Chautauqua County and the surrounding areas are home to some of the world’s best fall weather, scenery and activities. It’s truly a wonderful time of year to live in Western New York. This is Part II of a two-part series on suggestions on fun fall activities. Be sure to check
out the Sept. 2 edition of the Chautauqua Star or visit chautauquastar.com to find Part I of this series. Part I included some great hiking locales, apple picking orchards, fall golf options and a whole lot more. Most of the activities on this list are family friendly. Many are either inexpensive or even free. With all of the options right here at home, there’s really no excuse for sitting on the couch and being lazy this fall.
Here’s what to do instead: HAUNTED HOUSES The horror genre isn’t for everyone, but if the idea of getting your pants scared off excites you, there are some outstanding haunted houses to check out this fall. District of the Dead is located on Ridge Road in West Seneca. It’s billed CONTINUED ON PAGE 3

WNY FILLED WITH FUN FALL FESTIVITIES PART II, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 horror experience” as it (seemingly) combines aspects of an escape room with the classic haunted house. Another option would be the House of Horrors in Cheektowaga. Check out houseofhorrorsbuffalo.com for more information on this one. Be warned though, it’s not for the faint of heart. These haunted houses have some extremely talented makeup artists, set designers, etc. BOWLING For many in Chautauqua County, fall brings about bowling season. It’s time to lug those bowling bags down from the attic and hit the lanes. No matter where you live in Western New York, you won’t have to drive too far to find a quality bowling alley. Jamestown Bowling Company not only has pristine lanes, but some top-notch grub over in the sports bar area. Lucky Lanes in Fredonia has 40 lanes so you’ll always be able to get a lane without waiting. Lakeview Lanes in Silver Creek, State Lanes in Falconer and Cutting Lanes in Clymer all give bowlers a nearby option to knock down some pins. ZOOS Zoos may seem like more of a summer activity, but as the weather cools a little bit, the animals become more active. The lions, which seemingly spend all of their time lounging during the hot summer months, are often up playing and entertaining in the fall. The Buffalo Zoo has been making constant improvements over the past several years and has a six-month old lion cub. The rainforest exhibit is a truly unique experience. The Erie Zoo is another wonderful option. For families with children, the train ride is a must. If time and travel aren’t
too big of an issue, the Pittsburgh Zoo is simply astounding. The aquarium, which is just part of the zoo, can’t be beat. Cleveland and Toronto both have zoos that could be fit into a one-day trip. CROSS ROADS MARKET There is a lot to be said for shopping local. Cross Roads Market in Westfield is a wonderful collaboration of local vendors, artists, farmers and more. Are you unsure of what to get someone for a birthday or another occasion? A walk around the grounds of Crossroads will surely lead to some interesting and unique gift ideas. BOARD GAMES Yes, sometimes fall weather isn’t conducive to hiking, apple picking, visiting the zoo, etc. Here in WNY, the fall can get quite wet. On days like that, why not pull a board game off the shelf? Many people are still stuck on Life, Sorry and Monopoly, but board games have evolved similarly to video games. The digital games have gone from Pong to Call Of Duty, but analog games have graduated from Candyland to Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne and a whole lot more. Mass market stores are starting to carry more and more of these modern classics, but game stores such as Power Nine in downtown Fredonia offer not only games for sale, but also feature a library of games for people to try out. Thursday nights are the board game meetup and the people are friendly and welcoming to new gamers. WINE TRAIL/TASTING The Lake Erie Wine Trail (previously called the Chautauqua-Lake Erie Wine Trail) features 23 local wineries that are open year-round for tasting and shop-

ping. No matter where you’re located in Western New York, you can be sure that you’re near one of the region’s wonderful wineries. Wine tasting gift certificates or just a bottle of local wine is another fantastic option for that hard-to-buy-for person, too. There are other wine-related events in the area, too. “The Winefest in Northeast, Pa. is the best thing ever,” Sarah Burnett said. “Ever.”
The Grape Discovery Center in Westfield could be a great place to start. It’s a non-profit that “supports and promotes the grape industry through sharing stories and engaging, educating and informing the public about all things grape.” Stefan Gestwicki is the sports editor of the Chautauqua Star.

