BEEKMANTOWN — When Randy Duprey succumbed to scler oderma nearly two years ago, his wife, Kate, wanted to make sure he wouldn’t be forgotten. That’s why she’s continued to organize the annual Scleroderma W alk in Memory of Randy Duprey.

The event — which also raises awareness of scler oderma and money for The Scler oderma Foundation to r esearch and find a cure for the autoimmune disease — is one that means a lot to Duprey, she said.

“Every year , this time of year brings so much emotion back for me,” said Dupr ey, who lost her husband in January 2009 and held the first walk in his honor just months later. “That is what drives me to make this walk so special and honorable to my husband.”

Duprey said she prepares all year for the event which, in the end , is one of her favorite days.

“I look forwar d to it so much for [their son] Alek, for Randy's family, and for all the people who are fighting with this disease,” she said.

Duprey sa id she also has a concern her late husband’s condition could be genetic and passed down to their 3-year -old son.

Though doctors tell her the possibility of Alek developing scleroderma is one in 100, it’s still too frightening a statistic to think about, she said.

“It scares me to death to think of reliving this nightmare ... if I have to, I want to know

June 11 - 17, 2011

I did everything in my power to find a cur e,” said Duprey, who noted two other individuals in Clinton County alone lost their battles with scleroderma in the past year.

This year ’s Scleroderma Walk in Memory of Randy Dupr ey will be held this Sunday , June 12, at the Beekmantown Recr eation Park on Spellman Road beginning with registration at 9 a.m. The five-kilometer walk/run will begin at approximately 10:15 a.m. Participants may choose to complete the full course or stop at one-mile or twomile checkpoints along the way.

The event will include a bake sale, silent auction, and 50/50 drawing, as well as bounce houses and face painting for children. Live music and food sales will also help round out the event.

Duprey said she’s looking forward to seeing family, friends and supporters of a cure for s cleroderma t o o nce a gain t urn o ut i n great numbers. Regar dless of how many participate, however , Dupr ey said she is grateful for the support she and her late husband have r eceived from the community.

“My husband's goal was to pay it forward to a community that helped him and his family d uring a v ery d ifficult t ime i n o ur lives. This community allows me to fulfill that mission each year,” she said, adding the money raised stays local to help those with scleroderma. “That I will forever be grateful for.”

TNA Wrestling superstar ‘Robbie E.’ coming back

Wrestler to return to support Relay for Life next weekend

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

PLATTSBURGH — When TNA Wrestling came to town recently, the crowd went wild.

And, when pr ofessional wrestler Robbie E. came to town, he had the chance to meet a group of ladies who he couldn’t resist seeing again.

John LaHart, who pr omotes TNA Wrestling events locally with partner Gary Hathaway, said Robert “Robbie E.” Strauss had the chance to meet with Aeropostale’s Angels, one of several teams signed up to participate in the upcoming Relay for Life at the Clinton County Fair grounds in Morrisonville.

“We talked at the event about Robbie coming back up to help the girls raise money for Relay for Life and he was all for it. He just wanted to confirm that he could come back and when he found out he could, he was mor e than happy to,” said LaHart.

“It means a lot to me, bro,” said Robbie E. “Helping out with something like this is one of the great things I get to do with my profession, man.”

Though Robbie E. said he has never had anyone in his

life dir ectly af fected by cancer, helping those who have is important to him.

“I do though feel for anyone that has to go thr ough something like this and praise how strong and positive they are,” he said, adding he’s looking forward to his return to the ar ea for the event that benefits the American Cancer Society. “This is part of why I love what I do ... Getting the chance to help out with things like this. It’s an honor.”

Robbie E. will r eturn Friday, Sept . 17, to help man a Relay fo r L ife b ooth f or t he Aeropostale’s Angels, a team consisting of employees of the Champlain C entre s tore a nd their friends.

Rachel Guyton, one of the team’s members, was excited to learn Robbie E. was coming back.

“We knew John was working on getting a wr estler to come back for [Relay for Life], but we weren’t sure who. We would’ve been happy with anyone fr om TNA, but we were really happy to find out it was Robbie E. W e all liked him,” said Guyton.

