Luke Trotz was the Esports director at Saint Francis University and a friend of Bishop Carroll. He was instrumental in helping to establish Bishop Carroll’s own dedicated Esports facility, the first of its kind in a high school in our area. Luke sadly passed away last summer.
The Luke Trotz Foundation supports local high schools, colleges, and the community, to help students achieve success in all areas and endeavors that Luke would support. The Foundation has established several scholarships in Luke’s name.
Bishop Carroll Chemistry Teacher and Esports Coach Mr. John Howard remarked, “It is great that we can support the ideals that Luke valued. He worked very hard and did so much to help us establish our growing programs here at BC. Giving back in Luke’s name is truly an honor.”
