April 2015 SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW Previews Of The Upcoming Sports Season For Our Northern Franklin County Schools Supplement to The Malone Telegram 2 - Malone Telegram, Thursday, April 23, 2015 Spring Sports Preview FA girls seek to keep Central streak alive JOHN GOKEY The Telegram Last year, the Franklin Academy girls varsity softball team faced seven Northern Athletic Conference Central Division opponents twice, and the Huskies won all 14 games to extend their regular-season winning streak to 28. Keeping their regular-season mark unblemished this season will be a bit more of a challenge as the lady Huskies lost seven starters – Brooke Collins, Morgan Fountain, Janelle Heden, Katie Lamica, Whitney Legacy, Emily Marshall and veteran hurler Annie Sharlow – to graduation. Fountain is playing college ball at North Country Community College, while Lamica and Sharlow are performing at SUNY Canton and Marshall is following in her two older sister’s footsteps at SUNY Plattsburgh. The FA squad does return three veterans for the 2015 season and boasts two of the more formidable hurlers in the NAC in the form of seniors Alissa McCauley and Alexa Prue. The third member returning to help the FA team vie for Central Division and Class A titles is senior Erin McDonald. The remainder of the squad will be made up of one senior, three juniors and five sophomores, which gives coach Greg Marshall a solid core for the future. Firstyear player Taylor Poirier is the fourth senior on the team this spring, while the juniors and sophomores move up to the varsity ranks from a very successful JV program. Juniors getting their first shot at the varsity level are the Collins twins, Abigail and Gabrielle, along with Brooke Monette, while Jessica Broeker, Claudia Collins, Brenna Hudson, Brooke Reville and Morgan Yando are the five sophomores who will get their first taste of varsity play. “I feel that we are very strong in pitching with Alissa and Alexa and we have two young catchers in Gabrielle and Jessica to take over behind the plate in place of Morgan (Fountain) and Janelle (Heden),” explained Marshall. “All of the sophomores are good players up from a very strong JV team.” The FA coach believes that the team will be strong again this year, but will need the younger players to step up. “The new players will have to step up, but we have great senior leaders to help guide them along,” pointed out Marshall. “We’re going to have to sort out positions and get in some outfield work – if we can ever get outside.” The lady Huskies, like most of the rest of the Section 10 teams, have been stuck inside since practice began in mid-March. Once the girls get outside, they will have one maybe two practices, then jump right into their Section 10 season. As of press time, the season opener was postponed on April 10 with the new opener taking place on April 14 – on the road in Massena, which the FA girls won 7-2. The Huskies followed that with a tight 4-3 win against OFA in their home opener on Friday. The Huskies and lady Raiders are well familiar with each other, as these are the two clubs that vie for the Section 10 Class A crown at seasons end. FA has defeated Massena the last four years and has represented Section 10 in state play in all four. And the FA girls would like to continue that trend. “In our division, OFA, Gouverneur and Massena look strong. And, of course, Massena is the one we have to beat at the end of the year for the A title,” said Marshall. “We have been 28-0 in the Central Division the over the past two years and have won four straight Class A titles against Massena. We hope to try and continue those accomplishments.” Besides the Raiders, Blue Devils and Wildcats, FA will also face the Canton Golden Bears, Salmon River Shamrocks, Potsdam Sandstoners and divisional newcomer Tupper Lake Lumberjacks, which will take the place of BrushtonMoira Panthers, who moved into the Central Division a year ago. The Panthers are back in their familiar East Division with the Tupper Lake squad taking its turn in the Central, which helps to even out the numbers of regular season games in the two divisions. Two years ago, St. Lawrence Central participated in the Central. Roster (jersey number) Seniors Alissa McCauley (6), Alexa Prue (15), Erin McDonald (10), Taylor Poirier (7).

Watching their teammate catch the foul ball are two FA seniors – winning pitcher Alissa McCauley (center) and third baseman Alexa Prue. Malone Telegram, Thursday, April 23, 2015 - 3 Spring Sports Preview SRC softball team young, but improved JOHN GOKEY The Telegram FORT COVINGTON – A good chunk of last year’s Salmon River softball team is gone. But that doesn’t mean that coach Liz Durfee won’t have experienced players on the field for the Shamrocks’ 2015 spring campaign. Returning to the SRC lineup will be the lone senior on this year’s team, Kiera Jacobs. She will be re-joined by juniors Brittany Brooks, Kera Ghostlaw and Tsiiowisonte Laffin. Also back to help the team improve on its 2014 record of 4-12 will be sophomore Jenny DeJung, who looks to get the starting job behind the plate, but has been pushed by the presence of classmate Abbie Farley. The catching duo will receive pitches from either Brooks, who saw extensive time in the circle a year ago, or freshman newcomer Lauren Martin. Durfee has tabbed Brooks and Martin as the primary hurlers for the Shamrocks this season. When not in the circle, the coach also has Brooks and Martin, along with Ghostlaw, penciled in for a defensive spot in the infield, along with newcomers Noreen Bautista and/or Tekaritha George. Jacobs, Laffin, Bautista, Farley, Alianna Hart and newcomers Katrina Oakes and Krista Walrath are all working extremely hard to nail down a starting spot in the outfield, but several of the seven could find themselves anchoring a spot in the infield as well, according to the coach. “It is going to be a team effort to improve upon last season’s 4-12 overall record,” Durfee said. “We are looking to have more of an offensive push in the Central (Division) to stay competitive with these strong teams in the league. “This is a great group of girls, on and off the field, and I look forward to working with them in all of their softball accomplishments this season,” summarized the coach. Even though the record was sub-par by the coaches’ standards, the Salmon River girls did win their first-round Class B playoff game, but eventually saw their 2014 season come to a close at the hands – and bats – of the OFA Blue Devils. Between the time that the coach sent in her preview information and now, the Shamrocks have opened up their 2015 spring season. They started the year off, record wise, the way the coach had expected with a pair of wins, but, as Durfee stated “have plenty of work to do to improve.” The SRC girls outlasted the Potsdam Sandstoners 16-11 in the home opener and followed that with a 6-0 shutout victory against visiting Tupper Lake, a newcomer to the Central Division this season. Martin picked up the season-opening win against Potsdam with Brooks spinning the shutout against the Lumberjacks. Along with Potsdam and Tupper Lake, the Shamrocks will face traditional Central Division foes Franklin Academy, Canton, OFA, Massena and Gouverneur, which could be a sleeper team in the battle for the division’s top spot.

