Pacheco overcame the tragic loss of his siblings
When Isiah Pacheco was still a high schooler, his brother Travoise Cannon lost his life, as a result of a break-in in his apartment complex in 2016. Still recovering from Travoise’s loss, Pacheco lost his sister Celeste, who was also murdered in South Jersey. Stories have it that, Pacheco played a game for Vineland shortly after his sister’s burial. Despite coaches asking him to sit out in mourning, the game was the last resort for the then-teenager to release himself from the gruesome reality.
