SANBORN, N.Y. (WKBW) — Inside Niagara Wheatfield Senior High School you'll find the Athletics Hall of Fame, featuring decades of excellence proudly displayed. The most recent class includes Zack Belter, a star hockey and lacrosse player at NW who went on to star at St. Bonaventure.

"Some of the best memories are playing hockey in the road or lacrosse in the front yard, and being able to bring that up through high school was pretty special."

Belter helped take the hockey team to a state finals appearance in 2018 and was one of the best lacrosse players in school history. After graduating, he was part of the first-ever Division l lacrosse team at St. Bonaventure University. With the Bonnies, Belter's game continued to improve, earning him all-conference honors in 2021 and 2022.

"One of the recruiting questions that I asked way back in the infancy of just starting St. Bonaventure, he was one of the first recruits, I asked 'What's the dream, what are you trying to do?'" Bonnies lacrosse coach Randy Mearns said. "And he said point blank, I want to play in the NLL, and preferably I want to play for Buffalo."
