Agreed, Yorktown doesn't get much support from other Section 1 schools (Mahopac has one A title and Bronxville has one C title), but Yorktown's 7 titles (they won an "A" title when there was only a single bracket) ranks 3rd to only West Genesee (15 A titles) and Ward Melville (8 A titles).

If Yorktown isn't considered dominant or great, then I guess only West Genesee has earned that label.


Yorktown is a consistently strong program always in the hunt for a state title. The coaches are dedicated, the players are dedicated and the town is supportive. Bronxville has modeled itself after Yorktown and even hired a bunch of Yorktown alumni to coach. Section 1 will strengthen and Yorktown's dominance will be challenged which is good for all involved.