For the past 25 years Jaroszynski has practiced family court law and has served as Ellicott Town Justice since 2010. A lifelong Chautauqua County resident, she resides in Falconer with her husband James M. Jaroszynski, a retired 25-year veteran of the Town of Ellicott Police Department, and their two daughters Hannah, age 18, and Kathryn, age 16. Her husband is currently employed as a part-time officer with the Town of Ellicott Police Department and is assigned as a School Resource Office at Falconer Central School. A private practice attorney, Jaroszynski has dedicated herself to representing children and everyday individuals, helping them to navigate through a very complex and often emotionally charged Family Court system.

She continued her education at Ohio Northern University Pettit College of Law where she earned her Juris Doctorate Degree in 1992. She was admitted to the Practice of Law in the New York State 8th Judicial District in January 1993 and has been practicing law in Chautauqua County 25 years.

“As a Family Court Judge, I will bring my knowledge and experience as both a Family Court Attorney and Ellicott Town Justice to all matters that face our families in Chautauqua County with integrity and impartiality. Family justice is of the utmost importance because, simply, strong families build strong communities.” In addition to her professional work, Judge Jaroszynski is a lector and catechist for Our Lady of Loreto Parish, past Vice President of the Falconer Board of Education, and has been very active with the Lucille Ball Little Theater of Jamestown and the Junior Guilders organization.

Honeybun Cake By Katy Wise Contributing Writer
A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of trying a delicious dessert that was almost better than a cinnamon roll. It made a great birthday dessert, and even though it could be enjoyed year round, there was something about it that gave you that warm and fuzzy feeling inside. Something that would be perfect for eating in front of a fireplace, or while snuggled up in a blanket, watching leaves fall from the trees. I'm sure some of you may not agree with this, but I am very ready for fall. I have had several people jokingly yell at me for being excited about the next season, and not understand me liking fall more than summer. Don't get me wrong. I love summer. The beach, the sun, the warm weather, the fair, swimming pools, cherry picking, watermelons, the list goes on and on. There are certain activities that are just better off being saved for summer. Swimming during the fall would not be nearly as enjoyable as during the summer. Just like eating pumpkin flavored things during the month of June would be inappropriate. Everything has its own season, and now that Autumn is just around the corner, I am ready to embrace it. Hot cocoa, apple picking, jumping in leaf piles, pump-
kins, pumpkin spice lattes, all of it. All of the Fall things. In case you were wondering, my husband and I are totally those people that go to Starbucks during the late Summer to get an early start on our Fall flavored drinks. Those drinks that need to be eaten with this cake, which brings me back to the point of all of this. And no, this cake is not healthy. Not at all, but that's
why there's balance and moderation, right? Ingredients Batter • 1 pkg. yellow cake • 3/4 C. vegetable oil • 4 eggs • 8 oz. sour cream • 1 C. brown sugar • 3 tsp. cinnamon Frosting • 2 C. powdered sugar
• 4 Tbsp. milk • 1 Tbsp. vanilla 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare 9x13 cake pan. 2. Mix together cake mix, vegetable oil, eggs and sour cream. 3. Pour half of the batter into cake pan. 4. Stir brown sugar and cinnamon together, and sprinkle on top of batter.
5. Pour remaining cake batter into pan, then swirl together using a knife. 6. Bake for 40 minutes, or until the cake passes the toothpick test. 7. Stir together frosting ingredients until smooth, immediately pour on top of cake. Enjoy! As always, thanks for reading! Happy baking and Happy Fall from hbk!

