Huguenots Triumph! Congratulations Continue for State Champs
The celebrations continue for the state champion New Rochelle Huguenots football team. The City School District of New Rochelle is planning a victory assembly at New Rochelle High School later this month. Local dignitaries will be invited to the event, which will celebrate the athletes, cheerleaders and band.

The New Rochelle community, which brimmed with pride a year ago when the Huguenots made it to the state championship at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, grew even more elated this time when the team returned to win the Class AA state title on Nov. 30.

“It definitely made it that much sweeter,” said team co-captain Corey Baron, who played in both games at the Dome.

They did more than win. They shut out their opponents, McQuaid Jesuit High School of Rochester, 28-0, to finish the season undefeated, 13-0.

“We worked hard all season,” Baron said. “That’s what we do here. Our will to win just put us over the top.”

When they arrived home on Sunday afternoon, a police escort ushered them through the city to the front of New Rochelle High School, the cruisers’ lights flashing and sirens sounding. The sounds of the police cars then gave way to cheers from fans and family who braved icy sleet and rain to greet them as they stepped off the bus.

“I’m so proud of these students and the coaching team,” said District Director of Athletics Steve Young. “They worked hard all year. The students are dedicated and they listen. They had this goal and they achieved it.”
