Bishop Chatard is inviting all alumni girls basketball players who played as seniors at BCHS to come back to BCHS for a special recognition night on Nov. 24, 2021 (the night of the BCHS vs Cathedral game).

We’ve been playing girls basketball at Bishop Chatard for 47 years and are inviting you back to BCHS for an evening of reminiscing, socializing, and recognition. The alumni (and their families) will meet in the cafeteria during the JV game (anytime after 5:30 p.m.) for socializing. Then, the alumni will be introduced between the JV and Varsity games to the assembled crowd. The alumni and their families will then be invited to cheer on the Trojans as they battle the Irish in the Varsity contest that evening.

This should be a fun evening for the alumni girls/ women!

Moira McGinley has been named the 2020-2021 Female City Athlete of the Year!

Moira McGinley of Bishop Chatard HS has been ‘on the go’ since her freshman year. She has lettered in Cross Country, Golf, Basketball and Track for a total of ten monograms. Cross Country and Golf were fun sports for her and displayed her athletic versatility. Basketball has been Moira’s primary sport and athletic love!

Her tremendous playing IQ allowed her to consistently anticipate plays and opponents’ moves before they happened, which resulted in good things for her team. As a 96-game varsity starter, Moira became the school’s all-time leader in scoring and steals, while helping lead her squads to two Sectional Championships and the school’s first-ever City Title. It did not matter whether she was scoring, defending, or rebounding as Moira only cared about how her team was doing.

Moira was named All City and All Conference for four consecutive years, and she also earned 2nd Team All State honors by the ICGSA. She also showed her athleticism in Track & Field by scoring in an array of events during her career. She was a Regional qualifier in both the Long Jump and High Jump events. Her performances have added to her team’s depth that have produced three City Championships and one Conference Team Title.

Moira is a four-year Student Council member and served as Student Body Vice President her Senior year. She also received Bishop Chatard’s Medal of Honor, which is given to one graduating senior that demonstrates the values, beliefs, and actions of the school’s mission. Her love of competition also extends to the classroom where she was a consistent honor roll student and received the Academic Excellence Award in Public Speaking.

Moira will continue her academic and basketball pursuits at DePauw University.

Congratulations, Moria.
