One of the great highlights of the weekend was having our
good friend, Father Richard LaMorte, with us at the MAAC Championships. Padre
has retired from Marist, but he remains a friend to us and to our program. He
was able to coordinate some family travel around our championships, and we were
grateful to have him along for the ride. On Sunday morning, after the team’s
long run and as we were preparing to check out, he offered to say a Mass for
some of our athletes. We gathered on the lawn outside of our hotel rooms, sat
on towels (the grass was still wet with morning dew) and Padre said Mass for us.
Again, it was great having him with us for the weekend, and we are hopeful he
will attend other meets in the coming seasons.
