We have had many great sports moments right here in the Southern Tier of New York, including the Binghamton Mets winning the AA Eastern League championship games in their 1992 inaugural season, in 1994, and for a third time in 2014.

Another great local sports moment was when the Binghamton  Senators hockey team won the AHL Calder Cup Championship in 2011.

And how about when the Maine-Endwell Little League Team made that amazing journey through the Little League World Series playoffs in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and walked away as world champs? Were you there?

For me, my favorite sports moment or memory in person was watching the New York Giants shut out the Minnesota Vikings in the 2020 NFC championship game sending the G-Men to the big game. What a thrill that was to be there in person.

Locally, it was when the Binghamton University Men's basketball team defeated UMBC in the 2009 season to win the America East crown and advance to the NCAA playoffs against Duke University.
