When Rye Country Day hosted the Staten Island Academy varsity soccer team in the first round of the NYSAIS Tournament this fall, their thoughts were on more than the game. C
oncerned about the devastating effects that Hurricane Sandy had on the Staten Island community, the Wildcats boys’ and girls’ soccer players and their parents conducted a special food drive in the days leading up to the tournament. They presented a feast of donations to the Staten Island Academy team prior to the match.
