Giant pink ribbon raises awareness of breast cancer.

jeremiah@denpubs.com PERU — Eileen Gardner is an aspiring writer. So, when she decided to learn more about breaking into the world of publishing, she went to a source she had heard a lot about — Publishers Weekly.

It turned out, that by simply following the weekly trade news magazine on Twitter, that Publishers Weekly reached out to her.

Why? Gardner was contacted and notified she was the business’ 200,000th Twitter follower.

“It was exciting,” said Gardner. “I started writing about two years ago and I wanted to learn more about publishing, so I went on

Rescue horse gets new owner, lease on life

MORRISONVILLE — When Karen Newton took in a malnourished female thoroughbred named Taylor, she hoped to nurse her back to good health and one day find her a new, caring owner. Now, she believes she has done just that.

Newton, owner of Tamarack Stables, brought Taylor in earlier this year after her former owners surrendered her, knowing they could not provide her proper care. Since she began caring for her in March, Newton has brought Taylor back from an unhealthy 974 pounds

to well over 1,100 pounds.

“She’s pretty much up to her normal weight now,” said Newton. “Her ribs aren’t showing anymore and her hip bones aren’t sticking out. It’s awesome to see what a difference there is in her.”

The process to help Taylor gain weight was a lengthy one, said Newton, which involved providing her with a proper diet and regular exercise.

“We had to be careful she didn’t gain too much weight too fast,” she said.

“It’s been an uphill battle, but she’s doing well.”

The whole time Taylor was under Newton’s care, one of Newton’s patrons,

‘Human pink ribbon’ brings people together for cause

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

Approximately 150 people joined together on the grounds of CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh to form a giant human ribbon Oct. 29. The people were motivated to dress in pink in honor of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

PLATTSBURGH — Wearing a pink ribbon to raise awareness of breast cancer is one thing, but gathering more than a hundred people together to form one giant human pink ribbon? That’s new here.

Approximately 150 people clad in pink shirts, hats, scarves and jackets gathered together on the grounds of CVPH Medical Center Oct. 29 as the Clinton County Cancer Services Program promoted October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Organizers Didi Remchuk and Lisa Turner, who serve as a data and case manager and senior public health educator for the program, respectively, said the event was one that turned several heads.

“We decided to do something new and creative in the community to raise awareness about breast cancer and breast cancer screenings in general,” said Turner.

“We were looking for a different way to get people involved and make them aware and we knew this had never been done in Plattsburgh before,” added Remchuk.

The response from those visiting the hospital campus and the amount of people who turned out decked out in pink from head to toe was heartwarming on an otherwise chilly Saturday morning, said Remchuk.

“I’m thrilled with the turnout,” said Remchuk. “I thought the turnout was great for the first time.”

“Even if we only got 20 women to see this and get the message to them to go get their annual mammogram, it’s worth all the time we put into this event,” said Turner.

Rambach’s Bakery even donated 300 pink frosted cupcakes toward the event, with bakers Kristof Hertel and David Allen handing them out one by one.

“We really appreciated that,” said Remchuk.

Besides walking away with a cupcake, Remchuk and Turner wanted people to walk away with one important message.

“If you ignore cancer, it’s not going to go away,” said Remchuk. “Early detection is your best chance to beat it.”

The Clinton County Cancer Services Program offers free cancer screenings for women over the age of 40 who don’t have health insurance. For more information, call 562-7112.

NCAVI welcomes new orientation and mobility specialist Students in four-county region could benefit from services, says Abair

By Jeremiah S. Papineau jeremiah@denpubs.com

PLATTSBURGH — The North Country Association for the Visually Impaired has a new resource in schools for students who are visually-challenged.

Donna M. Abair, executive director of NCAVI, said the nonprofit organization has welcomed Anne Wittmann, the newest member to its staff. Through NCAVI, Wittmann, provides orientation and mobility services to blind, legally-blind and visually-impaired children in grades pre-kindergarten through 12 in Clinton, Essex, Franklin and St. Lawrence counties. “[Wittmann’s] role in the schools is to assess each individual child’s needs, based on their vision and perhaps other impairments,” said Abair, “and recommend what orientation and mobility instruction will best help the student meet their needs to be independent and safe in their school and community environment.”

Orientation and mobility professionals, explained Abair, help the visually-impaired learn to navigate safely and comfortably in various environments and, in Wittmann’s case, in a school setting.

