will be pole vaulting in her hometown of Fredonia on Oct. 1. The event will kick off with a parade at 3:30 p.m. that will see Suhr brought in on a trolley to Church Street, where the rest of the festivities will take place from 4-6 p.m. “It’s always exciting to come back,” Jenn’s husband and coach Rick Suhr said. “Jenn is an international superstar. She loves to come home. Jenn is a very down-to-earth person. She always insists on signing autographs and taking pictures with people. That interaction

is important to her and it’s important for people to realize that she’s human like everyone else.” “She’s awfully excited,” Jenn’s father Mark Stuczynski shared. “But it’s more of a thank you to the community for the support, the cards and the prayers during her illness.” That illness, of course, came at a cruelly inopportune time — while Suhr was competing at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Already in 2016 Suhr had broken her own indoor world

record (5.03m) and won the gold medal at the 2016 World Indoor Champions with a height of 4.90m. Suhr won the Olympic silver medal in 2008 before capturing the gold at the London Olympics in 2012. With all of that, it’s easy to see why expectations for this generational athlete would be sky high. Unfortunately, the severe illness robbed Suhr of much of her strength. She valiantly fought through the first day of competition and qualified for

There was nothing we could do.” “Jenn put it this way,” Stuczynski said. “She said that when you’re an Olympian, you’re going to represent your country and you’re proud to do that. A lot of athletes that go to the Olympics are just glad to be there. But when you’re an Olympian who is a world record holder, there’s a whole other level of pressure put on you by others and yourself.” “A week before Rio, she was in the best shape of her life,” Rick Suhr added. “We did everything we could do leading up to the Olympics. It’s just bad luck. “Everyone can relate to adversity,” Rick Suhr continued. “I really believe that had Jenn won the gold medal, it would have just been ‘Jenn wins again.’ But everyone can relate to what Jenn went through. That’s what touched a lot of people.”

During the days of Olympic competition, the community rallied in downtown Fredonia to watch the local Olympic hero compete against the best in the world. It was quite a sight to see all of those people gathered together to watch the event. “She was overwhelmed with emotion,” Stuczynski noted. “In her mind she just wished she could do better to put an exclamation point on all of the support that she had. Olympic gold medalist Jenn Suhr will be jumping on Church Street in downtown Fredonia on Oct. 1. (AP Photo/Matt Dunham) “It’s emotional for us, too,” Stuczynski said of himself and his wife, Sue. “There are so many good people in this area. We took a walk around (Point Gratiot) and people are stopping and asking us how she is and letting us know how proud they are of her.” In addition to Jenn Suhr, there will be five women and three men pole vaulting at the event. These will be the best vaulters in all of Western New York. There will be a DJ, $1,000 worth of Adidas merchandise given away and various other activities to involve the crowd. “It’s going to be a great show,” Rick Suhr concluded.

Seven To Be Performed at JCC on Oct. 14 Contributed Article JCC

Seven, a documentary play dramatizing the struggles of seven global women who have overcome massive obstacles, will be performed at 6 p.m. on October 14 in Jamestown Community College’s Scharmann Theatre. The performance is free and open to the public. Seven is produced by the LakeArts Foundation in association with the State University of New York at Fredonia, Venture Productions, and JCC’s Weeks Gallery. The production, made possible by a grant from Cummins Engine, Inc., is also supported by funds from the Weeks Gallery, JCC Foundation, SUNY Fredonia theatre and dance department, and the SUNY Arts and Technology Incubator. Seven will also be performed at 6 p.m. on October 8 in Rosch Hall at SUNY Fredonia. Chautauqua County leaders will read the roles of seven women who endured abuse in Russia, Pakistan, Nigeria, Northern Ireland, Afghanistan, Guatemala, and Cambodia. Playwright Carol K. Mack recruited six other award-winning playwrights - Paula Cizam, Catherine Filloux, Gail Kriegel, Ruth Margraff, Anna Deavere Smith, and Susan Yankowitz - to write about seven extraordinary women. Each worked closely with a subject to create a monologue of an activist’s journey, and together wove the seven monologues into the script for the global production of Seven. Seven, which opened the first Women’s Economic Forum, also featured a portrayal by Meryl Streep as one of the activists when the play was performed at the 2010 Women in the World conference in New York. In 2010, Swedish director Hedda Sjögren took an innovative approach to casting Seven by convincing political leaders to perform the script. Other local scripts were developed featuring the stories of community women presented alongside the global version of Seven. Since 2010, Seven has been translated into 20 languages and has been performed in 32 countries and 22 U.S. states. The local production is coordinated by Margaret Johnson of the LakeArts Foundation in Dunkirk with assistance from Ted Sharon, associate professor and head of performance for Fredonia State’s theatre department and director of Venture Productions, and Patricia Briggs, director of JCC’s Weeks Gallery. The global script will be read by Vince Horrigan, Chautauqua County Executive; Virginia Horvath, SUNY Fredonia president; Lillian Ney; Marion Beckerink, Jackson Center development director; Marilyn Zagora, JCC vice president of academic affairs; Athanasia Landis, mayor of Fredonia; and Sister Joan Chittister, OSB of Erie, PA. JCC student participants include Reasha Davis and Kalimah Jefferson, student senators and Black Student Union co-presidents, and Obehi Ejele, a first generation Nigerian-British international student. “Seven is inspiring,” said Horrigan. “This play shows how women (people) prevail. It’s the character, the fortitude that matters. It transcends gender.” “I am impressed that the story of these seven remarkable women uses drama to elicit empathy and compassion and show how individual lives can make a difference,” Dr. Ney added. During the past two years, a Chautauqua area script featuring the voices of area women who have overcome adversity and worked to effect change in their communities was developed. The women include Senada Alhodzic of the International Institute of Erie; Cassidy Fritsch, a SUNY Fredonia undergraduate; Sherri “Sam” Mason, SUNY Fredonia chemistry professor; Jenny Rowe of the Chautauqua County Mental Health Association; Grace Sam of Dunkirk; and Jamie

