Athletics

The NYSPHSAA is proud to recognize student athletes who excel in the classroom. Too often student athletes are only recognized for their performance in the gym or on the field. The Section VI Scholar Athlete program (Individual and Team) was developed to recognize the hard work that student athletes do off the field.
