Kenneth Molloy

Kenneth Molloy (1919 to 1999) was an American lacrosse player and coach who later became a judge on the New York State Supreme Court. Born in Brooklyn, he played lacrosse, basketball, baseball and swimming at Manual Training High School and then became a two-time All-American in lacrosse at Syracuse University. After earning a Silver Star as a PT boat commander in the Pacific during World War II, he returned to Syracuse for law school and coached its varsity lacrosse team. Settling in Manhasset, he helped build lacrosse programs at Long Island schools, and the town's lacrosse field and an annual invitational carry his name. He also helped fund Jim Brown's first year at Syracuse.