Thompson, a Navy veteran. “I have been moved by the stories of the local women,” said Dr. Briggs, who interviewed Jenny Rowe and Grace Sam. “They, and the other women who I have met for this project, have lived through difficult times and have grown to be strong and caring of others.” Dr. Mason is willing to tell her story “because we can learn from others and how they overcame obstacles. You don’t want the fact that you are a victim to define you and your life.” “I have been enormously gratified,” Dr. Briggs added, “that JCC student senators jumped at the opportunity to read the voices of global women.” “This production demonstrates our community’s sense of social responsibility,” Sharon noted also. For more information, contact Dr. Briggs at 338.1301 or patriciabriggs@mail. sunyjcc.edu.

Essek Gets Republican Endorsement Contributed Article Douglas Essek

Village of Fredonia Board of Trustees candidate Douglas Essek will appear on the Republican line as a result of Saturday’s Fredonia Republican Caucus endorsement of him for the open Trustee position. Following his endorsement, Essek thanked the caucus participants for their support and encouragement. “I firmly believe that if you have the ability and the means to make a positive contribution to your community; your state, your nation that it is not only your privilege, but your responsibility as a citizen of this great nation we live in, to exercise that right. My wife Julie and I have a philosophy that you can either be part of the solution, or part of the problem. We choose to be part of the solution.”

“Julie and I do not want to roll up the welcome mat at our home and move to greener pastures. We know that our village; community, county and region has the potential to be the once prosperous; decent, well-populated community that once flourished. It will take hard work; commitment, and communication with residents to achieve these goals. Public officials work for the people and that logic will be the mindset I will use to make decisions if elected to the Village of Fredonia Trustee position.” “I encourage residents to attend meetings; public hearings and most importantly make sure they are registered to vote, and vote. These are the simplest ways that residents can make sure their concerns are heard.” November 8 is Election Day. A single position for a one-year term for a Village of Fredonia Trustee seat is up for vote on that day.

JHS’ Leon Named National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist Contributed Article JPS

Jamestown High School is proud to announce that senior, Matthew Leon, was named a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. The National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) officials announced the names of approximately 16,000 Semifinalists in the 62nd annual National Merit Scholarship Program. These academically talented high school seniors have an opportunity to continue in the competition for 7,500 National Merit Scholarships worth about $33 million that will be offered next spring. To be considered for a Merit Scholarship® award, Semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the Finalist level of the competition. About 90 percent of the Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and about half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar title. “This is an outstanding accomplishment for Matt and a great honor for our school,” said JHS Principal Mike McElrath. “We are fortunate to have great students, and great people like Matt in our midst.” About 1.6 million juniors in more than 22,000 high schools entered the 2017 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2015 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying

Test (PSAT/NMSQT®), which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of Semifinalists, representing less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest_ scoring entrants in each state. The number of Semifinalists in a state is proportional to the state's percentage of the national total of graduating seniors. To become a Finalist, the Semifinalist and his or her high school must submit a detailed scholarship application, in which they provide information about the Semifinalist's academic record, participation in school and community activities,

demonstrated leadership abilities, employment, and honors and awards received. A Semifinalist must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, write an essay, and earn SAT® scores that confirm the student's earlier performance on the qualifying test. National Merit Scholarship winners of 2017 will be announced in four nationwide news releases beginning in April and concluding in July. These scholarship recipients will join more than 323,000 other distinguished young people who have earned the Merit Scholar title.

