Congratulations to Coach Dave Coratti P’08 for being elected to the NEPSFCA Coaches’ Hall of Fame! As a member of the Hall of Fame, one of the NEPSAC Bowl games will be named after Coratti for years to come.
Dave Coratti joined the Trinity-Pawling faculty in 1981. He has served Trinity-Pawling for 36 years, in roles of Dean of Students and Director of Studies, as well as a long time wrestling and football coach, and now brings his extensive experience to the position of Associate Headmaster, which he assumed in 2001.
On being known as a “T-P Legend”—Coratti admits it is very humbling. “When I am on the field I think about the journey that got me to this point. As for the term “T-P Legend,” being called a “legend” by some indicates that I am getting up there in age!”
Being elected to the NEPSFCA Coaches’ Hall of Fame is a long overdue and well-deserved honor according to many. The new “Hall of Famer” title is a reflection of Coratti’s hard work and dedication, but according to Coratti, it comes down to one thing, “I love what I do.”
“I have always been passionate about teaching and coaching and working with young men. When you have passion for what you do, you will always love your journey in life, “ he concludes.
