By Jon Hochschartner jonh@denpubs.com

CHAMPLAIN — The roles of the village and town of Champlain in the W ar of 1812 a re b eing h onored b y three new historical interpretative panels.

The panels will be erected in the village at the historic home of village founder Pliny Moor e on Oak Str eet and a stone farmhouse on Prospect Str eet used as a British commissary when the British mar ched to Plattsburgh in September 1814. The thir d pa nel will be erected in the town at the former Dewey's Tavern, located at the intersection of State Route 276 and Prospect Hill Road.

Celine R. Paquette, founder of the Samuel de Champlain History Center , said the panels helped to re mind us of our history.

“It’s such a wonderful educational tool,” Paquette said. “I think we for get what happened her e 200 years ago to make our communities what they ar e today.”

stalling the panels was important.

“It’s important because there’s a lot of history in Champlain,” Patrick said, referring specifically to the conflict between Britain and the United States. “Champlain town saw more activity than any other town in the county.”

Champlain Village Mayor Greg Martin struck a similar note.

“These interpr etive panels ar e important because they portray the contribution that the village of Champlain played in the War of 1812,” Martin said.

“It gives people a sense of the history of the village.”

The mayor said he hoped the panels would spark interest in local history.

“The placement of these panels will allow visitors to stop and read the information on them,” Martin said.

“Hopefully, it will spur some inter est in looking at the history of the village of Champlain overall.”

“It’s going to be a good opportunity for people to get together and enjoy the foliage before the winter season starts,” said Yu. The day-long event will also include bir d-watching

walks, a silent auction and raffles, and a pot luck meal from 1 to 3 p.m. Yu will also lead a g eocaching w alk a nd introduction at 1 1 a.m. The pastime — which involves people hiding and sear ching for containers of varying sizes with various “tr easures” inside — has caught on in popularity in r ecent years locally, he said. “[Geocaching] is something I r eally enjoy doing,”

said Yu. “It’s something that will take you places you might never expect to go and it’s something you can do with your kids.”

Geocaching involves going on-line to websites like www.geocaching.com, r egistering, and reading a map of locations wher e geocaches are located.

Highway department moves into new home one year after blaze

It’s FALL OPEN HOUSE time!

Saturday, October 1st, 9-5pm

DANNEMORA — The Town of Dannemora Highway Department finally has a permanent home.

The highway department received its certificate of occupancy and moved into its new building on T own Garage Road last week more than a year after a devastating blaze claimed the former building that housed the department’s offices and vehicles.

Highway Superi ntendent Howard “Pete” Barber said moving fr om temporary trailers into the new 90 sq. ft by 120 sq. ft. building has been a long-awaited transition.

“Now, we’ll be able to house our vehicles inside in time for winter,” said Barber, who said leaving the department’s snowplows and other equipment out in the elements has luckily had no impact on them so far.

“It’s also good to keep

them out of the sun,” added Barber, who noted sunlight can cause cracking on exposed belts and hoses.

The four-bay building will include ample space for vehicles and equipment, said Barber, including space to perform r outine maintenance. The town is hoping to keep e nergy c osts d own b y utilizing a wood-burning furnace using wood collected and donated by state Department o f Transportation crews and the town’s own highway department crews.

The process to replace the former garage — a circ a 1961 Quonset hut — and the approximately $1 million worth of equipment inside was lengthy , accor ding to Town Supervisor America “Ves” Pivetta. Thr ee snowplows and a fr ont-end loader were destroyed, leading the town to pur chase new ones to replace them for a combined cost of appr oximately $619,000.

The overall cost to build the new building was $2 mil-

lion, funded partly by $400,000 provided by insurance coverage on the former building. The town council moved forwar d with an increase in the town tax levy last November and took out two loans, at 30 years and 20 years, r espectively, to cover the remainder of the cost.

Regardless, Pivetta said he’s glad to see the highway department have a formal building it can call home once again.

“It’s been a tough r oad,” said Pivetta, adding plans to relocate the r est of the town’s municipal of fices there are still on hold.

“That part will have to wait until we can get a grant of some kind ... money’s tight with the State of New York,” he added.

ON THE C OVER: H ighway Superintendent Howard “Pete” Barber stands next to a new wood-burning furnace in the new town highway department building. The furnace is a new feature that will keep heating expenses down for the town building, said Barber.

Publisher’s Viewpoint

Denton Publications Editorial

The answer is not foreign workers

N

ews last week that V ermont has long had a standing policy of “looking the other way” when it comes to migrant workers residing in this country illegally has disturbed many around the region.

