West Genesee fires long-time basketball coach Zagata
The West Genesee school board accepted coach Zagata’s resignation after a nine-year tenure marked by controversy over promotions of two freshmen, parental complaints, and the athletic director’s son’s departure. Palumb says optics and personal factors influenced the decision, while administrators cite a private matter and a push for new direction. Gavin Vesp’s possible transfer to Shenendehowa is noted amid the upheaval.
