PHILIP SPANO

Philip Spano has been a participant at The First Tee of Metropolitan New York for six years and has progressed through the Life Skills Experience, achieving Eagle-level certification. He is currently entering his sophomore year at Manhattan College’s School of Engineering with a concentration in Mechanical Engineering. Due to his enjoyment of golf, he is currently a camp counselor for a summer golf program at Mosholu Golf Course in The Bronx, N.Y. He says The First Tee has been a great influence on his life, and the life skills incorporated in the program have made him realize that he has an obligation to give to society. That is why he volunteers at the New York Botanical Gardens Children’s Gardening Program as well as the Reading Excellence and Discovery (READ) Program. He has always had an interest in many other sports in addition to golf. An avid Yankee fan and New York Giants fan, Philip loves going to these games and enjoys watching them on TV with his two brothers and his father, who share the same enthusiasm for sports. Aside from sports, he enjoys music and loves to attend concerts as well as play the piano.

JNews: Colantonio, Tracey [MC2010] plays with her high school team

Cheshire Soccer Players Near End Of College Careers
August 20, 2009 by Greg Lederer

*** begin quote ***

The class of 2006 made a lasting impact on the Cheshire High School girls’ soccer program. Cheshire had never won a Housatonic Division, Southern Connecticut Conference, or Class LL championship until the deep group of 12 players came into their own as sophomores. They earned multiple all-star selections en route to becoming the first class to graduate with two state titles.

“That was awesome,” said mid-fielder Tracey Colantonio, a 2005 captain with Lauren Olsen and Jackie Fede. “Our class had that friendship on and off the field. It was amazing to change the program as a group.”

Their chemistry was evident when five classmates came back together this summer. Colantonio (Manhattan College-Riverdale, New York), along with Fede (University of Rhode Island-Kingston), Olsen (Trinity College), Erin Conrod (Southern Connecticut State University), and Kelly Murnane (Western New England-Springfield, Mass.) rejoined 2007 graduate Lauren Nowakowski (Fordham University-Bronx, New York) on the South Central Premier League U-23 team.

Tufts Runner Wins ‘Strides’
By Jack Graves

*** begin quote ***

Sarah Adams of Quogue and Valley Stream, whose late father, Dr. George Sheehan, did much to popularize long-distance running in this country, said she had gone in search of her father’s Manhattan College teammate, Andy Neidnig, in Sag Harbor around the time of his 90th birthday last month, but had missed him at the Blue Sky restaurant and bar to which he is said to repair daily at 4.

She was glad to hear that, following Ellen’s Run, Neidnig had said his legs seemed to want to run again.

JEmail: McEneney, Mike (MC1953) recommends the Annual Retreat

Posted on August 26, 2009 by | Comments Off

To: Jasperfjohn68
Subject: A Special Men’s Retreat Weekend

Dear John,

   It is hard to believe that another year has gone by, and it is time for the Annual Retreat in Riverdale! I know that you are usually committed on weekends, but if that should change we would be delighted to have you join with us on the Weekend. The attached email is being sent to all men alumni in the tri-state area. This promises to be not only a great time for spiritual renewal, but also a good networking opportunity. It would be helpful if you could include the notice in the next edition of Jasper Jottings.

   Thanks for all you help as usual.

   Mike

[JR: You're correct one whole day on the weekend belongs to my Mom. That's her week in a single day. Of course, I've already pushed it on the blog and it'll be in next week.]

For the past 18 years, a group of dedicated Manhattan College alumni have sponsored a men’s retreat at the Passionist Center in the Bronx. Our goal has been to provide a retreat sanctuary for Catholic Christian men of faith to help reflect and prepare for the work and mission God has in store for each of us. This year’s retreat theme is Dignity. The present challenges in our society make this a timely topic. We have arranged a compelling slate of speakers who will share their thoughts and wisdom on dignity. Attendees can expect to hear and learn many wonderful lessons on how dignity can help navigate the difficult challenges of life. You will come away refreshed, inspired, and with a clarity of purpose for your role as a Christian man. This retreat will provide you with a wonderful 36 hours sacred reflection. At the same time, you will meet many other fabulous men looking for special motivation in preparation for “Monday morning” and the challenges of life. We provide private rooms for each retreatant, delicious meals (we can accommodate special dietary requirements), and the placid environment on the beautiful grounds overlooking the Hudson River that lends itself to discussion and personal renewal.
We invite you to come and experience this wonderful retreat. Contact the following retreat team members for more information:
Owen McKeon ’60
Ed McEneney ’59
Kevin Muller ’82

This weeks Bio is on a crafty leftie that hails from Merrick, N.Y.. Justin Otto is a great guy who truly lives the “Lax or Die Lifestyle” Check out Topside Lacrosse. A few weeks back he was sidelined with a dislocated elbow; now with that being said a lot of players would pack it in and just let the summer go by and enjoy it. Otto on the other hand is not that kind of person. He worked back to getting on the floor and sniping goals with the best of them.

Otto played his high school lacrosse at Chaminade and then moved on the DI ranks of Manhattan College, where he was one of the leading goal-scorers for all four years. While beasting it on the lax field Otto majored in Civil Engineering and also minored in Mathematics. One really great thing I like about Otto is he is really pushing to get indoor lacrosse in the New York scene. Don’t be surprised to find a league or two pop up, then you will know who to thank. Until next time boys and girls, Cheers.
