On Saturday, April 16, more than 200 members from the Loyola community gathered in Knott Hall to hear from panelists Snuffy Smith '60, Pete Budko '77, and Tony Guy '78 as they paid homage to late Loyola Blakefield Hall of Fame Basketball Coach Jerry Savage. The panel was moderated by Paul McMullen of The Catholic Review.
All funds raised from ticket sales and sponsorships will go towards the Jerry Savage Merit Scholarship Fund, which was created in 2014 to help provide merit awards to incoming or enrolled students with exceptional talent in basketball and who meet Loyola’s high academic standards. To date, the initiative has garnered nearly $200,000 in support. If you would like to make a donation to the Jerry Savage Merit Scholarship Fund, please do so here.
