Tom Crotty Memorial Classic
Hope Thru Hoops, a not-for-profit foundation, handles educational and philanthropic endeavors in the name of Thomas G. Crotty.
Tom was a managing director at Sandler O'Neill at the time of his death, September 11, 2001. Tom, who was a four-year letterman at Marist College, was the only known fatality of 9/11 that played four years of Division I basketball. The Tom Crotty Memorial Classic was established as a result of Tom's love for basketball, and is designed to raise money for the various Hope Thru Hoops charities.
