Brooks Physical Therapy A Hidden Gem in Sports Medicine Q&A ON VERTIGO Contributed Article Brooks Memorial Hospital
Have you ever heard the term Vertigo? Those of us having family or friends with vertigo know it can be frustrating…and can potentially lead to balance issues and falls. For those who aren’t familiar, Vertigo is when a person feels as if they are spinning or swaying – it is the most common type of dizziness and is often caused by an inner ear problem. Tammy Kiszak, Physical Therapist with Brooks Memorial Hospital specializes in Orthopedics and is certified in Vestibular Rehab. For the benefit of our community, Tammy shares responses to the most common questions she typically receives about dizziness and vertigo. • What is vertigo? A: Vertigo is a perception of movement either self or surroundings. Vertigo is a form of dizziness. Dizziness is a painless head discomfort with many possible causes including disturbances of vision, the brain, balance or vestibular system of the inner ear and gastrointestinal system. Q: What are the causes of vertigo associated with Benign Paroxysmal Position Vertigo (BPPV)? A: In simple terms, when the otoconia (crystals) in the inner ear become dislodged, they can move into one of the semicircular canals causing the canal to become sensitive to head position changes. Most of the time, however, causes are unknown, but can be associated with: • Minor to severe blows to the head • Disorders that damage the inner year • Migraine Q: What are the symptoms of dizziness or vertigo associated with Benign Paroxysmal Position Vertigo (BPPV)? A: • Dizziness • A sense of self or surroundings as spinning or moving • A loss of balance or unsteadiness • Nausea • Vomiting • Brief episodes of vertigo can be experienced with changes in head position such as lying down, rolling over, bending over, looking or reaching up, getting up from bed. • BPPV symptoms usually are brief, lasting less than 2 minutes and can begin within 1-40 seconds of changes in body or head position. • Sometimes nystagmus may occur, which is a jerky movement of the eyes. Q: How can a Physical Therapist help? A: A Physical Therapist (PT) will perform a specific vestibular evaluation to determine if your vertigo or dizziness is associated with crystals dislodging causing BPPV. If it is related to BPPV, your PT will perform a canal repositioning technique that same day. You would then be prescribed a home program, which consist of a habituation exercise to be performed daily 3 times a day. This would be usually 24 hours after initial treatment (CRT), and continue until you no lon-

The Bible clearly says that God is not holding our mistakes against us (2 Corinthians 5:19). He knew we would fail so He made a way, through Jesus Christ, to allow for forgiveness. 1 John 1:9 tells us that when we sin, all we need to do is confess it to God and He is faithful to forgive us and encourage us to keep going! So submit your mistakes and failings to God and ask for forgiveness and direction so you can do better. Take this encouragement and know that no matter what, He loves you.

Boy Scouts to Honor Dan Reininga with the Good Scout Award Contributed Article John Wojciechowicz
The Allegheny Highlands Council, Boy Scouts of America, headquartered in Falconer, New York, announced today that Dan Reininga will be honored with the Good Scout Award at their Annual Golf Tournament. It will be held at Shorewood Country Club on Friday, June 17. “We are extremely pleased,” said Derek Dawson, long-time chairman of this event. “Dan has done so much for our communities. He really and truly is a good scout, and is most deserving of this tribute. This will be a great event for him and the Boy Scouts.” Dan Reininga is a life–long resident of Chautauqua County. He was a Cub Scout in Dunkirk as a young boy.He graduated from Fredonia High School, then earned his bachelor degree in Economics from Allegheny College, and his MBA from the University of South Florida. He worked for the Talon Corporation for five years before he joined the team at Graf Realty in 1987, now being the Chairman of their board of directors. He has also been with Lake Shore Savings since 1994 in various positions, now serving as their President and CEO. This is Lake Shore Savings 125th anniversary in our communities.
Dan Reininga, the 2016 Good Scout Award recipient for 2016, is surrounded by congratulating scouts from Troop 267, sponsored by the Fredonia American Legion.
Dan is a well-known figure in Chautauqua County, and has been very involved in the community and many fundraising events.

Zucchini Pizza Boats
By Katy Wise Contributing Writer
Over the summer, we usually end up with an abundance of zucchini. I think it's safe to say that this is a family favorite of ours. Despite the few "but I don't think I like this..." comments that are made before actually trying it again. Our boys love veggies. But sometimes they need reminding. We love eating zucchini when it's simply roasted or grilled with some olive oil and pepper on top, but I am always on the lookout for new ways to incorporate this vegetable into our dinner menu. Last week it was all of a sudden dinner time and I was slightly unprepared. It's funny to me, because some of my best recipes have come from this! The pinch you find yourself in when you need to go grocery shopping, but try your best to be creative with what you already have. My only lead on what to make for dinner was that it somehow had to involve zucchini or some left over green beans that also needed to be used up.
I started the hunt for 'zucchini recipes' and spotted a picture of zucchini used as a pizza crust. Upon further inspection of our fridge, I saw that we had everything else needed to make this, score for mommy! I'll admit that I didn't even read the directions, except to see the temperature and approximate time. Between my husband and I, he
is the one who is far more likely to read directions. You could never fault him for not reading a map before going somewhere. Myself, on the other hand... Well, at least zucchini pizza didn't need that much guidance. It was easy, fast, and delicious! I did get one "mama, I don't think this is real pizza" comment, prior to the first bite.
This opinion was quickly replaced with a request for more pizza. Ingredients: • 3-4 Zucchinis • 1 can Pizza sauce • 1 C. Mozzarella cheese • Pepperoni (optional) • Pizza seasoning First and foremost, preheat

your oven to 400 degrees. Wash your zucchini, and slice in half the long way. Place zucchini cut side down on a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Prepare whatever pan you are going to use. I used a glass 9x13 Pyrex pan, sprayed with cooking spray, which worked beautifully. Line up zucchini halves in the pan, and top with pizza sauce. We used about half of a 14.5 ounce can. Top with cheese and pepperoni. I used about 8 slices of pepperoni cut into quarters. Sprinkle seasonings on top of pizza, and stick in the oven for about 20-25 minutes. Please note, this will take quite a while to cool down enough for eating. Maybe 15 minutes, but it is worth the wait! The zucchini was HOT. I cut each zucchini half into about 4 pieces to speed down cooking and make it easier for the boys to eat. Overall, this was a hit! Joshua has already asked for it again, and even Ellie liked it (cut into tiny one year old bites, of course.) As always, thanks for reading! Happy early zucchini season from hbk!

