Former Saint Joseph’s Head Coach John Griffin said-

“I was blessed to have coached Rap for several years. We have had great guards at Saint Joseph’s, and without being disrespectful to anyone, he was one of the best. He was an NBA talent, if not for the injuries.”

“Rap was a remarkable player, but an even better leader and person. And that became more evident after his time at Saint Joseph’s with his work in higher education. He was a terrific husband, father and son.”

Saint Joseph's sends its love, prayers and deepest condolences to the family and friends of Men's Basketball and Philadelphia Big 5 Hall of Famer Ralphal "Rap" Curry Jr. '94. #THWND
