A message from the Athletic Director

Athletic Director's Update #1

July 16, 2020

Dear Students, Parents, and Coaches,

I hope this email finds you healthy and taking time to stay physically active while adhering to social distancing guidelines. I wanted to share with you that today, The New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) announced significant adjustments to the fall season. First, and foremost the new start date for the fall is Monday, September 21st. Hopefully, at that time, we will be in a place where we can hold our season. As such, registration will now open on August 21st.  

If sports are not able to commence in September as planned, a condensed fall season will be rescheduled in the spring. The following is the proposed calendar to date to support this adjustment:

  • Season I (Winter Sports): January 4, 2021 - March 13, 2021
    Sports: basketball (girls & boys), bowling (girls & boys), gymnastics, ice hockey (girls & boys), indoor track & field (girls & boys), skiing (girls & boys), swimming (boys), wrestling, competitive cheer. 
       
  • Season II (Fall Sports): March 1, 2021 - May 8, 2021
    Sports: football, cross country (girls & boys), field hockey, soccer (girls & boys), swimming (girls), volleyball (girls & boys), Unified bowling.
     
  • Season III (Spring Sports): April  5, 2021 - June 12, 2021
    Sports: baseball, softball, golf (girls & boys), lacrosse (girls & boys), tennis (girls & boys), outdoor track & field (girls & boys), Unified basketball.    

I will continue to keep you posted on any important updates as information becomes available. As always, please reach out to me with any questions or concerns.

Sincerely,

Mr. Jason Semo
Director of Athletics, Health and Physical Education