Educators Tour Athenex Facilities Contributed Article Chautauqua County Executive’s Office

Collaboration between educators in Chautauqua County and Athenex continues, with local schools actively engaged in preparations for Athenex’s workforce needs. Athenex, in partnership with Empire State Development and New York State, anticipates creating 900 new jobs in the County with its high potency oncology drug manufacturing site. Chautauqua County Executive Vince Horrigan, the Chautauqua County Education Coalition and the County of Chautauqua Industrial Development Agency (CCIDA) are coordinating efforts to align Athenex’s expected workforce needs with local training and curriculum. “We want to ensure that our Chautauqua County workforce is properly trained to take advantage of these excellent job opportunities,” said Horrigan. To continue these efforts, Kristine Morabito, CCIDA Business Development Manager, recently coordinated a tour of Athenex facilities. Educators and representatives from the Chautauqua County Education Coalition, Jamestown Community College, State University of New York at Fredonia, Erie 2-Chautauqua-Cattaragus BOCES, Dunkirk City School District, Fredonia Central School District, P-TECH, Manufacturer’s Association of the Southern Tier (MAST), Dream It Do It, Chautauqua Workforce Investment Board, and Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation Economic Development Committee participated. The visit began with QuaDPharma, a subsidiary of Athenex, located in Clarence, N.Y. The group continued to Athenex’s Buffalo, N.Y. facilities, where they saw headquarters and offices as well as new lab space currently under construction. The tour provided educators with deeper insight of Athenex’s work environment and the technical requirements of pharma manufacturing. Once Athenex breaks ground in Chautauqua County, they expect two to three years of construction, equipping, and regulatory approvals. In the meantime, they will continue partnering with the Education Coalition. “We have been incredibly impressed with the strong educational programs and welcoming business community in Chautauqua County,” noted Teresa Bair, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and Legal Affairs at Athenex. “We are moving ahead with our project and look forward to continued engagement with the Dunkirk and Chautauqua community.” Area secondary and higher education schools are closely looking at how to prepare residents with training and education to match Athenex’s needs. Collaborative efforts will continue this fall, as Athenex will soon tour several local schools and training facilities to learn more about available resources and curriculum.

He was available for a book signing, gave an inspiring talk about bats that displayed photographs he had taken from around the globe, and stayed afterwards to answer questions. Tuttle’s speech reached over 100 people about the importance of bats to global ecosystems and human health, hopefully inspiring local conservation efforts. Local educator Caroline Bissell of the Chautauqua Institution also gave a wonderful talk on bats of NYS. Terry Mosher, Mark Baldwin and John Ruska were featured speakers and workshop leaders focusing on birds.

Community members from all over the Chautauqua region are expected to participate in the upcoming Out of the Darkness Community Walk in Jamestown on Saturday, September 24, 2016. The fundraising walk supports the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) by helping support local suicide prevention and awareness programs right here in Chautauqua County. The Jamestown Out of the Darkness Walk is one of hundreds of Out of the Darkness Community Walks being held across all 50 states this fall. The walks are expected to unite more than a quarter of a million walkers nationally and raise more than $15 million for suicide prevention efforts. “We are so excited to announce that Jamestown City Mayor Samuel Teresi will be opening up the Walk this year, with a special proclamation and message,” said Ann Rosenthal, Public Relations Coordinator of Chautauqua Tapestry. So far, over $18,000 has been raised for the walk by local business and community members. The goal for this year’s walk is to raise $30,000. This year’s sponsors include Jamestown Advanced Products; Cummins; Woman’s Christian Association of Jamestown; R-Patti Concrete & Excavating; Artone, LLC; Randolph Peaches N Cream; The Leone Family; John C Nelson Group; Family Health Medical Services, PLLC; Fessenden, Laumer, and Deangelo Attorneys at Law; Lake Shore Behavioral Health; Wegmans; Media One Group; and Randolph Auto Supply. The Community Alliance for Suicide Prevention, the local suicide awareness and prevention coalition within Chautauqua County, is organizing the walk with other local organizations including the Chautauqua County Early Identification and Recognition Program, Chautauqua Tapestry, Chautauqua County Department of Mental Hygiene, and many passionate community members. "The group is continually working on

suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention that will be available to local organizations, agencies, schools and community members," said Victoria Patti, co-coordinator of the Community Alliance. "Our goal is to create a change in the way we currently look at suicide and eliminate the stigma surrounding the topic as a whole. We hope that the end result of increased education will be a reduction in the number of suicides in our community. The over-arching mission is to eliminate occurrences of suicide all together. Suicide has devastating effects on so many people. There needs to be better understanding regarding its causes and prevention. There is so much misinformation surrounding the topic of suicide and the underlying mental disorders that can sometimes lead to suicide. The Out of the Darkness Community Walk is aimed at raising awareness and eliminating that stigma." The Jamestown Out of the Darkness Community Walk will take place at Northwest Arena, formally known as the Jamestown Savings Bank Arena, with registration beginning at 9 a.m. and the walk beginning at 10 a.m. To register, go to www.outofthedarkness. org and click on find an event to search and register for the Jamestown Out of the Darkness Community Walk. “After cancer and heart disease, suicide accounts for more years of life lost than any other cause of death,” said Sarah Clark, Western New York Area Director of AFSP. “This fall, thousands will be walking to raise money for prevention and awareness, and offer hope to millions of people who have lost a loved one to suicide or who battle personally with depression, bipolar illness, addiction and other mental illnesses," continued Clark. About the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention: The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is the leading national notfor-profit organization exclusively dedicated to understanding and preventing suicide through research, education and advocacy as well as to reaching out to people with mental disorders and those impacted by suicide.

