Comets’ Bancks, Negrin Visit Albany Street Elementary

Utica Comets John Negrin and Carter Bancks visited with students at Albany Street Elementary School on Monday.

The Comets players were invited to speak to the group of 2nd - 4th graders about good teamwork and anti-bullying.

Negrin said talking to the more than 200 kids was a great experience for him, and even after a long day at practice, being able to see the energy and appreciation from the kids makes him proud to be able to give back to the community.

After speaking, Negrin and Bancks stayed to sign autographs and take pictures with some of the children.
