Nine students were transported to hospitals Sunday with minor injuries after a bus was involved in a crash leaving the North Babylon High School parking lot, schools Superintendent Kenneth Graham said in a statement.

The bus struck a pole in the parking lot, Suffolk police confirmed.

The incident occurred at around 10:45 a.m. Medical personnel remained at the scene, where additional students were being evaluated, until about 12:45 p.m., police said.

The students are members of the North Babylon boys winter track team and were on their way to a meet at Suffolk County Community College in Brentwood, Graham said.

"We appreciate the quick response of the fire department and EMTs and thank them for their assistance," Graham said.

The bus, owned by the district, was carrying about 30 passengers, police said.

None of the injuries was serious, authorities said.
