Tradition... The Casey Tradition...
Monsignor Joseph T.
Casey, a retired Rear Admiral in the Navy and the Director of Red Bank Catholic
High School, used his own naval pension to buy uniforms and equipment for his sports
teams in the early 1940's. Our Teams have worn his name well.
The Caseys won a state football championship in
1946. The baseball team reached the same pinnacle in 1947, and the boys
basketball team hit the record books in 1950.
And a tradition was born.
Red Bank Catholic teams continue to carry on this great tradition.
The girls gymnastics teams have won the most
overall team championships in the state. The girls tennis teams are leaders in
state team championship titles and the girls cross country teams are tied for
this honor.
In fact RBC’s 121Shore Conference Divisional
Championships, 23Overall Conference Championships, 81State Titles and 15
Overall State Titles led the local press to dub the school “Titletown.”
“Titletown”…Monsignor Casey would be proud. He
would also be proud that a school warranting such accolades not only offers 23
sports including ice hockey, lacrosse, golf and swimming but also includes
three levels for many teams and non-cut sports every season.
Every student can aspire to be part of the
“Casey Tradition.” Every student who does is better for having been a part of
that tradition.
