A BIG PART OF GREAT BRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL'S STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM LAST YEAR. HE IS A BIG STRONG KID AND IS VERY VERSATILE. WE THINK BRIAN CAN PLAY OUTFIELD AND CORNER INFIELD AS WELL. BRIAN IS ALSO THE QUARTERBACK ON THE GREAT BRIDGE FOOTBALL TEAM."