“Services are extremely vital in making sure children are safe in their different environments, school, community, home,” said Abair. “These services make children independent in these respective areas, therefore, making them much more active as they grow up and become con-

‘Taste of the North Country’ this Wednesday PLATTSBURGH — Taste of the North Country — the North Country Chamber of Commerce’s annual event which centers around displays and samples from local restaurants and vendors — will return to the Plattsburgh State Field House on Rugar Street Wednesday, Nov. 9.

The event combines food

and beverage tasting experience with an auction. The auction preview begins at 5 p.m, followed by the silent auction and tasting from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Auctioneer Steve Martin and MC Matt Boire will cap off the evening with the live auction at 7 p.m.

Attendees can sample specialties from area restau-

rants and vendors, while they bid on hundreds of auctions items. To see a complete list of vendors and auction items, visit www.northcountrychamber.com Tickets are $18 per person. Those under 21 must be accompanied by an adult. To purchase tickets call 5631000 or go to www.northcountrychamber.com.

tributing members of society.”

The services Wittmann provides to students are free of charge when provided through a school district, said Abair, and are available by requesting them through their child’s school. Students have a right to services, she added, and parents may request them on their child’s individual education plan, also known as an IEP. “Parents and teachers need to be strong advocates for making sure their children get these services,” said Abair, adding a simple assessment will first be done to evaluate a student’s orientation and mobility needs.

Having Wittmann on staff as an orientation and mobility specialist is a major asset to NCAVI, said Abair.

“The North Country has been without an orientation and mobility instructor for a long time,” said Abair. “By hiring Anne and offering these services to children in our community, we are filling a need that fosters community intervention and personal independence for these children. This allows them to continue on to college and into professional careers.”

Wittmann said she is proud to be part of the NCAVI staff, and encourages parents to access her services if they feel their child is in need of orientation and mobility assistance.

“It is very satisfying to be able to provide skills to students that aide in their independence, watch them grow with new found confidence and see how these services impact the students’ future and future opportunities,” said Wittmann.

For more information, contact NCAVI at 562-2330 or by e-mail at ncavi2001@yahoo.com. The NCAVI office is located at 22 U.S. Oval, Suite B-15.

BEEKMANTOWN VOTERS Town Board Meeting 6-18-2007

By Now you have had a chance to hear and read all the B.S. about our two Council persons running for re-election.

Here are some facts you should know. On June 18th, 2007, I tried to get the Town Board to go for a non-binding referendum. On the Windmill issue.

Twice Mrs. Harden made statements to the effect that the people were not educated enough to vote on this subject.

The only people educated enough on this subject are members of the West Beekmantown Neighborhood Association.

Board of Elections I also want the Voters to know that the last time Mrs. Harden ran for the Council post, that members of the West Beekmantown Association, financed most of her campaign (This can be verified at the Board of Elections).

Mrs. Harden and her vote is owned by the West Beekmantown Association.

Copy of Petition at Town Hall Sydney Sue Harrant signed a petition to outlaw double wide manufactured homes in 90% of our town. I guess us poor folks were supposed to live by the railroad tracks and in the cedar swamps. As Mr. Walter said in his letter, her role is to support the people she serves (The West Beekmantown Neighborhood Association).

Denton Publications Editorial

Exercise your right I to vote - our future depends on it W

e’ve all heard the mantra about how we should exercise our duty to vote.

It’s repeated often, particularly as fall descends and election signs start cropping up alongside area roadways.

Although this year ’s election focuses on candidates for county or community posts rather than high-profile state or national races, local government is where the citizenry can exert the greatest influence — and change in government most often occurs from the ground up.

But such clout exists only in the hands of those that turn out and cast their ballots.

County and town supervisors craft budgets, devise laws, and craft policy that sets the course of our government as well as the day-to-day delivery of public services — and determines the very nature of our communities in the future.

And this year, participation in this ultimate privilege of democracy is more important than ever.

Considering the pressing issues that face our area towns and counties, it is indeed vitally important for all eligible citizens to cast their vote and help set the course of our local governments.

Each municipality in the Adirondacks is struggling with budgetary problems — deciding how to balance soaring operational expenses despite slashed state aid. They are grappling with new expensive mandates and soaring employee health care and retirement costs in a time that the public is struggling financially.

In addition, the core areas of the Adirondacks have been losing population at an alarming rate — primarily due to lack of private-sector job op-

portunities at salaries that can even approach metropolitan areas.

