Cozza has also played soccer and basketball during her tenure at MacArthur High School and recently volunteered her time coaching basketball camp at St. Bernard Catholic Church in Levittown. She is a member of the National Honor Society and a school Peer Leader.                 

The senior shortstop Kelleher will continue playing baseball at Seton Hall University in New Jersey. His speed, power and strong arm assisted in MacArthur winning last year’s League AAII Championship and earning a spot in the Nassau County Championship.

Kelleher played football this year as well and holds a second-place school record for rushing (1,377 yards). He had 20 rushing touchdowns, with a total of 22 touchdowns, and scored 132 points, all school records.                   

The district would like to congratulate these athletes on their accomplishments and wish them continued success in the future.
