The Tri-Valley Strong Support System

The Tri-Valley Central School sports support system is alive and well as was evident on the weekend of September 17-18 (Home Coming Weekend) for the boys varsity football team and the dedication of the Joe and Missy Iatauro (Iatauro Sports Complex).
Whether its a winning or losing season the Tri-Valley sports community brings forth strong support for its sports teams and athletic events.
Kudos go out to Tri-Valley Cheerleading Coach Leighanne Walsh for her coordinating efforts in organizing and conducting the Sept. 17 Pep Rally held in the high school gym. Great fun and cute games and a lot of camaraderie took place prior to the lighting and enjoyment by all of the homecoming bonfire adjacent to the high school parking lot.
The strong community support continued at noon Sept. 18 with the dedication of the Iatauro Sports Complex which houses the football-soccer field and stadium and all the track facilities. Retired athletic director Joe Iatauro loves to get his hands on the microphone and both his sincere thanks and often humorous ceremonial remarks were enjoyed by all. He and his wife's outstanding sports teams achievements will remain forever in Tri-Valley sports fans memories.
The fine tribute to Joe and Elaine "Missy" Iatauro was also a special day for the Tri-Valley sports community and gave honor that was due to this legendary couple and their tireless devotion to the school district as Joe and Missy coached 110 and 96 consecutive seasons respectively for the "Bears" of Tri-Valley.
The Iatauro's were known for their great ability to inspire their Tr-Valley athletes and the large crowd Saturday showed deep appreciation at this dedication ceremonies.