Hockey games, a concert, ceremony, and open skate – a lot of activities will be part of “Alex: Celebrate the Life, the Smile.” The event at the Northwest (formerly Jamestown Saving) Bank Ice Arena in downtown Jamestown on Saturday, October 1, celebrates what three days later would have been Alex Foulk’s 27th birthday. An avid hockey player, Alex died in February of a heroin overdose. The afternoon will raise awareness of substance abuse disorders and funds for the Alex Foulk Memorial Fund at the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation. “Old Timers” and “Young Guns” hockey teams made up of local players from a variety of backgrounds will face off in the main arena in two back-to-back games beginning at 2 p.m. After the second game, at about 4 p.m., a red carpet ceremony will honor families who have lost loved ones to drugs or alcohol. Area residents who are in recovery and living fulfilled lives will also speak. Following the ceremony, popular local band TPT will perform and there will be open skating in the rink until 6:30 p.m. A small donation ($5) is suggested but not necessary to cover skate rentals. This family fun event will also be educational.

“Alex: Celebrate the Life, the Smile” will be at the Northwest (formerly Jamestown Saving) Bank Ice Arena in downtown Jamestown on Saturday afternoon, October 1.

Surrounding the rink will be representatives and informational materials from Chautauqua Alcoholism & Substance Abuse Council, Evergreen Health Services, HOPE Coalition, Mental Health Association in Chautauqua County, and more. “The epidemic has not reached its peak,” said Kim Carlson, Alex’s mother and organizer of the event. “Young kids don’t have the knowledge of what drugs will do or how deadly the wrong combination can be.” Anyone who has questions or names of people they would like to honor can call Carlson at (716) 499-5070. Tickets are $10, $5 for children ages 6-10, free under age five, $25 for a family of four or more. In hopes of filling the rink that holds 2,500

people, there will be a flat fee of $100 for any size organization: an entire hockey, football, or other team, senior or other school class, Brownies, Boy Scouts, fire departments, clubs or civic organizations. Groups are asked to wear something that shows their association: a jersey, jacket, scarf, or anything of their choosing. Tickets go on sale Tuesday, September 20, in the main lobby of the Northwest Arena. A representative will be at the rink for sales from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, September 20, 22, 27 and 29.

Mock Elections Coming To Many County High Schools Contributed Article Chautauqua County BOE

The Chautauqua County Board of Elections (BOE) and League of Women Voters (LWV) are jointly providing Mock 2016 Presidential Elections for most county high schools, announced Election Commissioners Norman P. Green and Brian C. Abram. The schools asking to take part and the schedule for the elections are Maple Grove High School (Bemus Point), Oct. 19; Brocton High School, Oct. 13; Cassadaga Valley High School and Middle School, Oct. 20; Dunkirk High School, Oct. 24; Falconer High School, Oct. 18; Forestville High School and Elementary School, Oct. 12; Fredonia High School, Oct. 3; Frewsburg High School, Oct. 20; Jamestown High School, Oct. 21; Panama High School and Elementary School, Oct. 17; Pine Valley High School, Oct. 14; and Southwestern High School, Sept 30. All schools were contacted in the spring to offer the mock election services. On the day of the Mock Presidential Elections, the LWV will set up electronic scanner polling stations. Each student will be provided a work sheet outlining the positions of each candidate, so as to make an intelligent voting choice. Each student will independently scan their ballot with their choice for president marked by filling in the oval next to their president and vice-president candidates of choice. “The mock elections are an opportunity for the Board of Elections to provide an exciting election service that hopefully will spill over into the homes of the students, our goal is to increase voting by the parents and relatives. Additionally, it allows us the opportunity to introduce paper ballot optical scan tabulation voting to these young citizens,” said Abram. “We are mandated by Election Law to do voter outreach programs and the schools are mandated to have elections as part of their curriculums. Thanks to our partnership with the League, we are able to handle this outreach at a minimal taxpayer cost. The League’s Minda Rae Amiran has been our point person and is truly the woman who makes this all come together,” said Green.

its kind in Chautauqua County. It seeks to educate, entertain, and provide visitors with an agricultural experience beyond buying some produce. It tries to provide something for everyone, and in some ways serve as a sort of ‘community service.’ Guests can purchase products like pumpkins, apples, Mayer Bros. cider and DeGolier maple syrup, while learning about local agriculture from educational displays and presentations or they can choose to have a more authentic “on the farm” experience. They can pick their own Concord grapes, participate in fun activities like a train or hayride, feed some farm animals, and visit with family and friends; all while enjoying a taste of Fall fare as children enjoy the play areas or pick out the perfect carving pumpkin. Some may even feel confident enough to attempt the “great vineyard challenge,” and perhaps earn bragging rights and a prize giveaway stating, I "concord" the great vine-

yard challenge at Harvest Happenings! For photographers, the “How tall this Fall” sign is available there too. A visit to “Harvest Happenings” will turn a shopping errand into an educational, ‘agritainment’ experience! For more information on how you can have your

own “bunches of Fall fun,” check out “Harvest Happenings” on Facebook or stop in at 2929 Route 39 in Forestville. They are open MondaySaturday 10-6 & Sundays 1-6, with harvest train & hayride hours on Monday-Fridays 4-6 and all day Saturday and Sunday.

