Saints John Neumann and Maria Goretti Catholic High School was chosen, by Sports Illustrated's website www.SI.com, as the top high school athletic program in the state of Pennsylvania. Mr. John Murawski, President of Neumann-Goretti said, "We are very excited and thrilled with the news. This was made possible by the dedication and hardwork of our coaches, staff and, of course, our student athletes. I am most proud of the fact that along with being outstanding athletes, these students excel in the classroom as well. Neumann-Goretti could not be more happy with the recognition that was given to us by Sports Illustrated."

According to SI, the selection of top programs in each state was based upon tournament results for the 2008-09 school year, contacting athletic directors from top programs, examining success rates as well as weighing a school's production of star athletes and teams that excel.
