Ray Siegrist Scholarship
Background
This scholarship was established in 2002 to recognize the contributions & commitment of Mr. Ray Siegrist to the coaches and athletes of Bergen County high school athletic programs. As a coach, member of the BCCA Executive Board, and most important, as Executive Treasurer of the BCCA, Ray always demonstrated the BCCA needs to give back to the athletes and coaches wherever and whenever it can. The establishment and growth of the Lou Lanzalotto Scholarship Fund can be directly attributed to his advocacy. Ray knew the importance of first-rate coaching and recognized how superior high school coaches make the difference in budding student athletes. He knew the importance of scholastic sports in developing the positive morals and characteristics needed to be a contributing member of society. In short, he knew the value of high school athletics.