Our area families have become more and more dependent on income from public-sector jobs — which in turn hike local taxes, shackling economic growth.

And while the world has moved fast into an era when high-speed broadband interconnectivity is vital for prosperity, areas of the Adirondack region now have no such access.

Our communities and counties throughout the region need the most savvy, informed leaders at the helm — to collaborate on crafting sound public policy, influence state and federal officials to make needed changes, and make hard decisions on the quality and level of services government will be providing.

Hopefully you’ve studied the issues and evaluated the candidates — examining campaign flyers, attending the various Meet the Candidates events, and scrutinizing the politicians’ qualifications and abilities.

The more research, the better.

Because throughout the Adirondacks, we need leaders who cannot only devise clever sound bites or utter political jargon, but can help seek out new, innovative solutions to our pressing issues.

Cast a vote this Tuesday — an informed vote.

Our future depends on it.

Gary VanCour Kit Booth Battle of Plattsburgh Commemoration

Battle of Plattsburgh a success The tremendous success of the 14th-annual Battle of Plattsburgh Commemoration is due to the work of 30 or so active committee volunteers who work tirelessly for an entire year planning the week’s activities.

Another 600-plus volunteers make up the workforce needed for memorial ceremonies; contests and races; kids games, parade and muster; re-enactments; tavern wenches and cook staff; the Macomb Ball; 1814 encampment; organizing the lectures and concert series; button selling and distribution; parade organization; opening historic buildings and producing the 62-page magazine.

Under the new management team of Alice Church and Carol Giroux, the Israel Green Tavern continued to be one of the most popular spots in town. Thanks to Trinity Episcopal Church for hosting the tavern and several concerts.

Also new this year was Linda Ward’s Children’s Old-Time Village Fair on Sunday. It succeeded in drawing hundreds of families to the area surrounding the Macdonough Monument, where children and adults had fun learning about life as it was 200 years ago.

Constraints of space do not permit naming all the dedicated individuals who continue to work behind the scenes, doing incredible jobs year after year organizing this ever-growing and complex event. It is a privilege to work with this committee of doers.

We want to thank our sponsors and advertisers for their contributions, which made up more than half of our budget.

We also thank the media for their continued support in print and on air.

Motels gave special rates, and local businesses contributed generously. Services were provided by the City of Plattsburgh

Market Basket prices continue to increase

T

he cost of the Market Basket went up from $101.48 in August to $105.53 in September. The price of the Market Basket increased 12 percent from a year ago, from $93.96 in 2010 to $105.53 in 2011. This is a sizable increase, undoubtedly noticed by most consumers.

For the month, products decreasing in price included American cheese slices, down 28 percent, and lettuce, down 14 percent. Also recorded were: Del Monte fruit cocktail, down 10 percent; frozen green beans, down, down 6 percent; Del Monte peas, down 4 percent; store-brand cola, down 4 percent; bottom round roast, down 4 percent; and bananas, down 3 percent.

In the meat category, boneless sirloin steak was up 48 percent, frying chickens were up 32 percent, and boneless pork chops increased by 13 percent over August.

The meat category as a whole was up 15 percent over 2010, and the recent steep increases in meat prices have been attributed to higher feed and fuel prices, severe drought and flooding, and higher foreign demand for meat products. An alternative source of protein, canned Starkist tuna, also rose by 11 percent over the previous month.

The price of sugar increased 7 percent over the previous month and 22 percent over the past year. Flour also saw a 4 percent increase over the month and a 7 percent increase over the previous year.

month, however, it saw a 17 percent increase from 2010.

Ice cream experienced a significant 37 percent increase over the previous month and 56 percent increase over the previous year. This large price increase stems from increases in most of the ingredients of ice cream, such as sugar and dairy products. Blue Bonnet margarine also increased by 13 percent over the previous month and 46 percent over a year ago.

Over the past year, coffee and tea prices have both increased — 36 percent and 16 percent, respectively — although coffee did not increase over the previous month while tea increased 11 percent.

Seasonal Reminders

Apple picking began about a week later than usual this year, and the North Country crop has been coming in nicely. One of the advantages of living in the North Country is the accessibility of local orchards and the opportunity for family fun picking apples and pumpkins.

Other products coming into peak season include grapes, cranberries, celery, lettuce, potatoes, radishes, spinach, turnips, sweet potatoes, and winter squash.

