Saving Their Season

Assistant Coach, Bret Brown, has established the "Dontay Baron Hope Foundation" in an effort to help give Roosevelt students a shot at better future.

Dontay "Tay" Baron was a Roosevelt (L.I.) High School student- athlete who overcame difficult circumstances and became the epitome of the compassionate warrior. He passionately fought for what he believed, and shared his joy and love of life with everyone he touched. The Dontay Baron HOPE Foundation has been established to promote the qualities that Tay personified.

The centerpiece of the Dontay Baron Hope Foundation is the Self-Sufficiency Center, where low-income students in the Roosevelt community can come together to succeed in their studies and beyond, and avoid the lure of drugs, gangs and other undesirable paths.
