The Unified Sports program is growing in Western New York, but many of us are not familiar with the initiative.
Our guests explain how "unified" means inclusion, and how the program is impacting hundreds of students locally. You can watch a video of the program in action at Gates Chili High School and Spencerport High School. Our guests:
- Billy Harmon, senior at Gates Chili High School, and student athlete with Unified basketball
- Michael Saporito, tenth grader at Gates Chili High School, and student athlete with Unified basketball
- Kimberle Ward, superintendent of Gates Chili Central School District
- Tray Burton, Unified basketball coach at Edison Career and Technology High School in the Rochester City School District
- Mike Murray, athletic director for Churchville-Chili Central School District
- Dennis Fries, past president and current liaison to Unified basketball with Section V