The Market Basket Report is a twice monthly survey of 41 food items commonly purchased by consumers. Four major supermarkets in the Plattsburgh area are included in this survey. Grocery data is compiled and reported as a community service by the School of Business and Economics Department of Marketing and Entrepreneurship at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh.

Impacts of market tobacco Tobacco use is the number ONE cause of PREVENTABLE death in the United States and around the world.

According to the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids, more than 2.8 millions kids under the age of 18 are current tobacco users. Adolescents are more susceptible to cigarette marketing than adults. 81.3 percent of youth smokers (12-17) prefer Marlboro, Camel, and Newport, three heavily advertised brands. A Journal of the National Caner Institute study found that teens were more likely to be influenced to smoke by cigarette marketing than by peer pressure.

Nearly one-third of all youth smokers will inevitably due prematurely from smoking-caused disease. In the United States, tobacco use is estimated to kill about 443,000 people per year which is more than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents, illegal drugs, murders, suicides and fires combined.

We need to address the impact tobacco marketing has on our youth and preventing them from becoming another generation of smokers. and www.tobaccofreenys.com Visit www.tobaccofreekids.org for more information.

What’s for breakfast?

O

h yes, it’s that time of year. The holidays are coming and you’re surrounded by sweets craving that piece of pumpkin pie. Well, save it for Thanksgiving Day and try this recipe for Pumpkin Oatmeal instead. It’s a great way to start your day with complex carbs from whole grains, and protein from eggs. Pumpkin is a good source of Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol), thiamin, niacin, Vitamin B6, folate, iron, magnesium and phosphorus, and a very good source of dietary fiber, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, riboflavin, potassium, copper and manganese. So, not only is this meal packed with nutrients, this healthy breakfast will feel like a treat on a cold fall morning.

Pumpkin Oatmeal

• 1 cup dry oats • 1/2 cup egg whites • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix) • Pumpkin pie spice to taste • Pinch of sea salt Cook oatmeal on stove top

“I believe that if you are employed by the county, you should not be selling to them .. You have to be easily accessible so your voters can communicate their concerns and problems at meetings when and where you are supposed to be. A lack of attendance shows a lack of respect and concern for them ... As a self-employed businessman, I feel we need business-oriented people, not politicians leading our country.”

Willard J. Todd

Sears

Town Clerk/Tax Collector

“The biggest issue facing Clinton County is continuing to provide for our citizens, and doing so with the best interest of the taxpayer in mind. This dynamic has obviously changed as County Government is now obligated to work within a statutory tax cap. I will therefore work to meet the guidelines of this statute. In so doing, however, I will also fight to reduce the state mandates, including the Medicaid burden, placed upon us by the State of New York.”

Area 5

Donna M. Hamel (R, I, C)

Peter F. Keenan (D, WF)

“It has been my pleasure to have served as your Town Clerk since 1996, a position that I am honored to hold.

That is one of the best advantages of living in a small community.”

I have had experience with large budgets at the Dannemora Federal Credit Union as a Board member and with the Peru Town Court as the Town Justice ... The further development of the Plattsburgh Airport is a primary concern as well as keeping the County budget within the 2 percent tax cap, if possible ... I would investigate these issues as completely as possible to determine all available solutions.”

Rene M. Hugus (D) “The Town of Schuyler Falls has two candidates this election for Town Clerk/Tax collector.

Keenan

Sherman J. Hamel (R, C, I) “Unfunded mandates that are placed on the local governments by the State have gone above and beyond what the tax payers can afford ... I will review all aspects of County government and listen to the concerns of the residents prior to making any rash decisions to cut or increase spending before fully understanding the long term impact on the taxpayers.”

Hamel

Area 8 Sally Sears-Mack (D, WF) “Preserving and improving the economic stability of this beautiful and environmentally precious area is our most basic issue.

The Legislature has over time demonstrated that its members are aware of and working together to address this issue, and we must continue to do as much as possible to attract and retain new sustainable industry through cooperation with economic development organizations already in place.”

“We need to create and maintain jobs in this county. This will increase the county tax revenue without raising the tax rate. It is imperative that no more local prisons close, such as Altona Correctional Facility, and it is of great importance that we attract new businesses to the area to provide employment for the youth. We can attract businesses by having a competitive tax rate, making high speed internet available countywide and making cellular phone service more accessible.”

