“We’ve had some really good athletes at Baldwinsville who have moved on and played collegiately and professionally, but we’ve never had a student-athlete here who has been as driven as Jason Savacool. What separates him is his attention to all the little things.”
Dave Penafeather
Head Coach - Baker coach