The TNA personality will be on hand at the overnight event and will even stick

around for a few appearances on Satur day, June 18. Robbie E. will sign autographs at the FYE store in Champlain Centre starting at 1 1 a.m. and be there u ntil h e h eads o ver t o Therapy Nightclub and Sports Lounge on downtown Margaret Street as part of the business’s one-year anniversary celebration sponsored by Therapy and Y106.3 FM. “We’re excited Robbie was kind enough to donate his time to do an autograph signing and be part of our anniversary celebration,” said club co-owner Jimmy T aber.

“We’re going to have a lot going on, cr eating a bit of an expo with all the vendors that work with us and unveiling our new menu.”

“I think it’s pr etty incredible Robbie will be her e,” Taber added. “TNA is an awesome organization.”

Making appearances like these are what TNA Wrestling is all about, said LaHart.

“TNA W restling car es about the places they visit. It’s very important to them to get involved in the communities they stop in so they can show their appreciation for the fans that support them,” said LaHart.

TNA Wrestling superstar Robert “Robbie E.” Strauss poses for photos at the recent TNA event held at the Crete Memorial Civic Center in Plattsburgh. Strauss will return to the area to help raise money for the American Cancer Society through Relay for Life next week.

Unions should make concessions; Gov’s should stop threatening layoffs

T

he ongoing power str uggle between the New York state governor ’s office and state workers’ unions must stop if we’re ever going to have a stable state workforce.

In the past few years, the governors — David Paterson in 2009 and 2010 and now Andrew Cuomo — have thr eatened to lay of f thousands of state workers in ord er to make up for multi-billion-dollar shortfalls in the state budgets. This year , with the budget actually passed on time, Gov . Cuomo has built a $450 million savings in the appr oved 201 1-12 spending plan based on union concessions.

It’s a brilliant move on his part and pr ovides leverage with union contract negotiations. The governor will either get the concessions he wants or lay of f about 9,800 state workers in order to achieve the self-imposed mandate to cut $450 million.

Cuomo and Paterson have each met str ong opposition by the powerful public employee unions, including Council 82, CSEA and PEF. Paterson and the unions came to an agre ement

Denton Publications, Inc.

Our goal at Denton Publications is to publish accurate, useful and timely information in our newspapers, news product s, shopping guide s, vacation guides, and other specialty public ations for the benefit of our readers and adver tisers. W e value your comment s and sugge stions concerning all aspects of this publication.

in 2009, after several months of wrangling, in which the governor finally pledged not to lay off state workers. It was a welcome reprieve for employees. But it didn’t last long. Just befor e leaving office at the end of 2010, Paterson once again threatened layoffs. And now Cuomo has picked up that ball and is r unning with it, all the way to the end zone and $450 million in savings.

But who is right?

It’s a tough call.

Overall, we’d rather see the unions make concessions and pr event layof fs. The sooner , the better.

Unfortunately, members of Council 82 — a union representing SUNY police and uniformed DEC personnel — r ecently r ejected a contract that called for a wage freeze and other givebacks. We hope other unions don’t follow suit.

These unions traditionally act as though they can have their cake and eat it, too: keeping jobs while not making concessions. But we’re not sure Cuomo will capitulate as easily as Paterson did in 2009. The unions have r un into a stone wall this time, and if they push the governor too hard, he’ll just start cutting jobs.

“The clock is ticking” he r ecently told r eporters.

New York can’t afford to lose jobs. And our North Country communities — many of which rely on state employment — can’t afford more

unemployment. The economy will suffer. More importantly, our family members and neighbors who work in these public positions will suffer.

It is often the low men on the totem pole that fall victim in these situations — with salaries that least impact tax dollars and a work ethic that surpasses their superiors.

That just drives more of our young from the region.

The bottom line is New York’s governors need to learn the consequences of their actions.

They wield the layoff ax too easily during these contract negotiations, and they are causing more harm than is necessary. Who suffers?

State workers, their families, and all citizens served by our state agencies.

When the governor thr eatens layof fs, he puts in motion an agency-by-agency assessment of departments and divisions, listing them by priority. Sometimes, certain staf f positions ar e tar geted for potential layof fs. Yet nobody r eally knows who will be cut in the end, if anybody.

So, logically, people get emotional. They start pr otecting themselves by seeking other employment “just in case.” Morale suf fers tremendously thr ough the entir e state workforce. And, no matter how har d managers try to keep their employees on task, pr oduction suffers. It’s downright depressing. Sometimes people leave state jobs “just in case” and their

positions are eliminated. And who wins? Certainly not taxpayers.