George H. Seymour “[I have] thirty-five years experience working with and for the people of the town of Schuyler Falls. Your support on Election Day would be greatly appreciated.”

CLINTON COUNTY LEGISLATURE

Dame

“I believe that the problems facing Clinton County are ones that can be addressed and overcome successfully with the right candidate-and I believe I am that candidate. The property tax cap was passed in NY State because taxpayers are fed up. I respect that response from the taxpayers and will take the tax cap as a welcome challenge that can be achieved. Frivolous spending has got to stop.”

James P. Carlin (C) “We need more from our candidates and we certainly need more from those we elect to represent us. We must work together to reshape our government and make it more efficient, responsive and representative. We must work together to find long term solutions that will stabilize and grow our tax base. We need to work together to make Clinton County, not only an affordable place to live, but also a livable place with a wonderful quality of life for all of our residents.”

Twitter because that’s where a lot of writers and publishing types seem to hang out.”

When she clicked the button to follow Publishers Weekly, it was a connection that landed her recognition of the company reaching an on-line milestone and a spotlight on her own quest to become a published author. “[Publishers Weekly] contacted me and asked me if I’d be interested in writing a guest blog for them,” said Gardner, “which was very exciting. So, I wrote about breaking into the publishing world.”

In her guest column, which can be found on-line at www.publishersweekly.com, Gardner talks about the likelihood an author would get published and the importance of getting one’s name out in front of those with the power to publish your work.

“I could’ve blogged about anything, but I though this would make sense,” said Gardner. “I know there are others who don’t really know that much about the publishing side of things.”

Gardner said she hoped to be able to

educate others about things they need to think about during the publishing process like finding an agent and even preparing one’s self for rejection.

“The whole process can be a little bit dizzying,” said Gardner. “You don’t realize how much is involved with it.”

One thing Gardner has learned is that the Internet is a way to make con-

nections and there’s no more evidence of that than her connection to Publishers Weekly, she said.

“It was an honor to be in Publishers Weekly,” said Gardner, adding she has placed even more value on having a Twitter account these days. “Twitter has become really big to a lot of aspiring writers.”

Rouses Point artists to be featured in new exhibit PERU — Peru Free Library, 3024 State Route 22, will host a reception for "Duet," a new exhibition of photography by Frank Hochreiter and paintings by Carol Hochreiter, next Friday, Nov. 11.

The reception — which will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., will be the first time Frank Hochreiter has shown a large body of work in one space, including 17 of his recent photos. Carol Hochreiter will be showing her new work.

Frank Hochreiter developed an appreciation of the visual arts during his teaching career at the New Paltz Middle School. He found the work of his colleagues in the art department there intriguing and enjoyed the extremely diverse and thought-provoking art exhibits at the State University of New York at New Paltz. His frequent visits to art museums and galleries were influential in inspiring him. His interest in taking photos developed during family vacations where the goal was to create a record of the many sights he had always hoped to see as a result of his interest in the social sciences.

After retiring from 33 years of teaching, he continued to take photos on family outings and was able to increase the

number of his photos of nature during outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, and snowshoeing. Many of his photos reflect both the natural and human influence on our environment.

Carol Hochreiter was accepted with a major in art at SUNY New Paltz. Her mother liked neither her art major nor her boyfriend. At the end of freshman year, she changed her major to English. Since she began painting, Carol Hochreiter has been accepted three times for participation in the juried show at Lake Placid Center for the Arts. Her work has been shown at the NCCCA in both member and juried shows, at the HaleWalter Gallery, the Ianelli Gallery, and the textile exhibits at the Plattsburgh Public Library, at Lake Forest, and at the Keeseville Public Library. She has been married to Frank Hochreiter for 43 years.

The show will be on exhibit until Wednesday, Nov. 30, during regular library hours. The library is open 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Tuesday through Thursday; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday; and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.

Peru and Beekmantown to decide Class B football championship

By Keith Lobdell keith@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH — The Class B football semifinal round gave a workout to scoreboards, with 93 points scored in the two games.

However, there was only seven points scored by the two teams that saw their seasons end Oct. 29.

The top-seeded Peru Indians scored a 527 victory over Gouverneur, while the second-seeded Eagles posted a 34-0 shutout victory against the Saranac Chiefs.