Opera House Cinema Series to Screen “Florence Foster Jenkins” Contributed Article Fredonia Opera House

The next feature film in the Opera House Cinema Series is “Florence Foster Jenkins,” based on a true story and starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant. It will be screened on Sat., Sept. 24, and Tues., Sept. 27, at 7:30 p.m. In 1940s New York, Florence Foster Jenkins (Streep), a New York heiress and socialite, obsessively pursued her dream of becoming a great singer. The voice she heard in her head was beautiful, but to everyone else it was hilariously awful. Her “husband” and manager, St. Clair Bayfield (Grant), an aristocratic English actor, was determined to protect his beloved Florence from the truth. But when Florence decided to give a public concert at Carnegie Hall, St. Clair knew he faced his greatest challenge. Oliver Jones, in the New York Observer, calls the film “a comic lark that packs a satisfying emotional wallop.” Peter Howell, in the Toronto Star, calls it “enjoyable summer entertainment for grown-ups and anyone else seeking refuge from superheroes.” Peter Travers, in Rolling Stone, calls it “a damn fine and funny film.” Peter Rainer, in the Christian

Science Monitor, says “it’s official: Streep can play anything, even someone without a trace of talent.” Rated PG-13 for brief suggestive material, “Florence Foster Jenkins” runs one hour, 51 minutes. The Opera House Cinema Series is sponsored by Lake Shore Savings Bank. Additional support comes from the United Arts Appeal of Chautauqua County, the Arts Ser-

vices Initiative of WNY Inc., and the Give for Greatness program. Tickets are available at the door for $7 (adults), $6.50 (seniors & Opera House members) and $5 (students) the night of each screening. A book of 10 movie passes is available for $60 at the door or online at www.fredopera.org. For more information, call the Opera House Box Office at 716-6791891.

The Opera House is equipped with individualized closed captioning headsets for the deaf as well as with assistive listening headsets for the hearingimpaired. Simply request one from any usher or Opera House staff member. Headset funding provided by Robert & Marilyn Maytum, the John Ben Snow Memorial Trust, the Dunkirk-Fredonia Lions Club, and by a grant from Theatre

Development Fund’s TAP Plus program in partnership with the New York State Council on the Arts. The 1891 Fredonia Opera House is a member-supported not-for-profit performing arts center located in Village Hall in downtown Fredonia. For a complete schedule of events, visit www.fredopera.org.

Thrills Abound

WEEK 3 OF HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PROVIDES PLENTY OF FUN By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

The local talent continues to shine week after week in high school football action. Chautauqua County continues to flex its collective muscle and rack up the wins as well as the highlight reel plays. Cassadaga Valley/Falconer 14, Allegany-Limestone 8 (3OT) Three was the magic number for the Golden Cougars (2-1) on Saturday afternoon in Class C South action. That was the number of overtimes it took for CV/F to secure a win over Allegany-Limestone after the two teams were knotted at 8-8 after regulation. It was Connor Crabtree who finally ended the marathon when he took the ball in from 18 yards out. Missed opportunities might have cost CV/F the game after the team missed a pair of field goals and turned the ball over on downs while in the red zone – all in the first half. After falling behind 8-0, Brandon Chamberlin took the ensuing kickoff 85 yards to the house. Crabtree connected with Robbie Penhollow for the game-tying two-point conversion. That was all of the scoring during a defensive battle that saw the Golden Cougars pick off two passes and force a pair of fumbles. The win was CV/F’s second of the season – already eclipsing last season’s total. Cassadaga Valley/Falconer travels to Chautauqua Lake on Friday night. Chautauqua Lake 23, Salamanca 12 A potent passing attack is rare in high school football, but that’s exactly what Chautauqua Lake (1-2) showed off in a Class C South win over Salamanca. Devin Pope threw completed 10 of 17 attempts for 161 yards and a pair of touchdown strikes in the Thunderbirds’ first win of the season. Pope’s touchdowns both came in the first quarter - going to Nate Rivera and J.C. McCroskey. Rivera also ran for a touchdown to help Chautauqua Lake built a 23-6 lead in the third quarter. The Thunderbirds’ defense forced a game-changing five turnovers in the win.

Milestone Watch: NFL Edition By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

Chautauqua Lake hosts Cassadaga Valley/Falconer on Friday. Silver Creek/Forestville 39, Portville 3 The Black Knights defense took care of the majority of the scoring in a blowout Class D win over Portville. Not only did SC/F hold Portville to just three points, but the defense also scored three times on fumble returns. Chris Williams (65 yards), Noah Seneca (20 yards) and Billy Seiders (70 yards) all picked up fumbles and took them to the house.

