Team went undefeated, winning all seven meets in their league.

Led by head coach Karyn Storan, the team featured four seniors, three juniors, four sophomores, and two middle Udall students. 

All-County performer Paula Pecorella led the team in uneven bars and floor exercise while seventh-grader Hanna Battaglini won the team's Most Improved award.

Here are other the team's leading scorers in all events (a star indicates team captains):

Vault: Victoria Scuteri* and Sydney Matone

Uneven Bars: Paula Pecorella and Victoria Scuteri

Balance Beam: Kailey Lyons* and Blair Engeldrum*

Floor Exercise: Paula Pecorella and Jessica Lutrario

You can thank all these POS politicians for the new gun legislation designed to make law abidingRead More citizens give up their second amendment rights out of sheer frustration and incontinence of owning a gun legally for increases in savage on citizen violence. This is only the beginning and in short time many New Yorker's will be forced to remain in their homes fearing one of these animals will make them their pray. I for one believe in the old adage, it's better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

Has anyone been able to find out if we are losing money renting this building to this for profitRead More preschool? If I under stood correctly from previous post's, there may be some friendship with one or more BOE members which paved the way for their lease.

I think Proposition 2 is a great idea, in the current structure you have to "call out" anRead More individual basically saying "I think you are doing a particularly bad job". Politics get dirty enough as is and I think this will increase participation and ultimately give us a better Board of Education.