Earth Day Celebrated At Greystone Nature Preserve Contributed Article Julia Torres
Earth Day 2016 was celebrated at Greystone Nature Preserve with a ceremony centered on the contributions of trees. An enthusiastic delegation of SUNY Fredonia Students collectively represented the dozens of other students who have planted trees at the nature preserve over the past decade. An assortment of both deciduous and coniferous trees have been planted along Bear Lake Road as a living example of the students desire to give back in a natural way. Although many of them have moved on in life, they have literally put roots down in Chautauqua County. The Earth Day ceremony was meant to honor that community-nature feeling by dedicating a sign to be placed by the emerging grove of trees. The sign was made possible through a grant from Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation. The dedication of this sign touched the hearts of all the participants, as each one of them are in a specific field dedicated to connecting people to the natural world. A highlight of the ceremony was a meal that featured foods made by trees. Olivia Amzallag, treasurer of the GNP Board of Directors, provided a tree ingredient themed menu. Participants were able to sample over twenty foods whose source were primarily from trees including coffee, olives, figs, nuts, avocados, various fruits, maple syrup, apricot jam, and unique specialty Almond Flour Crackers. The meal was concluded with a delicious vegan chocolate finisher. Salt and Pepper Cracker Recipe created by Olivia Amzallag. (Photo by Diane Clark)

Volunteers are asked to wear green t-shirts, sweatshirts, or jackets to stand out to motorists. Volunteers are also encouraged to reduce, reuse, and recycle by wearing previous year’s Hands On Jamestown t-shirts. While litter collection is the easiest task to perform, volunteers can also pick up branches
and leaves, sweep sidewalks and curbs, or help with other community projects in the city. Volunteers are encouraged to bring their own hand tools and cloth gloves the day of the event because resources are limited. Garbage bags and rubber gloves will be available as well. Garbage and brush collected during Hands On Jamestown can be placed curbside downtown by 12:00 p.m. for pick up or it can be put out with weekly trash collection at home.

Fredonia Celebrates Nearly 1,400 Among its Class of 2016 Contributed Article Fredonia
President Virginia S. Horvath shook the hands of nearly 1,400 students in Steele Hall Arena today as they walked, one by one, across the stage to receive their diplomas and earn their President’s congratulations. Fredonia’s 189th annual Commencement ceremony included bachelor’s and master’s degree recipients, as well as those earning advanced certificates, honored during two ceremonies at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on campus. President Horvath presided over the ceremonies, joined by a more than 20-person platform party which included her fellow members of the University Cabinet, members of the College Council, Senior Class President Stephanie Willis, and other campus and community dignitaries and student leaders. “Faculty and staff here have worked to help you find your voice and your passion, and to develop your independence in thinking and responsible action,” Dr. Horvath told the graduates. “From this point, it’s up to you to show what Fredonians can do. Your employers, your communities, your families, will see that you are skilled, creative, connected, and responsible. We’re counting on you to use all you have learned, to continue to learn as new questions and technologies arise, and to represent your alma mater proudly in all you do.” She added, “The example of your lives is the best advocacy for a Fredonia education, but we count on you to assist those who will follow you. With continued hard work, you will be successful in your professions and your lives. As you advance in your careers, please help us recruit the best students, build the network

It enabled me to reflect on the passions I truly wanted to pursue, and it was there to teach and mold me into the person I was destined to become.” He also urged graduates to “repay your debt,” by “using your skills, education, resources, good health, and good fortune to make the global village a better place for all of us.” Student performances were given by the Fredonia Wind he Platform Party at the 2016 Commencement at the State University of New York at Fredonia.

