In addition to Sister Maria's many athletic and leadership accomplishments, give she was the "face" of the campaign to fund and build the new gym, there is no question of whether or not it should be name after her.
The first time I visited Sacred Heart for an open house Sister Maria was out back pacing out where a new gym could go. It seems fitting to honour her in this way.
Although I played softball for rival Mount St. Mary, one of the highest compliments I ever got (relayed to me by my cousin, Molly Killeen Hopkins) was that, when I got up to bat, Sr. Maria said, "Watch out for this one; she can hit!" Happy to support this effort!
Let's take a disappointing situation and turn it into something positive... Let's celebrate Sr Maria's contribution to SHA. I went to Sacred Heart to play for Sr Maria. She worked tirelessly to get the gym built. Let's make sure we can honor her in some way in the new gymnasium.
I didnt go to SHA.... as an HAA girl sister Maria still instilled morals and sportsmanship in me. she always believed in me even when I didnt believe in myself or wasnt on her team. xoxo

Sister Maria is one of the most positively influential women in my life. I still share stories about her with friends, fily, and students. I feel blessed for being one of her students and athletes. Thank you, Sister, for more than you know. Hugs and love to you.
