Our Lafayette Varsity Boys Soccer team battled with heart, grit, and determination in yesterday’s NYSPHSAA State Championship. Although we came up short on the scoreboard, our student-athletes gained an incredible experience competing at such a high level.
We couldn’t be more proud of their effort, sportsmanship, and the way they represented their school, our district.