National Preparedness Month: Tips to Get Your Family Ready
HEALTH 19
Contributed Article StatePoint
While most people don’t like to think about worst case scenarios, giving them their proper consideration can ultimately offer peace of mind. September is National Preparedness Month and it is a great time to get your home and family ready for a range of emergencies. Here are three steps to take. Stock Up Every home should contain a supply kit that includes a surplus of nonperishable food items, as well as fresh bottled water. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends one gallon per person in your household per day for three days. FEMA also recommends that the kit include prescription medications for everyone in the family, personal hygiene items, a flashlight, extra batteries and matches, amongst other items. For a complete list, visit fema.gov. Free Yourself of Your Phone While we all know that smartphone technology and other mobile devices offer us useful information, in an emergency scenario these devices may lose their signal or their battery life. Stay prepared and informed no matter what happens with wearable technology that is not at the mercy of a cellphone tower or a battery that needs to be recharged every few hours. For example Casio’s PRO TREK PRG300 timepieces feature functions like an altimeter, compass and barometer (great for staying aware of changes in temperature or air pressure). They also deliver this information hands-free, which can be useful any day of the week but extra valuable in an emergency. Get Insured Is your home and property properly insured? Know what your homeowners insurance covers and determine whether it is sufficient to meet your needs. For example, homeowners insurance policies do not typically cover flooding, which requires separate coverage. Learn more about your home’s primary risks and get covered now, before it’s too late. No one has a crystal ball that can see into the future, so to best protect your family and your home, get prepared for everything.

Time to Register for Children’s Music Studio Classes Contributed Article Community Music Project
When music and movement are a natural, joyous part of childhood, children benefit greatly in many areas of life. That is the philosophy of Musikgarten, the international leader in early childhood music education that trains teachers how to guide infants, toddlers, and children in developing a love of music. The Jamestown community is fortunate to have three Musikgarten-certified teachers who lead Children’s Music Studio classes, a program of Community Music Project. Instructors Susan Caster, Melanie Gritters, and Gail Grundstrom have more than 18 years’ experience, with Gritters and Grundstrom having recently completed their Masters of Music Education Degrees. Registration is now open for the Fall/ Winter classes that begin the week of September 19. You can register online at makingmusik.com/childrensmusicstudio or contact Melanie at (716) 7637425 or Gail at (716) 665-3266. More than 1300 children and adults have participated in the Children’s Music Studio since it began in 1997. Classes are designed for children from birth to the age of nine and their caregivers. Group keyboard classes are a unique feature of this curriculum. Language development, self-expression, memory skills, concentration, social interaction, fine motor skills, listening, problem solving, teamwork, goal setting, and coordination are all shaped by early music and movement education. What’s more, as a child learns to play music, other areas of development — creativity, family bonding, selfesteem, confidence, emotional development — are also positively affected. The fundamental goals of Children’s Music Studio are, as early as possible, to develop musicality, musical literacy, and the ability to sing an unfamiliar song with accurate tones and rhythms. Classes for babies and toddlers are 30
Children’s Music Studio classes are led in Jamestown by three teachers who were trained and are certified by Musikgarten, the international leader in early childhood music education. Registration is now in progress for nine different 15-session classes that begin the week of September 19. Pictured here, teacher Gail Grunstrom is listening to vocal patterns by cousins with their grandfather in the 3-4 year old class.
minutes each week. Classes for 3-4 year olds and family music are 45 minutes, older children are one hour, and keyboard classes are 75 minutes each week. Classes are held in the Fellowship Hall of First Covenant Church, 520 Spring Street, and Warner Place at Lutheran, 715 Falconer Street, in Jamestown. The class schedule for the 15 weeks of the 2016 Fall/Winter session that begins the week of September 19 (arranged generally by age/experience of the child) is: • Thursdays, 6 p.m., Warner Place: Family Music (birth - 4) • Wednesdays, 9: 30 a.m., First Covenant: Family Music for Babies (newborns - 18 months)

