Allegany Co Press Release - Recognition of Wellsville State Champions

 

Wellsville State Champions Recognized by Allegany County

 


Wellsville Central School’s State Champions in softball and shotput were recently honored for their extraordinary athletic achievements in 2024. At a September meeting of the Allegany County Legislature, the Board welcomed both the softball team and shot-put Champion Kaylee Oswald to recognize their achievements and offer its congratulations and appreciation.

 


Oswald, a senior at Wellsville C.S., is now a two-time State Champion in girls shotput. Her winning throw of 44 feet 4.75 inches not only won her the state title but also broke the Wellsville school record.

 

Also honored was the 2024 Wellsville C.S. Varsity Softball team, which brought home a state title of their own in June.  Their 7-1 victory over Schuylerville High School secured the first ever Class B state title for Wellsville and was the culmination of an incredible 23-1 season.

 

In remarks to the athletes, Board Chairman W. Brooke Harris congratulated them on their efforts and dedication. “The Board is proud of your achievements, and we thank you for representing Wellsville and Allegany County so well. We commend you for your hard work and commitment to athletic excellence and sportsmanship. I can’t wait to hear about your future successes. Congratulations!”