Sports fans love their stats. They also love the NFL, so why not compile a milestone watch for this year’s season? So glad I asked. I believe I will. All stats come from pro-footballreference.com. This was written preceding the Week 2 games, so all stats are as of Sept. 15. 142 SACKS: DeMarcus Ware and Julius Peppers — Why 142 sacks? That would move either of these guys into the top five all time. Currently Michael Strahan sits in fifth place on the career sacks list with 141.5 quarterback takedowns. Ware and

MILESTONE WATCH: NFL EDITION, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 Peppers each sit at 136 after Week 1 of the 2016 season. Chris Doleman is fourth with 150.5. Reaching that number this season is probably stretch, but both guys should easily crack that top five. 61,362 PASSING YARDS: Drew Brees — There’s little chance that Brees didn’t reach this total during Week 2’s action. After Week 1, Brees sits at 61,326 career yards. That’s the fourth most of all time. Dan Marino compiled 61,361 yards in his distinguished career. Brees will sit behind only Peyton Manning and Brett Favre on that career list. 300 PASSING TOUCHDOWNS: Eli Manning, Phillip Rivers and Ben Roethlisberger — Only seven men in the history of the NFL have thrown for 300 career touchdowns. That club will almost certainly grow to 10 this season as that awesome quarterback class of 2004 will reach that mark. Manning is the closest at 297 while River has 282 and Big Ben sits at 275. Great seasons from Carson Palmer (261) or Aaron Rodgers (259) could put either of those guys close to this number, too. 100 RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS: Adrian Peterson — Peterson is a firstballot Hall of Famer and doesn’t really need milestones to solidify his case, but it’ll still be special for him when he gets three more touchdowns. AP currently sits at 97 rushing touchdowns, which puts him 10th all time. His 100th will bring him into a tie for seventh with Marshall Faulk and Shaun Alexander. A normal Peterson season will also see him reach 13,000 rushing yards. 1,000 RECEPTIONS: Steve Smith — There are only four active players with 1,000 career receptions, but Smith should reach that mark midway through this season. After rescinding his retirement announcement following a season-ending injury last year, Smith continues to defy the aging process and currently sits at 966 receptions. If he reaches 1,000, it’ll put him tied with Hines Ward for 13th most receptions ever. 100 TOUCHDOWN RECEPTIONS: Larry Fitzgerald — Okay, technically Fitz already reached this in Week 1, but it certainly bears mentioning. He just keeps on rolling as an elite playing in this league and should reach the 14,000yard mark this year as well. 1,737 POINTS SCORED: Sebastian Janikowski — While kicking might not be the most glamorous position on the field, Janikowski has been a good one for a very long time. This season, he’ll almost certainly get into the top 10 in points scored in NFL history. The lifetime Raider currently has 1,682 and needs just 55 points to pass Norm Johnson for 10th place on the career points leaderboard. He also needs just 13 more made field goals to reach 400 for his career. 100 CAREER WINS: Eli Manning, Phillip Rivers — Only 13 quarterbacks have ever won 100 career games. Peyton Manning and Brett Favre are actually tied for the NFL record at 186 wins. Brady (172), Brees (124) and Big Ben (115) are all active players who have reached that milestone. Eli Manning (99) is just one win away. He’s already own a pair of Super Bowl titles, too. Is it possible he’s a Hall of Famer? Weird. Rivers isn’t a lock to reach it this year as the Chargers will probably be mediocre at best, but at 93 wins, he’ll at least come close. 100 COACHING WINS: Pete Carroll, Mike Tomlin — It takes a lot for a coach to reach 100 career wins and these two guys have a reputation as two of the best coaches in the NFL. Carroll currently has 94 wins under his belt while Tomlin is just one behind him at 93. 600 FRANCHISE WINS: Pittsburgh Steelers — There are only three franchises that have reached the 600-win milestone (Chicago, Green Bay, New York Giants). The Steelers will aim to become the fourth member of that club with 10

more wins. The Colts franchise could win their 500th game this season as well. Only 10 franchises have reached the 500-win mark. What else do you think we’ll see this year? Could A.J. Green or Antonio Brown break the single-season receiving record? Could Adrian Peterson have another 2,000-yard season? How many sacks will J.J. Watt rack up? Every season we see the unexpected. Surely this one will be no different. Get your popcorn ready and enjoy the ride. Stefan Gestwicki is the sports editor of the Chautauqua Star.

