The Ticket of a Lifetime!

     The Paramus Catholic Paladins marched into Metlife Stadium Friday evening in front of over 9,000 fans to compete against The Crusaders of Bergen Catholic. The Paladins and Crusaders have been long time football rivals. The Paladins' loss to the Crusaders on Thanksgiving day made the Paladins push even harder for the victory that they strongly felt they deserved. At halftime the Paladins had a 
21-14 lead. The game saw the fourth quarter tied at 21-21. The Crusaders took the lead at 21-28. The Paladins knew they had to push in order to win. The 22 yard run by Keyon Washington made the Paladins more motivated as they also completed a 2 point conversion. Steve Shanley threw a 55 yard pass to Tyrone Washington in order to secure the lead with 1:16 left in the game. The final score was 37-34. Both the Paladins and Crusader fans witnessed one of the most competitive games to date.      
     This is the first time the Paladins have won the state title since the 1997 matchup against Delbarton. It is on that team where the now Paladin coach Coach Partridge was a senior player.
      Great job boys. All of the Paramus Catholic family and friends are extremely proud of your grace and spirit!

Associate Principal Ms. Macaluso, Dean of Students Ms. Scarano, and thousands of others of the Paramus Catholic family did not feel the cold or rain, just the presence of mutual respect and admiration for our very own Paladins!
Congratulations to the entire student body of PC.

We are all winners!