As sur e as tax time comes ar ound every April, governors keep thr eatening layof fs.

While the annual wave of job insec urity has undoubtedly weeded out some of the less pro ductive state workers, it has also taken its toll on the majority of loyal, hardworking ones.

We agr ee with Sen. Betty Little, R-Queensbury, that layoffs should be a last resort. Little’s spokesman, Dan MacEntee, r ecently spoke with this editorial board and told us that the senator hopes New York’s public unions can work successfully with the governor to help the state meet its budgetary goals during these tough economic times.

We urge the union leaders and members to approve contracts that help save the state $450 million. And, we ask Gov . Cuomo, and all those who ar e elected governor in the futur e, to stop using the harmful negotiation tactic of threatening layoffs.

This editorial is the collaborative opinion of a board comprised of Thom Randall, Fred Herbst, Lou V arricchio, Keith Lobdell, Jeremiah Papineau, Andy Flynn and John Gereau. Comments may be dir ected to denpubs@denpubs.com.

Guest Viewpoint

Property tax cap really doesn’t go far enough

I

n their desperate quest for something— anything—that might alleviate the property tax crisis, taxpayers are being led to believe Albany's proposed property tax cap is the answer to their prayers.

Unfortunately, in a single-minded push for the cap, the curr ent administration has discouraged debate and simply ignor ed many of the New Yorkers most overwhelmed by property taxes. They are the several hundred thousand r esidents alr eady paying unsustainable, double-digit per centages of their income in property tax.

Those r esidents will get no r elief fr om the cap. If you can’t aff ord your taxes today, you’re unlikely to find them mor e af fordable when they keep rising each year, as the cap provides.

Moreover, the cap’s pr oponents generally avoid explaining that the “tax cap” only caps the increase in tax levy -- not your tax bill. A two per cent cap on the tax levy can translate into a double-digit increase in your individual bill in a given year , due to individual assessment changes, reapportionment of the tax levy, etc.

Only the property tax relief measure known as a circuit breaker can help our most overburdened middle-class r esidents. Sometimes described as an “individual cap,” it ef fectively limits the net amount of household income most residents would have to pay in total property tax on their home by allowing a state income tax credit for part of the property tax paid over a designated per centage of income, usually in the six to nine percent range.

Renters, who pay taxes indir ectly thr ough the landlord, may also qualify.

Bipartisan legislation we support (S912, A5542) would initially cover families with household incomes up to $100,000 ($250,000 when fully phased in) and is ur gent to save homes and to help stem the middle-class flight from our state. Legislation just introduced (S4171, A7673) pr ovides a r esponsible blueprint for state funding of the circuit breaker in our austere fiscal environment.

While a cir cuit br eaker does not r educe spending, it will not lead to higher local budgets as STAR is thought to have done. That’s because of the way the cir cuit breaker benefit is

June 11 - 17, 2011

structured and because the credit would cover only 70 percent of the property tax paid above the income percentage.

The beneficiary’s 30 percent “co-pay” would ensure continued vigilance against budget creep.

Proponents of the tax cap argue that the cap will limit spending. That may happen, depending lar gely on local situations. The limit may end up as a help or a hindrance, depending on your point of view and the impact on services you may need or want. But whatever merit one perceives in a cap, it is misleading to portray it as “pr operty tax r elief” when it will only increase property taxes.

More and more New Yorkers are expressing concern over the drawbacks and limitations of a cap, especially without mandate relief and a circuit breaker. Albany should broaden the dialogue in the remaining days of the legislative session and enact a more comprehensive solution to the property tax crisis.

John Whiteley, who lives in Ticonderoga, is legislative affairs officer for the New York State Property Tax Reform Coalition.

Container gardening contest time!

O

ne aspect of living in Plattsburgh that I love is the city’s rich history .

Nothing may exemplify the city’s history as well as the Kent-Delor d House Museum. The museum is the dedicated to pr eserving the history of a family of community leaders how lived in Plattsbur gh fr om 1797 to 1913.

The Kent-Delord families were involved in the Battle of Plattsbur gh during the war of 1812, theAmerican Civil War, and the W omen’s Christian Temperance Union, a feminist group inter ested in pr ohibition, labor issues, banning prostitution, public health, and international peace.