The announcement was made Sept. 15 by Gov. Peter Shumlin after two Mexican laborers wer e pulled over by V ermont state troopers, detained and later turned over to U.S. Border Patrol Agents.

The troopers were following the law, but Shumlin made it clear that he wants his state to be able to interpre t the law as it sees fit — meaning not turn over undocumented workers to the federal government for deportation.

“We have always had a policy in Vermont where we kind of look the other way as much as we can,” the governor told r eporters. “I just want to make sur e that’s what we’re doing.”

“We know the federal government wants to send them home. And we don’t,” he said.

Comments fr om r eaders have ranged from those sympathetic to the workers and the farmers who often have difficulty filling badly needed minimum wage positions, to utter outrage against a governor who would support jobs for illegals over jobs for his own state’s unemployed.

There is certainly merit in both ar guments, but from our perspective it appears Shumlin was simply being honest.

Right or wrong, the fact is migrant workers do make up a significant number of employees in places wher e American citizens just don’t want to work for the paycheck offered — like dairy farms. Like meat pr ocessing plants. And, politicians have been turning their backs to it for decades.

Shumlin was just manning up and telling it like it is: It’s going on all over the country.

While S humlin’s h onesty i s r efreshing, his methodology is anything but.

First, he is advocating for br eaking the law, not changing it.

Regardless of his personal beliefs, Shumlin can’t take an oath to uphold the laws of his state in one br eath and then tell state troopers to look the other way in another.

At the same time, workers in this country who are not citizens — who do no possess a valid social security card and identification — bring their own host of pr oblems with them.

From crushing impacts on our health care

system to the inability to hold them accountable for taxes to skewing our census, the fact is pr oblems arise when we factor migrant workers into the population.

That cannot be denied, wether you believe they b elong her e or not. Th erefore, Shumlin should be working to change the system, not figuring out ways to circumvent it.

Finally, there is the argument that migrant workers take jobs away from citizens of this country. If that is tr uly not the case, then we have a much deeper problem.

With nearly one in 10 Americans without a job and workers needed in jobs being taken by those who do not r eside here legally, than we have both a welfar e system and work ethic that need changing.

This country was built on har d work by the unentitled; it is time we go back to that way of thinking. Ther e is something very wrong with a society that pays its people not to work.

A solution to both our unemployment problem and our illegal immigrant problem would be to put our unemployed U.S. citizens in the jobs held by, as Shumlin put it, “guest workers” from outside the country.

Make it a condition of collecting an unemployment check each week that a citizen spend a certain number of hours working at a farm or other industry in need. Potential employers could be added to a list which could be distributed to those collecting unemployment.

Workers could then pr ove they’ve put their time in before the next check would be handed over.

The system would save places like dairy farms in overhead — putting people to work that the government is already paying to be unemployed — while teaching life skills to those who would otherwise be sitting home collecting from the government.

At last count, nearly 40,000 people in V ermont and 1.3 million in New York were out of work. If Gov . Shumlin’s solution to the unemployment pr oblem is to give the jobs we do have to those illegally in our country , then his plan is seriously flawed.

The scourge known as late blight

A

nyone who gr ew tomatoes and potatoes in 2009 r emembers how devastating late blight can be to your gar den. Since then, we’ve kept a closer watch on this disease to pr oactively protect our gardens.

Over the summer , confirmed infestations of late blight have crept closer and closer to the North Country. Unfortunately, it has been confirmed in the Plattsburgh area recently.

Just a few weeks ago, late blight had been confirmed as close as Vermont and the Albany ar ea. Then, Hurricane Ir ene came bringing with her wind, rain, flooding, and late blight spores. Luckily, it is at the end of the season and with some pr otection, you can still enjoy a bountiful harvest.

Late blight looks like black/br own lesions on the leaves, stems, and fru it of the plant. The lesions can look fuzzy during cool, moist conditions. The fungus spr eads quickly within the plant, causing the plant to die within days.

Since potatoes are pretty close to being finished, the best line of defense for this cr op is to harvest the tubers. First cut all the tops off of the plants. Leave the tubers in the gr ound for several days to cur e, dig, and enjoy your spuds!

Cutting the tops of the plants off and allowing the tubers to cur e ar e important steps in the potato harvest you don’t want to skip. Late blight needs living tissue to survive. Removing the tops of the plants reduces the chances

of having the tubers become infected. Curing the tubers, allows for the skins to toughen. This pr events damage to the tubers during the harvesting process, reducing the chances of infection.

