Michael Crotty ‘79 Michael Crotty’s time as a Charlotte Catholic student lasted only one year, but his commitment to the school has endured for nearly five decades. Mike moved to Charlotte from Buffalo, New York, and joined Charlotte Catholic for his senior year, graduating with the Class of 1979 when the school was located on Park Road. He played football for legendary coach Jim Oddo, beginning a connection to Cougar athletics that has spanned generations. His daughter Catherine graduated from Charlotte Catholic in 2013, and his son Daniel ‘15, also played for Coach Oddo. Long after his own graduation, and even after his children graduated from CCHS, Mike remains one of the school’s most recognizable and dependable volunteers. He supported the annual CCHS Telethon, serves on the Alumni Association Board, and is a fixture at Cougar athletic events. For years, he ran the ticket gates at home football games, earning the affectionate nickname “The Gatemaster”. The CCHS athletic department even gave him a Cougars varsity hoodie bearing the title. When the athletic department transitioned to online ticketing, Mike simply found another place to help, taking on responsibilities with the concession stands. His dedication also extends to the lacrosse program, where he began keeping varsity statistics when his son was on the team and he continues doing so more than a decade after Daniel’s graduation. Mike’s service also reaches to the broader Catholic community. He coached Holy Trinity football for nearly a decade, runs a gym for both the Shamrock Basketball Tournament and CCHS Alumni Basketball Tournament, and has devoted countless hours to St. Gabriel Catholic Church through its Christmas Tree Lot, annual Fish Fry, and adult softball program. Whether at a ticket gate, concession stand, press box, gym, athletic field, or parish event, Mike Crotty has spent decades showing up wherever he is needed. His extraordinary generosity of time and lifelong devotion to the Catholic community exemplify the spirit of Charlotte Catholic’s Distinguished Alumni Award.
Joshua Brodowicz ‘16 Josh Brodowicz distinguished himself at Charlotte Catholic as a multisport athlete, competing in both football and basketball before focusing on basketball during his senior year. A three-year starter on the varsity basketball team, Josh capped his career with a historic senior season. He was named team MVP and 2015–16 Conference Player of the Year, helping lead the Cougars to a program-best 32–1 record and the 2016 NCHSAA State Championship, the first men’s basketball state title in school history. Josh delivered his most memorable performance when the stakes were highest. In the state championship game against Cary High School, Charlotte Catholic trailed by 19 points in the third quarter before mounting a dramatic comeback to win, 49–46. Josh led all players on both teams with 14 points and seven rebounds, earning State Championship Game MVP honors. He was also named Second Team All-District during his senior season. Over his Charlotte Catholic career, Josh recorded 803 points, 247 assists, and 162 steals, leaving his mark as both a scorer and playmaker. Following graduation, Josh continued his basketball career at Queens University of Charlotte, where he earned a scholarship and competed for four years. The discipline, perseverance, and leadership Josh showed on the court ultimately carried him into a very different arena. After completing his collegiate career, Josh joined the United States Navy. Today he is stationed in San Diego, California, continuing a life of leadership, service, and commitment to others. Beyond his athletic and professional accomplishments, Josh has remained committed to the values that characterized his time at Charlotte Catholic. His Catholic faith continues to be an important part of his life, and he strives to lead by example and encourage the men around him to grow closer to Christ. His accomplishments as a championship athlete, together with his character, faith, leadership, and dedication to service, have continued the legacy he began at Charlotte Catholic.
Reginald Dixon ‘72 A gifted three-sport athlete and one of Charlotte Catholic’s top basketball players of his era, Reginald “Reggie” Dixon distinguished himself through his athletic ability, competitiveness and commitment to his teammates. Reggie was a varsity athlete in basketball and football during both his junior and senior years, playing wide receiver and quarterback for the football team. He added varsity baseball as a senior, but it was on the basketball court where he made his greatest impact. A two-year standout for the Cougars, Dixon led Charlotte Catholic in scoring during both his junior and senior seasons. He was one of the top scorers in Mecklenburg County, averaging almost 20 points per game and earning All-County recognition both his junior and senior seasons. As a senior, Reggie served as team captain and earned All-Conference honors. He was named to the All-Tournament Team in the Knights of Columbus Invitational, leading the Cougars to the title with 29 points in a win against Bishop McGuiness. Despite regularly drawing double teams and considerable attention from opposing defenses, he remained the focal point of the Cougar offense throughout his career. Reggie received recruiting interest from numerous colleges, but injuries ultimately prevented him from continuing his playing career at the collegiate level. Still, his accomplishments at Charlotte Catholic established him as one of the school’s outstanding athletes of the early 1970s. Reggie’s impact has continued long after his playing days. Throughout his life, he has remained committed to his faith, family and community, volunteering his time as a youth basketball and football coach while serving as a mentor and benefactor to young people. A team captain, All-Conference performer, three-sport varsity athlete and one of Mecklenburg County’s leading basketball players, Reginald Dixon exemplified athletic excellence and leadership during his years at Charlotte Catholic and continued to embody those values throughout his life.
