Lisle High School along with the Lisle community will always and forever hold a special place in my family’s heart. I personally have the pleasure of not only being a Lisle High School Alumni - but also the experience of having children Summer (2014), Trevor (2017) and Cameron (2018) attend Lisle High School. (Oh, and did I mention I am married to alumni Tom Stitt for 27 years) In terms of my own experience, I have the greatest memories both in the classroom and in a wide variety of extra-curricular activities. What I cherish most about these memories at Lisle is they provided experiences beyond the classroom that helped build skills and attributes of teamwork, competition, and comradery. The relationships and bonds of friendship with both teammates and coaches created memories that are still talked and laughed about around the Stitt table today. As I reflect on my kids and their experiences at Lisle, I feel an abundance of pride at their accomplishments and at the same time tremendous gratitude to all the teachers and coaches who took the extra time in nurturing my kids both athletically and academically. Special shout-outs to Coach Nalley, Coach LaScala, Coach Parpet, Coach Dan Sanko, Coach Zimmerman (Pomato), Coach Matarieh, Coach Kim Sanko and Coach Jones and oh so many other wonderful teachers and coaches. We are forever thankful to Lisle High School and are honored to be a part of the CNF Alumni Association. We are also honored to have our children be recipients of scholarships provided by the CNF Alumni Association.

Carlin Nalley was more than a coach to me. He took me under his wing and mentored me as a young athlete at Lisle to compete at the highest level - often spending weekends away from his family to take me to track events around the Midwest. I am forever grateful for his time, energy, and commitment to shaping my high school experience and believing in me the way he did. The CNF Alumni Association strives to carry on the legacy and spirit of Carlin Nalley by providing scholarship to Lisle students and I am honored to be a part of this effort. Thanks for all you did Coach!

With each passing year I cherish my Lisle High School education and athletic experience more and more. There are not many schools out there where you can play multiple sports, participate in numerous clubs, and obtain a quality education. At Lisle High School you can truly do it all with the support of the school, teachers, and community. My experience at Lisle prepared me to succeed in college and beyond. What I cherish most is the strong foundation of friends and fellow students from Lisle. I love the teachers, coaches and friendships formed during my time at Lisle and truly believe “Once a Lion, always a Lion.”

A community and a school help define and shape who we are by instilling values that we live by. Lisle may be a small town, but it has had a great impact on my life. Lisle High School truly contributed in so many ways in my development as a student, as an athlete and most importantly as a person. I am grateful to so many teaches and coaches for believing in me and helping me succeed in school, on the court and on the field. It was also an honor to be a recipient of a scholarship through the CNF Alumni Association and I am very thankful.

“Every day is a great day to be a Lion” in the words of Coach LaScala, and I am still a Lion at heart. I had teachers at Lisle like Coach Sanko who held high expectations for me on and off the field because he knew I had more to give. Having someone believe in your potential so important and teachers at Lisle are top notch at going the extra mile.
