HIGHLIGHTS

Softball Highlights

Congratulations to the varsity softball team as it opened WAC league play last night by defeating the Schoharie Storm 7-2, as Courtney Smith, Emma Menge, and Kiera Allen led the way for the Eagles.  The Storm jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead before the Eagles pushed across 4 runs in the third to take a 5-2 lead.  Courtney Smith ripped a double to drive in two runs to get the Eagles going in the 4th, and Kiera Allen followed with a two-run homerun.  Emma Menge pitched a gem in the circle, going the distance as she gave up zero earned runs on three hits while striking out 7.  Brielle Cameron added two hits and two runs scored for the Eagles.  The Eagles are back in action today as they take on Canajoharie.  The Eagles move to 1-0 in the league and 2-1 overall.

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

Bodie Cancio

Bodie is a welcome addition to the Modified Track and Field team.  He never complains, always carries items without being asked to, and generally helps out.  Bodie is also a fantastic teammate as he cheers for team members and continues to encourage others after finishing his workout.  He also makes positive connections between his sport and things he has learned in ELA classes, as his current reading essay is about the importance of winning versus enjoying the sport for your own goals.  Way to Go, Bodie.