COMMENTARY afternoon in Sherman against the Clymer/ Sherman/Panama team. Randolph will take on Portville on Friday evening. SPRINGVILLE 52, FREDONIA/WESTFIELD/BROCTON 14 It was a rough inaugural game for the new FWB team as Springville’s Ian Baker was virtually unstoppable on the ground, helping the Griffins to a comfortable road win to kick off the Class B South season. Baker ripped off 248 yards and six touchdowns on just 19 carries as part of a 417-yard Springville ground attack. FWB gave the huge home crowd something
to cheer about early in the second quarter when quarterback Reid Tarnowski took a fourthdown snap, scrambled out of the pocket and launched the ball high into the end zone, where Nicco Pucci was there to out-jump the Springville cornerback for a thrilling touchdown. The other FWB touchdown was also of the exciting variety. Following a Springville touchdown, FWB’s Joell Colon took the ensuing kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown. FWB will look to crack the win column on Saturday afternoon against Cassadaga Valley/Falconer. CHEEKTOWAGA 27, DUNKIRK 13 Missed opportunities
cost the Marauders in a season-opening Class B loss to Cheektowaga. Alton Ingram gave Dunkirk an early lead after busting loose for a 43-yard touchdown, but it took just two minutes for Cheektowaga to find the endzone. That score was part of a 53-yard effort on the ground by Ingram to lead the way for Dunkirk. Ingram also led the defense with eight tackles. After the Marauders fell behind 20-7, quarterback Evon Hernandez took the ball in from 11 yards out to cut that deficit to 20-13. Dunkirk will try again for its first win of the season on Friday night at Olean.
Ranking The Quarterbacks Part II By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
(Editor's note: This is part II of a series that began last week in which I rank the 32 starting quarterbacks in the NFL. Please note that this was written before the Tony Romo injury, Colin Kaepernick situation, etc.) 15) Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys — Romo is now 36 years old and hasn’t played 16 games since 2012. His prime was actually better than I gave him credit for at the time, but that prime is also far into the rearview mirror. Still, Dallas will be happy to have him back. 14) Tyrod Taylor, Buffalo Bills — The Bills obviously believe that Taylor is the guy CONTINUED ON PAGE 26

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2016
RANKING THE QUARTERBACKS PART II, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 after handing him a nice fat contract, but I’m not sold. How can I be after just 14 games? Did I like what I saw? Of course. I’m not blind. He passed the eye test and it’s hard to argue with 20 touchdowns against just six picks. Just give me a bigger sample size. 13) Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons — Shocked to see his name so low? Me too, actually. This is a guy who has thrown for over 4,000 yards and 20 touchdowns in five straight seasons. He’s a case of always being surrounded by amazing weapons. I’m not sure he’d be anywhere near as great without Julio Jones. 12) Jameis Winston, Tampa Bay Buccaneers — Over 4,000 yards as a 21-year old rookie? Check. Praise from veteran teammates? Check. Size? Check. Poise? Check. Winston impressed in just about every way in his rookie year, showing taking him as the first overall pick in 2015 was the right choice for Tampa Bay. 11) Blake Bortles, Jacksonville Jaguars — I’m not stupid, I know that a good portion of Bortles’ stats came in garbage time with the Jags losing by multiple scores. Still, he showed a ton of improvement from Year 1 to Year 2. If he makes another jump, he’ll be among the league’s elite in no time. It’s also hard to teach size and Bortles has the look. 10) Carson Palmer, Arizona Cardinals — When Palmer plays a full season, he’s among the NFL’s elite, even at 36 years old. He put up over 4,600 yards and a quarterback rating of 104.6 last season. He hasn’t lost much on his fastball and reads defenses as well as anyone in the league. 9) Derek Carr, Oakland Raiders — Carr is right in the heart of the new age of quarterbacks. He might not get
4) Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers — Uh oh. Am I going to get hate for this? Yes, the reigning MVP is a freak of nature. He’s massive, athletic, has an arm like a cannon and just put up an eye-popping season. I love Newton. Being fifth on this list isn’t a knock. There are some amazing quarterbacks in this league. 3) Andrew Luck, Indianapolis Colts — Luck is the consensus best young quarterback in the league. In fairness, Luck turns 27 the first week of the season. He’s not exactly young anymore. He should be hitting his prime right about now and I fully expect him to. If he’s healthy, few quarterbacks can match Luck’s combination of arm strength, accuracy and athleticism. 2) Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers — In just 12 games last year, Aaron Rodgers celebrates being No. 1 on my list of the NFL’s starting quarterbacks. (AP Big Ben threw for 3,938 yards. That’s Photo/Alex Brandon) a 16-game pace of 5,250 yards. He’s as while with the Chargers. He hasn’t had the press, but he improved in just about a quarterback rating of less than 90 since tough as they come. He throws the best every way from his rookie season to his deep ball in the league. He’ll probably 2007 (89.4). He’s been simply awesome sensational sophomore season in 2015. for the past decade.

