The Official Athletics Site of SUNY Canton

Francesco Palumbo, a sophomore on the baseball team, is not only a student-athlete but a constant face of the Athletics department. He is continually involved with different aspects of the department whether it be competition, keeping stats, interviewing student-athletes for videos for the website or editing video footage for highlights.

Last year his blog of the baseball team's trip to Florida garnered over 100,000 hits. This year he was crucial in the preparation and implementation of the inaugural Clemente Cup in Puerto Rico. From sending out e-mails weeks ahead of time to every baseball coach in Division III, drafting press releases to promote the Cup, helping to ensure that video and live stats could be made available to fans back home, he made sure it would be a success. 

He also documented everything that happened during the Puerto Rico trip in another fantastic blog that the Clemente's will use to help promote future tournaments. 

He spearheaded the creation of Roos Sports Media and has spent hours editing and creating dozens of highlight videos for the website. His knowledge and expertise has been so exceptional that he has trained other students in video editing.

This person always has a smile on his face and puts others before himself. He is one of the hardest working people to ever set foot on SUNY Canton's campus.