THRILLS ABOUND, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 Seiders also scored on a 10-yard touchdown run in leading the Black Knights with 84 rushing yards. SC/F will host Frewsburg on Friday night. Dunkirk 42, Eden/North Collins 0 The Marauders didn’t just get their first win of the season on Friday night, but they got a confidence boost in a 42-0 pounding of Eden during a nonleague contest. Despite the hugely lopsided final score, the game actually started as more of a back-and-forth defensive struggle. Alton Ingram had the first quarter’s lone score when he muscled into the end zone from 3 yards out. Perhaps the play of the game came in the second quarter when Evon Hernandez took a 4th-and-10 snap and heaved up a 15-yard touchdown strike to Juan Damas in the corner of the end zone. The same connection of Hernandez-to-Damas secured the twopoint conversion and gave Dunkirk a 16-0 lead. From there, the rout was on. Ingram scored on an 11-yard run, Damas raced 60 yards for another score and just like that, the Marauders had a 28-0 lead heading into halftime. Damas added a third touchdown in the third quarter. He led Dunkirk with 87 yards on just six rushing

attempts. Dunkirk’s defense was very much to thank for the victory, routinely giving the offense a short field to work with. The Marauders held Eden to just 90 total yards. Dunkirk will have a big game on Friday night at Pioneer. Olean 33, Fredonia/Westfield/Brocton 6 Olean’s Icar Simon scored a touchdown just over two minutes into the game and Olean never looked back in a relatively easy Class B South victory over Fredonia/Westfield/Brocton. The Huskies also got a pair of rushing touchdowns from quarterback Garrett Boldt, who gave FWB headaches all game with 89 yards on the ground and

another 45 through the air. FWB got a highlight-reel play from Joell Colon, who returned a kickoff 90 yards for the team’s lone score. It’s the second time this season that Colon has taken a kickoff to the house. Colon also picked up 41 yards on the ground. FWB travels to take on East Aurora/Holland on Friday.

Self-Proclaimed Expert Picks: Week 3

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

LAST WEEK SPREAD: 8-7 (.533) LAST WEEK STRAIGHT: 8-7 (.533) SEASON SPREAD: 14-15-1 (.482) SEASON STRAIGHT: 17-13 (.567) Two weeks isn’t a terrible long time in the grand scheme of an NFL season. When that tiny sample size comes in the first two weeks of the season, however, it’s overreaction time. So obviously Aaron Rodgers should just retire, the Texans are going to go 19-0 en route to the Super Bowl, the Rams are never going to score another touchdown and Ryan Fitzpatrick is the league’s MVP. If any of those things are still true in a couple months, I will literally eat my hat. To the picks!

HOUSTON TEXANS (2-0) at NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (2-0) Thursday night games usually involve some scrubs or non-conference games of drastically different talent levels, but this one should be pretty good. The Texans are something of a surprise, but there’s no questioning the legitimacy of their defense. As of this writing, it’s unclear who New England’s quarterback will be for this contest, but whoever it is will have to contend with a Texans team that already has nine sacks ( J.J. Watt has 1.5). PICK VS. SPREAD: Texans (-2.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Texans.

ARIZONA CARDINALS (1-1) at BUFFALO BILLS (0-2) The Bills are a mess. The defense just got shredded by the Jets. The offense

is a three-and-out machine. They already have a new offensive coordinator. There’s no way they can stay this bad, but the outlook is bleak thus far. Meanwhile the Cardinals are clicking. Carson Palmer has thrown five touchdowns – three to Larry Fitzgerald. The defense just forced Jamies Winston into five turnovers. This one could get ugly. PICK VS. SPREAD: Cardinals (-4). STRAIGHT PICK: Cardinals.

DETROIT LIONS (1-1) at GREEN BAY PACKERS (1-1) Both of these teams find themselves looking up at Minnesota in the NFC North early on, making this a critical game for both teams. Oddly, it’s been both offenses that have struggled to put

points on the board while both defenses have played well. Detroit put up just 15 points against a weak Titans team while Green Bay struggled in both games so far. For the Packers, it’s the home opener so expect them to bust out of their slump. PICK VS. SPREAD: Lions (+7.5). STRAIGHT PICK: Packers.

OAKLAND RAIDERS (1-1) at TENNESSEE TITANS (1-1) The Raiders have allowed 500+ yards in both games this season. They’ve played two all-offense, no-defense teams, though, so it’s probably an anomaly. The Titans aren’t exactly the Greatest Show on Turf or anything, so expect Khalil Mack and Co. to get

back on track. The Titans defense, meanwhile, has given up just one offensive touchdown in two games. This could definitely be a low-scoring affair. PICK VS. SPREAD: Raiders (+1). STRAIGHT PICK: Raiders.

CLEVELAND BROWNS (0-2) at MIAMI DOLPHINS (0-2) It’s been a tough start for both teams. The Browns have lost two quarterbacks in as many weeks after Josh McCown followed Bob Griffin III with a shoulder injury. It looks likely that neither guy will be back for a while. The Dolphins, meanwhile, have a pair of one-score losses to two Super Bowl favorites in Seattle and New England. With a trip to CONTINUED ON PAGE 29

Devils Edge Geneva, 2-1

SPORTS 29

Contributed Article FSU Sports Information Dept. Fredonia held on to a first-half lead before a thunderstorm intervened Saturday afternoon, The Blue Devils emerged with a 2-1 lightning-shortened win over the Geneva Golden Tornadoes. Fredonia broke on top on a goal by Jimmie Ritchie (East Aurora, N.Y./East Aurora). Following a counter out of their defensive end, Sam Greco (Lockport, N.Y./Lockport) made a run through the midfield a slid a pass to Jeremy Bari (Niagara Falls, N.Y. / Niagara-Wheatfield). Bari -- who opened the season at goalkeeper before moving to forward -- fed Ritchie in front. Ritchie turned on his defender and blasted a shot into the left side of the net. It was his second goal of the season. Geneve knotted the score 1-1 off a corner kick. The initial header knocked down by a Fredonia defender went to Abel Carleton, whose tying goal came with 7:32 left in the first half. The Blue Devils retook the lead, 2-1, in the 41st minute.

