1st Annual
LAURIE DIVITA MEMORIAL
CROSS BAY DUATHLON
Sunday, April 28, 2019
In 2019, NYTRI lost one of our own. Laurie DiVita, wife of NYTRI photographer, first started racing with NYTRI decades ago. Her love for the sport ignited the second the first starting pistol fired. Since then, Laurie beat ovarian cancer, twice, became a 2X Ironman and Rode Across America with Livestrong. She is a true inspiration to woman everywhere. NYTRI is proud to name the inaugural Cross Bay Duathlon in her memory.
11th Annual
ROCCO LAURIE MEMORIAL
STATEN ISLAND TRI/DU
Sunday, August 4, 2019
Rocco Laurie, a Vietnam veteran and NYPD officer, lost his life while serving his fellow NY’ers in 1972. Larry Ambrosino, chair of the Rocco Laurie Scholarship Fund, came up with the idea for a race in Staten Island to remember his Mariners Harbor roots and friend. The fund has helped numerous youngsters, schools and organizations over the years with well over $200,000 being raised in 44 years for student scholarships and aid to non-profit organizations. Rocco Laurie will always be a local hero who will never be forgotten.