I CAN’T BELIEVE IT EVEN HAS TO BE SAID BUT… Okay. Now that that’s out of my system, I can discuss the Star Sports Editor week of golf.

Yes, one and a off his lawn, but I had one of half. I had plans to play on Satthe more aggravating rounds of urday, but my partner canceled golf I’ve ever experienced over on me.

Normally course. that would be my best chip of the round by a long shot, but (Takes a deep breath) By Stefan Gestwicki
my short game was definitely on point on Saturday (more on that later). No. 4 was a disaster of epic proportions. My drive went down in the gully. Yeah, you know the gully on No. 4 at Hillview. On attempting to just get safely back into the fairway on my second shot, I clipped a branch and came straight back down on the side of the hill. With my feet way above the ball, I predictably went way right…into the woods. I dropped for four and was hitting for bogey from 150 yards out. Those aren’t exactly the types of holes you dream about. I ended up with an eight on the scorecard after I was unable to make a pretty doable putt for seven. The par 3 was nothing to write home about for either of us as we both bogeyed it, but then No. 6 was our best combined hole of the day. It was my lone good drive of the day. Chris, meanwhile, topped his drive pretty badly. He recovered by
hitting two nice hybrids to the front of the green and hitting a gorgeous chip (his best of the day, I would say) within a few feet of the pin. It wasn’t quite a gimme, but it was great watching his ball track the flag like that. After my drive, I smoked a hybrid just off the front of the green and maybe a little bit right. A really nice chip gave me a fantastic look at birdie, which I missed by a hair. I was really mad at myself because I had the line and just mishit the ball. There wasn’t a break I didn’t see and I didn’t lip out or anything, I just didn’t hit the ball on the line I wanted to. That was frustrating. Looks at birdie, especially ones as makeable as this, don’t come around too often. If that wasn’t my best hole of the day, then No. 7 definitely was. My drive was just fair. It drifted a little bit right on me, but didn’t get into the trees. My second shot was a low, hard hybrid that came up just a wee bit short of the green.
My chip was outstanding. I could see the break. I hit the shot I wanted. The ball tracked right to the flag and went right over the edge of the cup. I’ve never birdied No. 7 before but I really thought I had it there. At least it gives me hope for the future. That’s a tough hole. So it wasn’t a great round, but what I can take away from it is that I only putted 14 times and didn’t have any of those dreaded three-putts. With the exception of that random ‘8’, I was just five over par. Chris had just 17 putts, so it was definitely a good day for us on the green. In fact, he could/ should have had fewer putts than that as he left a couple just on the edge of the cup. It’s always tough to swallow wasting a stroke tapping the ball an inch. That’s it for now. The golf season will end before you know it. So get out there and play while you can. In fact, give me a call and I’ll play a round with you.

