Congratulations to the 2026 Michael McDermott Memorial Foundation Scholarship recipients: Nicola Cespe, Matthew Langino, and Madison Squillacioti.
These outstanding Kings Park students exemplify the values Mike lived by: character, hard work, dedication, leadership, and respect. Their commitment to their families, education, and athletics (in that order) earned them this scholarship, which will help support their continued educational journeys. It is an honor and a privilege for our family to recognize these students in memory of our brother, Coach Michael McDermott.
We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who donates, purchases merchandise, attends fundraising events, and supports our foundation throughout the year. Every dollar raised is reinvested directly into our community through these annual scholarships.
The generosity of the Kings Park/Smithtown communities continues to inspire us. Your support allows us to give back in Mike’s name and ensure that his legacy lives on through the achievements of these remarkable young student athletes. From the entire McDermott family, thank you for helping us make a difference 🧡💙
