If you read the blog in question , i do not name names or hint to the names. I tell of a game that was played that day. My opinion of the game… NOT the team … is it not true that on some days a team is going to just get beat by a team that plays better that day… I know there is alot of talent there and great coaching ..it just did not click that day …. Sure i could say how good they are and that they are the best in Div. but the sun got in their eyes, they played flat, their best guy did not feel well.. it was an off day … I gave an opinion on one game .. should other teams not get credit when it is do
many of you have seen my post before I DO NOT NAME NAMES in a negitive way and at times mock and make fun of myself when i'am wrong.. i often speak positive of players on both teams.. As far as the coach. I got his message after his post and will be back in touch …all and all no harm intended .. ok towner you can pile on now it's all good .. done on this subject and thank you

please remove the comments of Power Leaguer. We can't have this on our blog.

you have some ego. I hope you are a child and not a parent. At the end of the day high school lacrosse is a game, it should be enjoyed by the kids who play and the parents who watch it. It is nice to win- going to practice and working your tail off and playing your hardest, it is nice to win. But it is a high school game do not let it dictate who you are as a person. Just because you are in the "power league" means nothing to me- I am there to support my kid and his team because they work just as hard as every other team. So get off your high horse in the end it does not matter if you win sectionals if you have no class and you do not.

Weren't you just negatively criticizing PV to the point that a coach had to come in and defend his team? Wasn't that negative as well???

No sense repeating waht you said to "power leaguer"s incredible commnet. I had to read it twice to believe it was really written.

You are SO right and he is SO wrong!!!

This belittles so many yet to some just playing is a goal they set out for. The teams that are getting better let them enjoy a little press whats the harm. to the better teams keep up; the hard work.. to the others keep working and their supporters keep blogging …,it makes thing interresting… i for one enjoy most of these commments

T-minus 22 hours or so until Rye-Jay

Yeah was an ugly day today.

Your "refs" comment added some needed levity!

Firstly respect to you for using your real name which frankly adds credence to "your side" of the story.

But actually to be fair I dont know who is right.

But at least sinc Fritz was publicly dragged in the mud,he was able to get a counter positive public response from you.

Hear rumor emotions were running at fever pitch in Rye practice with coach having to send kids off the field at times to cool off.

I'll tell you one thing JJ may very well end up winning the game but Rye's not gonna walk away from that field tomorrow having NOT used every bit of energy and ability that these kids can put out.

Absolutely (applies to coaches as well as I said above). Guess some of these people will only see the light when their kid (or them if they're a player) eventually gets publicly critizized.

2 comments. I think Joe and others see this blog as being used for making POSITIVE comments or only general non personally directed negative commnets. Sounds like you have very strong feelings about Fritz which mean alot to you. If your're even half correct, not being in the running for coach of the year will take care of itself for Fritz.

Also not sure its no brainer AT THIS that Section 1 is "down for the count this year". Yes JJ is NOT as strong as they were last year but Town (yes somewhat inconsistent), Brewster and Rye are stronger as is Byrum Hills. Yes Pac, LP,Mamar and HH are having tough seasons.

If JJ and Town can pull out wins vs Comsequogue and Wilton would go further to my thought that Sect 1 still has some really good quality relative to last yr.

The Valley very poor shot selection in particular one or two guys. More drops and not alot of heart. Did they even get any ground balls ….. Now this may have been due to B hills play. Time of possesion went to Valley but, what bad bad shot selection ( hint pass the ball).
Bhill credit to you guys on the team & coaching staff a game played well. To the Bhill mothers there class job,,,// to the Bhills dad on top of the stands get a grip it's a high school game … let the kids play & refs do their job. When your wife gives an apology for your behavior you look to take a good look at yourself. With 15 seconds left in the game, up 3 and still yelling stuff ….please …. Sorry but this stuff surfaces more & more ..to bad !

As for JJ, they are a strong team but they are a shell of their former selves from last year… Wake up people, Section I is down for the count this year.

Can't believe as a J fan that you are actually giving away the "historical perspective" of the 3 pronged attack behind J's offense which has now morphed into a 4 pronged attack!!. I'm forwarding this to the Dooleys ASAP.

Every little thing helps!!