Family Martial Arts Center Holds Black Belt Advancement Ceremony Contributed Article Family Martial Arts Center
On Wednesday August 17, 2016 The Family Martial Arts Center held a highly prestigious advancement ceremony in the Kempo Karate Organization. The two-hour promotion ceremony was held at The Boys and Girls club of Dunkirk. We are honored to be part of their programming to benefit youth in our community. I highly recommend their educational and fun programs. Contact the coordinators at 366-1061 for any information or questions to enroll your children. While building confidence, selfesteem and character in their journey, each student has met several challenges which include weapons training, ground defense training, physical conditioning and endurance, hand to hand defensive and offensive tactical training, instructional training and many other techniques and aspects of the Martial Arts. To obtain black belt status, one must comply with a minimum of five years of continual training. Their demeanor and attitude in public must reflect who they have become. Black belt (Sensei) is a way of life. Sensei Timmy Smith, 16 years old from Dunkirk, was promoted from his junior black belt status to Adult Shodan status. Shodan is translated to “new beginnings”. Sensei Timmy Smith has been involved with The Family Martial Arts Center for 10 years. Sensei Smith instructs many weekly classes. Parents have nicknamed him “drill sergeant”. Yet he is very disciplined and strict with his instructions, he has a very mild personality and a true kindness about him. Sensei Smith’s parents, Darrel and Angel had this to say,” His knowledge of kempo karate has helped shape him into the young man that he is. His black belt test was a very friendly atmo-
sphere. Tim was exhausted during his testing. He just wanted to sit down and call it done but he knew that he needed to persevere til the end. Tim has been with The Family Martial Arts Center, studying under Sensei Bill Matteson for 10 years now.” Sensei Smith will continue to learn and instruct classes with our Dojo (studio). Sensei Caleb Krzyzanowicz, 15 years old from Dunkirk, was promoted from brown belt to his junior black belt status. Sensei Caleb Krzyzanowicz been involved with The Family Martial Arts Center for eight years. A brown belt will maintain the rank of belt for a minimum of one year during his Instructional training process. Sensei Krzyzanowicz is in the process of creating his own Bo staff weapons class. Sensei Krzyzanowicz parents, Jason and Melissa had this to say,” He has had a great support system within the dojo to encourage him and help get him through the rough times and challenges and his growth and coming into his own person. His patience and confidence giving meaning to defenses/ strikes etc. when teaching. Not giving up to get to his black belt, pushing through his issues and fears etc. He has a quiet approach in sync with his quieter demeanor. Growing confident in himself has greatly improved. Taking on the Bo staff (weapon) outside of class and learning so much with his dad ( Jason) and knowing his own strengths and weaknesses.” Sensei Krzyzanowicz will continue to Instruct and learn at our Dojo. After enduring sparring and ground drills, the conclusion of the evening was emotional and relieving. Prior to presenting the belts to each student, myself, Master Sensei Matteson and Sensei Collins spoke proudly about their journeys. For Sensei Caleb Krzyzanowicz, a special part of the ceremony received comments from his parents. I asked his mother Melissa and Father
Pictured from left to right: Sensei Stephanie Pintabona, Sensei Don LeBlanc, Sensei Tim Smith, Sensei Garrett Castle, Master Sensei Bill Matteson, Sensei Chris Collins, Sensei Jake Eckley and Sensei Randy Cooper.
Jason to please come forward to comment to Caleb of their true feelings and opinion of his accomplishments. They has so many comments and praises for this amazing young man that emotions poured. Several Sensei from the Kempo Karate Organization attended the ceremony. A special guest Sensei Randy Cooper attended the ceremony. For every 10,000 people that join a martial arts academy, half will drop out within the first six months. Of those remaining students, about 1,000 will complete one year of training and then quit. About 500 will study for two years, but only 100 will see their third anniversary. On average, only 10 will make 1st degree black belt. Usually, only one or two will make it to 2nd degree black belt. I shall go on to teach other what he/she has learned, for the martial arts is now a part of their life and they shall go on to share this life with others.

Bethany College scored just over a minute into the game, but the Fredonia men's soccer team roared back with four unanswered goals and claimed the Johns Hopkins Tournament title on Sunday. Bethany's Jose Arzate score an unassisted goal just 1:03 into the game. Fredonia answered with goals by Jimmy Ritchie (East Aurora, N.Y. / East Aurora), David Trabold (Fairport, N.Y. / Fairport), Parker Healy (East Aurora, N.Y. / East Aurora) and Brian Theuerkauf (Lancaster, N.Y. / Lancaster) to provide the margin of victory. "We were relentless in attacking and it showed with so many different players in the scoring column," said head coach P.J. Gondek. Fredonia's first score came in the 25th minute. Theuerkauf's shot was saved by the keeper, but Ritchie was able to drive home the rebound. Just before the half, Trabold took a low cross from Bryan Sibble (Liverpool, N.Y. / Cicero-North Syracuse) on a free kick and put it in the bottom left corner to give Fredonia a 2-1 lead. "We responded very well after giving up an early goal with two goals to close out the half," Gondek added. Midway through the second half, Healy put a ball in the top right corner of the net to give the Devils some breathing room. Ritchie had the assist. The scoring was capped with just over five minutes left in the match when Theuerkauf dribbled to the left side of the box and put the final goal in the lower left corner. Jeremy Bari (Niagara Falls, N.Y. / Niagara Wheatfield) was credited with the win in goal, making three saves. Callum Appleby surrendered all four goals while making six saves for Bethany. Fredonia owned a 21-11 advantage on shots, and a 5-3 edge in corner kicks. Fredonia finished 1-0-1 in the tournament. Bethany and host Johns Hopkins played to a 1-1 draw the day before, while the Devils and USMMA played to a 2-2 draw on Saturday. Hopkins defeated USMMA, 1-0, on Sunday, therefore the Devils were awarded the title based on goal differential. The Devils' home opener is this weekend when both the women's and men's team play host to the annual Clarion Classic. "We still need to shore up a few parts of the field heading into the Clarion Classic against a really good Houghton team this Friday," said Gondek. Baldwin Wallace and Buffalo State also come to town. Action takes place Friday and Saturday at University Stadium.

