Signing Day Celebrates Fall Champions, College-Bound Athletes and Future NCAA Competitors

Section 1 Champion Girls Cross Country TeamOn Tuesday November 10, 2026 friends and family gathered at the Learning Commons at Scarsdale High School to celebrate its fall Section 1 champions and student-athletes who have committed to continuing their athletic careers at the collegiate level during its annual Signing Day celebration. The event was led by Athletic Director Cindy Parrott and Assistant Athletic Director Jeff Weigel.

Asher CelmerParrott began the program by recognizing Adrianna Pettinelli, who won the individual Section 1 girls cross country championship, along with the Scarsdale girls cross country team, which captured the Section 1 title. Team members included Adrianna Pettinelli, Parvati Dabral, Uma Dabral, Emily Litman, Dalia Latzman, Morgan Greco, Isabella Davila, Sophia Fox Khodri, Emma Helman and Sally Liu, led by coaches Vinny Modaferri and Carlos Bedoya. Sophia Wu was also recognized as the Section 1 diving champion. Earning the title as a freshman, she became Scarsdale's third consecutive Section 1 diving champion.

The celebration continued with the recognition of nine student-athletes who will continue competing at the collegiate level next year. Parrott noted that “just under 7% of all high school athletes take their talents to compete at the college level,” making this an especially exciting milestone in their academic and athletic journeys.
