Sports Dynasty in Ossining High School?

Sports dynasty in Ossining High School?!

     Ossining High has never been known to produce amazing sports teams. Yes there have been sensational athletes that have come and gone, but no team to hold its on in a regional/state tournament. That was until a couple years ago, and the birth of a dynasty.

      Of the last 5 state tournaments, Ossining Girls Basketball has won 4 of them, consecutively. Now, because of this, the village of Ossining is known for their excellent Girls Basketball team. Some may say this is wrong because it takes away from the academic excellence going on in Ossining as well. So, the community and people of Ossining needed to be heard and really listened to.

      The community had nothing but positive things to say about the team in its entirety. A graduate of Ossining High, Jorge Torres (23), kept his firm belief that this team impacted the community in a positive way and really "brought the community together" and the town of Ossining now "stands behind the team". Also, adding that the team is  a dynasty because of the girls that left from the first state championship team, and there not being really much change in philosophy and chemistry between the girls and as a team as a whole.

     Speaking to Joseline Mendez, junior at Ossining, gave a more inside approach to the team and what the school thinks of the team. After speaking about the increase in school spirit, she also noted that there is no bigger turnout for any school event than when the Girls play vs Peekskill or any other big name school at Ossining High.

    FC Barcelona, NY Yankees, New England Patriots....Ossining High School Varsity Girls Basketball? Guess these teams aren't all so different after all.
