BAGHDADY
BELMONT - The eleventh annual Brendan Grant Scholarships were awarded at
the Senior Student Assembly at Belmont High School in Belmont, MA on
Friday, 1 June 2012. The latest recipients are class of 2012 graduating
Seniors Christian Raymond, Erin Reilly, and Sami Baghdady.
 A
single scholarship was awarded in 2002 and 2003, and in 2004 it was
expanded to two annual scholarships. In 2008 the scholarships were
expanded from two to three recipients for a college-bound Senior from
the Belmont High School Varsity Baseball Team, Varsity Softball Team.,
and Varsity Wrestling Team. The team affiliations for each recipient are
Christian Raymond representing baseball, Erin Reilly representing
softball, and Sami Baghdady representing wrestling. In the fall of 2012,
Christian will be attending Eckerd College, Erin will be attending
Springfield College, and Sami will be attending Brown University.
Sincere congratulations are extended to Christian, Erin, Sami and their
families.
The Brendan Grant Scholarship has been established in memory of Brendan
Grant, the accomplished 19-year old Belmont baseball player who was
fatally injured in an outfield collision during a Senior Babe Ruth game
in June 2001. The three annual scholarships provide assistance to a
senior member of the Belmont High School varsity baseball, softball and
wrestling teams who will be attending an institution of higher learning
after graduation. The scholarship is intended to reward a player who
possesses the same positive spirit and leadership skills for which
Brendan was known. Click here for more information about the scholarship
and about past recipients.
All contributions to support these annual scholarship awards are greatly
appreciated, and can be made payable to and mailed to "The Brendan Grant
Foundation", P.O. Box 184, Belmont, MA 02478-4024