Good luck P'ville you will need it. Tough having only 19 kids. In comparison you have JJ with 39 players. Even Briacliff has 25 kids.

the blog frog, I think we should just stop the season now and give Jay the Class B title, and the A and C while we're at it! what's the point of playing any more games? I guess Nisky, Manhasset and St. Anthony's must have had 4 prongs or somethin'.......

In 1977, the British released a three-pronged attack on the United States during the revolutionary war. Since then, the three-pronged attack has diminished, until now, John Jay (Cross River of course) has brought the famed three-pronged attack back. Unlike the attack in the Revolutionary War, this one is, and will work, with the head of the three pronged attack-Chris Bocklet. The opposing defense mans up on him, maybe even a little double team when he gets the ball. If they're not gone after the fake pass, Harrison Jones, one of the other prongs, is there, standing aside the goal, ready to catch and underhand it past the helpless goalie.
And now, a new prong has emerged, just when you can't handle any more, Billy LaPerch comes in out of nowhere, and BOOM – Goal Lasso. By the way, start running, you have 10 seconds, run straight towards your goal… and Kevin Drew will still run past you. Tyler Granelli-he aint too shabby dishin it out either, plus the great flow erupting out of the back of the helmet.

What I'm trying to say is that John Jay is going places, hopefully Hostra, well see what happens. But in the mean time, you watch out for those three prongs… before they getchya. Actually, dont. im a big jj fan.

Anyway, let me know if you have any questions:

• All Division A teams qualify for sectionals regardless of record. In Division B, teams must have a winning percentage of 30 percent. In Division C, it's 40 percent.

• According to the seeding rules employed this past spring, the nine "power league" teams drew higher seeds than any non-power league teams regardless of record. You will recall last year, Mahopac got a No. 4 seed in Class A despite finishing the regular season 4-13 because it was in the power league — a scenario that created quite a bit of discussion right here on the blog last year.

There is a stipulation that the members of the seeding committee may, at their discretion, decide not follow that criteria.

Look at Pville vs Bhills. Score is tied 7-7 going into the 4th. As close as you can get after 3 periods. BH goes onto to win 10-7.

Then Pville goes to play Yorktown and not sure of the final score but the score is 7-1 after the 1st qtr. Just shows you the disparity between the Yorktown and JJ's of the world and everybody else.

on another note… suffern continues to lose, north rockland cant get back into their groove, and how does mamk take down scarsdale…things just arent right people!

Seeding is based on power league and then league record.

Clarkstown North 8, Pearl River 5: Matt Desimone and Nick Camadeco each had three goals and an assist.

Nanuet 15, Albertus Magnus 5: T.J. Dertinger had five goals and an assist for the Golden Knights.

Irvington 5, Sleepy Hollow 4: Will Carrol scored the winner with 6:47 left off of a pass from Robert Logozio.

Edgemont 12, Croton-Harmon 1: Dan Newman and Ben Kantor each scored three goals.

Hastings 11, Peekskill 8: Offensive MVP Blaze Marpet had four goals and one assist for Hastings in a third annual Friendship Cup. Teammate Peter Mills, who made 21 saves, was defensive MVP. Peekskill’s Giuseppe Rice, who had four goals and three assists, was named the game’s MVP. Teammate Darius Doway also had four goals.

Fordham Prep 11, Xaverian 2: Sean Hans and Danny Staff each scored two goals for the Rams.

Somers 5, Hen Hud 4: Colin Tullgren scored the go-ahead goal with 8:52 remaining in the third quarter, giving the Tuskers a 4-3 lead. Greg Petre then scored in the fourth quarter to make it 5-3. Collin Parkhurst had a goal and two assists for the Sailors.

On the other end of suffering and a team clearing surprising people is Byram Hills with 10 wins and only 3 loses. I hate to say it but they just keep pulling out the close games. But with that said they have only beat 3 teams with winning records. I see think they fold very quickly come playoff time.

Any thoughts??

Irvington is now 5-5, with 3 wins in a row. I know its a few days early, but what is your prediction on Irvington @ Peekskill Thursday? The Bulldogs already won the 1st matchup in the 1st round of the Hastings Tournie. Thanks Joe

Brewster leads 4-3 at halftime. Ethan Meyer has two goals. Kenny Cowan has scored twice for the Quakers.
