SCHENECTADY The influence that Guyanese student-athletes have had on Schenectady High School sports teams over the past two decades is undeniable.
“Probably every program has been impacted in some way,” high school athletic director Steve Boynton said. “Schenectady welcomed them. The high school welcomed them. They have definitely been an asset to the athletic department.”
Many Guyanese student-athletes have helped fill out high school team rosters and provided needed depth, and some have played key starting roles. Others have stepped ahead to lead their respective teams, and a select few, such as distance runner Shazim Permaul, have left a lasting mark.