Why Do We Celebrate Memorial Day? 6 Facts About The History Of The Holiday Contributed Article Tech Times
Memorial Day means a lot of things to a lot of different people. Some use the three-day weekend as an excuse to go on a little trip somewhere. Others may stay home to have a barbecue or check out one of this summer's blockbusters in movie theaters. Still, others might take advantage of one of the many sales offered during the weekend. However, Memorial Day was not created so you could frolic on the beach, stuff your face with all-you-can-eat ribs or get your summer wardrobe all set. There's a much more important reason why Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States. Memorial Day was originally created as a day of remembrance for those that were killed while fighting in the Civil War. Today, however, the holiday is used as a day to honor all Americans that have died while serving our country. Of course, what holiday hasn't lost its original meaning these days? Thanks, commercialization. But that just means we all have to work a little bit harder to understand the reasoning behind why you probably get a day off from work on Monday, May 25. However, it can be done, and the history of Memorial Day is laid out before you below. All of this isn't to say you can't still have fun on Memorial Day. You can. That's one thing the men and women that have served our nation fought for. However, they also deserve to be remembered as well. 1. It Wasn't Always Called Memorial Day When Memorial Day was originally created, it was actually called Decoration Day. On May 5, 1868, three years after the Civil War ended, Maj. Gen. John A. Logan, the head of the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization of Union veterans, called for the
creation of Decoration Day as a nationwide decorating of the graves of those who died in the war with flowers. During the first Decoration Day on May 30 of that year, Gen. James Garfield spoke at Arlington National Cemetery, and 5,000 observers decorated more than 20,000 Union and Confederate graves. 2. There Might Have Been Many First Memorial Days As is the case with many holidays, there is some controversy over when the first Memorial Day took place. Though Logan's Decoration Day declaration is widely accepted as the official start of the tradition, there were several smaller, local observances like it across the country after the Civil War. Yale University historian David Blight told TIME in 2009 that the first Memorial Day was held in April 1865 when a group of former slaves created a proper burial site for more than 250 Union soldiers at a Charleston, S.C. horse track. About 10,000 people gathered at Planters' Race Course on May 1 of that year to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers. The following year, a group of women in Columbus, Miss. decorated the graves of Confederate soldiers that died in battle at Shiloh. About 25 places across the U.S. have claimed to be connected to the origins of Memorial Day, according to the U.S. Department of Veteran
Affairs. 3. This Is The Official Birthplace Of Memorial Day Even though there is a dispute over where Memorial Day actually originated, President Lyndon B. Johnson and Congress declared Waterloo, N.Y. the official birthplace of Memorial Day, and no one can take that away from the city in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Waterloo earned this distinction because a local pharmacist named Henry C. Welles came up with the idea to place flowers on the graves of those who fought in the Civil War in the summer of 1865. Gen. John B. Murray eventually helped Welles organize the memorial, which took place on May 5, 1866. The celebration was held every year after that. 4. It Took A Long Time To Make It A Federal Holiday Though Memorial Day began as a way to honor those who died while serving in the Civil War, once the U.S. became embroiled in World War I and subsequent wars, the holiday expanded to honor the fallen in any conflict, according to TIME. The name of the holiday was also changed to Memorial Day around the time of World War I. Memorial Day celebrations had always taken place on May 30, the date of the
first one organized by Logan in 1868. However,Congress signed the Uniform Monday Holiday Act of 1968, which mandated that Memorial Day would be one of four holidays observed on a Monday (the other three are George Washington's birthday, Labor Day and Columbus Day). Congress declared Memorial Day a national holiday to be observed on the last Monday of May in 1971. 5. Some States Have Confederate Observances During Memorial Day's early years, it was closely linked to the Union, and for that reason, many southern states didn't celebrate the holiday, according to TIME. That all changed once Memorial Day expanded to honor those that died while fighting in any American war. However, some southern states, such as Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, have a separate Memorial Day celebration just to honor Confederate soldiers today, according to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs. 6. This Is How We Celebrate Memorial Day Today Just like in 1868, a national Memorial Day observance continues to be held at Arlington National Cemetery annually. During this ceremony, the president speaks and lays a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment, also known as the Old Guard, also places little American flags at the gravesites of service members buried at Arlington National Cemetery on the Thursday before Memorial Day every year. All Americans are also supposed to pause for a minute of silence at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day to pay tribute to the men and women who died while serving the nation. Congress instituted this practice in 2000 with the passage of The National Moment of Remembrance Act, so this is one Memorial Day activity that is actually the law.

Some people gather wild plants to eat for survival, others to save on the grocery bill. Foraging can also be a wonderful way to spend time outside, learn plant identification, try new foods, and strengthen your connection to the earth and the food it produces to nourish our bodies. On Thursday evening, June 2, you can learn to identify late spring/early summer greens, flowers and other wild edibles at the Audubon Nature Center’s “Edible Audubon - Spring into Summer ” workshop. At the 6-8 p.m. class participants will discover how to recognize edible plants and distinguish them from those that may look similar. After reviewing some basic ground rules and safety considerations about harvesting wild edibles, the class will head outside to identify those growing and blooming in the late spring/early summer. Also covered will be some popular plants you definitely do not want to eat. Back inside, participants will taste samples and discuss easy ways to make wild plants part their meals. Instructor Katie Finch is a naturalist at Audubon who has been enthusiastically eating “weeds” for several years. This class includes a walk up to one mile on flat ground. Remember to dress for the weather. The fee is $20; $16 for

Jamestown DAR Presents Good Citizens Awards Contributed Article Jamestown DAR
Students from area school districts were selected to receive the annual Jamestown National Society of Daughters of American Revolution awards. The presentation was recently held at the historic DAR house on Prospect Street in the city. Linda Lucas, local Regent of the DAR, welcomed all to the presentation, which included students, parents and friends. In her opening remarks, Regent Lucas explained that the DAR had its beginnings in 1890 in Washington, with the Jamestown Chapter being formed in 1900. Out of the many community projects, student recognition is one of their projects. DAR members Arlene Christopherson and Sharoyn Ruby served as the committee for the program. Mrs. Christopherson led all in the pledge of allegiance. She then explained that the criteria for being selected was based on dependability, service, leadership and patriotism.

Ryan Swanson had a marvelous playing career at St. Bonaventure from 20042008. He won a tournament as a junior. He compiled 19 rounds of par or better. He shot seven rounds in the 60’s. His round of 67 in 2008 is tied for the second best in school history, as is his 36-hole total of 69-68-137 from 2006. His 54-hole total of 71-69-68-208 as a sophomore still stands as a school record. Those are stellar numbers however you break it down. Swanson is a Sherman native and current owner/operator of Pinehurst Golf Course in Westfield along with his brother, Nolan. As of this past season, he is also the St. Bonaventure men’s golf head coach. “My former coach had contacted me over the course of the last six or seven years,” Swanson shared. “He asked if I had any ideas or if I knew anybody. I said that I’m kind of sick of seeing the position change hands so often and that if I can somehow work it out with my schedule, that I would be interested. After talking with my wife and Nolan, we decided I should give it a try. They were happy to have me and I was happy to go.” Having played not just Division I golf, but DI golf at the same school, Swanson had a very good idea of what he was getting into. “I knew what to expect just from seeing what my coach used to do on a week-toweek basis,” Swanson continued. “The recruiting process is a totally different story. I’m still trying to get my head wrapped around that. “Nolan has been through it when he was

