Farmingdale, a tight‑knit community on Long Island, recently marked a symbolic milestone by christening two of its intersections with the names Dylan Mingo Way and Kayden Mingo Way.
A Hometown Tribute
The brothers’ basketball journey began under the guidance of their older sibling, Dalique Mingo, who starred for Farmingdale’s Dalers and sparked the younger duo’s passion for the game.
Before transferring to Long Island Lutheran, where they helped elevate the program to national prominence, Kayden and Dylan honed their skills on the neighborhood courts of Farmingdale, dreaming of one day reaching the college ranks.
Looking Ahead
Now, Kayden prepares to join Baylor University as a sophomore transfer from Penn State, while Dylan is set to arrive as a freshman, each carrying the expectations of a community that has watched them grow from local standouts to rising collegiate talents.
Residents and alumni alike view the street naming as more than a gesture; it is a permanent reminder of the brothers’ impact on the town’s sporting culture and a source of inspiration for the next generation of aspiring athletes.