The Indians scored 45 points in the first half, with Shawn Hendrix scoring three times on the ground and rushing for 138 yards. Alex Cederstrom added two scores and 48 yards rushing, while Taylor Rock was 69 passing yards, including a 20-yard scoring strike to Zane Bazzano.

The Eagles, meanwhile, made a defensive statement in their game against the Chiefs, holding quarterback Ben Weightman to 16 yards rushing and 73 passing yards on 6-fo15 passing, along with four interceptions.

“We played great defensively,” Eagles head coach Jamie Lozier said. “We needed to be consistent on defense and exploit what was there for us offensively.”

Eagles quarter- and cornerback Carter Frechette embodied both of those goals, as he finished with 170 yards and three touchdowns on 12-of-18 passing, ran for 44 yards and another score while recovering a fumble and getting one of the four interceptions.

“The defense was flying around to the ball,” Frechette said.

Frechette connected on all three touchdown passes with Luke Weaver, who finished with 62 receiving yards.

“He is an unbelievable quarterback,” Weaver said about Frechette. “He puts the ball where it needs to be every time.”

“Our passing game is number one when you have Carter, Luke and Devon (Backes, who caught a 60-yard pass to set up the Eagles opening score) rolling,” Lozier said.The

Moriah Vikings are the three-time defending Section VII/Class D champions, and on Oct. 28, they proved that the only way to be the champ is to beat them.

The Vikings set up another finals clash with rival Ticonderoga as Tom Ida opened the game with an 81-yard kickoff return and Jessup Calkins had a 67-yard kickoff return and a pair of touchdowns to lead their team past the second-seeded Tupper Lake Lumberjacks, 28-20.

Special teams were key in the game, as the Ida kick return and a 50-yard punt return that deflected off a Moriah player and into the hands of Lumberjack Garrett Planty were the only scores of the first half.

The Lumberjacks also missed on two of three two-point conversion attempts, including on following a 30-yard score by Tim Ropas (12 carries, 81 yards) late in the fourth quarter. Ropas got the ball on the conversion attempt but was stopped short of the goal line, leaving the score at 21-20 in favor of the Vikings.

The Lumberjacks then attempted an onside kick, which deflected off a Tupper Lake

player before going 10 yards, giving the ball to Moriah. Ida then scored on a 33-yard run to give the Vikings a 28-20 lead.

On the ensuing drive, the Vikings capped the game with a sack and forced fumble by Justin Cutting (who also recovered a fumble as the halftime horn sounded), and tackles for losses on pass plays by Trevor Cheney (14-yard loss) and Skyler Graham (two-yard loss).

“I wasn’t surprised how physical they were tonight — I was probably more surprised the first time we played the, with some of the things that we were able to do then,” Lumberjacks head coach Dennis Klossner said. “I felt that we got everything that we could out of our kids tonight. It’s tough to come back like they had to every time, especially after you give up a kickoff return. They kept their heads up and kept playing.”

For the Vikings, Landon Cross, who returned to the quarterback position to replace an injured Cole Gaddor, ran for 48 yards and one touchdown while completing one of two passes for 23 yards to Travis Nephew. Taylor

Whalen added 29 yards, and Cheney added 22 yards as well as 1.5 tackles for loss and half of a sack.

Carlo Calabrese had 3.5 sacks and a forced fumble, as the Vikings caused the Lumberjacks to run 20 plays that resulted in no gain or negative yardage, while the Vikings only had four.

Jordan Garrow finished with 90 yards on 17 carries, while Stone Keniston added 29 yards. Mitch Keniston had 46 yards receiving on four catches.

The Vikings (2-7) will face the Sentinels in the Class D finals next Friday, while the Lumberjacks finish the season at 6-3.

Also in sectional football play, the AuSable Valley Patriots will return to the Section VII/Class C finals as they scored a 17-14 win over Ogdensburg in the semifinal round in Clintonville Oct. 28.

Trailing 7-0 at halftime, the Patriots (3-6) scored 14 unanswered points in the third quarter against Ogdensburg as Austin House ran for a five-yard score and then connected with Kyle Prinsen on an 18-yard score.

After Ogdensburg tied the game in the fourth, Connor Manning connected on a 20yard field goal with 3:52 remaining and the Patriots were able to stop Ogdensburg on a late fourth-and-one play to secure the win.

House finished with 62 yards rushing and 63 yards on 5-of-12 passing, while Kodie Simpson completed his lone pass for 69 yards. Prinsen had 103 yards receiving on three catches, while Manning had 32 receiving yards and the game-winning kick and an interception on Defense. Simpson (interception) and Evan Cobb (fumble recovery) also forced turnovers.