With the cool wet spring we had, our tomatoes got off to a late start so there are still plenty ripening on our vines.

One way to save your crop is to bring any tomatoes inside that are showing any color at all. Place the tomatoes in a sunny kitchen window and they will ripen.

If you feel the need to spray your gar den start now befor e ther e ar e any late blight symptoms. Home gardeners can use copper or chlorothalonil. If you do choose to spray, follow the instructions and pay close attention to the waiting period between spraying and harvesting.

If you suspect a late blight infection, take a sample to your local Cornell Cooperative Extension. They can diagnose the issue and provide you with further instr uctions on how to properly dispose of your plants. Pr oper disposal is vital if we want to prevent the spread of late blight to other gardens.

Breaking free from interstitial cystitis

By Jon Hochschartner jonh@denpubs.com

Wendy Farrell w ent eight y ears without a diag nosis of int erstitial cystitis, a condition which is still not very well-known. IC Awareness Month is celebrated in September, which raises awareness for people like Farrell.

File photo by Jeremiah S. Papineau

PLATTSBURGH — W endy Farr ell said her eight years without a diagnosis of interstitial cystitis demonstrates the importance of IC Awareness Month, which is celebrated in September.

The cause of IC is not known, accor ding to the National Library of Medicine’s PubMed Health website. The site states IC is “a painful condition due to inflammation of the tissues of the bladder wall ... The condition generally occurs ar ound age 30 to 40, although it has been r eported in younger people.

Women are 10 times more likely to have IC than men.”

Symptoms of IC include pain during intercourse, p elvic p ain, u rinary d iscomfort, urinary fr equency, and urinary ur gency, accor ding to PubMed Health.

Farrell, who now works at CVPH Medical Center, said before she was diagnosed with IC, she was living in “constant pain.” She added IC held her back in work, saying ther e were times when she had to go to the bathr oom every 15 to 20 minutes.

“I can tell you in Plattsbur gh pretty

much where every bathroom is because I had to know that,” Farrell said.

In fact, Farrell has two brothers who she didn’t visit for approximately four years because they lived in New Hampshire. Being in the car for the amount o f t ime r equired t o g et t here was not an option, she said.

Diagnosing IC is dif ficult because it’s made through a process of elimination, eliminating the possibility of bladder cancer and sexually transmitted disease.

“It’s not like a blood test that you can take and say, ‘Oh, you have IC,’” Farrell said.

Often the condition is falsely diagnosed as a urinary tract infection.

“Patients often go years without a correct diagnosis,” accor ding to PubMed Health. “On average, ther e is about a four -year delay between the time the first symptoms occur and the diagnosis is made.”

Farrell was diagnosed about two years ago by a doctor in Burlington, Vt. “It was such a weight of f my shoulders to know — not that I wanted to be sick, but to know what was causing it,” Farrell said.

During the following year, she was taking up to 20 pills a day to try to ease

the symptoms of IC. Farr ell said the pills left her “very gr oggy and disoriented,” so she was often for ced to choose between going to work in pain, or staying home without suffering.

The pain for her was particularly triggered by stress. Thankfully, about a year ago, she began work at CVPH, at a job she said was much less str essful than her previous one.

Her level of stress dropped so much that she no longer needs to take medication. That said, she still does have occasional flar e-ups of IC symptoms.

She still can’t eat spicy and acidic foods, or drink caffeine.

“Most days are pretty good,” Farrell said. “Occasionally , you’ll have days that are quite painful.”

Farrell said ther e needs to be a greater awareness about IC among doctors and the public.

“I think it’s important to help other people out ther e so they don’t think that it’s all in their head,” Farrell said, of sufferers. “You get to a point wher e you feel crazy, because no doctors can figure out what’s wrong.”

Farrell said those who wanted support or information r egarding IC should call her at 593-9230.

‘Taste of Home’ returns to Crete Nov. 5 Cooking school to feature chef Eric Villegas

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

PLATTSBURGH — The Taste of Home Cooking School is back by popular demand.

Denton Publications and other fine sponsors will bring the Taste of Home Cooking School back to the Crete Memorial Civic Center Saturday, Nov. 5, once again giving people an opportunity to learn helpful tips and techniques thr ough informative cooking demonstrations.

