“Lords of the Rings”: Stepinac football championship ring ceremony

Friday evening there was a very nice event held in the Stepinac Chapel to an overflow crowd of players and family members. And of course, then down to the cafeteria for a nosh. Fr. Collins, the President of Stepinac spoke briefly and wisely at the Chapel – most important line being “don’t give the ring to a girlfriend” and then head coach Mike O’Donnell called each player up for their ring.

Here’s Brigid having a look at Tim’s as everyone exited the Chapel.

Brigid took this “Lords of the Ring” shot! Pretty cool. (Tim had forgotten his jersey). The rings are pretty big.

And here’s Brigid with head coach O’D. In the cafeteria he addressed the crowd quite emotionally, talking about the boys, their accomplishments and their futures.

For size comparison, Brigid is 5 feet tall and was wearing 2 inch heels. She weighs about 105 lbs.

It was really a lovely evening.
