Fall sports teams recognized for academic performance

Congratulations to Duanesburg student athletes from the four fall sports teams! 
The teams were named Scholar Athlete teams for their performance in the classroom as well as their successes on the athletic fields. 
To achieve this honor, high school teams in New York must maintain a cumulative average of 90 percent or above.

Duanesburg High School had four of its five Fall sports teams qualify to be New York State Scholar Athlete Teams. Pictured above are the Girls' Track, Volleyball and Soccer teams.

The “Wright” stuff

With a total of 136 goals, girls’ soccer forward Nha Wright became Duanesburg’s all-time leading scorer. Wright scored 33 goals this year smashing the previous record of 106 goals held by Amanda Traver.

Speaking of soccer…
