While most reading this undoubtedly spent part of today once again digging out from the third major snowstorm to hit the region in the last three weeks, you can take some comfort in the fact that spring will be here soon, and before that, there will be plenty of lacrosse to enjoy College teams from […]
We told you folks way back, back, back on Aug. 29 that former Rocky Point star Tommy Palasek would likely end up at Syracuse after announcing his transfer from Johns Hopkins.

For Jordan Fried, just finishing the New York City Marathon last Sunday was a significant achievement in itself.
