Harrington completed one of the most accomplished three sport careers in Pius X history. He earned 1st team All-City and All-State honors in football and baseball while earning 2nd team All-State honors in basketball. He was part of two state championship football teams and still holds career records in touchdown receptions and receiving yards.
He made an appearance in the state basketball finals and is Top 70 on the all time scoring charts. Harrington gained even more recognition on the baseball field where he played professionally for the Mariners organization.

He currently resides in Lincoln with his wife Nikki (’00), their daughter, Evelyn, and a sibling to arrive later this year. Harrington works as a medical device representative for Smith & Nephew Endoscopy.
