GEDDES, N.Y. -- The heat isn't stopping young athletes from around New York state from taking their skills to the fairgrounds.

Teenage basketball players are getting ready for a big game at the Sports Activity Center.

The team is made up juniors and seniors from across the state. They had practice Wednesday in the high heat, but their coach says they’re staying well hydrated. 

The center will also host other events during the fair, including a boxing tournament this weekend.
