Men’s and Women’s Timber Sports Defend Title at The Northeast Collegiate Woodsmen Conclave

Men’s and Women’s Timbersports Defend Title at The Northeast Collegiate Woodsmen Conclave

On April 25 and 26, SUNY ESF hosted the Northeast Collegiate Woodsmen Conclave at Oneida Shores County Park. This 2-day event gathered 12 colleges and over 300 athletes. This is ESF’s first time hosting in over 40-years and on top of all the hard work the students put in to set up and host the event, they came prepared to compete and dominated in several events. The men’s and women’s teams got first place for the second year in a row! The Jack and Jill 1 team proudly took home 3rd and an impressive performance by Jack and Jill 2 landed them 5th out of 10 teams in that division. 

Thank you to Brewerton Fire and Ambulance for providing standby services and to Onondaga County Parks for assistance throughout the weekend!