Casey McCormick ‘08 Casey McCormick made an immediate mark on Charlotte Catholic women’s soccer, emerging as a premier regional player as a freshman. A dynamic scorer and playmaker, she earned elite individual honors in all four varsity seasons while leading the Cougars to two state championship game appearances. As a freshman in 2005, Casey scored 34 goals and added 25 assists while helping Charlotte Catholic reach the NCHSAA 1A/2A state championship game. She was named Region 9 Player of the Year, AllState and Charlotte Observer Player of the Year. After suffering a serious knee injury that season, she returned as a sophomore to record 23 goals and 21 assists. As a junior, Casey led the Cougars back to the state championship game, recording 23 goals and 16 assists. She earned her second Charlotte Observer Player of the Year award and was named Mecklenburg County Player of the Year, All-Observer, All-Region and All-Mecklenburg. By season’s end, she had accumulated 80 career goals and 62 assists. Casey completed her career as a four-time All-State selection and Charlotte Catholic’s Conference Player of the Year. Following her senior season, she was selected for both the NCHSAA East-West AllStar Game and Clash of the Carolinas All-Star Game. Despite enduring two ACL tears during high school, she established herself among the area’s elite players. Following Charlotte Catholic, Casey attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and exercise science and a Master of Public Health. Her career included global health work in Vietnam and Madagascar before earning her nursing degree from Johns Hopkins University and becoming an emergency and trauma nurse. Today, Casey is an Assistant Teaching Professor at the University of Missouri Sinclair School of Nursing, specializing in emergency and trauma nursing and global health.
Matt McKillop ‘01 A three-year varsity starter, team captain and one of Charlotte Catholic’s top basketball players of his era, Matt McKillop distinguished himself as a scorer, shooter, defender and leader during one of the most successful periods in Cougar basketball history. Matt scored 869 points during his three varsity seasons, averaging 13.0 points per game while helping Charlotte Catholic compile a 51-26 record. He made 123 three-pointers and shot 38.7 percent from beyond the arc. As a junior, he helped lead the Cougars to a 19-4 record, an undefeated conference regular season, a conference championship, a consistent place in the Charlotte Observer’s Sweet 16 rankings and the No. 1 seed in the N.C. 2A state playoffs. Matt saved his finest individual season for his senior year. Serving as team captain, he led the Cougars with 398 points and averaged 19.0 points per game while shooting 40 percent from three-point range. He scored 20 or more points 11 times, including two 30-point performances, and ranked among the conference and Charlotte-area leaders in scoring and three-pointers. Matt was a unanimous First Team All-Conference selection and earned Charlotte Observer AllObserver honors. Beyond his scoring, he frequently guarded the opponent’s best player and was regarded by teammates and coaches as the heart and soul of the team. Following Charlotte Catholic and a post-graduate year, Matt earned a Division I scholarship to Davidson College. At Davidson, he earned four varsity letters, started 98 of 117 games and served as team captain as a senior. He helped the Wildcats win three Southern Conference South Division titles, reach the 2005 NIT and capture the 2006 Southern Conference Tournament championship to advance to the NCAA Tournament. After playing professionally overseas, Matt began coaching and returned to Davidson in 2008. He was named the Wildcats’ 19th head men’s basketball coach in 2022. From Charlotte Catholic standout to Division I player, professional athlete and college head coach, Matt’s basketball career has been defined by leadership, competitiveness and commitment to the game.