Ed Coats, associate publisher of Denton Publications and New Market Pr ess, has been or ganizing T aste of Home l ocally s ince f irst o ffering i t i n B urlington, V t., six years ago. Coats worked to get the event this side of Lake Champlain last year , seeing a lar ge number of New Yorkers attending it faithfully year after year.

And, last year exceeded

Coats’ expectations, with more than 1,100 in attendance.

“Last year was great,” said Coats. “The show was completely sold out. Unfortunately, we had to turn people away at the door because we had no more space or goodie bags.”

Coats anticipates a similar level of interest in this year’s event, he said.

“We’ve been getting calls since June asking if we wer e doing it again,” said Coats.

“Actually, people wer e asking us right after last year ’s show if we would be bringing it back. People ar e excited for Taste of Home.”

The event will center around demonstrations from Taste of Home culinary specialist Eric Villegas, who has conducted T aste of Home shows across the country. According to the Taste of Home website, V illegas has had a love for the culinary arts since he was a child. He earned his bachelor ’s degree in fr om Michigan State University befor e moving to Paris wher e he attended LaVarenne Ecole de Cuisine

and Academie du V in. Villegas returned to the States to continue his studies at the New England Culinary Institute.

Villegas has also owned two restaurants, written two cookbooks, and earned two regional Emmy awar ds for his popular television show , “Fork in the Road with Eric Villegas.”

Coats said he’s excited to have V illegas bring his expertise to the North Country, following in the footsteps of last year ’s featur ed chef, Michael Barna.

“Michael did a gr eat job last year . He r eally wowed the cr owd,” said Coats.

“And, that’s what makes the show inter esting is that we get a new chef every year, so you never know what to expect and what new things you’ll learn.”

Taste of Home will also feature booths hosted by more t han 3 0 l ocal v endors, featuring cooking utensils, home furnishings, bakeries and r epresentatives fr om companies like Pamper ed Chef, Celebrating Home and Mary Kay.

“There’s something for everyone,” said Coats. “This is going to be another gr eat event thanks to our vendors, our sponsors and the City of Plattsburgh Recr eation Department for all the do to get the Cr ete Center r eady, particularly Steve Peters. Steve has been extremely helpful to help us get this event back here again this year.”

The cost of admission is $15. Advance tickets ar e available, which Coats encourages people pur chase to avoid not being turned away at the door if the event sells out again.

Doors will open for the event at 10:30 a.m., with the show t o b egin a t 2 p .m. Attendees get free goodie bags.

Door prizes will be awarded.

Tickets may be pur chased at Price Chopper in Plattsburgh, Champlain and Lake Placid. Tickets are also available at Wilson's Appliance Center in Plattsburgh and the Plattsburgh office of Denton Publications.

Color Me Safe with the ABC’s

Always watch for cars.

Our children are our most precious resource. They deserve and need protection and guidance from all responsible adults. As adults we are aware of the importance of our children’s safety, but children must learn safe habits and become aware of safety for themselves. Take some time, spend it with your child and color the letters and illustrations on this page. Each of the 26 blocks contains a safety message and a letter of the alphabet. Each block also contains the name of the business or industry sponsoring the block. When you and your child finish coloring the page, hang it in a prominent spot and refer to it often, discuss the rules of safety frequently and add to them as your child reaches new levels of understanding.

The North Countryman is pleased with this special supplement for our children.

We are proud to offer it and wish to thank all of the concerned and responsible businesses represented here.

Without car e at home, Marcus would need to li ve in a nursing home. The company up for the county home health license isn’t certified for pediatric car e.

The closest nursing home for children Alexander could find was in New York City.

In a written statement read by Parent as Alexander tended to her colicky child, Alexander told the legislature she hopes they remember her son’s face, because if he must live in a nursing home, she’ll have to stay locally to take care of her other children.

“I won’t be able to see his face, and he won’t be able to see mine,” she wrote.

People protesting the privatization of home health care in Clinton County filled the legislative chamber at the Sept. 14 meeting. Legislators voted to sell the county’s home health care to HCR Home Care of Rochester.

United Way offering mini-grants for flood victims PLATTSBURGH — The United Way of theAdirondack Region, Inc. is offering mini grants to organizations that help individuals and families with disaster assistance.

At the r equest of business and individual donors from throughout the region, the agency has established a fund to aid in the r ecovery ef forts from Tropical Storm Ir ene. The fund was established initially at the r equest of New York’s North Country Ford Automobile Dealers in the r egion, who seeded the fund.

