NYS Section VTeams No Longer Playing

There are a number of teams that have either dropped the boys program or combined with other teams to form a new team.

Since player records are earned while playing for a specific team, each time teams are combined they create a new team record. For example, Batavia played as a single team and then joined with Attica to form a new team and then combined with both Avon and Notre Dame to form another new team, each with their own identify and records.

Below are links to information from the teams that are no longer active.


Avon

2013-2017

Avon sponsored a Varsity team from 2013 to 2017, playing as a GRALL team and as a Class C and, in 2017 as a Class D team. Their final record was 14-62.