Contributed Article WCA Hospital

The Jamestown and Southwestern Midget Youth Football Leagues, including league cheerleaders, are not only tackling their opponents this season, but breast cancer during the month of October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, by wearing pink socks in honor and support of those affected by breast cancer. The Jock Shop and WCA Hospital have partnered with the area youth leagues to donate back a portion of the proceeds to LINKS Charity that fundraises for local breast cancer care. The leagues have raised more than $1,000 in support of the cause. Alongside the leagues’ efforts, LINKS Charity will host the 6th Annual LINKS Pink Walk Saturday, October 8, inside the Chautauqua Mall. Walkers can register by contacting Megan Barone, WCA Director of Development, at (716) 664-8423 or megan.d’angelo@wcahospital.org.

The Saints are actually giving up an absurd 343 yards per game through the air. Matt Ryan could be in for a monster day against that “defense.” Drew Brees struggled a bit against the Giants last week, but he’ll continue to throw the ball all over the field. You can expect close to 50 pass attempts from Brees and probably over 40 from Ryan. PICK VS. SPREAD: Falcons (+3). STRAIGHT PICK: Falcons.

Lake Erie Fishing Hotline Contributed Article NYS Dept. of Enviornmental Conservation

Attention anglers: The Lake Erie Fishing Hotline will not be updated for the week of September 16 to September 23. Next update will be on September 23. Lake Erie and Harbors Angler holding 21 pound lake trout caught in 80 feet of water off Dunkirk Harbor. 21 pound lake trout caught off Dunkirk Harbor on worm harness run near the bottom. Anglers continue to report good walleye fishing west of Sturgeon Point in 65-75 feet of water. Worm harnesses and stickbaits run near the bottom have worked well in the morning hours, producing some early limits. Off Cattaraugus Creek, trollers are catching walleye in 65-70 feet of water on gear run within 10 feet of bottom. Dunkirk anglers are picking up some suspended walleye, 50-60 feet down over 80-90 feet of water. Yellow perch reports went cold again, although walleye trollers between Cattaraugus and Sturgeon Point are catching some on each outing. Smallmouth bass fishing continues to improve in the Buffalo area. Anglers are catching bass around harbor gaps and around small reefs, rock piles and

humps between the breakwalls and international line. The deep edges of larger reefs such as Seneca Shoal, Myers Reef and Evans Bar are also good bass options. A drop-shot rig with crayfish, tube jigs or plastics are good bass offerings. For more bass fishing information see the Smallmouth Bass Fishing on Lake Erie page. Attention Anglers: Rehabilitation of the Dunkirk Fishing Platform has been completed and it is now open for fishing. Upper Niagara River The only consistent catches from City of Buffalo shore sites seem to be gobies and sheepshead. However, anglers who are there at the right time catch a brief flurry of yellow perch or white bass, and the occasional hefty smallmouth bass or walleye. Some nice sized smallmouth bass have shown for boaters fishing drop-shot or bottom bouncing rigs with crayfish, shiners or tubes. The occasional walleye has also been caught near the head of the river. Chautauqua Lake The south basin walleye bite is still going strong in 14-18 feet of water. Trolling with worm harnesses or stickbaits has worked well. North basin anglers are also catching some walleye along the 20-30 foot contours by trolling or vertical jigging with blade baits. Muskellunge fishing remains a little slow, but anglers are still catching some along weed edges and

SPORTS 35

over deeper water of 35-40 feet, on gear run 15-20 feet down. Anglers are catching a mix of nice sized bluegill and yellow perch around weed beds. Small jigs with grubs works well for bluegill and small minnows are preferred by perch. Inland Trout Fishing All of the area streams have low flows and many have warm water. Keep in mind that hooking and playing trout in warm waters can be lethal to trout. Western New York anglers have a variety of Wild Trout Streams and Stocked Trout Streams to choose from. In addition, Public Fishing Rights Maps are available for many of the region's best trout streams. Check out the Fishing For Stream Trout page for introductory information on trout baits, lures, fishing equipment and techniques. If you need more fishing information or would like to contribute to the fishing report, please call or email Mike Todd (716-851-7010; michael.todd@dec. ny.gov). Good Luck Fishing! The fishing hotline can also be heard at (716) 679ERIE or (716) 855-FISH.
