Indians immortalized
Libertys Block L Athletic Awards laud tribes best
By RICHARD A. ROSS
LIBERTY, NYAs the saying goes, it takes a village to raise a child and certainly the same can be said for Libertys athletic program as it continues to return to its former glory.
Under the energetic direction of athletic director Jason Semo and the united efforts of the school administration, the board of education, an immensely supportive community and a cadre of fine coaches and athletes, Liberty took another step forward in 2008-09.
