RHS Athletic Hall of Fame: Paul Ferraro

Mission:
To honor the athletic achievements of RHS student athletes, coaches, teams, and individuals who are deemed to have had a major and lasting impact on the athletic program at RHS. The Hall of Fame recognizes these individuals’ accomplishments as beacons to others, that they may clearly see and be inspired by the outcomes of lives lived in love of sport and competition.

Here is the link to the RHS web site for Paul Ferraro, son of another Hall of Famer Mario Ferraro:

"Acknowledged as one of the greatest two-way football players in the school’s history, he was acknowledged as a first-team All-Decade linebacker for the1970s by The Record and was a two-time first-team linebacker on the All-County, All-Suburban and All-NNJIL all-star teams. He was the first single-season 1,000-yard rusher in school history and held the single- season rushing record of 1,079 yards (accomplished in nine games) for 28 years."
