Roscoe Central School honors spring sports season athletes

By Rob Potter
ROSCOE — On Thursday evening, Roscoe Central School administrators, board of education members and staff members honored the athletes, coaches and volunteers who participated in sports during the recently completed spring season.
Team awards were presented to the five RCS teams which competed this spring: boys’ varsity golf, girls’ varsity golf, varsity softball, junior varsity baseball and modified baseball.
Several athletes earned special awards and honors.
Athletic Director Fred Ahart presented senior trophy awards to Clay Banks (boys’ golf), Britni Brookins (softball), Kasse Brock (softball), Brighid Fogarty (softball), David Lake (boys’ golf), Joshua Lawrence (boys’ golf) and Rebecca Welton (girls’ golf).
In addition, Kasse Brock and Kate Papa earned trophies for earning at least 10 varsity letters during their athletic careers at RCS.
Brock was also recognized for being the school’s Orange County Interscholastic Athletic Association (OCIAA) Scholar Athlete for the 2007-2008 academic year.
In his closing remarks, Superintendent Carmine Giangreco fondly recalled his days as a scholastic baseball player and offered some advice to the student-athletes who will be returning to RCS in September.
“You need to get out and play,” he said. “You have a whole summer ahead of you. Go out and enhance your games.
“Go out and play your sport,” he continued. “Learn the sport, enjoy the sport.”
The members of the spring sports teams were as follows:
