The Spa Catholic baseball team has etched its name into New York State history by capturing consecutive State Championships in 2024 and 2025, a rare accomplishment that places the program among only four teams in Section 2 to achieve the feat.
A Celebration at Saratoga
The milestone was marked on the historic grounds of Saratoga Race Course, where the team gathered for a ceremonial trophy presentation that drew players, coaches, and a handful of distinguished guests.
Dylan Davis, a standout player, was presented with a trophy on the track, a moment that underscored the team’s gratitude for individual contributions amid collective success.
Coaches Alphonse Lambert and Dave Long stood alongside the athletes during the ceremony, their presence reflecting years of mentorship that helped shape the squad’s cohesion.
Among the attendees were Pierce Byrne, a Siena University student, and former Major League player Paul Lo Duca, both of whom praised the team’s dedication and the sense of camaraderie that has defined the group since childhood.
Captain Carson Moser, who has played alongside many of his teammates since elementary school, spoke about the unity that propelled the team, noting that the bond forged over years of shared experience was the foundation of their dominance.
Looking ahead, Moser will continue his baseball career at Duke University this fall, carrying the lessons of teamwork and perseverance to the next level of competition.
The achievement has resonated throughout the local community, sparking pride and serving as a testament to what can be accomplished when talent, hard work, and shared history align.