No longer will the lady Shamrocks be in search of that elusive first win for the program, which is in its fifth season. They accomplished that milestone late in their 2014 campaign. The SRC girls also earned their second career victory last year and will open the 2015 season with fresh goals, such as working toward at least a .500 record, or better. And the girls are already off to a good start. Since the boys and girls lacrosse teams are among the first sports squads to actually get out and play games in Section 10’s spring sports season, the lady Shamrocks have already won their first three games of the year. Salmon River soundly defeated Heuvelton 18-4 in the season opener on April 11 at SUNY Potsdam, jumping out to a 6-0 lead and scoring 14 goals before the end of the first half. A huge gain for a team that struggled to put the ball in the net during their first two campaigns. The lady Shamrocks have followed the openinggame win with two more victories, a 20-0 thumping of the OFA Blue Devils in their home opener – another program first – and an 11-7, come-from-behind road win over archrival Massena. SRC trailed the host Red Raiders 4-2 at the half. Along with the battles the SRC girls will face against its league and nonleague opponents this spring, the girls, their coaches and families will also have a film crew following their every move throughout the season – on and off the field. The filmmakers from the New Yorkbased Flatbush Pictures are shooting a documentary about the Salmon River girls varsity lacrosse team, the community-based K-12 Akwesasne Attack lacrosse team and the Akwesasne Attack U19 travel team. Despite the added distraction of the film crew, second-year coach Terri Swamp has her charges up and running and ready to battle each and every opponent with the concept of “team” constantly on the players’ collective minds. “We play as a team, score as a team, play defense as a team and win and lose as a team,” said Swamp, who has a solid foundation to work with over the next several season. The SRC girls lacrosse team lost just two players to graduation, midfielder Jaiden Mitchell, who is attending Syracuse University, and Vanna Thompson, who is playing lacrosse for SUNY Potsdam. Returning to the lineup for Swamp are 11 veteran players and 18 rookies (see roster below), ranging from eighth grade to seniors in high school. “The rookie players joining the team this year will bring depth to all areas of the team. The veteran players will continue to demonstrate the growth the program has shown over the past year,” explained Swamp, who is a highly-regarded teacher at the Salmon River Middle School. Even with a 2-11 overall record from a season ago, the program took one of its biggest steps and barely missed out on its historic first playoff win, falling just short in the opening round of the Section 10 playoffs in overtime to Ogdensburg. “Even though the record was 2-11, the girls had a good season,” recalled Swamp, who constantly reminds anyone within earshot that it is a team concept that drives the girls toward success for the program. “The girls have been working hard preparing to be a competitive team to contend with in Section 10. The number of players on this year’s team shows that the program is growing,” continued Swamp. “As a coach, the enthusiasm and passion they bring to practice each day is rewarding.” If the team continues to shine like it did in its opener, the enthusiasm, passion and rewards will continue to build the program into a title contender in a very short amount of time – making the winless campaigns seem like a bad dream. Not a bad ending for a movie, either! Roster Seniors Sequoya Chubb, Tsiotenhariio Herne, Kahawis, Shawnee Oakes, Kiera Pyke, Kiana Thompson, Kyra Thompson, Morgan Thompson, Victoria Thompson.