During the period the Kent-Delor ds r esided in their Cumberland Avenue home, their gar dens would have been a pr ominent and integral part of the home. In days prior to modern medicine, gr ocery stor es, and r efrigeration, every home had a kitchen gar den. These gar dens contained medical and culinary herbs mixed with vegetable plants and flowers. Besides food and medicine, plants in this garden would have been grown for use as dyes and fragrances as well. A lar ger vegetable gar den was probably also located on the property.

In addition to this, the pr operty featured formal, geometric gardens strongly influenced by European styles. These gardens prevailed as front entrances to homes into the 19th century.

The property has had several additional gar dens including an East Gar den featuring several r oses,

grape arbors, and more. All of these gardens have been r ecreated and maintained by the Kent-Delor d House Museum Gar den Club. This fine group of volunteers sear ch for clues as to content and design of the gardens and use as many of the same species as possible to er -create the Delord family gardens.

This year, the Kent-Delord House Museum Gar den Club and Cook and Gar dener ar e teaming up to raise funds for the continued improvement and pr eservation of the house’s gar dens by holding a container gar dening contest. Entries can be obtained at Cook and Gar dener on Tom Miller Road in Plattsburgh. For a $5 entry fee, which is donated to the garden club, contestants receive a numbered pot. They are then encouraged to get creative and gr ow any style of container gar den he or she chooses. The pots are returned to Cook and Gardener for judging the weekend of July 9, which is the same weekend as the club’s yearly Secr et Gar den Tour. Pots will be judged by a panel of judges and can also be voted on by the public. The contest is a great way to express your gardening creativity, help preserve Plattsburgh’s historic gar dens, and possibly win some great prizes Anne Lenox Barlow is a pr ofessional horticulturist who enjoys gardening with her family in Plattsbur gh.

Making own almond butter

A

lmond butter is a great alternative to peanut butter. A lot of people miss out on its deliciousness because of the hefty price tag usually r unning about $10 per jar .

Well, for just a few minutes of your time, you can enjoy almond butter for a fraction of the price by making it yourself at home.

Almonds are one of the most nutritious nuts you can find. They ar e loaded with important vitamins and minerals to keep your body healthy and come with a hefty dose of protein and fiber. Almonds contain the essential fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6, vitamin E, zinc, calcium, ir on, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium.

They do have fat, however , do not be alarmed. Almonds contain menstruated fat which is the type of fat that is great for your heart (the same type of fat also found in olive oil and salmon).

But do remember, everything in moderation.

All you need for this r ecipe is raw almonds and a food pr ocessor. I usu-

I make small batches to keep it as fresh as possible. Once you have added the almonds to the food processor, start it up and watch it turn into cr eamy, dr eamy goodness. This will take a few minutes, so be patient. T owards the end you may want to scrape down the sides of the food pr ocessor until you reach the consistency you desir e, and that’s it. Easy, peasy ...

Local teenager provides inspiration for others

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

SARANAC — I an Yando didn’t ask to be an inspiration to others. He didn’t ask to be someone that people even several years older than him would look up to.

However, that’s what he’s become.

The 18-year -old Saranac Central High School student has had a long and difficult r oad that starts fr om the day he was born, said his mother, Cathy Yando.

Ian was born with Diamond–Blackfan anemia, a rare form of anemia that affects about one in 2 million people.

“We didn’t realize he even had this problem until he was about 7 weeks old,” said Yando.

That was when Ian simply stopped br eathing one night, said Yando, and was taken to the emer gency room. He was tr eated and later referred to a specialist in Burlington, Vt., who diagnosed Ian with his condition, which required him to have transfusions to boost his red blood cell count.

However, Ian wasn’t out of the woods. His transfusions led him to have an overload of ir on, which eventually had to be treated for that on a regular basis.

Most recently, Ian and his family traveled to the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis last year for Ian to r eceive a bone marrow transplant after it was noticed his white blood cell and platelet counts had also dropped.

“We were there for five months,” said Yando. “And, he never really complained, in spite of what he was going through.”

“Ian is someone that I look up t o ev en though he’s only 18 ...

It’s amazing f or someone his age to have the positive a ttitude he has.”

Susan LeBlanc Ian Yando’s Aunt It seemed as if things were finally starting to turn around for Ian — he was recovering well from his bone marrow transplant and was going back to school to pick up wher e he left of f earlier in the year. Then, about a week ago, he was diagnosed with colon cancer.

“It was a total surprise to his doctors,” said Yando.

“You just don’t see many 18year-olds with colon cancer.”

