The 1964 Football Team
In order to fully appreciate the success of the Georgetown Prep 1964 football team, it is essential to recall the position of the team in the early “Fegan Era” of Prep football. Head Coach Jim Fegan was hired by Prep’s Rector in 1961 to revitalize the football program and return it to the tradition of success and respect it had enjoyed in prior years. Coach Fegan and his assistant coaches turned Prep’s football fortunes around in his second year as head coach. The 1962 Varsity Football team, a Prep Athletic Hall of Fame team, went undefeated and won Prep’s first IAC Championship. With many players returning from the 1962 team, the 1963 team also achieved success and shared the IAC Co-Championship.

When football camp opened in 1964, Coach Fegan was faced with replacing thirteen starters, including the starting senior quarterback who left Prep during the summer. Coach Fegan and his staff clearly had their work cut out for them, but they soon discovered there were many talented players. Coach Fegan realized they would be able to replace the players lost to graduation and that he had the talent needed to field another excellent team.

The season started on a high note, but there were immediate critical losses created by injuries to key players. And while the 1964 football team may not have possessed the level of individual talent or the size of players on previous teams, the team had many intangibles that more than made up for their limitations. It was a team characterized by a commitment to excellence, unity of purpose, discipline, camaraderie, humility and respect.

The returning starters and those who stepped up to replace the players lost through graduation or injuries carried on the tradition of success which Coach Fegan’s teams had achieved in the preceding two seasons. The 1964 football team won all seven games, including a 20-0 defeat of archrival Landon in the final game of the season to win Prep’s second outright IAC Championship in three years. The team outscored its opponents 156-27, holding four opponents scoreless and ended the season ranked 4th in The Washington Post final metropolitan area high school rankings.

The 1988, 1989 & 1990 Baseball Teams
IAC Champions 3 Consecutive Seasons
In the spring of 1988, Georgetown Prep Varsity Baseball coaches Pete White and Steve Smith embarked on a journey together with a group of talented student athletes. Over the next three baseball seasons, 1988, 1989 and 1990, for the first time in Prep history, the team won consecutive IAC Baseball titles in a dominating fashion.

Georgetown Prep had great success on the baseball field; however, their great character and positive spirit shone bright throughout the entire Prep community. This talented group of young men instilled their positive attitude in all aspects of life. These student athletes made those around them better and they worked to be their best on and off the field.

Coach White and Coach Smith excelled in their work. In an old-school fashion they encouraged, challenged, and supported each and every one of their players. They loved these young men. In return, their players made a statement:

• 3-year record: 50 wins vs. 8 losses 11 All-IAC Players
• 9 All-County Players
• 7 All-Met Players

This statement, along with the way they respected and honored the great game of baseball, is the catalyst for their induction as a team to the Georgetown Prep Athletic Hall of Fame.

The 2005 Rugby Team
In the spring of 1998, Georgetown Prep made a decision to add rugby as a new sport to the traditional spring line up. For many or most at Prep, they had only seen rugby played at the college level or on television. It isn’t an American sport and many in our community were not familiar with rugby. Since tackling was included, many thought it was similar to football. They couldn’t grasp the concept that you would tackle someone without equipment. Everyone talked about safety and injuries.

However, a number of alumni who had played the game during college passionately encouraged our community to embrace this opportunity. Their love for the game was contagious, so our community decided that rugby would provide an educational experience that would enhance our young participants.
As we began the program at Prep, we learned very quickly that our young men enjoyed every aspect of the sport. More importantly, serving Prep’s emphasis on getting every student involved in some physical activity, rugby attracted a part of our student population that wasn’t playing a spring sport at the time.

Thankfully, we had a group of young men who took the leap of faith and changed the landscape of spring sports. Our coaching staff was eager and energized. These enthusiastic coaches and young men started a tradition. The tradition of rugby!

We induct the 2005 Georgetown Prep Rugby Team as a beacon of trailblazing spirit and for their great achievement of convincingly winning the 2005 Potomac Rugby Union Division Two Championship.

As we induct the 2005 Championship team into the Hall of Fame, rugby continues to thrive at Prep presently fielding three teams. Prep has over 75 rugby players, and the team experienced a successful Spring Break trip to Scotland in March 2022.

We are grateful for these players and coaches for their actions in spreading the life changing culture of rugby.

Buddy also starred for Mr. Coupe's new track team, revived after a 10-year hiatus, and won medals for the 100 yard dash and (improbably) the shot put, but football was Buddy's sport. His scat back skills and cannon arm made him the ideal option quarterback. Buddy also excelled at defensive back and kick returner. He was selected as team captain and finished his senior season as the top gridiron scorer among private high schools in the area. He was a media selection to the All-Prep first team and was awarded the Mike McDonald Trophy as the Little Hoyas' best player for the 1942 football season. Father Bernard Kirby, longtime Prep Jesuit and athletic director at the time, was quoted in The Washington Star as calling Buddy, "one of the best, if not the best back" to play for Prep during that era. After service in the war and still undersized, Buddy played quarterback for Georgetown University before injuries ended his promising career.

