12/22 EVENT: Sachem Takes Down Cancer

The Sachem wrestling programs will hold their annual Sachem Takes Down Cancer meet Thursday, December 22 at 6 p.m. in the main gym.

As many of you know, this meet is held annually to honor one of Sachem East’s finest alum’s, Paul DiIorio, who lost his battle with cancer.

Paul was the epitome of student-athlete and his passing was a terrible loss to the Sachem community. Paul’s brother Chris is currently a TA and assistant football and wrestling coach at Sachem East, Paul’s mom, Jeanette, is a Sachem clerical worker.

Unfortunately, the family is still saddled with Paul’s student loan debt incurred while he was earning his college degree. The proceeds from our admission and concession will go directly to the DiIorio family to help with this burden.
