Catholic Memorial Eagles Name New Defensive Coordinator

Catholic Memorial, a Division I program based in West Roxbury, has elevated assistant coach John Smith to defensive coordinator after five seasons with the Eagles. Smith's tenure has been marked by the development of several standout defensive players, including last year's MIAA All-State selection, Jack Johnson. The promotion is expected to have a significant impact on the team's recruiting efforts, as Smith's reputation as a top defensive mind in the state is likely to attract top talent. The Eagles, who finished 8-3 in 2025, will look to build on their recent success and compete for a league title in the Catholic Conference. Smith's experience and expertise will be crucial in helping the team achieve its goals.