In the other semifinal in Class C, the Saranac Lake Red Storm punched their ticket to the sectional finals against the AuSable Valley Patriots with a 49-22 victory over Canton.

Matt Phelan finished 9-of-14 passing for 144 yards and three touchdowns, while the team had a balanced rushing and receiving attack to gain the victory.

Section VII soccer season coming down to six championship games

By Keith Lobdell

keith@denpubs.com LEWIS — The third-seeded Elizabethtown-Lewis Lions scored an 8-0 win against the Wells Indians in the opening round of the Section VII/Class D boys soccer tournament, setting up the third meeting of the season between them and second-seeded Chazy Eagles, who beat their namesakes from Westport by an 11-0 score.

For the Lions, Hunter Mowery scored two goals and directed a third toward net on an indirect kick that resulted in a Wells own goal, along with assisting on two spectacular goals scored by Connor Apthorp.

“The first one, I was just trying to get a foot on it,” Apthorp said.

“On the second one, I was at the right place at the right time. Our teams prepared well for this game and we came out to win and did just that.”

“We came out excited and ready to go,” Lions head coach Paul Buehler said. “They didn’t take this game lightly and we executed well.”

Brody Hooper, Tyler White and Patrick Philips also scored for the Lions.

For Chazy, Josh Barriere, Brandon Laurin, Nolan Rogers and Hunter Dominy all scored two goals in the 11-0 victory over Westport, giving the defending state champions a 32-0 edge in goals over three contests.

In the top half of the bracket, the Willsboro Warriors will not be playing Division III champion Schroon Lake, as they were ousted by the fifth-seeded Minerva/Newcomb by a 4-3 score.

Class D girls The Westport varsity girls soccer team had home-field advantage for

the second time against Keene, and were able to score a win in a penalty kick shootout in the opening round of the Section VII/Class D tournament Oct. 27.

The third-seeded Eagles (11-2-0) scored in the first minute of the game, as Delany Sears tallied her ninth goal of the season on the first assist of the season for Emily Rascoe.

In the 67th minute, Emma Gothner was able to trap a deflection off a Westport defender and put the ball past Eagles goalie Karlee McGee to score the equalizer for the Beavers (5-10-1), and the two teams remained scoreless throughout the final 13 minutes of regulation and the 30 minutes of overtime.

The Eagles faced the secondseeded Elizabethtown-Lewis Lady Lions (11-6-0), who got a goal in the 16th minute by Kylee Cassavaugh (12th) on an assist from Emily Morris (10th) for a 1-0 win over the Indian Lake/Long Lake Lady Orange. Jennifer McGinn made five saves for the Lions in the victory.

On the other half of the Class D bracket, the Chazy Lady Eagles (16-1-0) scored a 5-0 victory against the Willsboro Lady Warriors (3-13-1).

Megan Reynolds opened the scoring on a penalty kick in the 28th minute and scored again in the 43rd minute (Caitlyn LaPier assist), while Hannah Laurin scored in the 36th minute (Kirsten Doran), Amanda Kempainen scored in the 40th and LaPier scored in the 62nd minute (Rachel Pombio).

LaPier is the leading scorer alive in Section VII girls, adding to her totals with her 14th goal and 21st assist.

Stephanie Blanchard had 18 saves for the Warriors, while Katharine Tooke made just one save in picking up her 14th shutout of the season.

In the semifinals, the Eagles will face a Wells team that scored a 1-0 win over Minerva/Newcomb.

Class C boys Haile Thompson contributed to both goals for the Lake Placid Blue Bombers as they advanced past Seton Catholic and into the Class C final against Northern Adirondack.

Thompson assisted on the opening goal of the game, scored by Keegan Barney, to give the Blue Bombers (5-8-0) a 1-0 lead. Thompson then scored in the 43rd minute to give the Bombers a 2-0 lead.

Adam Tedford scored his 15th goal of the season in the 61st minute to cut the lead in half, but the Knights (3-12-0) were unable to rally.

J.P. Morrison made 11 saves for the win.

Class C girls The first round of the Section VII/Class C playoffs also brought the first penalty kick shootout of the season, as the Lake Placid Lady Blue Bombers and Moriah Lady Vikings went 110 minutes without scoring a goal.