coaching,” he added. “My former coach’s office is right downstairs from mine. I lean on him a lot in terms of that. Honestly, college golf is something everyone wants to play. I get dozens of emails every day from kids all over. I’d like to gobble up as much local talent as possible. I think we can field a pretty strong team.” Swanson came to the new position with some coaching experience under his belt, but found there are definitely differences between jayvee high school basketball and DI golf. “Some good, some bad,” he said with laugh. “Guys at this level know what they need to do. They don’t need me to tell them everything. I’m there to push them in the right direction. I’m finding it difficult with practice times and getting the team all together at once. It’s still coach-
ing and I still enjoy it.” The program has seen a lot of coaching turnover in recent years and as a result, hasn’t been as competitive as it was in Swanson’s playing days. Swanson is eager to bring winning back to St. Bonaventure. “I’m happy with the progress we made this year,” he said. “I had three seniors that went to every tournament this spring. They won’t be back so we’re going to be young. We have one senior. My junior-to-be just qualified for the U.S. Open Sectionals. Hopefully this is a big summer for him. “Obviously the results lie in my guys’ hands and how they play,” Swanson continued. “I can’t really change defenses or CONTINUED ON PAGE 31

SPORTS COMMENTARY, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 Yes, it’s true. It was an honest mistake. Of course I would have put Yogi on had I remembered. He was on my mind from the start, but for some reason I panicked on No. 8. If you recall, I nearly forgot Cal Ripken Jr. as well and had to edit him in after the fact. I’ll try to be better, but I can’t promise I won’t miss more easy ones as this list continues. Let’s continue, shall we? No. 10: Walt “Clyde” Frazier, NBA — New York Knicks great Frazier was named a member of the NBA’s 50th Anniversary Team, was a seven-time All Star and a two-time NBA champion. In the running: Chipper Jones, MLB — Jones is one of those rare players that played their entire careers with one team. The Atlanta Brave great is one of the top three switch hitters of all time. Fran Tarkenton, NFL — He played 18 years in the NFL and threw 342 touchdown passes. Ron Francis, NHL — His 25-year career saw Francis accumulate 1,175 points, three Bing Trophies, a Selke and a Clancy. No. 11: Mark Messier, NHL — I imagine most people would have Messier in the top 10 players in NHL history. He won six Stanley Cups and is second to only the immortal Wayne Gretzky on the all-time scoring list. Him holding up the Cup after helping the Rangers end their 54-year championship drought is one of the NHL’s most iconic images. In the running: Isiah Thomas, NBA — Zeke was a staple on the Bad Boys teams in Detroit. He averaged 19.2 points and 9.3 assists per game over his career. No. 12: Tom Brady, NFL —No quarterback has been to more Super Bowls than Brady’s six. He’s won four of those. He’s also picked up two MVP awards, 11 Pro Bowl appearances and 13 division titles. He’s currently third in career touchdown passes (428). In the running: John Stockton, NBA — The league’s all-time leader in both assists and steals, Stockton was a wizard at the point guard position for the Utah Jazz for two decades. Terry Bradshaw, NFL — Certainly overlooked, the Steelers signal caller is one of football’s greatest winners. Joe Namath, NFL — Famous on and off the field, Namath made sports’ greatest guarantee when he called the Jets’ win in Super Bowl III. No. 13: Alex Rodriguez, MLB — Yikes. This turned out to be a tough number, but perhaps nothing in sports is as revered as the home run as A-Rod is closing in on 700 for his career. He has MVP awards, 14 All Star appearances and a whole lot of controversy. Another player who might not be liked, but the stats are hard to overlook. In the running: Wilt Chamberlain, NBA — Wilt The Stilt might just be the most unstoppable force the NBA has ever seen and collected four MVP awards. He is the only player to ever score 100 points in a single game. Dan Marino, NFL — The league’s greatest quarterback to have never won a Super Bowl, his 1986 season stands as one of the greatest ever. Pavel Datsyuk, NHL — He has 914 career points and is a three-time Selke award winner as the league’s top defensive forward. No. 14: Pete Rose, MLB — Apparently this portion of the list is going to be filled with players ripe with controversy. Gambling issues aside, Rose’s career accomplishments are unrivaled. The game’s all-time hit king eclipsed legend Ty Cob for the most ever with 4,256. He also won three World Series, a pair of Gold Gloves and was an All Star 17 times. In the running: Bob Cousy, NBA — Led the league in assists for eight straight seasons from 1952-53 to 1959-60. Cousy still ranks No. 16 in career assists nearly 60 years after his career ended. Ernie Banks, MLB — “Mr. Cub” clubbed 512 career home runs while winning a pair of MVP awards despite never making the playoffs. No. 15: Bart Starr, NFL — This actually seems to be a relatively weak number, but Starr is a major reason why Green Bay has the nickname of “Titletown” as he helped the Packers win five championships (the first two Super Bowls and three NFL Championships). In the running: Joe Torre, MLB — One of the few men in history to have a great player career AND a great coaching career. Torre won the NL MVP in 1971 and was a nine-time All Star on the field. On the bench, Torre led the Yankees to four World Series
Mark Messier won Stanley Cups and a place as the greatest No. 11 in sports history. (AP Photo)
titles in five years from 1996-2000. No. 16: Joe Montana, NFL — When it comes to playoff prowess, it’s hard to top Montana, who led San Francisco to four Super Bowl titles. He’s on the short list of greatest quarterbacks ever. In the running: Brett Hull, NHL — He wore other numbers during his career, but it was his 10-year stint with Blues wearing No. 16 that makes him a legend. Hull scored 741 goals, good for fourth most ever (he was third, but Jaromir Jagr passed him this season). No. 17: John Havlicek, NBA — Another less-than-stellar showing for No. 17, but “Hondo” won eight NBA championships, which is a hard stat to argue against. Havlicek was a 13-time All Star and actually retired as the NBA’s career leader in games played. In the running: Dizzy Dean, MLB — Dean had a season to remember in 1934 when he won both the MVP award after winning 30 games. His St. Louis Cardinals also won the World Series that season. No. 18: Peyton Manning, NFL — Here’s a number that needed no research. Manning owns just about every major career passing record including his 71,940 yards and 539 touchdowns. He just retired after winning a second Super Bowl and has a strong argument as the best quarterback of all time. In the running: Dave Cowen, NBA — While not a household name, the Boston Celtics center averaged 17.6 points and 13.6 rebounds per game over his 11-season career. No. 19: Steve Yzerman, NHL — This idea started because of Tony Gwynn, but No. 19 has to go to Yzerman, who played 22 seasons for the Detroit Red Wings, scored 692 goals and won three Stanley Cups from 1997-2002. He’s the sixth leading scorer in NHL history. In the running: Gwynn, MLB — He of 3,141 hits and a .338 lifetime batting average, Gwynn averaged just 29 strikeouts per 162 games. Johnny Unitas, NFL — “Johnny U” held the record for most consecutive games with a touchdown for 52 years before Drew Brees broke it in 2012. He led the league in touchdowns in four straight seasons.

SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO BE A "BRAVE SOUL" By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor
Thursday was gorgeous. It was objectively the warmest, most beautiful day of the 2016 calendar year. It was the perfect day to golf. Sadly, I couldn’t get out of the office on Thursday. Friday was fairly miserable. It was cold. It was overcast. It was windy. Fortunately, Bryan and I were able to get out and golf on Friday. Therefore, I can say with certainty that the following mathematical statement is true: Friday > Thursday. When you show up to the course and the owner calls you a “brave soul” for getting out for a round, you know the weather isn’t cooperating. To be fair, the rain held off. Bryan and I were able to get a perfectly pleasant nine holes in. Yes the grass was wet from plenty of rain, but we were just happy to get out. So how did my second round of the season go? I’m so glad I asked. Well…it was nearly identical to my first. I ended up with the same score (47) and seven of nine holes were the same score. I’m nothing if not consistent I suppose. If I can take one thing from my first two rounds, it’s my use of the driver. On Friday it was even better than last week. I only had one drive that I didn’t hit completely solidly, but even that one got some nice distance, I just hit it on a bit of a higher trajectory than I would normally prefer. If there is one thing I need to work on after two rounds, it’s my short game. Anything within 100 yards has been a bumpy road so far (hence to pair of scores higher than I’m used to despite great driving). It’s entirely a distance thing with the pitching wedge and/or 9-iron. I’ve come up short. I’ve gone over. That’s probably something that’ll come back to me as I get more swings in this season. So let’s take a quick look at the round itself. I went to Hillview Golf Course in Fredonia with Bryan. It was his first time out this season. He has his last final on Tuesday, so I have high hopes that we can start doing two-a-weeks before too long. Honestly, his game came back pretty quickly. Of course he struggled off the tee on the first few holes. Who doesn’t? After that though, he hit some really

nice hybrid shots and his putting was pretty on line, too. Considering how wet everything was and neither of us were getting any roll at all on any of our shots, I thought we both played pretty well. My worst hole came on No. 3. I hit a beautiful drive that I thought was going right down the middle of the fairway, but ended up just off the fairway to the right. Great start, right? That’s what I thought as well. On my second shot however, my club got slowed down by the thicker grass and I got absolutely no power on the shot. Sure enough, it came up extremely short of the green. Then my chip was just terrible. Not only did I not hit it straight, but I hit it too far and ended up on the back of the green. My first three-putt of the season left with a double bogey after a really nice drive. Gross. My best hole was once again No. 6. I got my first par of the season on that hole last time out and matched the feat this time out. This was the site of my lessthan-perfect drive, but I more than made up for it by totally crushing my hybrid to within 100 yards. For the only time in the round, I actually hit greens in regulation when I dropped my pitching wedge shot right into the middle of the green. Unfortunately, the pin was about as far left as it could get. Oh well. Two
putts gave me a par and had me feeling great. I have to say, No. 9 is a tough hole. It’s a 236-yard par three. Most casual golfers can’t drive the ball that far, let alone actually hit the green from that far out. The green isn’t the easiest one out there either with a front-to-back slope to it. Maybe it’s the fact that it’s the last hole on the course that compounds the issue, but man I don’t see many pars coming on that one this season. It’s far from the hardest par 3 I’ve played. That honor of course goes to No. 8 at Cassadaga Country Club. At least I go don’t go into Hillview knowing I’m almost certainly going to get a ‘7’ on the scorecard. I write this every week and I’ll continue to, but if you know of any charity tournaments that you feel are worthy of an article in the Chautauqua Star, please let me know. In fact, I’m probably looking to play in a tournament or two this year, so if your team needs one or two more guys, let me know that as well. As always, golf is great. Go get some.

Concord Plays Southwestern To 1-1 Tie Contributed Article Concord FC U14
Concord FC U14 Boys and the team from the Southwestern Club played to a 1-1 tie on Sunday evening in a blustery and sometimes snowy game. Concord scored first on a long left-footed shot from midfielder Liam Jones in the 19th minute. The half ended with Concord up 1-0. Southwestern came out strong in the second half scoring in the 40th minute on a bouncing shot from Max Vaugh. Not long after, Southwestern had a chance to take the lead on a perfectly placed penalty shot, but the attempt was stopped by an equally amazing save by Concord goalkeeper Tyler Rosen. Concord was able to find a rhythm later in the second half and applied significant pressure and took several shots but none finding the net. Concord plays next at home against Bradford at 4:00 p.m. in Dunkirk at Holy Trinity.

