Many of you know Coach Paul Rodio — a legendary local basketball coach, and a true pillar of our South Jersey community. Coach has been a dedicated friend to so many of us through the years, whether on the court inspiring young athletes or cheering on our Italian-American traditions.


Coach Rodio is currently facing a serious health challenge. He has been placed on the national liver transplant waitlist at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. His doctors believe a living donor transplant offers him the best chance for a longer, healthier life.