“Hurricane Irene really did a number on this community and we felt that this was the time to step up and see what we could do to help out, said Dennis Egglefield, owner of Egglefield Br os. For d in Elizabethtown.

“I’m very proud that we Ford dealers could come together and cr eate something that can really make a difference i n t he l ives o f s ome o f o ur neighbors,” added Joy V anLeuvan, general manager of Riley For d in Chazy.

Numerous other businesses, groups and individuals have also contributed to the special fund, including the organizers and patrons of the Battle of Plattsburgh.

The disaster r elief mini-grants ar e available to or ganizations providing direct service to individuals and families that have been affected by the recent di saster i n Cl inton, E ssex, a nd Franklin Counties. Priority will be given to or ganizations pr oviding services that addr ess the unmet needs of storm victims. There are lim-

ited funds so it is important for organizations to exhaust all available resources befor e applying for monies. The intention of the allotted funds is to pr ovide a safety net for needs that ar e unmet by insurance agencies, g overnment ag encies, a nd other sources.

The mini-grants can be used for: supplies, r epairs, housing expenses, transportation e xpenses, u tility a ssistance and appliances, health and human service needs and other disaster related expenses.

The application for funds is available at the United Way of the Adirondack Region, Inc. 45 T om Miller Road, Plattsbur gh, N.Y. 12901. Call the United Way office at 563-0028 for more information or dial 2-1-1 for additional information and referrals.

Jeffords said that the participation level in his company is around 95 to 98 percent, and that he tries to match the employees’ donation, even as the company has grown.

“The one thing that we tell them is that they have the fortune of having a job while many others don’t,” Jeff ords said. “We ask them to give whatever they think they can give and typically, they step up and do that.”

As part of the pacesetter pr ogram, which involves companies that participate in early fundraising drives, ther e has been $155,913.65 donated to the United Way, just over one-fifth of the goal for the 2012 campaign.

Cedar, the ‘Gladiator’ S

ummer drawing to a close gives me a warm f uzzy feeling for a whole host of r easons.

The cool bugless evenings.

The changing colors. The impending hunting seasons. The way it feels to go commando in a pair of woolies.

Last but not least, I love this time of year for the annual ritual of nasty , filthy , vile, godawful, disease riddled, t oothy v armints t aking up residence for the winter months in the eves of my home.

Like sand thr ough the hour glass, these are the days of my life. At least in the fall.

And I hate it.

I’ve set traps. I’ve cover ed openings with thick wire a trout worm couldn’t wiggle through. I’ve eaten a bunch of venison and washed it down with lots of cheap beer.

In hindsight, I’m not sur e how that helped, but it sur e kept the neighbors at arm’s length.

It didn’t seem to bother the varmints, though.

Nope, fact was I needed a better plan. So, while finishing of f my last Milwaukee’s Best, it hit me: I’d arm my humble abode with the meanest varmint assassin I could find — the Chuck Norris of the cat world.

The type of feline that picks its teeth with piano wire, drinks from a broken ma-

son jar and sharpens its claws with pool chalk.

The kind that can take a punch fr om Geor ge For eman — or at least one of his handy fat-reducing grills.

The kind that can bury its own poo on a marble floor.

You get the idea.

There was one slight fault in my infallible plan, though. When it came time to choose my attack cat, I let the girlfriend go in my stead. She came home from the shelter with not one, but two cats, because, as she put it, “I couldn’t break up sisters.”

(This is the part in the story wher e I stick my finger down my throat.)

“Aren’t they cute,” she said, opening her outstretched hand and unveiling two tiny orange balls of fluf f with eyes the size of quarters.

“Nooooooooohhhhhhhhhh,” I screamed over my plate of venison, jumping to my feet a nd n early k nocking o ver m y P abst Blue Ribbon.

“I didn’t want cute,” I scr eamed, hands on my hips, staring down at the quarter sized eyes attached to the pieces of orange fluff in the outstretched hand.

“Blink, blink” went the eyes.

“I wanted a killing machine,” I blurted through venison and beer spittle. “These are not mouse assassins.”

“These ar e not cats that could take a punch.”

Vendors Needed!

Taste of Home Cooking School will be holding a cooking school November 5th at the Crete Civic Center. We have limited booth space available for the show.

Booths open 21⁄2 hours before show time and you can show and or sell your goods or products to over 1,500 eager shoppers.

Don’t let the cute, innocent look fool you — this dog is a Gladiator!

“Blink, blink” went the eyes.

“These are not ... they are ... well, I guess they are kind of cute.”

