Every Byron-Bergen affiliated winter varsity sports team achieved the New York State Public High School Athletic Association (NYSPHSAA) Scholar-Athlete Team award. The winter sports teams are boys basketball, girls basketball, boys swimming, girls swimming, and wrestling.
“To say that this has been a challenging year for students would be a gross understatement,” said Byron-Bergen Athletic Director Rich Hannan. “We all know what kids have lost in this year, so the fact that these athletes stuck to their high academic standards is so impressive. I couldn’t be prouder of them in this time of uncertainty. They are doing, and have done, an amazing job!”
