Celebrating Our Red Jacket Athletic Hall of Fame Inductees

In December, we had the privilege of honoring a group of incredible individuals who have made a lasting impact on Red Jacket athletics. This year’s inductees into the Red Jacket Athletic Hall of Fame represent the dedication, hard work, and excellence that continue to define our athletic programs.

We are excited to celebrate the achievements of the following inductees:

Lance Frisinger – Former Boys Varsity Basketball Coach

Lance Frisinger dedicated nearly three decades to coaching Red Jacket’s boys basketball teams. From 1976 to 2005, he served as head coach of the varsity boys basketball team, achieving 277 wins and earning numerous accolades. Under his leadership, the team won Finger Lakes West Championships in 1989, 1994, 1995, and 2005, and took home the Section V Class C Championship in 2005. Lance was also named Section V Coach of the Year three times and received the NYS Coaches Honor Award in 2005. Beyond coaching, he shaped young minds as a teacher of AP Economics and Psychology and served as Senior Class Advisor.

Robert "Bob" Bounds – Former Student Athlete

Bob Bounds was a standout three-sport athlete during his high school years at Red Jacket. Between 1960 and 1962, he competed in football, basketball, and track, earning multiple honors. In track, Bob helped lead his team to league championships, finishing first in events like the 800 relay and shot put. He also earned recognition as a top defender in football and contributed greatly to a basketball team that finished with a 20-1 record. Outside of sports, Bob has remained active in the community, coaching, supporting the RJ Booster Club, and volunteering with the Twin Cities Lions Club.

Christie Raymo – Former Student Athlete

Christie Raymo made her mark as an athlete in both basketball and soccer, competing in five years of varsity girls basketball and four years of varsity girls soccer. She was a key player on three Section V championship teams and earned a spot on the Sectional All-Tournament Team. Christie’s basketball achievements include being named to the Finger Lakes West All-Star team and scoring over 1,200 career points. She was also selected for the 1998 Ronald McDonald All-Star Game. Christie’s talent and leadership helped lead the 1988-89 girls varsity basketball team to a remarkable 22-4 season and a Section V Class C Championship.

1988-89 Girls Varsity Basketball Team

This outstanding team, coached by Keith Swank (Head) and Bill Henry (Assistant), achieved great success during the 1988-89 season. They finished with a 22-4 record and claimed the Finger Lakes West Championship. The team also won the Section V Class C Championship and went on to compete in the Far Western Regionals. Despite their strong efforts, they narrowly lost in the NYSPHSAA Class C Semis. This team's remarkable season and dedication to each other and their community have earned them a place in Red Jacket history.

We are incredibly proud to recognize these individuals and teams for their achievements. Their hard work, passion, and commitment to excellence have made a lasting impact on our school and community. Please join us in congratulating them on their well-deserved induction into the Red Jacket Athletic Hall of Fame!
