Buffalo Schools Launch Wrestling, Baseball, Softball Programs Before Sectionals Push — Storyblocks

Buffalo Public Schools launched its inaugural district-wide boys wrestling team, comprising 34 students from 13 different city schools, with practices at Lafayette High School.

New Wrestling Program Takes Shape

The new wrestling team draws participants across multiple city schools and holds sessions at Lafayette High School. This addition gives students a centralized option for the sport within the district. All Buffalo Athletic Programs utilize FinalForms as the mandatory platform for sports registration, which applies to the wrestling team as well.

Modified Baseball and Softball Added

BPS is launching new Modified Baseball and Softball teams for all 7th and 8th graders. Pre-registration for these teams remains open through FinalForms, the same system required for all district athletic activities including intramurals and summer camps.

City Honors Swim Team Advances

The City Honors Girls Varsity Swim Team recently broke two relay records in the 200 Free and 400 Free events and qualified for sectionals. This performance provides a recent benchmark as the season moves forward.

Local Facilities Support Growth

Nardin Academy features a 200,000-square-foot outdoor athletic complex with synthetic turf fields meeting all high school regulations for soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, and softball. These resources complement the district's expansion of programs and registration processes through FinalForms.

Registration details for the new teams and ongoing activities can be completed via the FinalForms platform used by all Buffalo athletic programs. Families interested in the modified baseball, softball, or wrestling teams should check the Buffalo Public Schools athletics resources for current instructions.