In the opener against rival Chateaugay, O’Connor tossed a no hitter, then allowed just one base hit – a bloop bunt that spun away from three BMC defenders – against Colton-Pierrepont and served up just two singles in the romp over the M-W Yellowjackets. Along with St. Lawrence, Chateaugay, Madrid-Waddington and Colton-Pierrepont, the lady Panthers will battle against St. Regis Falls, Parishville-Hopkinton and Norwood-Norfolk, plus play a pair of nonleague games against the Franklin Academy Huskies. The Telegram BRUSHTON – Now is the time! If the Brushton-Moira varsity softball team is going to take its best shot at winning the Northern Athletic Conference East Division and Section 10 Class C championship, this is the season. The 2015 version of BMC softball returns its entire roster from last year save one – exchange student Mika Uehara – as the team battled in the tough Central Division a season ago. Now, the Panthers are back in the familiar surroundings of the East Division and have a legitimate chance at both postseason crowns. “We gained a whole lot of experience playing in the Central (Division) last year against some very good competition,” said BMC coach Amie Chase. “This year, we have everyone back from a team that finished 12-4, and I am expecting my seven seniors to all have a great season. If we play as we are capable of playing game-in and game-out, this could very well be a banner season for us.” Back for their final campaign at Brushton-Moira are the seven returning seniors, who have played together for the past three years, and are one of the two favorites to win the East Division, with defending champion St. Lawrence Central the other projected preseason favorite. Returning to the diamond will be Jenna Dufrane, Kenzie Traynor, Arielle “AJ” Gary, Emily O’Connor, Sienna Kenney and the DeBeer cousins, Ashley and Paige. O’Connor, a standout pitcher during the past couple of campaigns, will determine just how far the team will go this season. “I am looking for Emily to have a big season against the teams in the east. She will be the driving force of our team,” said Chase. “Jenna, AJ and Kenzie all had a really nice 2014 season, so I hope it continues into 2015.” The starting battery will consist of O’Connor in the circle and Traynor behind the plate, although coach Chase has noted that varsity newcomer Madison Rowe, a sophomore, is projected to back up O’Connor in the circle and could be the starting pitcher of the future. Dufrane looks to anchor down first base, while second-year varsity player, Ali Hooker, has the early nod at second base. John Gokey, The Telegram Brushton-Moira senior Kenzie Traynor smacks the ball deep into left field for a triple during the 10-0 win against ColtonPierrepont on April 15. Gary, who has sure hands, captains the infield from shortstop, while returning junior Melissa Cox looks to solidify the infield at third. The DeBeer girls make up two-thirds of the outfield, with Ashley in center and Paige in right. Three players, Kenney, Rowe or sophomore Raegan St. Mary will see time in left, while sophomores Amanda Burnett, Brooke Robideau, Heather Hayes and Kaylee Hutchins have been practicing at multiple positions. “I think we will be a competitive team this season,” summarized Chase. “This is a group of girls that have been playing together for the past three seasons and, for most of them, it is their final season. We should be strong both offensively and defensively and we should have solid pitching again this season. Those reasons should help us win a lot of games. The season has begun on a very positive note for the BMC girls, as the lady Panthers have won their first three games – easily. Brushton-Moira has opened the season with three straight wins; a pair of five inning, one-sided victories over Chateaugay (17-0) and Madrid-Waddington (28-0) and sandwiched in between was the team’s third shutout in Roster Seniors Jenna Dufrane, Ashley DeBeer, Kenzie Traynor, Paige DeBeer, Arielle Gary, Emily O’Connor, Sienna Kenney.

The Telegram BRUSHTON – For the first time in many a season, the Brushton-Moira varsity baseball team will have a new coach running the show. Departed is long-time hardball mentor Missy Hastings-LaVigne and entering is varsity baseball newcomer Jason LaFlesh. Hastings-LaVigne guided the BMC boys to a 15-2 record in 2014 and a Section 10 Class C title. The Panthers lost 5-0 to eventual state champ Hoosic Valley in the state quarterfinals in Amsterdam. LaFlesh is not new to the coaching ranks entirely, as he has been in charge of the Franklin Academy modified hardballers for the past eight seasons. He has also been the head man in the dugout for the last seven seasons for the Malone American Legion Post 219 travel summer baseball program. The Post 219 squad has had several members of the BMC Panthers, including departed 2014 graduates Zachary Burnett, Adam Martin and Jacob St. Mary. Current BMC junior Alex Burnett has also spent time on the legion team with the new BMC boss. The new coach will have a solid core of returning players but, like a lot of high school varsity programs, finds himself short of established pitchers for the season. Graduation took its toll with the loss of the three seniors, as all three spent time on the hill. The lone hurler with the most innings is Alex Burnett, who looks to be the ace of the staff by committee. Returning players Jon Kennedy, who normally anchors first base, Ricky Collette, Austin Tavernia and Taylor “TT” Tallman are all projected to see time on the hill, both as starters and relievers. “We have seven players throwing bullpen sessions at this point,” said LaFlesh. “We have excellent team speed and the returning players were valuable assets in helping Brushton-Moira win a Section 10 (Class C) championship last season.” Also back in the attempt to defend their crown will be junior Bryan Aubrey, who has also taken part in the bullpen sessions as both a pitcher and catcher, Cody Jesmer, who may see extensive time at shortstop and newcomers Roland Burke, Nathaniel Coates, eighth-grader Joshua Langdon and sophomores Chase Stonehouse and Kyle Wilcox. Stonehouse is working on spelling Aubrey behind the plate, while Wilcox appears to be the front-runner for the starting job at second base. The addition of Wilcox on the right side of the infield, will allow LaFlesh to move Tallman to the hot corner at third, which was mostly occupied by Zach Burnett in 2014. John Gokey, The Telegram Brushton-Moira’s Alex Burnett waits for a fly ball to center field during the Panthers’ season-opener at Salmon River. Burnett is one of the key components on the Panthers, as they attempt to defend their Section 10 Class C title. “We are a young team with hunger. Most of the players know the thrill of victory with their Section 10 championship, but also know the agony of defeat, which happened in the state quarterfinals,” LaFlesh said. “As a team, we want to make improvements in all of the small areas of the game that can lead to success. We can’t replace the seniors from last year’s team, but we can make them proud by having a relentless work ethic, the desire to win and be great student-athletes. “We have set some goals for the season and look forward to trying to achieve them,” summarized LaFlesh. Brushton-Moira will face traditional East Division rivals Chateaugay and St. Regis Falls along with Norwood-Norfolk, St. Lawrence Central, Parishville-Hopkinton and Madrid-Waddington. The Panthers will also take on Salmon River and Potsdam in nonleague games and will have to get by Potsdam and Tupper Lake in the Section 10 Class C playoffs. Massena may also be added to the schedule as a nonleague game, according to the coach. Roster Seniors Cody Jesmer, Nathaniel Coates.

