Then, The Board of Education extends props when the champs received the Rye Recognition of Excellence Awards from Superintendent Dr. Eric Byrne at the Tuesday, December 5th board meeting. On hand to congratulate the girls were County Executive George Latimer, Lisa Urban, chief of staff to New York State Assemblyman Steve Otis and Rye Mayor Josh Cohn:
