Mr. Michael Bowler was named New York State Coach of the Year in boys lacrosse by the National Federation of High School sports. The award is presented to recipients who have made the greatest impact to student-athletes in their respective sport. It also recognizes a level of consistent excellence over a significant amount of time.

A coach for more than four decades, Mr. Bowler passed away earlier this school year.

“What a great honor for the Bowler family. Generations of players benefited from Coach Bowler's leadership, knowledge of the game and commitment to his student-athletes. It was a great honor working with him as a coach and conversing with him as a friend,” said Mr. Charles M. Delargy, Director of Health, Physical Education, Intramurals and Athletics.