Sherman, Danahy Named All SUNYAC Contributed Article FSU Sports Information Dept.
Fredonia seniors Kyle Sherman (North Collins, N.Y. / North Collins) and Quinn Danahy (Buffalo, N.Y. / Bishop Timon) were named to the All SUNYAC baseball team the conference office announced on Monday. Sherman was named First Team at shortstop. He started all 18 SUNYAC contests and hit .387. He was tops in the league in at bats (75) and hits (29). He put together a solid year in the field as well with a .937 fielding percentage. Overall, Sherman hit .317 (44 for 139) with five doubles as the team's leadoff hitter. He was first on the Blue Devils with 26 runs and tied for second with 19 RBI. He added 15 walks and five hit by pitches to finish with a .400 on-base percentage. "Kyle never really had a defined role last year, but showed up every day with enthusiasm and worked hard." said head coach Matt Palisin. "As the season went on this year, he kept getting better and was the glue to our team. He was the captain of our infield as the shortstop, and eventually took over the role as our leadoff hitter and solidified our offense. He took all the pressure off the players around him and allowed them to perform better. He had a great season for us." Sherman attended Erie Community College for two seasons before transferring to Fredonia. His brother, Vinnie, played for the Blue Devils last season. Danahy was named Second Team as an outfielder. In 17 conference games, he batted .370 (27 for 73) with 14 RBI and 11 runs. Overall, he batted .359 and set the team's at-bat record of 155, breaking Jordan Basile's standard of 150 set in 2009. Danany also finished with 55 hits, third all-time to Basile (63) and Josh Greco (56), both set in 2009. Danahy's .359 average was third on the team this

year. As a junior, he batted .360 and finished his fouryear career with a .339 average (91 for 268). Academically, Danahy was inducted into the Chi Alpha Sigma for earning a 3.4 or better GPA. Danahy was also one of two senior athletes chosen to address the senior class at this past Sunday's Senior Gala. "Quinn was an invaluable part of our program," said head coach Matt Palisin. "He put up numbers on the field, but off the field, I have not met a more humble person. Over his four seasons here, a lot of people got to know who Quinn Danahy is. He's been a great ambassador not just for our baseball program, but for our entire athletics department." The Devils had a few other outstanding performances and milestones this year. Two players were named SUNYAC Players of the Week -- Danahy and Liam Kelly and senior Zachary Jordon earned Pitcher of the Week recognition.
Junior Ciro Frontale (Syracuse, N.Y. / Bishop Ludden) led the nation with a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage in 143 total chances at second base. For good measure, he made a diving stop to preserve freshman Ben Atkinsons' no-hitter at Bethany. Jordon (Akron, N.Y./ Akron) finished his career with 16 wins, second only to Andy Dlugosz who had 18 wins from 2008-2011. Jordon was also second in career innings pitched (177) and third in strikeouts (120), behind Sean Larson (132 from 2011-2014) and Dlugosz (121). As a team, the Devils rank 28th nationally in fielding percentage. The also received points on the d3baseball.com national poll earlier this season. Through the mid-way point of the season, they ranked No.1 in all of DIII in strength of schedule. The team had eight games against Top 10 opponents, and also played the No. 21 team in Division II.
SWANSON, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 25 do much once they’re out there. All I can do is steer them in the right direction. You want to be in contention at the end of April at our conference championships. This year we weren’t, but going forward that’s what we’ll be working for. That’s the goal of all of our guys – the chance to win.” Combining coaching with running Pinehurst is something that Swanson sees as getting easier as time goes by. “It put a strain on Nolan for sure,” he admitted. “April was rough. The weather was shoddy. I was here as much as I could be, but I was gone for three weekends in April. September will probably be a bit of the same. Going forwards, however, I can set our tournament schedule however I want. I can set the schedule up to benefit things around (Pinehurst) a little bit.” The plan for the summer is pretty simple. Swanson’s players are setting up their own schedules in terms of tournaments and they have a workout program from
the school’s strength and conditioning coaches that they’re supposed to do two or three times a week. “They just keep me posted and I’m happy with that,” Swanson noted. “I found out that 75 percent of this job is being a travel agent,” Swanson only half joked. “The guys know what to expect out of me. The goal is to get them to take more responsibility for what they’re doing, to work on their games and become a little more independent. “I’m happy,” he concluded. “This is something I’ve always wanted to do.” More information on the St. Bonaventure golf program can be found at gobonnies.sbu.edu and by following @BonniesGolf on Twitter.

Bills’ Lawson To Have Shoulder Surgery By John Wawrow AP Sports Writer
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) -- Buffalo Bills officials say first-round draft pick Shaq Lawson will have surgery on his right shoulder and wide receiver Sammy Watkins had an operation for one of his feet. A person familiar with Watkins' injury said Monday it is a small stress fracture. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Bills did not reveal details of Watkins' injury. Watkins is expected to be ready for the start of training camp in July. The Bills say Lawson, the 19th pick in last month's NFL draft, tweaked the shoulder last week and would undergo a procedure on Tuesday. Lawson, a defensive end with Clemson who plans to move to linebacker, insisted after the draft he wouldn't need surgery to fix a problem he's played with for years. Bills general manager Doug Whaley says Lawson is forsaking personal goals to be 100 percent healthy when the team needs him most. After the announcement, Lawson tweeted: ''God got a plan for me, be back better than ever,'' with the hashtag (hash)wishmewell.

Major League Soccer teams began selling jersey sponsorships in 2007, and several clubs each generate more than $6 million annually in revenues from ads on the front of jerseys.

''Their current spot in the standings is largely irrelevant to us because we're in this for the long term,'' Cutler said.

