Pasquale Palumbo
Congratulations to Hawthorne native Pasquale Palumbo, who appeared on Jeopardy and won an episode on April 8. Palumbo, 45, attended White Plains High School and is a former coach of the White Plains HS football team.
Palumbo talked football with the guest host of Jeopardy, Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Palumbo joked that he and Rogers shared a football connection. “I both played and coached high school football at White Plains High. My head coach Mark Santa-Donato was coached by Ralph Friedgen Sr., who was coached by Colonel Red Blake up at West Point who had Vince Lombardi on his coaching staff at the time.”
