Kelsey Kittleson- WNYT- March 13, 2017- 6pm- WNYA- March 13, 2017- 10pm We've seen 13 Kids Who Care who donate their time at hospitals but tonight is different, because along with donating her time there, she is also a patient. Kelsey Kittleson is battling a terrible disease, but she's not letting that stop her from doing what she's always done, give with all her heart. Jahmale Dickson- WNYT- March 20, 2017- 6pm- WNYA- March 20, 2017- 10pm Jahmale has had a burning desire to be a police officer since 2014.

That's because he's not the one taking the lessons, he's giving them. Bob Kovachick is here to introduce us to Mat Adler. Bob Kovachick got to see Mat in action and the way he interacts, you know he's making a difference. Athlete of the Week Christian Nash- WNYT- January 3, 2017- 6pm- January 8, 2017- 8pm- The indoor track season is approaching a prestigious weekend and our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week will be a part of it, in at least a couple events. Christian Nash may have been a little late getting into the running game but his name is now well-known across the section. When it comes to running, Nash finds his pre-race motivation in music but not just any song. Kyle Fairclough- WNYT- January 10, 2017- 6pm- January 15, 2017- 11pm Our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week recently surpassed a personal milestone on the basketball court but it's a daily struggle that really makes Kyle Fairclough stand out.

Lizzy Congiusta- WNYT- January 17, 2017- 6pm -January 22, 2017- 11pm A new camera for Christmas spawned the creation of a photography club by Lizzy Congiusta at Shaker High School and from that many opportunities have developed but for a much bigger picture of our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week.

Kayleigh Urdang- WNYT- February 7, 2017- 6pm- February 13, 2017- 11pm Personal tragedy struck the Stillwater bowling team this season and from it, Kayleigh Urdang and her teammates have grown closer and more determined. As a leader of the classroom, community and on the lanes, Urdang fits the bill as our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week. The news of longtime Coach John Villa's cancer diagnosis stunned the Stillwater bowling team but it hit Urdang especially hard. Coach Villa was the biggest influence in her bowling success and since his death a week and a half ago, Urdang and her teammates have found a heightened sense of motivation. Kevin Mainello- WNYT- February 21, 2017- 6pm- February 26, 2017- 11pm 2001. That's the last time LaSalle won a sectional championship in hockey but the Cadets have as good a shot as any this season and a big reason for that is the scoring, toughness and leadership of our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week.

LaSalle is experiencing as much success this season as it has in more than a decade. Sarah Stewart- WNYT- February 28, 2017- March 5, 2017- 11pm Yesterday, the North Warren Girls Basketball team just won their first sectional championship since 1980 and there's one player who really stands out as a triple treat.

Eliza Blood- WNYT- March 7, 2017- 6pm- March 12, 2017- 11pm There is a long line of success at Queensbury High School when it comes to skiing and our Fidelis Care Athlete of the Week only strengthens that chain.
