JOHNSTOWN, CAMBRIA COUNTY--- The games are underway in Johnstown as athletes compete in the Special Olympic Winter Games.

Gregory Senkbeil is training hard with 'Coach Laura." This year he is competing to a song he hopes will help bring him as much luck as it did his favorite football team.

"The Ravens, they really earned that win," said Senkbeil.  "The NFL Theme song."

"Seeing the joy this brings to the athletes because they've worked so hard to be here is the best part," said Laura Benesch, Senkbeil's coach.  "They do such an amazing job."

Gregory and Laura have spent months practicing for the Olympics.  This year they are using one secret weapon.

"Just to have fun," said Benesch.
