Pioneer pride runs through generations. ❤️

Mario Torres ’98 and his sons, Alex ’27 and Jaxon ’29, are continuing the family’s Sacred Heart legacy as Division I student-athletes in football and wrestling while pursuing their academic goals.

“I still get that little giddy feeling every time I walk onto campus, whether it’s for a game or a visit,” Mario said, reflecting on the lasting connection he has maintained with SHU since graduating in 1998. Read their family story: https://bit.ly/46yP3gG
