“(Being Mormon at a Catholic school) helped me stay grounded in who I am,” says Matt Marcantano, the star quarterback and lacrosse player at Catholic Memorial. “It helped me remember who I am and strengthened my identity.”
Matt Marcantano stands out on the football field.
With a rocket of an arm and a talented corps of wide receivers, Catholic Memorial’s senior quarterback executes a pass-heavy offense that is unlike many of his opponents’. Marcantano also doesn’t mind scrambling, using his legs to gain yards when his targets are covered.
Marcantano stands out at school as well, but not just because he is a two-sport student-athlete (he’s also a leader on the lacrosse field). He stands out because he’s Mormon.
