Thomas Taylor, Class of 1967
Tom was an outstanding three-sport athlete for the Tigers. He was the quarterback for the football team, a guard on the basketball team and an infielder on the baseball team. What really separated Tom was his leadership qualities. He was a great teammate beloved by his peers. Tragically after his senior year in basketball he was diagnosed with cancer and had his leg amputated just above the knee. That didn’t stop him from riding the team bus to away games to support his baseball teammates. Tom unfortunately succumbed to the disease within 2 years. The Tom Taylor award is presented every year in his honor to an Amherst Central High School student who is an outstanding athlete, good student, and has leadership qualities.
Chuck Davies, Class of 1972
Chuck was a three-sport athlete playing football, hockey and baseball. He set the record at the time for most passing yardage in a football game. During his senior baseball season, he hit over .400 and was selected to the All Star team. He went on to play hockey at the University at Buffalo and played on two national championship juniors teams.
Mike Mooney, Class of 1979
During his time at Amherst, Mike was a three-sport athlete in soccer, basketball and baseball. He contributed to sectional championships in soccer in 1977 and 1978. He then went on to become the Director of Athletics at SUNY Geneseo, retiring in 2022 after serving in that role for 12 years.
