CRUSADER STADIUM & JACK MCGOVERN FIELD

With a picturesque backdrop which lends to its famously cozy feel, Bergen Catholic’s Crusader Stadium has been the site of numerous historic contests for the BC football, soccer, lacrosse and outdoor track programs.

On the top level of the Saingas Center is the state-of-the-art wrestling room, which houses practices for the Crusader wrestling program, regarded as one of the nation’s perennial wrestling powers.
