Lettermen Foundation, GHS Athletics Recognize 2020 Twelve-Season Winners

To maintain three different sports over a four-year career at Guilderland High School is a remarkable achievement – one that the Guilderland Lettermen Foundation and the Guilderland Athletic Department recognize with a Twelve-Season Award.

In 2020, the Lettermen Foundation, now in its 23nd year, is collaborating with the Guilderland High School athletic department to honor the achievement of nine student athletes, hanging a banner in the student-athletes name that will commemorate their achievement.

“It’s an honor for the Lettermen Foundation to support these great representatives of our athletic program,” said Lettermen Foundation Vice President Greg Barcomb, a 2007 Guilderland High School graduate. “As a former Guilderland athlete, I have great respect for those who show such great effort and consistency in different sports across an entire high school career.”
