boy's Soccer team for ending their 19-2-2 season as New York State 
Section V Class A Champions.

  Last year the team won the school's first state championship, but had 
to share the title when the game ended in a tie. This year, the 
patriots rose to the top again, and won their first official title, the 
first Class A state title in 15 years.
  This team truly deserves to end the season with such a rewarding 
finish. Years of hard work and dedication resulted in a season that 
will go down in school history, and will be remembered always. The 
players, coaching staff, and parents should be proud of this exciting 
accomplishment.
  On behalf of the people of the 25th District of New York I would like 
to congratulate the following players, coaches, and bench personnel for 
this achievement: Mike Annechino, Steve DeMaria, Brian Annechino, Mike 
Evans, Jason Maher, Feliks Kogan, Felix Liverman, Tom Doran, John 
Koestner, Adam Agresti, Guilherme Fonseca, Greg Herbert, Brian Usinger, 
Matt Malone, Dave Carr, Jamarr Miller, Eric Schomske, Tom Gordon, C.J. 
Pruner, Adam Benson, Dan Bergan, Ari Silbermann, Jaden Rocco, Mike 
Lentine, Matt Bader, Ryan Kota, Jon Farber, Matt Kavanaugh, Ryan 
Michaels, Kyle Zinter, Ed Silco, Varsity Coach Jon Butterworth, 
Assistant Coach Dave Heise, Program Coach Tim Graves, Assistant Alissa 
Vanmulem, JV Coach John Cotsonas, Frosh Coach Al Pisano, and Trainer 
Jen Stantz.
