Schuylerville Football Champs Honored

SCHUYLERVILLE — State Senator Jim Tedisco (R,C-Ballston Lake) attended the Schuylerville School District’s Board of Education meeting on December 16 to honor the Schuylerville High School varsity football team after their dramatic 26-20 victory over top-ranked Salamanca on December 7 to capture the Class C State championship.  

“If you know anything about sports, it’s difficult to win your league, it’s incredibly hard to win your section, but a state championship, that only comes around once in I don’t know how many years,” Tedisco said at the meeting. “I look around this room and I see a lot of pride and a lot of love.”

Tedisco presented the team and Head Coach John Bowen with a Senate Proclamation.  

Tedisco will further honor the state champs in the new year when session resumes with an invitation to come to the Capitol and be recognized in the Senate Chamber with passage of a resolution to enshrine their victory into the annals of the state legislature.
