Enrolled at OLMC from 1984 to 1992, Joseph Michael Mattingly went on to become a Nurse. He lives in Energy, Illinois with son, James, who is almost seven years old and a one year old daughter, Emily. Joseph shares this special memory about his time as a student: "My very first basketball game in 5th grade was at Crab Orchard. Coach Lukens put me in near the end of the game at point guard. I remember dribbling the ball down the floor with just a minute or so remaining. Our team hadn't scored any points yet. As our team came down the floor, I shot the ball near the top of the key and it banked off of the backboard and went into the basket to score the only points our team scored. I vividly remember the crowd cheering loudly when that happened. It was great!"
