John Jay has won four straight Class B Section 1 championships. But having lost three all-Americans and with a sophomore filled with 13 sophomores, many seem to feel the Indians’ dynasty is in seriously danger. Those who do invariably point to Somers as the team that could well dethrone the Tuskers. Now, hold on. There […]
As far as Roy Colsey is concerned, his first season as Ridgefield coach will be all about gaining respect. And the former All-American at Yorktown and Syracuse is ready to do just about anything to make sure his team gets it. No, seriously, anything. We will play anyone, Colsey said. This team does not get the credit it […]
Hey Fairfield – Hop on board. Today, programs throughout Fairfield join the rest of the region by getting their seasons started. And there are a couple of noteworthy coaching debuts.
Just check these scores, folks. Lindenhurst 8, Ward Melville 5. Comeswogue 11, Manhasset 10, OT. John Jay 13, Rye 7. Yorktown 11, Somers 6. What a day. Where do we start? For video highlights of the Somers-Yorktown game, click here.
Looking back, last week’s Top 25, our second edition of the season, wound up being the proverbial calm before the storm. There were just a few cosmetic changes from our first rankings. But wait till you see what’s happened this week.
Daniel Lohrfink of Byram Hills scores on this shot with 3:42 remaining in the fourth quarter, lifting Byram Hills to a 7-6 victory over Bronxville today in Armonk. It was one of many big games today, including some huge upsets on Long Island, where Ward Melville and Manhasset both suffered losses. (Photo by Jim Stout/MaxPreps.com)
Happy Monday, gang. We will be keeping a close eye on the weather this week. Starting today. Rain is supposed to arrive mid-morning and continue through mid-afternoon. Of course, unless there is heavy rain or thunderstorms, lax is usually played (depending on field conditions.) Stay tuned.
Hey guys, Syracuse here. Well, this much is known: Through a handful of games, Yorktown is very much for real. St. Anthony’s may be more hype than actual substance. Manhasset appears to be one of the top teams on Long Island and probably the state and rebuilding John Jay will do whatever is necessary to […]
Our friend Syracuse will be weighing in with some more thoughts on the weekend action and we will be unveiling some video interviews we taped last night after the Manhasset-John Jay game. So stay tuned for that. But first, a couple of quick college notes.
That’s the question teams and players throughout the region are asking these days about Johns Hopkins-bound Yorktown junior Kevin Interlicchio. (Photo by Jim Stout/MaxPreps.com) So far, in two-and-a-half games (he sat out the second half of Yorktown’s season-opening win over North Rockland), the answer has been a resounding no as Interlicchio has scored an astonishing […]
Hey everybody, Syracuse here. So much love is thrown Joe Marasco’s way — and rightfully so — but if you think this Somers team is a one-man show, think again. Greg Petre is the real deal — and the Tuskers have several others that will make them a very serious threat in the fight for this season’s Section […]
A couple of Long Island vs. Westchester showdowns. A huge Section 1 rivalry game. A West Coast visitor coming to Westchester. A men’s college tripleheader, marking the first time lax has ever been played at Giants Stadium. If you’re a lax fan, you probably wish you had a clone today to catch it all. Welcome […]
A little rain almost never gets in the way of a good lax game, as we all know, gang. But thunderstorms. And lightning. Well, then, all bets are off. That’s the situation we could and I emphasize could find ourselves in later today. But for now, “Today’s Top 5/Score updates” marches on. Be […]
Sophomore attackman Mike Daniello scores on this first-quarter shot, giving John Jay a 2-1 lead. The Indians came from behind in the third quarter and outscored Brewster by 7-2 in the second half in recording an 11-6 victory today. (Jim Stout/MaxPreps.com) The leading contenders in Section 1 Class B both came away with big wins […]
St. Anthony’s vs. Chaminade. You don’t have to say much more than that. The longtime CHSAA powerhouses will be renewing their rivalry today at 4:15 p.m. at Chaminade. St. Anthony’s is No. 2 in the LaxLessons.com regional rankings. Chaminade is No. 7.