Gone are 11 – Tucker Bartenslager, Jon Brown, Abe Gravell, Jake Henning, Alex Johnson, Austin Lamay, Blayke Lewis, Kody Mulverhill, Jake Perry, Jordan Yando – of the 13 players on the Huskies’ roster from 2014. Back are just two players that saw limited time in the field a year ago. But back they are. Returning for their final season in an FA uniform will be Jacob Scharf and Dylan Thomas. The third senior on this year’s squad is varsity baseball newcomer Ryan Hooper. The trio will be joined by eight juniors and a pair of sophomores, who will look to improve upon the Huskies’ 8-8 record from a year ago. Juniors on the 2015 version of the FA baseball team will be Jeb Bartenslager, Bailey Conklin, Ian Mahoney, Steven Marshall, Jared Moody, Jacob Poupore, Darren Taylor and Ben Walley. “We are extremely young with very little returning varsity experience,” stated John Gokey, The Telegram Franklin Academy senior Jacob ‘Whitey’ Scharf will help lead the Huskies in their quest for an improved record and a shot at defeating Massena for the Section 10 Class A baseball crown this season. veteran coach Tim Lamay Sr. “I think we can compete in the (Central) division if we get good defense and some timely hitting.” Lamay also pointed out that he will need to find some other arms for the mound, as the only player returning with varsity pitching experience is the junior Moody. What will help Lamay will be the two sophomores that he has brought up to the varsity squad. Jordan Boyea and Zach Monica have been on the hill for several seasons coming up through the modified and junior varsity ranks, along with summer baseball, while Walley, and possibly Poupore and Marshall should be capable of giving Lamay a few innings throughout the spring season. FA will take on traditional Central Division rivals Massena, OFA, Potsdam, Gouverneur, Canton and Salmon River and will, once again, face the Red Raiders for the Section 10 Class A title. The Huskies and OFA Blue Devils will meet three times this season, once each at the team’s respective home field, with the third meeting, a nonleague contest, taking place at 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 16, at Clarkson University. The Huskies, like the rest of the Northern Athletic Conference, had their originally scheduled season opener called off due to inclement weather and unplayable fields. FA opened up the season against archrival Massena on April 14 and suffered an 8-4 setback. Boyea and Monica both made their varsity debuts on the hill, while Boyea had a bit more success at the plate than he did on the mound. FA’s scheduled game for April 17 in Ogdensburg was postponed. The Huskies traveled to Salmon River on April 20 and hosted Potsdam on the 21st. Franklin Academy will host Canton on Monday, April 27. Roster Seniors Ryan Hooper, Jacob Scharf, Dylan Thomas.

The Shamrocks have compiled six perfect Northern Athletic Conference regular season campaigns and have won the last six Section 10 Class C titles – only to suffer their first setback in five of those years in state play. This year looks to be no different, as the Shamrocks return another solid core group of players, including all three starters on attack. Leading the offensive charge in the attack zone for SRC will be senior Russ Oakes and juniors Alan Jacobs and Skkylar Thomas. Thomas led the league in scoring in 2013 – his freshman year. The trio have the capability to put up some gaudy numbers game after game and will be joined on the attack by sophomore Thomas Thompson and eighthgrader Isaiah Skidders among others. Salmon River also returns a solid midfield group in the form of seniors Skye Sunday and Trenton Tarbell and junior Bryton Burns. Sophomore Tanner Tarbell and freshman Jay Chubb will also be called upon to help secure the middle of the field and keep the opposition back on its collective heels. Seniors Chad George and Thomas Benedict will held secure the defensive end of the field and will be joined on the back line by junior Dawson George, sophomores Myles Jacobs and Keaton Thomas and freshman Tehakwirakarenrons McDonald. Barnes continues to have the luxury of a deep bench and should have his charges in midseason form early on, but has an issue with the last line of defense. The Shamrocks are down to just one goalie. They have had two and even three netminders during the past few campaigns, but must rely on the lone goaltender on the current roster. Thankfully for Barnes and his squad, Troi Benedict transferred to Salmon River from Massena or the Shamrocks could possibly still be searching for a starting keeper. Benedict, according to the coach, will be the fulltime goalie for SRC in its quest to maintain its status at the top of the league standings. “Everyone has been working as hard as they can despite not being able to get outside for practice. We, including myself, are very anxious for the weather to cooperate so John Gokey, The Telegram Salmon River’s Skkylar Thomas jostles against a Canton defender during an NAC game in 2014. Thomas led the league in scoring in 2013 and looks to help the Shamrocks maintain their status at the top of the league standings come season’s end. we can get out and get the season started,” stated Barnes earlier in the preseason. The Salmon River spring season will be two games shorter this year, as Colton-Pierrepont will not be playing a varsity schedule, except for one contest against Saranac Lake. Otherwise, the Colts will be playing their spring campaign as a club team, which leaves six other teams that the Shamrocks will have to overcome if they want to retain their Section 10 crowns. Due to the Colts not playing a varsity schedule, the rest of the league will probably play a Section 10 opponent as a nonleague contest. Salmon River will take on traditional rivals Massena, Canton, OFA, Potsdam, St. Lawrence Central and Saranac Lake, playing each team twice before the Section 10 playoffs in mid-May. And the Shamrocks are off to a flying start, winning their first four regular-season games despite only getting outside for some fresh air earlier in the preseason. SRC opened the season with a 15-10 win over Canton, in a game held at SUNY Canton, then traveled to Ogdensburg and soundly defeated the Blue Devils 20-2 to move to 2-0 and added victories against Potsdam (17-4) and Massena (15-3).

