Ballers And Scholars: Bob Hurley And Shaq At St. Anthony
Basketball hall of fame coach Bob Hurley Sr. and Shaquille O'Neal met yesterday afternoon at St. Anthony High School in Jersey City, NJ where Mr. Hurley has been churning out ballers and scholars for decades.
St. Anthony, a small private Catholic school, boasts a 20 year record of 100% college acceptance among its graduates, 25 state championships and 4 national titles, all while being on the brink of bankruptcy and in a school that has no basketball court. Shaq spent the afternoon with Coach Hurley and the students to show his support for St.Anthony2020, the school's campaign to keep up these impressive stats for the next 20 years.
