William Fay
It didnāt take long for William Fay from Massachusetts to feel comfortable in his soon-to-be new country. āI really loved the tradition and brotherhood when I visited campus. They made me feel right at home and got me excited to be apart of their family in the upcoming fall. StFX is what I was looking for from both an academic and athletic standpoint,ā Fay said.
āIāve heard only excellent things about Head Coach Waterman and his entire staff,ā Fay added. āI got a chance to meet most of the coaches and they all have the experience necessary to lead a group of young men. Iām also very excited to work with Coach Jim Daley.ā
Fay spent three years playing varsity football with the Catholic Memorial Knights in West Roxbury, Boston. He will be taking business at StFX.
