St. Patrick High School, a small, no-frills Catholic institution
located in a rough urban area of New Jersey, houses one of the
nation's most storied high school basketball programs. Kevin Boyle,
a leader who garnered multiple National Coach of the Year awards,
cultivated that winning tradition, and brought the team to the top
of its sport over the course of two decades.
In Celtic Pride, sportswriter and author Brian Fitzsimmons
chronicles a group of teenagers forced to juggle friendship and the
immense pressure of being on the nation's best team throughout the
2010-2011 season, while unmasking the man behind it all.
This biography narrates how, with the help of a close support
system and famous alumni now making headlines at the collegiate and
professional levels, Boyle orchestrated a rags-to-riches story.
Despite being hampered by a budget shortfall strong enough to
present a potential death blow to his school's existence, Boyle not
only produced a number of high-achieving players but also earned
the reputation of being one of the most respected high school
basketball coaches in the United States.