But, just as he’s done in the past, Ian has showed tremendous bravery despite the latest challenge to his health, said his mother.

“It’s a lot to deal with after so many years of issues, but he’s such a strong kid,” said Yando, who noted her son is now undergoing radiation and chemotherapy treatments at Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington.

“He never complains,” said Yando. “And, whenever we see other people going through something, he’s always more concerned about them. It just amazes me how strong he is.”

Susan LeBlanc, Ian’s aunt, agreed.

“Ian is someone that I look up to even though he’s only 18,” said LeBlanc.

“He’s dealt with illness since he was born and his attitude through it all has been just unbelievable. It’s amazing for someone his age to have the positive attitude he has.”

As Ian under goes his treatments, his family is also preparing to walk in the upcoming overnight Relay for Life event slated for Friday, June 17, at the Clinton County Fair grounds in Morrisonville. Y ando said she looks forward to partic-

ipating in the event this year in Ian’s honor , just as she has for the past four years in memory of her father, whom she and LeBlanc lost to prostate and bladder cancer.

“Relay f or L ife i s o ne o f the best things you can do to help others. It’s such a good cause,” Yando said of the event, which benefits the American Cancer Society .

“The thing about it is, sooner or later, everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer. It’s important to be ther e for them to show you’r e r ooting for them and to show you care .”

Joan Sterling, community executive for the American Cancer Society, said participation by families like Ian’s is cr ucial to helping fund cancer r esearch and raise awareness. Sterling also added that even though Relay for Life is only a week away, there’s still time to get on board with an event that can do so much for so many.

“It’s never too late to pull together a team,” said Sterling. “Even if you’r e not part of a team ... if you’r e a survivor or just want to show up to show your support, come. W e just want you there.”

Still time for Relay

Eighteen-year-old Ian Yando is seen here with Ted Kessler, director of Camp Ta-Kum-Ta, a summer camp in Vermont for children with cancer which Ian recently had the chance to visit. Ian is facing a bout with colon cancer.

News of the Week Out-of-towners busted for scamming Walmart PLATTSBURGH — State police have arrested a Colorado pair for an alleged scam against retail giant Walmart.

Martin Beranek, 52, and Michael Underwood, 36, r ecently r eturned to Plattsburgh to r espond to warrants issued for their arrest in connection to a January 2010 incident. State police allege the two changed UPC codes on items once inside the Plattsburg h store, lowering their prices then pur chasing them befor e r eturning the items for their full price value. The scam is believed to be part of a plan to defraud Walmart locations along the East Coast.

Underwood is facing a felony assault charge for allegedly r unning over the foot of a security guard who attempted to stop the pair . He was r emanded to Clinton County Jail where he posted a $10,000 bond.

Beranek was char ged with thir d-degree burglary and later released on his own recognizance.

The pair ar e expected to r espond to charges in court this month.

Smoking policy progress stalled at county level PLATTSBURGH — Clinton County legislators ar e considering a policy that, if appr oved, would ban smoking and the use of tobacco products on the majority of county pr operties. The exceptions would be the Clinton County Fairgrounds, Clinton Community College, and the Clinton County Landfill, which would be subject to their own policies, if they so choose.

The issue was r ecently debated by legislators who ar e examining changing the count’s existing policy which only r equires those who smoke to r emain at least 40 feet fro m county building when doing so.

The legislatur e is in the pr ocess of fine-tuning the pr oposed policy with the help of Kar en Der usha, a senior public educator with the Adirondack Tobacco Fr ee Network, and Deputy County Administrator Rodney Brown.

County eyes ways to help flooded properties

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN — For the third time, Essex County will look to change the assessed value for pr operties that wer e affected by the r ecent rains and flooding.

Charli Lewis, Essex County Real Property Tax Service Director, addr essed the members of the Board of Supervisors during the May 31 W ays and Means Committee meeting about what would be r equired in or der to lower assessments for those affected by the storms.

“As you look at these Relief Acts that happened in 2005 and 2007, the county could opt into the pr ogram if at least one municipal corporation met the r equirements,” Lewis said. “They define that as catastr ophically

damaged property. There had to be ten (properties) and they had to be damaged over 50 percent of their assessed value.”

Lewis also said that at pr esent, the county would need the help of state legislation in order to allow county assessors to follow through.

