 During Sister Maria’s tenure, her Sacred Heart teams not only dominated the Monsignor Martin Association, but routinely beat the best that the public schools had to offer. Sacred Heart was a regular participant in the Ken-Ton Kiwanis Tournament and Lockport Tournament, which featured outstanding public school teams. During Sister Maria’s tenure, her Sacred Heart teams not only dominated the Monsignor Martin Association, but routinely beat the best that the public schools had to offer.

 Perhaps the most amazing aspect of Sister Maria Pares' coaching career is the fact that she achieved an unmatched level of excellence while coaching basketball simultaneously at Sacred Heart and Canisius from 1982 to 1986. In addition to basketball, Sister Maria coached volleyball, softball, and badminton at Sacred Heart; and several of her teams in those sports captured Catholic League titles. Perhaps the most amazing aspect of Sister Maria Pares' coaching career is the fact that she achieved an unmatched level of excellence while coaching basketball simultaneously at Sacred Heart and Canisius from 1982 to 1986.

 Although a singularly demanding coach, Sister Pares has never lost sight of the fact that excellence in any sport most often springs from enjoyment of the sport. Her common sense approach to coaching has fostered mature, cohesive teams which produced not only outstanding results, but also produced a legacy of their coach embodied in several graduates who coach women's college basketball at the Division I level. These coaches represent a generation of young women who have carried forth valuable lessons in perseverance, perfectionism, and fulfillment from their coach and teacher, Sister Maria Pares. Although a singularly demanding coach, Sister Pares has never lost sight of the fact that excellence in any sport most often springs from enjoyment of the sport.
