| John McGuire
Memorial Scholarship This scholarship was established in
1984 in honor of John McGuire by his family and friends following his
unexpected death. As a coach McGuire was sincere and supportive,
striving to develop well-rounded athletes who tried their hardest in the
classroom as well as on the field. He emphasized the athlete, not the
sport. Applicants for the scholarship are recommended by their coaches
and are judged according to five diverse criteria, which are considered
as a whole. No one criteria has any greater importance. They are –
athletic achievement, as measured against the individual’s ability,
academic accomplishment, financial need, citizenship and character, and
determination to succeed.