“Taxable status date is Mar ch 1,” Lewis said. “By law , the assessors ar e r equired to assess property as of their condition as of March 1. If ther e is a flood, a fault line, a fire, after March 1, it is unlawful to change the assessment until the following Mar ch 1.”

Several supervisors spoke up in favor of a r esolution asking state senator Betty Little and state Assemblywoman Teresa Sayward to introduce legislation that would allow the county to offer assessment reductions.

“We do have two homes that are greatly affected by the slide in Keene Valley and we have two others that are creeping closer to them,” Keene Supervisor William Fer ebee said. “Charli did come over and addr essed our Assessor and our Boar d of Assessment Review to make her statement clear to those guys as constituents come forward looking for assistance in their assessments.”

“I spoke to Sen. Little on this last week to see if there was any kind of possibility that legislation could be intr oduced to authorize the county’s to enact this,” Moriah supervisor Thomas Scozzafava said. “I mean we have I think two possibly thr ee homes in the town of Moriah that I am certain this has reduced their assessed value by more than 50 percent.”

Scozzafava added that he would be concerned if the legislation did not make it thr ough the state.

“The unfortunate part of this is that if we don’t have this legislation and the county doesn’t enact this, what is going on in your community I am sur e and the town of Keene and other communities, that the owners of these property’s are going to pay the full shot on their school — correct? And they ar e going to pay the full shot on their land in January with no relief,” he said.

“I am hopeful that (Little) will ask for this legislation. I know that thr oughout her entir e Senate district there is a lot of catastrophic losses on personal property so I am hopeful that it will go through.”

Susan Neal, artistic dir ector of Pendragon

states: “For years, Pendragon has wanted to bring ‘To Kill a Mockingbir d’ to audiences across the r egion. Harper Lee’s r emarkable book is a coming of age story set in a volatile southern town during the 1930s. Lee pits courage and compassion against intolerance and inequity. An American classic, the story resonates across a broad spectrum of ages. We are honored by the NEA’s support.”

Pendragon will open the pr oduction on Nov. 10, and present 10 performances at their home base theater in Saranac Lake. The pr oduction will then be available for a tour throughout the region.

Live performances and follow up classroom experiences ar e a gr eat way to expand and amplify the existing curriculum. Many schools have students read the play and base some unit of study around that year’s choice.

The NEA grant will help keep costs to the schools down by partially subsidizing some of their ticket prices. People or organizations interested in pr esenting the pr oduction, or who would like mor e information about the production locations should contact Pendragon at 891-1854 or via email pdragon@northnet.org.

Ecstasy smuggling attempt thwarted Drugs worth $1.4 million intercepted at border

In his second outing against them in the Class D championship game June 2, Bissonette again walked four Westport/Keene batters — over seven innings of championship work.

Bissonette surrendered only two hits and one unearned run while striking out nine to lead the Eagles to their first sectional baseball title in school history.

“I wanted to come out, throw my hardest, work ahead in the count and stay positive,” Bissonette said. “I wanted to play as hard as I could. I was amped up for this game and wanted to be better than I was the last time I faced these guys.”

“I was proud of Kyle for him to come back and throw the way that he did,” Chazy head coach Brian Norcross said.”

The top of the Eagles’ lineup did most of the damage against the Beagles, with Ricky Osier scoring two runs, Kaleb Snide scoring twice and driving in the opening run of the game on a first inning double, and John T r egan driving in the final r un of the game on a single in the third inning.

“He (Beagles pitcher Sam Earl) threw me a curve ball and I jumped on it late and it was the perfect hit to allow Ricky to score,” Snide said about his double. “W inning a sectional title in baseball is something that has never been done her e, and it is gr eat to be part of the team that finally accomplished that goal.”

“I am so proud of these 13 kids,” Norc ross

“It was just one of those games,” W estport/Keene co-head coach Don Markwica said after the game. “we came out a little tight and once we got settled in, we needed the bats to heat up and it never happened.”

David Quaglietta broke up Bissonette’s nohit bid with one out in the fifth inning with a single that as just out of the reach of Osier at second base. James Bell, who had reached twice on err ors, had the Beagles other hit on a sharp line drive down the left field line in the sixth.

The Beagles put six runners into scoring position, scoring one (Bell) on a balk call in the fourth inning. The team Chazy pitcher Kyle Bissonette and catcher Kyle McCarthy celebrate after the was 0-for -8 with four final out of the Section VII/Class D finals.
