Alumni will be updated to include the Calumet Park Rams

 

The majority of our multi-year participants  further their education after high school.  We have a large number of college graduates and undergraduates who are former Robbins Eagles.   Among them,  here are two names you might be most familiar with:

• 1999 – 1st Robbins Eagle drafted into the NFL, Joe Montgomery  – Ohio State University – New York Giants

 

 

Former Robbins Eagle

 

• 2003 – Dwayne Wade -1st Robbins Eagle drafted into the NBA,  Dwayne Wade – Marquette University – Miami Heat

 

Former Robbins Eagle

Wade refuses to let his life go by without doing something now. Not before it’s too late, before his true power is gone — the power most athletes lose when they leave the game.

Northern Illinois University Football Player

“Maybe if I had been somewhere else, I wouldn’t have gotten the same kind of motivation.  So, no, I wouldn’t change anything.  Growing up in Robbins“, said Andrews, “taught me a lot of things…to never forget where I come from, to respect where I come from.  It taught me that nothing would be handed to me.  I started in football in the fifth grade with the Robbins Eagles.  Those were fun times, “ Andrews said. “In the sixth grade we got to play in the Pop Warner playoffs at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.“
