Gerald Cahill moved to the community in 1968 where he devoted his time to his family and the children of Medford Lakes through recreational sports. A current Laker shared the following story. This Laker showed up to his soccer game as a kid and his cleats split making it impossible for him to play. His parents weren’t home, and there were no cell phones, so Coach Cahill took the Laker to the local store and bought him a new pair so he could play. The scholarship is presented to the Neeta and Shawnee graduates who best represent the spirit of Gerald Cahill and the MLAA through their community involvement and volunteerism.
