Memorable night on the mat: honoring our senior Falcons

Senior-athletes with coaches and loved ones

The Albany High School wrestling team celebrated seniors Zeta Schofield and Luis Carrasquillo-Torres in a special ceremony before the Falcons’ match against Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake on Wednesday night.

Surrounded by family, friends and fans, each senior walked out with their loved ones to receive a blue rose presented by their coaches. A touching moment included the sharing of a cherished wrestling memory from each student-athlete's time on the team.

Schofield has been part of the wrestling team for two years, while Carrasquillo-Torres has competed for three years. We are grateful for their dedication and wish them success in their post-high school endeavors.

During the match, our Falcons displayed tremendous effort but ultimately lost to the Spartans, 49-17. Three of our student-athletes secured victories in their individual weight classes:

  • MarQuez Rouse
  • Jayden Moses
  • Khadavier Farmer

Join us in cheering on our Falcons at the King Bison Invitation at Shaker on Saturday, Jan. 25, beginning at 9:30 a.m.

Let’s go Falcons!
