Biography

JohnMcCoy.jpg

John McCoy flat out did it all as a Shamrock. As a 2-year starter at quarterback during the peak of Bishop Feehan’s run as one of the premier football programs in Massachusetts, McCoy was one of the most decorated football players in school history. A dual-threat quarterback in every sense of the word, McCoy led the Shamrock offensive juggernaut to 2 consecutive Super Bowl championships, defeating strong Masconomet and Duxbury squads. Aided by a strong line including fellow inductee David Paine, McCoy spearheaded a “three-headed monster” which included a rushing attack of Ryan Tully/Rob McCourt and Hall of Fame wideout Ron Conway.

McCoy had a 22-2 record as a starter at QB for the Shamrocks, with those 2 losses coming by a combined 3 points. Along with the 2 Super Bowl rings, John finished his career with over 2,600 passing yards and 32 touchdown passes. Besides being named as a 2-time EAC, Sun Chronicle, and Pawtucket Times All-Star, McCoy was widely recognized across the state for his individual accomplishments as well as the leading the Feehan program to substantial success. He was a 6-time Boston Globe Player of the week and received the same award 7 times in the Boston Herald. Both publications named him to their All-Star teams. He was the Boston Globe’s Division 4 Player of the Year, was a member of the Super 26 team, and participated in the Shriners Classic.

Coach Jack Peavey was quite vocal in his praise of McCoy’s all-around versatility and playmaking ability saying “I think he’s the best quarterback in Massachusetts. We have some really good quarterbacks in our area, but I’ll tell you, John makes more plays than any of them. He makes plays out of nothing for us”. One mind-boggling statistic is that McCoy threw 5 touchdown passes on 5 consecutive plays against Coyle-Cassidy (including a 6th which was called back due to a penalty).

John McCoy was a leader and the “real deal” as a complete athlete/QB – and certainly deserving of recognition and induction in the Attleboro Area Football Hall of Fame.
