Congrats to Sachem North’s Brody Mauro on being named the Suffolk County Boys Lacrosse Rookie of the Year!

As just a seventh grader, Brody became the youngest player in Sachem lacrosse history to compete at the varsity level, holding his own against some of the county’s top talent while helping lead the Arrows on an unforgettable championship run.

His hard work, determination and willingness to learn made an immediate impact, and this honor is a testament to the bright future ahead. 🏹

Our talented Sachem Marching Band and Color Guard recently performed at the World Cup Experience at Stony Brook University, helping celebrate the excitement surrounding the 2026 FIFA World Cup and a truly unique moment in American sports history.

Representing Sachem with pride, passion, and excellence, the band and color guard delivered an outstanding performance that showcased the dedication and talent of our students and staff.

Bravo to everyone involved for making the Sachem community proud and being part of this special event! 🎺🥁🏳️
