Saints Go Perfect 12-0 to Win Potsdam Summer League

The Saints capped off a dream season Friday night, defeating Abusement Park 60-56 to claim the 2026 NoCo Men's Summer League championship in Potsdam, New York.

The victory marked the team's 12th straight win in a flawless season under coach Jack Gordon. The championship game came down to the wire, with just four points separating the two teams when time ran out.

Ten dedicated players made up the championship roster: Andy Downs, Erik Grier, Kenny Collins, Chris Downs Jr., Sam Roiger, Brennan Harmer, Zadok Roiger, Drew Harmer, Ayomi Odetoyinbo and Kaleb Cook. Their commitment to showing up all summer paid off in the best possible way.

Summer leagues like NoCo give community members a chance to stay active, build friendships, and represent their neighborhoods with pride. The games brought residents together every week to cheer on their neighbors.

The Ripple Effect

This championship wouldn't have happened without strong community support. Potsdam Arby's sponsored the entire league, while Timber Tavern, Park Bros, Hoof & Horn, Foster's Heating & Plumbing and Street Meats Food Truck all pitched in to keep the season running smoothly.

When local businesses invest in recreational programs, everybody wins. Players get a chance to compete and stay healthy, families enjoy free or affordable entertainment, and the whole town gets a reason to come together and celebrate.

The Saints proved that small-town sports still matter, and that perfect seasons are possible when talent meets teamwork.