Malone Telegram, Thursday, April 23, 2015 - 9 Spring Sports Preview SRF girls young, boys lack numbers JOHN GOKEY The Telegram ST. REGIS FALLS – Overall, the St. Regis Falls girls varsity softball team is young. The Saints have one senior, five juniors and five freshmen on the 2015 team, with all but four members of the squad returning from a 2014 team that produced one victory for coach Carolyn LaPage. That gives the youthful Saints a bit of an edge for this season and the coming years, as varsity experience can only help improve a young team. Back for another round of varsity action will be Hana Northrup, the team’s lone senior, along with juniors Macy Fraser and Harlie Gardner and freshmen Abby Duquette and Kerrigan Rondeau, who played last year as eighth-graders. “I have 11 girls and Madison Austin is looking to return as my pitcher,” said LaPage, who noted that four girls – Maya Walker, Karlee Lucey, Hannaha Martinez and Kayla Jiminez – are first-year varsity participants. “My younger athletes are showing a great deal of poise and strength and two of my new girls have never played softball before, but are very coachable,” she continued. “A few of my players participate in leagues in the offseason so, hopefully, this will pay off.” LaPage noted before the season started that she hasn’t finalized positions, but anticipates that Austin will be in the circle and Northrup should anchor the corner of the infield at first base. Duquette looks to be the frontrunner at shortstop, while Fraser may start at third base. Gardner has moved from the infield and taken up residence behind the plate with Rondeau working in at second base and behind the plate in place of the graduated Makensy Bazdaric, who caught the majority of games last season. “Makala, Kayla and Hannaha will be outfielders and Maya and Karlee can play either infield or outfield,” pointed out LaPage. The girls have already equalled last year’s win total in just their third game, earning a doubleheader split against Parishville-Hopkinton. The lady Saints lost in their first outing of the season, a 14-13, nine-inning setback to ColtonPierrepont. Hurting for players The St. Regis Falls varsity baseball team is in dire straights. The SRF boys were supposed to be led by a pair of seniors – Ryan Duquette and Matt Cummings – a pair of returning NAC All-Northerns. Since second-year coach Jason Cummings sent in his preview information, he has received word that Duquette may not be available to the team at all this spring. Duquette suffered a wrist injury during the Saints winter hoop campaign, which has required further medical treatment and put his spring season in jeopardy, according to information received by the Telegram from his father, Sonny. Couple that injury with the loss of five players from last year’s team, and that leaves the younger Cummings and three returning players to lead the way. Back for another go on the diamond will be Jesse Goodrow, Dylan DeCarr and Trystin Hartson, but Hartson suffered an injury during the preseason and is also questionable for the rest of the spring campaign. Newcomers to the SRF diamond will be seniors Evan Atkinson and Connor Palmer, juniors Elijah Dale and Hieu Tran (foreign exchange student from Vietnam), sophomore Zach White and eighth-grader Jason Bouvia. With only 11 players on the varsity roster to begin with, coach Cummings finds himself in a position of needing bodies to fill out the lineup. He must now rely on a modified player or two passing the physical fitness test in order to move up to the varsity level, or the Saints’ season may truely be in jeopardy. The SRF boys did manage to field a team for the season-opening doubleheader against Parishville-Hopkinton on April 17, but could not produce enough runs to earn a victory. The P-H Panthers swept the twinbill 5-2 and 17-2. Rosters GIRLS Senior Hana Northrup. Juniors Macy Fraser, Harlie Gardner, Makala Moore, Hannaha Martinez, Kayla Jiminez.