Carrie Eberle Parker ‘16 One of the most dominant softball players in Charlotte Catholic history, Carrie Eberle Parker established a standard of excellence that continued throughout an extraordinary collegiate and professional career. At Charlotte Catholic, Carrie was a four-time All-Conference selection, two-time Conference Player of the Year, All-District and All-State honoree, and four-time member of the Charlotte Observer All-Observer Team. As a senior in 2016, she was named the Charlotte Observer Player of the Year. A dominant two-way player, Carrie finished her Charlotte Catholic career with a 1.08 ERA, 52 victories and 608 strikeouts in 472.1 innings pitched. She was equally formidable at the plate, compiling a .480 career batting average. Her pitching dominance, offensive production and consistency made her one of the most accomplished studentathletes in Cougar softball history. Carrie carried that success to NCAA Division I at Virginia Tech and Oklahoma State. At Virginia Tech, she was named the 2019 ACC Pitcher of the Year and ACC Softball Scholar-Athlete of the Year after posting a 25-8 record with a 1.84 ERA. She graduated with a biology degree in three years before transferring to Oklahoma State, where she became a two-time All-American and Big 12 Pitcher of the Year. Over two seasons with the Cowgirls, she compiled a 36-5 record with a 1.13 ERA and helped lead Oklahoma State to the 2021 Women’s College World Series. She also earned Academic All-America honors in 2021. Following college, Carrie played professionally for three seasons with Athletes Unlimited, earning Rookie of the Year honors. She returned to Oklahoma State as pitching coach, helping guide the Cowgirls back to the Women’s College World Series and earning recognition as part of the 2024 NFCA Midwest Region Coaching Staff of the Year. From a record-setting career at Charlotte Catholic to All-America honors, professional softball and Division I coaching, Carrie Eberle Parker continues to exemplify the competitive excellence and leadership that defined her years as a Cougar.
Brian Scannell ‘98 Brian Scannell established himself as one of the most accomplished swimmers in Charlotte Catholic history during a remarkable career in the pool. A standout in the individual medley and butterfly, Brian captured four individual NCHSAA state championships, won multiple relay state championships, and helped lead the Cougars to back-toback team state championships in 1996 and 1997. Brian was dominant in the 200-yard individual medley, winning three consecutive state championships in the event. He captured his first title in 1996, successfully defended it in 1997, and completed the three-peat as a senior in 1998 with a career-best championship time of 1:54.67. Brian added another individual state championship as a senior, winning the 100-yard butterfly. His outstanding performance at the 1998 state meet earned him NCHSAA 1A/2A/3A Most Valuable Swimmer honors. His individual and relay success helped establish Charlotte Catholic as one of the state's premier swimming programs during that era, highlighted by consecutive NCHSAA team championships in his sophomore and junior seasons. Following graduation, Brian continued his swimming career at the University of Georgia, competing for four seasons for one of the nation's top collegiate programs. He capped his career at the 2002 NCAA Division I Championships, where he competed individually in both the 100- and 200-yard butterfly and swam the butterfly leg of Georgia's 200-yard medley relay, which earned him Honorable Mention All-America recognition. Brian also excelled academically and in service while at Georgia, earning multiple SEC Academic Honor Roll selections, an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship and the SEC Community Service Award. Brian's pursuit of excellence continued after his competitive swimming career. He earned his medical degree from the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and today is a pediatric orthopedic surgeon in Charlotte. He also serves in leadership roles in orthopedic education, carrying forward the same commitment to excellence, leadership and service that distinguished his years as a student-athlete at Charlotte Catholic.
Tucker Windle ‘09 A versatile two-way standout, Tucker Windle was a key contributor during one of the most successful stretches in CCHS football history. During his three varsity seasons from 2006–2008, the Cougars compiled a 37-9 record, went undefeated in conference play, won three consecutive Queen City Conference championships and made back-toback appearances in the N.C. 3AA state championship game. Tucker excelled at tight end and linebacker. He led the Cougars in receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns both his junior and senior seasons. His outstanding play earned Associated Press AllState honors his senior season. Recognized among the Carolinas’ top recruits by the Charlotte Observer and nationally ranked at tight end by ESPN, Tucker received multiple Division I offers before choosing the University of Virginia. Windle played four years for the Cavaliers and earned a Bachelor of Arts in History. After college, he returned to Charlotte and fulfilled what he called a “lifelong dream” by joining the Charlotte Catholic coaching staff. As linebacker coach and defensive coordinator, he helped the Cougars compile a 45-4 record over his first three seasons, including an undefeated 15-0 state championship season in 2015. In 2017, Tucker faced a far different challenge when doctors discovered a rare brain tumor near his brain stem. Following successful surgery, he turned his personal experience into an opportunity to help others through his involvement with the National Brain Tumor Society. He has also served in leadership roles with YMCA Camp Thunderbird and The Touchdown Club. He remains actively involved in supporting Charlotte Catholic, helping lead the Cougar Classic Golf Tournament, an annual fundraising event that provides financial support for a variety of school programs and initiatives. From All-State player and Division I athlete to state championship coach and community leader, Tucker’s perseverance, faith and commitment to others continue to reflect the values of Charlotte Catholic.
