Jack is one of the more colorful and decorated athletic alumni
in the annals of the College. While at Saint Michael's, he was a
member of the junior varsity basketball team for one season, and
was very involved in the interclass sports (intramurals). However,
he competed and coached independently on an international scale in
the sports of track & field, boxing, rugby, basketball, and
wrestling -- a career that continues to bring accolades at the time
of his induction -- 44 years after his graduation from Saint
Michael's! The long list of athletic achievements Jack has garnered
includes: eight-time New York Athletic Club Boxing Champion,
Decathlon Champion (US Army, Europe, 1955), and Eastern US AAU
Decathlon Champion. Jack has coached championship teams in
wrestling, track & field, boxing, basketball, rugby, and field
hockey at nine different universities in the United States and
Europe.
