50th Anniversary Celebration - Baseball

On April 18, we honored and welcomed back the 1976 State Championship baseball team during the varsity's game vs. Fr. Judge. The team finished a historic, undefeated 20-0 season and captured the program's first state championship under the guidance of legendary coach Fr. Robert D. Kenney, OSFS. The team celebrated the 50th anniversary of the historic season and continue to keep in close contact.

Members of the 1976 Salesianum baseball team — the first undefeated state championship team in Delaware history — stand for the national anthem during a ceremony honoring their 50th anniversary before a game against Father Judge (Pa.) at Salesianum’s Fusco Fields in Wilmington on April 18, 2026. Salesianum won 6-2.
