During the Jan. 23 meeting of the Levittown Board of Education, the district’s trustees and administrators congratulated a number of MacArthur High School coaches and students for individual and group achievements during the fall season.  

Coach Robert Fehrenbach introduced three football players who stood out for their exceptional talents. Joe Tangredi was the recipient of the Piner Award, which recognizes the best linebacker in Nassau County. Anthony DeNunzio (defense) and Thomas Kelleher (offense) were also designated as Newsday All-Long Island First Team players.

The entire football team was also recognized for the friendship bestowed on fellow MacArthur student Brendan Gallagher. Brendan’s commitment to the team was the inspiration for his designation as an honorary player.   

The Board also announced that Fehrenbach was named Nassau County Football Conference Coach of the year. Coach Andrew Atkins was recognized as Nassau County Boys Soccer Conference Coach of the Year, while coach Howard Greenblatt was introduced as an inductee into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.     

The district congratulates these outstanding student-athletes and coaches for their accomplishments.
