Ja:göh Cheyenne Serenka (Seneca, Turtle clan, daughter of Julia and Joe Serenka, granddaughter of Alfred Wheeler, Karen Williams, Barb Henry and Michael Serenka) and the Orchard Park 12u District Softball Team, a group of talented young athletes who have achieved an extraordinary accomplishment. They were selected to represent the entire WNY Region at the New York State Championship in Smithtown, NY, in Long Island from July 13th-16th, 2023. This is an unprecedented achievement and a proud moment for Orchard Park Little League. For the first time in the league’s history, a district softball team has earned the opportunity to compete on a national stage. The incredible dedication, perseverance, and skills throughout the team’s journey and their hard work paid off as they took the championship.

Way to go, Chey Babes!!
