"The great [Mets] Hall of Famer, Tommie Agee played the role model on the young men who grew up during that era,” said Mayor Adams at the dedication ceremony outside the new Tommie L. Agee Educational Campus, PS 419 in East Elmhurst Queens — not far from where the Mets play. “I was nine years old at that time and we were in dark places as children in South Jamaica, Queens,” he said, recalling his childhood and the great 1969 team. “When we saw that team, when we saw them play, it meant so much to us…Tommie Agee meant so much to me.”
