The STAQ boys on the Corning Varsity team started off with an electric performance at the Elmira Invitational, helping to bring home a...

STAQ is proud of our girls as they raced and supported each other, even while competing for different teams. The teamwork, camaraderie, sportsmanship, and collaboration these girls demonstrated by both representing their home teams, yet also...
