SARATOGA SPRINGS — 45 years later, one of the best teams from Saratoga Springs High School to take the hardwood reunited.

A reunion of the 1977-78 Saratoga varsity boys basketball team was held Sept. 2, with several players and coaches gathering from the team that captured the Foothills Council Championship, and went unbeaten until a one-point loss to Niskayuna in the Section 2 Class A Championship game.

“What a wonderful group of men,” said then-Saratoga varsity assistant coach Rich Johns of the reunion in a Facebook post. “A ton of laughs and a closeness that can’t be matched. Thank you all for the great memories.”
