Here is what has been going on at Marist
Marist Baseball was top story of 2012

Perhaps no team in Hudson County championed the never-say-die spirit more than the Marist baseball team in 2012.

 

The Royal Knights capped an unforgettable run through the postseason with a stunning 11-10 victory over Newark Academy in the NJSIAA Non-Public B championship game in June. Marist rallied from four runs down in the bottom of the seventh inning as Tim Rodriguez delivered a walk-off single that gave the Bayonne Catholic school its first state title since 1991.

 

Posters filled the hallways, signup sheets hung on classroom walls and "Bloody" the Blood Drop roamed the school. The Red Cross Club took extra care this year to get students excited for the blood drive. On December 7, the group's hard work paid off.
 

Marist Varsity and JV boys bowling team brought home a victory against Snyder High School on the December 17, 2012 with JV winning three out of three games and varsity winning two out of three.  Both wins were the result of both teams giving it their all.