The Fredonia women's volleyball team improved to 3-2 this season, defeating the visiting Allegheny Gators three sets to none on Tuesday. It was the home opener for the Blue Devils. The Devils had a relatively easy first set, winning 25-17. The second set proved much tighter. Tied 7-all, the Gators rallied for a ten of the next 14 points to stake a 17-11 lead. Fredonia ran off four straight to pull within two, 17-15. The set remained close until the end. Down 27-26, Fredonia's Kailey Falk had back-to-back kills before Rachel Aiello drove home the set's final point. Falk came up clutch with three out of the team's last four kills, as Fredonia eventually won 29-27. The third set saw the Gators jump out to a 10-5 lead. After Fredonia gained the next point and the serve, Courtney Poirier stepped to the service line and Fredonia rattled off 10 more points. Poirier drilled a pair of aces, and Stanek had four kills in the rally as Fredonia

gained a 16-10 lead. Allegheny fought back to tie it at 22-all, forcing head coach Geoff Braun to use a timeout. After trading a pair of points, Stanek gave the Devils a 24-23
advantage on a solo block, and finished the game with the final kill of the evening. Falk led the offense with 10 kills, while Stanek had nine and Megan Collins
had eight. Hallie Christopher had 22 assists and Amanda Mosack had 14. Fredonia travels to New Paltz this weekend to participate in the non-conference Hawks Invitational.
Senior Trio Counted on to Lead Volleyball Contributed Article FSU Sports Information Dept.
The Fredonia women's volleyball team finished with a solid 22-12 overall mark last season. However, the traditional SUNYAC power finished at 4-5 in the conference, and narrowly bowed out in the first round of the tournament, 3-2, to Oswego. The team goal is to ultimately win the SUNYAC Championship. The last time that occurred was 2008, when the team made it all the way to the NCAA Division III quarterfinal round. The 2014 Blue Devils made it to the conference championship match. "Every year our goal is to win the SUNYAC," head coach Geoff Braun said. "If we keep improving throughout the season we'll put ourselves in a position to do just that." To accomplish its goal, the team will have to count on some familiar faces. The Devils lost four significant seniors to graduation, and made only one roster addition – freshman setter Amanda Mosack (Webster, N.Y. / Webster Schroeder). The core of the team will be made of three seniors and five juniors among 11 returning players. The senior trio -- Sara Madison (Rochester, N.Y. / Penfield), Megan Collins (Burlingham, N.Y. / Pine Bush) and Saverina Chicka (Shelter Island, N.Y. /
Shelter Island) – are all listed as outside hitters, with Chicka also playing middle blocker. "Our three senior captains," Braun said, "have genuinely embraced the opportunity to lead this team and it is one of the many reasons I am confident about the season." Madison's 297 kills are tops among returning players. At 6'2'' Chicka will be a force in the middle as well. Juniors Kristen Stanek (Hamburg, N.Y. / Orchard Park) and Jane Garrity (Victor, N.Y. / Victor) will help fill the shoes of grads Paulina Rein and Jessica DiChristopher – both of whom earned All-SUNYAC honors during their time at Fredonia. Stanek (253 kills) and Garrity (178) ranked third and fourth, respectively, last season. Garrity looks to be a presence again this year in the middle role as she collected 178 kills and 72 blocks, second on the team. The Devils will be looking for a new setter to step with the graduation of Kelly Edinger. Junior Hallie Christopher (East Amherst, N.Y. / Clarence) will bring familiarity to the offense, and should be pushed by the freshman Mosack, who comes from a very successful high school program. The libero position will also see a new face this year due to the graduation of CONTINUED ON PAGE 35
