Last year, Seth received the American Chemical Society’s Penn York Section “Excellence in Chemistry” Award, and he is on track to receive an Advanced Regents Diploma with Honors and Mastery in math and science.

One of Seth’s greatest passions is sports, especially baseball. He has been a member of the varsity baseball team coached by Vince Gullo since eighth grade, and he has started since his freshman year. This year, he was a team captain and selected as a member of the Section VI Scholar-Athlete All-Western New York Team. Seth has also started on the varsity soccer team for four years, and he has been one of the team captains the past two years.

Throughout high school, Seth has participated in a wide variety of clubs and extracurricular activities in addition to sports. He has served on Student Council for three years as Freshman Class President, Sophomore Class President, and currently as Student-Body President. He is an active member of Interact Club, the National Honor Society, and he was one of the leads in his first Fredonia musical this year. He has also taken piano lessons from Kay Barlow since the age of four.

Outside of school, Seth is very involved in his church. He attends Saint Anthony’s parish, where he was an altar server for eight years, and is currently a lector and a member of the Catholic Youth Organization. He has also volunteered as a Little League baseball assistant coach for three years. Last summer, Seth was a delegate at The American Legion Boys’ State of New York (representing Post 59), where he was elected senator.

After graduation, Seth plans on attending Westminster College in Pennsylvania where he will study chemistry and play baseball.
