History

Bishop Gorman High School opened its doors on September 7, 1954. Bishop Dwyer named it after his predecessor, Thomas Kiely Gorman, the first Catholic Bishop of the Reno-Las Vegas Diocese.[5]

The campus was originally located near Downtown Las Vegas, at 1801 S. Maryland Pkwy. Classes began at its current Summerlin location on September 5, 2007. The new 187,000-square-foot (17,400 m2) school, located on a campus of 36 acres (15 ha), cost $96 million to build.[2]

Later on, an athletic center (referred to as the ATC) was donated for $18 million.[6]

Extracurricular activities

Athletics

The athletics program and teams of Bishop Gorman are known as the Gaels, and compete in the Southwest Division of the Sunset 5A Region. The Gaels have been described by USA Today and Sports Illustrated as being among the top thousand high school athletic programs in the United States.[7][8]

In the summer of 2008, the Gaels baseball team, sponsored by American Legion Post 76 in Las Vegas, won the American Legion World Series, a first for any Nevada high school.[9] They ended up fielding 798 points total in football, more than any other high school in the nation for the 2009 season and ended up being ranked 46th in the nation by Rivals.[citation needed]

Coach Tony Sanchez took over as Bishop Gorman High School's head football coach in March 2009. In 2010 and 2011, he led Gorman to a varsity record of 28-2 and an overall program record of 61-4. At the start of the 2012 season, Gorman beat nationally ranked teams Our Lady of Good Counsel in Maryland and St. Louis High School in Hawaii to raise its high school ranking into the top ten schools. Both matches were televised, by ESPN and Fox networks, respectively. In 2014 and 2015, Bishop Gorman won back-to-back National Championships. Sanchez then left the program to coach at the collegiate level.[10]

Former D1 wrestler, 3rd degree black belt in Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, 3 time Team USA member, 5 time world grappling champ (152-5 overall, 78-0 FILA Int), and head strategist coach for MMA, Ricky Lundell is the current head wrestling coach for the Gaels, along with his assistant coach Todd Prace.[citation needed]
