BREAKING NEWS:
The Girls Track Team won the ESDAA Championship on Saturday May 12th in Maryland! Congratulations to our girls!!
ESDAA TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIP RESULTS
For the first time in the 35 year history of the girls ESDAA track and field championships, our lady bison’s captured the 1st place championship title. We were one of nine teams comprised of both division 1(large schools) & division 2(small schools) in Frederick, Maryland to have competed in this annual tournament. Although our expectations are always high for this squad, we needed to consider that we were only bringing nine athletes, and we were going head to head against many Division I perennial powerhouses. The thought that we could actually upset every one of these teams was beyond any one of our wildest dreams. That being said, you can teach skill but you can’t coach heart! The lady bison’s woke up early for the track meet Saturday morning ready to make a statement! Not only was the message received loud and clear, but we broke some records in the process. The competition consisted of 16 events and we finished in the top 3 in all but three of them (13/16). The lady bison’s racked up; 6 gold medals, 7 silver medals, 3 bronze medals, 1 ESDAA record, & 3 personal records. We finished the afternoon with a grand total of 139 points and beat the 2nd place team (New Jersey School for the Deaf) by 44 points.
As per tradition at the tournament the all around winning team accepts their awards and then takes a victory lap around the track to relish in their triumph. It was a nice ending to a good season and to a fantastic 2011-2012 girls varsity sports campaign. To all of our seniors (Suada Abdulkadir, Sarah Flowers, and Crystle Marion) who competed in their last ESDAA tournament, thank you and good luck. Finally, thanks to all of our supporters, we could not have done it without your help!

Lou Pennella Classic - Saturday May 5th - Girls Recap
What was supposed to have been three teams participating in the Lou Pennella track classic this weekend, was unfortunately limited to just two teams. The squad from Pennsylvania School for the Deaf ran into some transportation issues and were unable to make the trip up to Western NY. That being said, it turned out to be a beautiful day for a track meet between SMSD vs Rochester School for the Deaf (RSD) and a good opportunity to proceed through all the events that the girls will participate in next weekend at the annual ESDAA tournament in Maryland.
The Rochester girls team is still in the initial “building” phase of their program so there were some events that they were unable to fill. The Lady Bison’s not only filled each event but put forth their best effort and it resulted in a 94-12 victory. We placed 1st in every event except one and had four personal records broken. WAY TO GO GIRLS! We have one more meet before we head off to the tournament, so please continue to support our team.
Personal Records that were broken:
Shakenya Ward Brassell: 100 high hurdles- 20.3 seconds, High Jump- 4’8”
Monica Burger: 1600m (1 mile)- 7:20.6
Jamila Torres: Long Jump- 11’7”

Despite the beautiful weather yesterday and a lot of great individual efforts by the Lady Bison’s, we were unable to come away with a victory over the combined team of Cardinal O’Hara/Nichols. The final score was 63-44, however, the Lady Bison’s placed first in more than ½ the events and we achieved 3 individual personal records throughout the course of the track meet. It should also be noted that rookies, Monica Burger and Jamila Torres really paid their dues yesterday by pushing their bodies to their physical limit and truly gaining the respect of their teammates, coaches, and the team they competed against.
