FEATURED PHOTO: The dedication of the original Sheehan Field at CBA.
The Dr. George Sheehan Track Event will take place October 18 outdoors at the Lincroft campus of Christian Brothers Academy (CBA) to honor the noted cardiologist and avid runner who was a founder of the school and fostered the winning track program.
Along with the Sheehan family, noted friends of Shore-area running Tim McLoone and Elliott Denman will be guest speakers at the event.
In 1962, the Sheehan Field was dedicated for the fledgling track & field program at CBA. To continue to honor Sheehan’s dedication to the Academy, the planned new track & field complex will bear his name as part of the ongoing Forever CBA Capital Campaign. The new $1.2 million venue will feature an eight-lane track that incorporates a natural grass infield and the most up-to-date safety and performance technology. It will provide enhanced spectator viewing, a new scoreboard and sound system, and a dedicated equipment shed.