FA will take on Gouverneur and Potsdam on Wednesday, April 29, in Potsdam, then host Ogdensburg and Northwood Prep in its home-opener at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 30. The Telegram What a difference a year makes. At the conclusion of the 2014 spring campaign, the Franklin Academy golf team looked to return several of its scoring players for the 2015 season. But not all returned as planned, as Northern Athletic Conference standout Davis Sprague has taken his game to prep school and Nathan Hunter is away on a foreign exchange program. Couple that with the loss of a pair of graduates from the 2014 team, and the Huskies look to rebuild with a young cast of golfers. That leaves the FA linksters with one senior – Dylan Tavernia – to help coach Chris Kelley guide the team toward the top of the NAC Division I standings. “The 2015 edition of the Franklin Academy golf team is a young, but experienced team. This year’s team returns seven of the top eight golfers from 2014,” explained Kelley. “There will be quite a competition for the traveling team spots, with all 12 members of the team capable of shooting a hot round on any given day.” Juniors Brent Lamica and Devan Kelley look to be among the members of the traveling team, while half of the squad is made up of sophomores Joey Brown, Adam Dumas, Logan Lamb, Alex Premo, Blake Pritchard and Brendan Raville. All eight players saw time scoring for the Huskies during the 2014 season. And in a trio of up-and-coming freshmen – Chandler Rivers, Will Perrigo and Jack Petroski – and the future of the FA golf program looks to be solid down the road. And it wasn’t just for Franklin Academy that these student/athletes performed, as the majority of them took part in several tournament events over the summer. “For the first time in as long as I can remember, members of the 2014 team played a lot of tournament golf last summer,” recalled the coach. “The North Country Junior Golf Tour, based out of Canton, gave many of the boys a full schedule of competitive junior tournaments around the North Country. That extra experience should prove helpful this season. “As far as the Section 10, Division I golf goes, I think it’s going to be a matter of any team on any given day this season. This looks to be about the most competitively, well-balanced season that I can remember,” pointed out Kelley.

Throw into the mix Brushton-Moira, which has arguably the best golfer in Section 10 in the form of Devin Delisle, and Madrid-Waddington, a pair of teams that will be in their second seasons as D-I competitors, and the Division I crown could very well come down to the final matches of the regular season. “Overall, we have a young squad that is quite competition-hardened this year. We will be working hard this season to eliminate the big number holes that can really hurt an otherwise solid round of golf. I expect that there will be great competition among the players to earn one of the top-eight spots,” summarized Kelley. The league opens play next week and will conclude with the Section 10 championship rounds on Friday and Saturday, May 22 and 23, at the St. Lawrence Inn course in Canton.

The year before the took over, the Shamrocks struggled with a low turnout, much less earning points for the team score. Two years ago, the squad size number grew a bit and the team still struggled to earn points on the track. Last year, progress was made as both the boys and girls squads picked up a team victory. This season, the teams look to take that step a bit further and be competitive in the Northern Athletic Conference. The size of the boys team remains about the same, while the number of participants on the girls team has grown, despite the emergence of the girls lacrosse program and the softball team. That bodes well for the two coaches, who both look for the Shamrocks to improve on their respective one-win campaigns last year. “Both squads are hopeful to improve as a team, as well as individually,” stated coach Martin, who brings his coaching experience out of the gym where the SRC boys varsity basketball team is coming off a stellar season. “We both return some strong athletes,” continued Martin, who pointed out that junior Jordan Bigness and eighth-grader Tyler Shorette will look for some quality races in the distance events. Coach Martin also pointed out that seniors Chance Monette and Joseph Herne will help the Shamrocks earn points in the throwing events. The boys’ coach also pointed out that team newcomers Kody Daze, Brandon Parent, Tyson Thomas and Gavin Seals will look to establish a solid sprint group for the Shamrocks. On the girls’ side, junior Caroline Russell and sophomore Nidia DeArmayero return to the sprints and hurdles for coach Russell, while Tatyanna Figueroa appears to the frontrunner in the shot put and discus events. Tiara Cook returns to lead the SRC charge in the distance races, while newcomers Elizabeth Fleming, Lindsay McKernan, Taylor Showen and Chase Thompson look to mold into mid-distance runners. People that follow the Salmon River track & field performers will have to do so on the road the entire season, as the Shamrocks will not use their home field at all this season.

The Shamrocks are coming off a hardluck 1-12 campaign and, according to veteran coach Ben Barkley, the team only get better. “We look to rebound from last year’s record. Offensively, we can only improve across the board,” stated Barkley. “We need to get on base and we need to be able to advance runners into scoring position. Patience at the plate will be key.” But the SRC squad will have to do so without a pair of key players from a season ago. Gone are Justin Bigness, who graduated in June, and Zach Smith, who suffered a severe knee injury during the basketball season and had surgery to repair his ACL. Smith, who is only a junior, missed most of the hoop season and will miss all of the spring, and probably, most of the summer baseball season while going through his rehab regime. While it’s only two players lost from a solid group of returning players, Smith was the offensive team leader a year ago – in every offensive category and, according to Barkley, batted .487 in 2014. That does put a crimp in the offensive production of a team that is expected to improve drastically. Returning to the SRC lineup are seniors Jordan Wood, Tyler Brooks, Brandon Bryington, Reno Paquin, John Harvey, Devlin Laughing and Marc Mainville. Joining Wood and Mainville in the projected pitching rotation should be Paquin, and juniors David Roundpoint and Tyler Sisto. But the ace of the staff could be a junior in the form of Cole Lage, who showed great promise last season while Barkley was testing out arms on the hill. Both Lage and Paquin struggled from the bump early on in the season, but as they became more comfortable on the hill, they threw more and more strikes, which is what a team needs to be competitive – especially in the always tough Central Division. Helping out with the pitching staff this season is former Massena Red Raider standout Alex “AJ” Kormanyos, who will don a Salmon River uniform as an assistant coach. But all the projections and changes just happen to hang on how well Smith’s replacement – sophomore Cody Pickering – fares behind the plate in the very demanding position. Salmon River will face traditional Central Division opponents in the form of Massena, Franklin Academy, OFA, Canton, Potsdam and Gouverneur, while the team will play a pair of nonleague games against Franklin County foe Brushton-Moira. The season began on a positive note for the SRC boys with a 2-0 win over Potsdam, but found out that the season has its ups and downs in the second game of the year, a 14-1 defeat by BMC.

