Part I of a series of videos focusing on Cardinal Gibbons athletics' mission, program culture, and legacy-building initiatives. What will be your legacy? For it to be an enduring one, it should not, and cannot be a legacy focused solely on winning or personal triumph. Our program is about more than winning championships. It’s about love...it’s about how well we’ve used the talents and gifts that we have been blessed to receive. It’s our mission.

Sitting in the Main Lobby on Friday of Spirit Week is to be amazed and overwhelmed by a whirlwind of activity and the many leaders and volunteers getting ready for an exciting start to Homecoming Weekend. There is a palpable excitement and energy in the air, and the complexity of so many large events, all hosted within the span of a few hours, is enough to make your head spin. What I’m thinking about today, is the remarkable and generous spirit of those who make today possible.
Athletics at Gibbons is a formational experience for students and parents and success is measured by how well our programs further the mission of our school.
