Alumni News - Pagan Saves a Life

Nate Pagan

Former Golden Ram defensive back Nate Pagan has earned the title of hero. Pagan, now coaching wide receivers and kick/punt returners for the SUNY Cortland Red Dragons, was identified as a positive match by the National Marrow Donor Program for a young man with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. In July, he underwent surgery to harvest cells to be used to treat the patient.

Pagan, a three-year letterman and member of the Athletic Director Academic Honor Roll at West Chester, joins former Golden Ram fullback Jared Bonacquisti who was recognized earlier this year for his life saving donation.