Blue Bombers Carrissa Kennedy and goalie Liz Leff scored the two markers in the shootout as Lake Placid (10-4-2) advanced 2-1 on kicks to the Class C semifinals Oct. 26.

Leff recorded four saves in the contest in earning her eighth shutout of the year and bringing her saves total to 101, along with scoring a decisive kick in the fivevs.-five shootout.

The Blue Bombers will face the Seton Catholic Lady Knights in the Class C finals, as Paige Spittler scored her 12th goal of the season in the 27th minute in a 1-0 win against the Northern Adirondack Lady Bobcats.

Shannon Egan assisted on the

goal, while Shannon Olsen made 10 saves in picking up her third shutout of the season for the Knights (8-9-0).

Jesslin Golovach made 11 saves for the Bobcats, finishing the year with 166 saves and five shutouts.

The Bobcats finished the 2011 regular season with a record of 7-10-0.

The Section VII/Class C championship game will be played on Thursday, Nov. 3, at 5 p.m. between top-seeded Lake Placid and second-seeded Seton Catholic at AuSable Valley High School.

Class B boys The fourth-seeded Peru Indians scored in the first minute of the second 10-minute overtime period as they defeated the fifth-seeded Saranac Chiefs, 2-1.

Justin Wiley scored the eventual golden goal for the Indians (8-7-1) in the 91st minute assisted by Ian Spear. The Indians had a 1-0 lead in the third minute of the game thanks to a William Thew goal, but Kyle Erikson scored the equalizer for the Chiefs (6-9-2) in the 68th minute off a Brandon Terry assist.

The Indians will play the Plattsburgh High Hornets (14-0-1) in the semifinals.

In the other half of the Bracket, the Beekmantown Eagles and Northeastern Clinton Cougars cruised into the semifinals.

The second-seeded Cougars (111-2) earned a 7-0 win against the AuSable Valley Patriots (0-15-0).

Kyle McCarthy netted three goals for the Cougars, while Avery Trombley, Liam McDonough, Bo LeDuc and Austin Tetreault each scored once.

The third-seeded Eagles (10-5-0) scored a 6-0 win against the Saranac Lake Red Storm (2-11-0) as Zach Towle scored a pair of goals and Zach Brockway, MacCullen Cope, Brenden Carnright and

Adam Goldfarb each scored once.

Chris McIlroy made six saves for the shutout.

Class B girls

The AuSable Valley Lady Patriots gave it their best shot of the season, and were able to get the Plattsburgh High Lady Hornets into overtime.

However, the Hornets were able to take advantage of strong goalkeeping from Karlie Neale and two makes in the penalty shootout to score a win over the third-seeded Patriots and advance to the Section VII Class B final Nov. 4.

Brooke Knight opened the scoring in the 23rd minute to give the Hornets a 1-0 lead. Megan Colby then scored in the 25th and 45th minutes to give the Patriots a 2-1 lead before Knight hooked up with Marle Curle to equalize the game in the 64th minute, a score which would not change again.

Neale had six saves for the Hornets, while Taylor Saltus had seven in the loss for the Patriots.

The Hornets will face the top seed in Class B, as the Beekmantown Lady Eagles scored a 4-0 win over the Peru Lady Indians, two teams who tied in the last game of the regular season, spoiling the Eagles’ bid for an undefeated season.

Jess Huber scored the final three goals for the Eagles in the 32nd, 39th and 69th minutes, while Kallie Villemaire scored the opening goal of the game in the third minute.

Horsing around

Children from the Child Development Center at Clinton Community College in Plattsburgh were paid a visit by “Dorothy” and “The Scarecrow” as Alexandra Barie, owner of Horse in Motion, and her father, Mark Barie, portrayed the characters from The Wizard of Oz Oct. 21. Barie and her father — seen here with Dillan Ames, 3, meeting “Wild Fuss” dressed as “The Cowardly Lion” — were dressed in costume as part of a Halloween visit to the center to educate children on horses. Horses in Motion, is a business based in Chazy which offers horseback riding lessons.

Payson said she was drawn to how calm Taylor was even after the creature

was so close to the brink of death.

“She is a beautiful, kind and happy horse, even with what she has been through, which shows how resilient she is,” said Payson.

Though Payson has taken ownership of Taylor, the now “healthy-as-a-horse” horse will remain boarded at Tamarack Stables along with many other horses Newton boards.
