After looking at the qualities we wanted in our applicants, it became very apparent who we should name our scholarship after. Steve Schockow is a person who served 30 years with our organization and clearly exemplified all of these characteristics during his tenure with SJBI
- Sportsmanship – Steve was one of the best managers we ever had. His love of the game was apparent and even though the score of the game was important, his focus was on making sure his players played hard and played like gentlemen.
- Leadership – When Steve was on the field, the players could not help but not want to go out and play the game. They thought they were learning the game, but Steve was actually teaching them lessons about life.
- Community Involvement – He spent 30 years with the board while also managing a 13-15 year old Pony team. He would always make the commute from Irondequoit for every event and every game.