He should be a top contender in the section, as he has played golf at Cedar View (the home course for the Shamrocks) for the past 10 years, where he has become one of the best golfers to play there.” LePage also pointed out that there are several players whom he expects should help shore up some of the scoring spots on the team. The coach named players like Jesse McDonald, Connor Walwrath, Salmon River hockey goalie Jarrod Jackson, Coy Tarbell, Chandler Shatraw, Quentin Thomas and Stephen Tremblay. He also pointed out that seniors Brandon Burdash, Justin DeJung and Reno Lauzon should vie for one of the scoring positions on the squad and, that the ladies on the team will compete right along side the boys and there scores will be incorporated into the team’s total. “As you can see, there are many others (22 total) on the team. I am hoping for some surprises,” he added.

But that was then and 2015 is a brand new season with nine returning players. The Bulldogs should overcome a loss of four from a year ago and will be led this season by returning All-Northerns in seniors Nick Ashline and Zach Cowan. Ashline saw extensive time on the mound for Chateaugay last year and could carry the bulk of the pitching load in the early part of the season, although Boyea does have other pitching options at his disposal. “At this time, Nick and varsity newcomer Kieran Gibson will log most of the innings. As other pitchers improve, their innings will increase, giving Nick and Kieran rest as needed,” explained the veteran Chateaugay coach, who added that “the rest of the positions are up for grabs. “I am experiencing good, healthy competition for each position,” added coach Boyea. Returning and vying for a starting job will be seniors Dave Niles, who has the early nod behind the plate, Chris Cluff, Austin Gholson and Derek Ribot, along with juniors Patrick Boyea, Michael Sandvig and Nick Blair. Sophomores Zack Taylor, Blayne Nichols, Andrew Locklin and Chris Redmond and the two freshmen, Gibson and Chandler LaPlante, give the Bulldogs a solid core for the next few seasons. “I feel that we are more athletic than last season and we are definitely looking to improve on last year’s record,” pointed out the veteran mentor. “We are working very hard to improve upon one of our weak areas from last year. We are taking extra batting-cage sessions in an effort to improve our plate production from a year ago. “Since, at least, five positions will be filled by non-returning players, our defense is, and will be, a learning process,” summarized the coach. The CCS boys have had their first two games of the posted scheduled postponed, but did open up the season with a 5-3 win over St. Lawrence Central in Brasher Falls on April 17. CCS girls are young There is not a single senior on the Cha- teaugay softball roster this season, which hopefully means that the team will be set for the next couple of NAC East Division seasons. Third-year Chateaugay coach Kate Dwyer has 10 of her 12-player roster returning to the diamond from a year ago, which gives the Bulldogs a more-thansolid foundation for a few years to come. Leading the charge for the CCS softball squad will be juniors Madison Breen, Brianna Cook, Abby Cowan, Kim Reville and Kayley Whyte. The five will be joined this year by classmate Courtney Yando, who should bring another measure of speed to the Bulldogs’ lineup. Also returning to the Chateaugay roster are sophomores Alicia Cook, Danielle Cook, Emily Dwyer, Morgan Johnston and Rachael Young, along with varsity newcomer Caitlynn McGillicuddy. Young and McGillicuddy should see the bulk of the action from inside the circle, while coach Dwyer has several players that have the capability of playing multiple positions in the field. Reville and Dwyer will share time at first base, while Dwyer and Danielle Cook will see time behind the plate. It appears that Whyte had a lock on second base, although McGillicuddy can step into that position as well. Alicia Cook gets the nod at shortstop with Danielle Cook and Reville able to set up shop at third. Coach Dwyer also has several options in the outfield among Breen, Yando, Johnston, Brianna Cook and Cowan, who can also play at either first or third base. The key to the season will be pitching and defense. If Young and/or McGillicuddy can keep the opposition honest, and the girls make the plays that they are suppose to make, it could be a break-out season for Chateaugay. But that season hasn’t begun as anticipated, as the CCS have lost their first three outings of 2015, falling to BrushtonMoira, St. Lawrence Central and ColtonPierrepont. There is time to turn the season around and equal or improve on last year’s 13-4 overall mark. Chateaugay was 10-2 in the East Division a year ago.

