Huntington Notebook: Harborfields Basketball; 4th of July Sampler

Harborfield High School Tornadoes Take the Cake

Harborfields High School Boys Tornadoes Basketball Team capped off a historic season with a 67-58 victory over the previously unbeaten Tappan Zee in March to win the first New York State championship in the school’s history. The team rewrote the record books by winning their third straight Class A Suffolk County title; their third straight Small School County Championship; their second straight overall County Championship and their fourth straight League 5 Championship.

In honor and recognition of the historic 2012 Harborfields Tornadoes Champions, Councilman Mark Cuthbertson partnered with the Harborfields School district to have a sign dedicated in the championship team’s name on June 21 at the entrance to the high school. 

Those in attendance included John Valente (Athletic Director), Gary Schoer and Maggie Boba  (Board of Education), Chris Agostino (Head Coach),  School Superintendent Diana Todaro,  John Tampori (faculty member), along with David Ba, Justin Ringen, Thomas Zazzarino, Kevin Zabransky and Lucas Woodhouse representing the 2012 Tornadoes Championship Team.

“I congratulate the 2012 Harborfields High School Boys Tornadoes Basketball Team and coaches. They exemplify what strong commitment, dedication, teamwork and leadership will achieve in the pursuit of excellence,” said Cuthbertson. “Let this sign not only serve as a reminder of this gifted team’s remarkable achievement, but also a dynasty.”
