Summary
Superintendent Dr. Bonk told attendees at the Wappingers Junior High ceremony that Roy C. Ketcham High School's baseball team won and will play in the New York state final, with the game scheduled for 10 a.m. and the school's incoming principal remaining in Binghamton.
Superintendent Dr. Bonk announced at the Wappingers Junior High eighth-grade ceremony that Roy C. Ketcham High School’s baseball team advanced to the New York state final after a 4-2 victory.
"They won today, 4 to 2," Superintendent Dr. Bonk said, adding that Principal Sipe of Roy C. Ketcham High School remained in Binghamton to attend the final. "He'll be there tomorrow morning for the game. It starts at 10:00."
The superintendent framed the team’s success as a point of community pride and encouraged students to take advantage of school activities and opportunities.