Lake Erie Fishing Hotline Contributed Article NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation
The special black bass season is in effect on Lake Erie and its tributaries up to the first impassible barrier only. Anglers can use natural/live bait and can keep one bass per day, with a minimum size limit of 20 inches. Bass fishing on all other waters in western New York is by catch and release only, artificial lures only, until the 3rd Saturday in June. Tiger muskellunge season also opens on May 7th on the inland waters where they occur. Tiger muskellunge remains closed on Lake Erie, Niagara River and Lake Ontario until the 3rd Saturday in June. Lake Erie and Harbors Opening weekend walleye anglers reported plenty of walleye in the typical shallows at night, but fish were tight lipped. Mid-week outings were more productive. Look for the nighttime bite to pick up with rising water temperatures. Good nearshore shoals/shallows to try include Shorehaven Reef, Bournes Beach, Green Hills, Van Buren Bay, Evans Bar and the area between Hoak's Restaurant and the windmills. The typical nighttime program involves trolling in 6-15 feet of water with shallow diving stickbaits or worm harnesses over rocky areas. If the shoal bite is slow, trolling or bottom bouncing in deeper areas off the spawning shoals is worth a shot. The smallmouth bass bite is heating up in Dunkirk and Buffalo Harbors. Open lake bass fishing has been slow. For more information see the Smallmouth Bass Fishing on Lake Erie page. Yellow perch fishing continues to be very slow. Yesterday, many boats returned to Sturgeon Point empty handed. Some anglers were catching fair numbers of perch around Seneca Shoal. Live emerald shiners are the top perch bait, and work best when fished close to the bottom. Many successful Lake Erie perch anglers employ a fluorocarbon rig (See description of rig below and diagram on right, provided by a seasoned Erie perch angler). Emerald shiners are available for dipping at harbor and inlet sites around the upper Niagara River. If you are dipping bait for use on Lake Erie, be sure you stay within the Designated Overland Transportation Corridor. Double Fluorocarbon Perch Rig: Tie a 6 foot section of 6 pound test fluorocarbon line onto the main line using a surgeon's knot. Slide a #6 Aberdeen hook onto fluorocarbon line to 3 foot from end, and tie a double overhand knot, leaving a 1.5 inch loop with hook attached. Slide a second hook onto the line to 12-15 inches below the first hook and secure same as first hook. Attach a 1 or 2 ounce sinker, 1215 inches below the bottom hook. Lake Erie Tributaries
There may still be some steelhead stragglers in Cattaraugus Creek, but smallmouth bass are now the main draw on all of the tributaries. Erie County stream levels came up following last nights rainstorm, making them a decent smallmouth bass option for the weekend. Chautauqua County streams remain low and clear. Woolly buggers and minnow imitation patterns are good bass offerings for fly anglers, and spinning anglers generally do well with stickbaits, natural baits or jigs with grubs fished under a float. The lower section of Cattaraugus Creek is a good spot to target channel catfish. Nightcrawlers, chicken livers, raw shrimp or cut bait fished on the bottom works well, especially at night. The deeper holes in the other tribs may hold some catfish as well. Anglers can also catch catfish along the Lake Erie shoreline on calm nights, especially near stream inlets. Upper Niagara River With water temperatures now just over the 50 degree mark, look for an improved bass and panfish bite along the river shorelines. Harbor, bay and slack water areas are also a good bet for a mix of bass, sunfish and perch. Bass fishing is by catch and release only, artificial lures only in the Niagara River north of the Peace Bridge, until the regular season opens on third Saturday of June. Chautauqua Lake Over the first week of walleye season, anglers report many walleye in the shallows at night, but few are biting. Boaters can slow troll along weedlines with stickbaits and worm harnesses, or drift and work jigs with nightcrawlers or leeches. Shore anglers can connect by casting stickbaits, especially in areas near stream inlets. Yellow perch fishing has been very good along weed lines, with live minnows working best. The crappie bite has been tapering off, but anglers are still catching some near dawn and dusk on small jigs with minnows or small plastics.
Inland Trout Fishing Area streams are in good shape with moderate flows. Depending on the stream, look for hatches of hendricksons, blue winged olives, caddisflies or March browns. Productive offerings for spinning anglers include worms, salted minnows and small inline spinners. If you are a catch-and-release anglers and use spinners, it is good practice to outfit your spinners with a single hook rather than a treble hook. Western New York anglers have a variety of Wild Trout Streams and Stocked Trout Streams to choose from. In addition, Public Fishing Rights Maps are available for many of the region's best trout streams. Check out the Fishing For Stream Trout page for introductory information on trout baits, lures, fishing equipment and techniques. Spring Trout Stocking All of Region 9's trout stocking waters have been stocked. Hatchery staff are now delivering additional stocking increments to the larger and more popular area waters. Anglers can call the Randolph Hatchery Fish Stocking Hotline at (716) 358-4950 or check back here for weekly stocking updates. For County lists of stocked waters and numbers of trout stocked, check the 2016 Spring Trout Stocking pages. The following waters will receive an additional stocking increment between 5/16 and 5/20. Allegany County: Dyke Creek (Andover), Cryder Creek (Independence), California Hollow Brook (Bolivar), Little Genesee Creek (Bolivar). Cattaraugus Creek: Elton Creek (Freedom). Wyoming County: East Koy Creek (Gainesville). If you need more fishing information or would like to contribute to the fishing report, please call or email Mike Todd (716-851-7010; michael.todd@dec. ny.gov). Good Luck Fishing!

