TOM CROTTY CLASSIC

NAPLES SOCIAL

The “Tom Crotty Classic” is an annual basketball tournament held in honor of Tom Crotty, Maria Regina Class of 1977. Games are held yearly to commemorate and celebrate the life of Tom Crotty, who was tragically killed during the September 11th attacks. Tom Crotty’s biggest love was basketball, and he earned “All Long Island” status while playing for Maria Regina. Tom went on to play basketball for four years at Marist College (Class of 1981). Each year the tournament is held in his honor. Many of his teammates and other fellow Maria Regina alumni come to enjoy the games and catch up with one another. Following the tournament, the Maria Regina alumni, along with the Kellenberg Varsity Basketball Team and their families, are invited to a reception in the Millennium Room.

On Tuesday, March 1, 2016, Father Philip Eichner and Brother Kenneth Hoagland hosted an evening of Winter Cocktails at the home of BRIAN and LINDA TALBOT (KMHS Alumni Parents), for alumni and alumni parents from both Kellenberg Memorial High School and Maria Regina High School. Alumni from Maria Regina living in the Naples area had a chance to share stories and memories with Father Philip and Brother Kenneth. Future socials will also be planned, so please be sure to update the KMHS Alumni Office at Alumni@Kellenberg.org, with your current address so we don’t miss you!
