Alumni Celebrate Brother Martin’s 50th Homecoming!

On November 2, members of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart Alumni Association and guests joined together in true Crusader spirit for the 2018 Homecoming Tailgate and Game vs. the Jesuit Blue Jays. The Crusaders took home an exciting, district win by a score of 16-8. Prior to the game, an alumni tailgate celebration was in full swing. The Student Ambassadors, under the direction of Alex Becnel ’08 and Michael Cappo ’00, served the alumni, families, and friends refreshments such as Pepsi products and food provided by our very own Culinary Crusaders. Pat Barbaro ’85 provided music for all of our guests and alumni from St. Aloysius, Cor Jesu, and Brother Martin.

Before kick-off, the cheerleaders, NJROTC Armed Drill Team, the Drumline, and the Crusader Band entertained guests with special performances. Stephen Lewis ’03 also announced the members of the 2018 Homecoming Court with their student escorts. Then, alumni football players from the 1983 and 2008 District Champions were honored. Also, the 1993 and 1998 Cross Country State Championship teams, as well as the 1973 and 1979 teams, were recognized as they celebrated their district championship anniversaries. The captains of the 1968 St. Aloysius & Cor Jesu teams, Mike Serio ’69 CJ, Oswald Laporte ’69 CJ, Russ Popara ’69 CJ, and Keith Steger ’69 SA served as honorary captains for their 50-year anniversary. The spirited fans watched the Crusaders take a 3-0 lead into halftime.

During Halftime, Miss Jordyn Prattini was named the 2018 Homecoming Queen and Alumni Board President Dr. Leni Sumich ’90 presented her crown. Tommy Clapp ’83, Billy Davis ’88, John Rigney ’84, Jeff Messina ’81, Lance Ranlett ’91, Kevin Mulligan ’91, and Dr. Parker Velargo ’00 served as alumni escorts.

After the Crusader victory, alumni and guests continued their celebration at the annual Lettermen Reunion at Lakeview Harbor. Friends gathered and reminisced about their days in football, cross country, cheerleading, swimming, and NJROTC.

Thank you to all alumni for supporting Homecoming 2018!
