BINGHAMTON – Tom Dixon and George Seiler worked together for a lot of years. Dixon won more basketball games at New Berlin High School than any other coach in school history, and the same can be said of Seiler, who won more football games as varsity head coach of New Berlin than any previous Hawks coach.

Dixon and Seiler, two men who were the faces of New Berlin sports for three decades, were named to the Section IV Athletic Council Hall of Fame earlier this. The duo will formally receive their induction Saturday, March 7 at the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena.

Seiler went 152-44-6 over a football coaching career that spanned parts of five decades. Seiler, an Oxford native, began at South New Berlin as a fresh-faced rookie coach in 1959 after graduation from Cortland State, and in his second year, coached the first of his many Tri-Valley League unbeaten seasons.