Fast forward to last evening. I’m on the couch, feet up in my lounge loafers, eating venison and watching my Yankees duke it out with Seattle, a fat, lazy orange cat on either side, slumbering away.

“Plop” the first disease riddled varmint of the season showed its nasty, filthy, vile, godawful, toothy little face, landing smack in the middle of my hardwood floor.

“Brfff, rffff .... mrfff,” I said, choking on a piece of venison.

“Mouse,” I finally blurted out slapping

at the cats with my free hand.

“Fire mission, fire mission,” I yelled, reverting for a second to my days as an Army gunner.

I stood back, not wanting to get tangled up in what was sur e to be an epic battle, the likes of which had not been played out since Russell Crowe fought those tigers in the movie “Gladiator.”

But the cats never moved.

“Blink, blink” went their eyes.

“Whyyyyyyyyyyy,” I wailed, arms stretched towar d the ceiling, like Nancy Kerrigan after getting whacked in the shin at that practice session during the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.

Then, just when I thought all was lost, a black head emer ged fr om beneath a pink blanket.

Like a tiny super her o, my dachshund Cedar shot off the recliner, skidded across the floor and flipped the hapless rodent in the air , snatching it in her surprisingly powerful weiner dog jaws.

Turning to the cats, shoestring-like tail hanging fr om her mouth, Cedar sat and waited for the sign fr om the Colosseum crowd. Much to the chagrin of the mouse, two furry legs shot out and slowly turned paws down.

But Cedar, the Gladiator, just turned and sauntered away with her prey, not giving the spectators the satisfaction.

“That’s my dog,” I thought to myself, er suming my seat at the throne and taking a long swig of my Genny Cream Ale.

Beekmantown, Peru score wins, PHS falls during football weekend

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com TUPPER LAKE — After a tight first half, the Saranac Lake Red Storm football team jumped out for 21 points in the thir d quarter as they retained the Mayor’s Cup trophy with a 33-12 victory against the Tupper Lake Lumberjacks Sept. 16.

“Once this of fense starts r olling, it’s tough to stop,” Red Storm head coach Eric Bennett said after the game. “In the first half, we should have had more, but I told the team that we needed to be patient.”

The Red Storm took a 6-0 lead in the opening quarter when quarterback Matt Phelan connected with Devin Darrah on an 84-yar d pass play , their r esponse to Tupper Lake’s opening 17 play , 54-yar d drive that stalled on the Red Storm’s 17 yard line.

“It was a huge lift,” Bennett said. “It’s good when our defense takes a team and their str ength on and is able to stop it.

Then we hit Darrah on the slant play and that was big.”

“We wanted to keep the ball out of their hands,” Tupper Lake head coach Dennis Klossner said. “W e wer e doing a lot of good things and the something would happen that would set us back.”

“Devin made a gr eat catch,” Phelan said. “On the scr een passes, out slots made a lot of gr eat blocks to open things up for our ends.”

Phelan scored all three touchdowns the Red Storm scor ed in the thir d quarter on runs of 16, 64 and three yards. Phelan finished the game 9-for -17 passing for 217 yards and one touchdown, while running the ball 10 times for 144 yar ds and thr ee scores.

“He is an outstanding athlete,” Bennett said about the junior quarterback. “There is still some things that he needs to work on, but he works very hard.”

“I’m just honor ed to be a part of this team,” Phelan said. “Our defense stepped up tonight and played well. It’s like a storybook where it just keeps getting better with each chapter.”

Mike Burpoe added 44 yar ds r ushing for Saranac Lake, while Lance Akerson scored on an 18-yar d r un and Kyle Dora combined 17 r ushing yar ds with 21 r eceiving yards. Darrah had 106 total yards receiving including the 84-yar d scor ed, while Kevin Morgan caught four balls for 82 yards.

For the Lumberjacks, T im Ropas, used mainly in the second half, ran the ball 10 times for 121 yar ds and both of the T upper Lake scor es. Mor gan Stevens was 8for-13 passing for 69 yar ds, but thr ew a pair of inter ceptions. The Saranac Lake defense limited Stevens and Jor dan Garrow to 23 yards on a combined 28 carries.

“Ropas and Garrow do a great job, and they are two really good backs,” Klossner said. “We wer e happy with the pr essure that we started to get on the quarterback, we were just a half-step shy.”

Hornets fall to Gouverneur The Plattsbur gh Hornets held a 22-6 lead heading into halftime, but wer e un-
