Honoring Coach Persio “Andy” Capellan
Last month, State Senator Shelley B. Mayer presented Coach Persio “Andy” Capellan with a framed proclamation in honor of his retirement after 44 years of coaching girls track & field and cross country at New Rochelle High School. During his time coaching, he led his teams to a total of 66 league titles, 58 Westchester County Titles, 42 Section 1 Class Sectional Championships, and 7 national championships. Congratulations to Coach Andy on his well deserved retirement. It was particularly special to hear his story of transitioning from coaching football to girls track and field.
