He scored 33 runs and had 26 RBI in 68 at-bats and went 3-0 with one save and a 3.33 ERA in 11 appearances on the mound, striking out 24 and walking just three in 21 innings. In hockey, he scored 22 goals, and tied for second-most on the team. He will be playing for the Hudson Valley Empire State Game baseball team this month.

Jack Miller
Miller was the captain of both the football and wrestling teams, role for which he was named a Con Ed Athlete of the Week last year. He was a two-way starter and honorable-mention all-section in football, and in wrestling, his victory in the 160-pound weight class gave Mamaroneck its first ever win at the 36th annual Mamaroneck Wrestling Tournament. He was named the top male student/athlete at Mamaroneck by the Mamaroneck-Larchmont Old Timers' Association, and he will play lightweight football and study biology at The University of Pennsylvania next year.

Joe Naclerio
Mamaroneck hockey won 18 games, more than just two other teams in the state (Suffern and West Genesee), with Naclerio leading the way. The senior led the team in both goals (28) and assists (26) and recorded his 100th career point. He was named the Conference 2 co-player of the year as Mamaroneck was ranked as high as No. 4 in the state before losing the sectional semifinals.
Hayden Novikoff
With a 72 at Scarsdale Country Club and an 81 at Dutchess Country Club, Novikoff placed fifth in the Section 1 tournament with a score of 183 and was one of just nine golfers from Section 1 to earn a place at the state tournament. Novikoff qualified for sectionals with a differential of 3.9, earning all-League honors in the process. The senior, who will play club golf for Richmond next year, carded an 83-84 at states.