The FA boys did, however, win the Section 10 championship crown at season’s end. But the boys lost a great deal of point production to graduation with several first- and secondteam All-Northerns. And for the lady Huskies, they fell short against perennial-power Canton and were runner-up in both the regular season and sectional meet. They, too, lost a lot of scoring power to graduation, most notably Becca Bond, Morgan Bronner, Carrie Pomainville, Marissa Perez, Angelia Grimshaw and Amiee Fleury. Most of these girls are taking part in college athletics, along with their academic schedules. The boys also lost a multitude of scoring punch as Jamiel Stapleton and Daniel Badgley were two of the top scorers in the hurdles, sprints and jumps, while Brady Monette earned a second team All-Northern spot in the pentathlon. Bach Schanck was a member of the second-team All-Northern 4x800-meter relay team, while Tehatakenta Boots was a first team member for the shot put and made the second team in discus. Couple that with Jarret Lamica and Cody Garland in the sprints, throws and jump events, and a good portion of the scoring is gone. But, both teams do return a bounty of potential point-leading performers. To start with, Mitchell Marlow packs the most point-punch among the returnees. Last season, Marlow made his way on to the second team in the 1600-meters, the 3200-meter runs, along with participating on the 4x800meter relay team. He was also a first time member in the indoor 1600 meters. And he’s only a junior! Also back for FA will be Will Bronner, who has continued to amass points throughout his FA career, and his senior season should be no exception. Bronner was a second team member in the steeple chase last spring and he also runs the long and middle distances and was a key member on the 4x400-meter relay team. Add in Mike Campbell (2nd team 4x800), Curtis Landry (2nd team 4x800, distance races), RJ Pearsall, a sophomore (2nd team 4x800), Ryan Tober (2nd team 4x400), Joe Tracy (2nd team 800-meters and 4x400) and the Lavoie brothers, Dylan (1st team steeplechase) and Brandon (2nd team 4x800), and junior Josh Bordeaux (2nd team 4x800 and middle distances) and the points should certainly return. Throw into the mix BrushtonMoira student Marco Pirazzini, a foreign exchange student from Italy, who equalled the Franklin Academy 55-meter hurdle record this past winter, and the Huskies look like they will be near the top again this season. Mix in a bunch of seniors looking to make a mark before they leave, and FA looks well-rounded. Bailey Fellion and Tyler Martin, who is recovering from surgery, will help the Huskies in the sprints, while Garrett Duval will be both on the track and flying into the pits in the long and triple jump events. Senior Dakota Connell will take part in the jumping events, the sprints and may take a stab at the pentathlon. Juniors Josh Dora and Matt Gadway will compete in the throwing events, with Gadway also running in the middle-distance races. There are several other returning members of last year’s team and a whole batch of newcomers who, unfortunately, are just too plentiful to name everyone. On the ladies’ side, will the Franklin Academy girls have enough returning point producers to upend the Canton Golden Bears, or will Norwood-Norfolk or Gouverneur take advantage of FA and Canton beating one another up to sneak past? It will be an interesting spring season for the FA girls, who lost an abundance of points in the team column. But don’t count out the returning veterans such as Hannah Perry, who will jump into the pits and toss the shot and discus, while John Gokey, The Telegram Franklin Academy’s Mitchell Marlow and Dylan Lavoie will be key members for the Huskies this spring. Marlow is one of the league’s top distance runners, while Lavoie, a Chateaugay student, joins Marlow in taking part in a number of distance and relay events. the distance events are owned by Emily Pomainville, who has been among the sectional leaders for the past couple of seasons and will look to wear the green & white of FA at the state meet in June. Lillian Gishey has steadily improved over the course of her FA career and is looking to go out in style, while Tricia Cositore is one determined athlete and will be a force on the track for a couple of more seasons. Liz Kielly is known for her hurdling capabilities and has improved over the past year, while Lauren Reynolds takes part in the relay races as Rinn Schanck gets her work in just going from event to event. Also returning the FA lineup are Madeleine Champagne, Jamel Clark, Rachel Haas, Jenna Broker, Annie Campbell, Jordyn Dora, Mina Fakir, Samantha “Sam” Fefee, Adriana Perez, Hayley Lewis, Loryn Fouse and Kennedy Jarvis, who will look to dominate in the throwing events. Along with those coming back for another spring campaign, FA coaches Scott Marlow and Cory West also have a good group of young performers entering the ranks. Names that you will read, and hear about, for the new few seasons could very well be Madalyn Saumier, Katie Dupree, Kaila Feiman, Alexis Herne Martha Ibarra, Makayla Marshall, Kimberlee Malark, Rebecca Penera, while Jenna Rippens is a foreign exchange student and looks to produce points before her term here is up. The FA boys and girls outdoor track & field teams have identical Section 10 schedules and will hosted the season-opening meet on April 22. The Huskies entertained the Tupper Lake Lumberjacks and the Norwood-Norfolk Flyers. Both teams will travel to Ogdensburg on Saturday (April 25) for the annual Section 10 Relay Carnival. The event is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. FA’s next home meet will be against the Canton Golden Bears at 4:30 p.m. on Friday, May 1.