Ben Decker ’41 (d.)
Ben starred in three sports during his athletic career at Prep. He was a hard-nosed running back on the football team, a dominating forward on the basketball team, and a strong-armed catcher on the baseball team. In addition, he was an outstanding swimmer as evidenced by his New Jersey state title in the 50 yard freestyle. In 1939, Ben was selected as the most outstanding athlete at Prep.

1970 Soccer Team
The 1970 team was a mixture of skill, talent and good athletes. Half of the team members were resident students--Prep’s Latin American connection. This group made up a front line that scored 35 goals during the season, an average of 2.5 goals per game. The stars on that team were: Chico DeLaGuardia from Panama, Terry McCarthy from Argentina, Enrique Lewis from Mexico, and Peter MacLellan from South Boston. The other half was a mixture of local students that had some soccer in their past and others who just wanted to play another sport. The 1970 Prep soccer team compiled a 12-0-2 record, allowed only 0.7 goals per game, won the IAC Title, and was ranked No. 1 in the Washington, D.C. area. Five players from the team were named to the All-Met team. Forward Chico DeLaGuardia and goalie Casey Aiken were honored as the Outstanding Offensive and Defensive Players, respectively. What was the difference? The 1970 team had a great coach for the second year in a row, Ron Sotak. An insurance salesman, Coach Sotak commuted from Prince George’s County every afternoon just to coach at Prep.

Tony Carroll ’57
Tony played basketball for four years and was a starter his last three years. He was selected “All-Catholic” for three years and played in the All Prep/All High game three years.

Tony came back to coach the varsity basketball team at Prep from 1966-1969. In the 1966-67 season, he coached the team to a 20-3 record. He often cited Kevin Byrd’s “clutch last second shot” in an overtime win against Landon as the highlight of his Prep career. Co-captains Greg Gannon and Phil O’Donoghue were alter boys at Tony and Judy’s wedding in 1967.

1962 Football Team
The 1962 Football Team was known as “The Team That Did The Job” during Coach Jim Fegan’s second year at Prep. His first Prep team broke even (3 wins, 3 losses and 2 ties) and the year before his arrival, Prep’s football team didn’t score a point in the league! Only 22 players came to football camp in 1962; if anyone got hurt they couldn’t scrimmage (manager Paul Chiu often filled in holding a blocking dummy). Light of numbers but large of heart, the 1962 squad went undefeated including a 20-6 win over Landon at the end of the season. It was Prep’s first undefeated football team, first IAC football championship, and Coach Fegan earned his first Coach of the Year award. The ’62 team ended the season ranked No. 6 in the Washington Post and scored 229 points while allowing only 24 points all season. Most importantly, the “Turnaround Team” ended Prep’s losing tradition and began the Fegan Era. This legacy continues today with one of Coach Fegan’s former players and current Prep football coach, Dan Paro ’79.

Rev. Thomas J. Dugan, S.J. (d.)
Father Dugan was one of the most important figures in Prep’s athletic history in terms of “bringing it all together.” He saw everything from the 1948 undefeated football team that was unable to play for the city championship due to a polio outbreak at Prep, to the incredible performances of the 60’s and 70’s in multiple sports.

Gus Coupe (d.)
From 1940 to 1977 Gus Coupe coached golf, football, basketball, baseball and track & field. Athletic director at Prep from 1952 – 1969, retired in 1977. Mr. Fegan modeled himself after Gus Coupe once he took over as athletic director, and every time he had a problem or faced a tough decision, he would think about “what Gus Coupe would do?”

Jim Fegan
He was the head football coach from 1961 – 1996, and athletic director as well. Mr. Fegan received multiple “Coach of the Year” awards in 1970 (Final #1 ranked undefeated football team in the Washington Metropolitan area), 1986 and 1996, His record speaks for itself at 239 – 62 – 12 and he still coaches football today at Prep for the “love of the game.”

Rev. Aloysius C. Galvin, S.J. (d.)
Father Galvin was “The Father Dugan of the modern era”. For over 30 years, he has been one of the key spiritual leaders for students at Prep as they competed on the field and in the classroom. His support help guide many seniors to find continued academic, athletic and general success that goes way beyond Prep.

Frank Emmet (d.)
Golf course designer and golf coach at Georgetown Prep. No discussion of junior golf can begin without mentioning Frank Emmett.

He started the golf team at Georgetown Prep, encouraged other high schools to form teams, and organized tournaments for the boys. He helped launch many notable careers, including Deane R. Beman, the first commissioner of the PGA Tour. Frank was a charter member of the USGA Junior Committee and the driving force behind the creation of the U.S. Junior Amateur.