Mullinax Wins Rex Hospital Open For First Title Associated Press
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Trey Mullinax won the Rex Hospital Open on Sunday for his first Web.com Tour title, shooting a 3-under 68 for a two-stroke victory over Brady Schnell. ''It's unbelievable. I still can't believe it. It hasn't hit me, but it will,'' said Mullinax, five strokes behind Schnell with nine holes left. ''This year hasn't been long, but it's been hard on me, dealing with expectations and being able to come out here and just have a free attitude and do what I need to do.'' The 23-year-old former Alabama player finished at 14-under 270 at TPC Wakefield Plantation. He earned $117,000 to jump from 33rd to fourth on the money list with $154,486. The top 25 at the end of the regular season will earn PGA Tour cards for next season. ''I think winning kind of changes some things. When you win, it changes your whole year. You can take off, but I don't feel like I want to even take off,'' Mullinax said. ''I'm playing well. I've got a good attitude. I'm enjoying what I'm doing and I really just want to keep doing this.'' After playing the front nine in 2 over, Mullinax birdied the next three holes and chipped in from 20 feet for eagle on the par-5 15th. ''I got it up there real close to the green and had a pretty easy chip,'' Mullinax said about the eagle. ''In my mind, I thought I could make it and when I chipped it, it kind of took a good bounce to the hole and it went in.'' He two-putted from 45 feet for par on the par-4 18th. ''I got up there, and the crowd was obviously having a good time, and some guy yelled, 'If you two putt this, you'll win,''' Mullinax said. ''I thought, 'Hey, thanks buddy.' As if this wasn't hard enough.''' Schnell shot a 72. He bogeyed the final two holes, three-putting from 50 feet on

the par-4 17th and hitting into the back bunker on 18. ''Looking back on it, probably tried to make too many pars and got a little conservative and a little gun shy with some shots out there,'' Schnell said. ''Just kept leaving myself with too long of putts, too long of opportunities coming in.'' JT Poston had a 69 to finish third at 11 under. Cameron Percy (67) and Dominic Bozzelli (73) followed at 10 under.
76ers Win Lottery, Lakers Will Pick Second By Brian Mahoney AP Basketball Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Philadelphia 76ers have lost big for three years, when they appeared to value draft picks more than players. They got a huge victory Tuesday night, and maybe the wins on the court will soon follow. The 76ers won the NBA draft lottery, giving them the No. 1 selection in June. ''The pain that we've all gone through, the pain of losing is real. You can't camouflage it,'' said coach Brett Brown, who represented the 76ers on stage. ''The city has been incredibly patient, tolerant, choose any word you want. I think this validates some of the pain we went through.'' The Los Angeles Lakers finished second but also felt like winners, as they would have dealt their pick to Philadelphia had they fallen out of the top three. The Boston Celtics, with a pick dealt to them by the Brooklyn Nets, remained in the No. 3 slot.
Nobody moved up in the lottery, which sets the top three picks. The remainder of the 14 teams are slotted in the inverse order of their won-loss record. The 76ers finished 10-72, just off the worst record in the history of the 82-game schedule, and had a 26.9 percent chance of landing the No. 1 pick (their own 25 percent chance, and Sacramento's 1.9 percent chance, since the 76ers had the right to swap picks with the Kings from a previous trade.) They would have garnered another top-five selection had the Lakers tumbled a couple of spots, since they would have been entitled to the pick the Lakers originally dealt to Phoenix for Steve Nash that the 76ers later acquired in another trade. ''It's been a long year,'' Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak said. ''Because of the contingencies of the deal, there was a significant chance we would lose the pick. That would have been disappointing. We would have gotten over it and moved on to the summer, but that would have been disappointing.'' Philadelphia certainly won't complain, not after doing no better than No. 3 in the previous two drafts
during a three-year process where the focus was more on building for the future than trying to win in the present. ''We can now make the decision all by ourselves,'' said Brown, who is 47-199 in his three seasons. ''We don't have to wait and see what someone else does. It gives us the injection we need.''

Larson Races Clean at the Expense of His First Cup Win By Jenna Fryer AP Auto Racing Writer
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- It might be hard to believe that the ending of a low-level race three years ago had such a profound effect on Kyle Larson that it might have cost him his first Sprint Cup victory. Larson was the next big thing when he arrived at Daytona International Speedway in 2013 for his first full season at NASCAR's national level. He entered a silly companion race dubbed the ''Battle of the Beach'' with every expectation to have some fun in the event. When he found himself trailing C.E. Falk III on the final lap, he first tried to move him out of his way before ultimately spinning him to steal the win. He was booed and rebuked on Twitter by many of NASCAR's biggest names. By the end of the week, Larson said, he realized the trophy was not worth the perception of being a dirty driver. ''I got a lot of criticism for that and people lost a lot of respect for me for that,'' Larson told The Associated Press in an interview a week after that late model race. ''I care because people who are huge backers of me and said I'm the greatest driver ever, now one incident and all of a sudden I am the worst race car driver ever. That's not how I race. I did what I thought I had to do to win the race. Looking back, I made a mistake in how I went about it. I wouldn't go back and not try to win the race, but I would probably do something a little different.'' Fast forward to Sunday when Larson found himself in a furious battle with Matt Kenseth at Dover International Speedway. Kenseth has 37 career Sprint Cup victories, a championship and drives for the best team in NASCAR. Larson has no wins, has never qualified for NASCAR's championship and drives for a team that only occasionally finds its drivers out front. So there he was, on more than one occasion in the closing laps, with Kenseth in his reach. No matter how hard he tried to make a pass for the lead stick, Larson came up empty again and again. He had one option left: a bump-and-run, a solid shot to Kenseth's bumper to move him out of his way. Larson didn't make the move. A day later, he had no regrets. ''I thought I did everything I could to get by him as cleanly as possible,'' Larson told AP on Monday. ''I would have had to get into him (to get by) and I didn't want to do that. I hope he respects me for the way I raced him and if that situation comes up again, he'll race me the same way I raced him.'' Larson absolutely thinks he had an opportunity to move Kenseth, but that lesson learned three years ago at Daytona has clearly made an impact. ''I've done it in the past (moved a driver), and one time was really bad,'' Larson

said. ''It's definitely not something I'm proud of and I learned from that. That's why I race the way that I do now.'' Now we all get to see if being a nice guy costs Larson this year. Remember, he is winless in 87 Cup starts, and if making the Chase is the barometer for a successful season, Larson is still on an uphill climb. Kenseth teammate Denny Hamlin said Larson will ''absolutely'' regret not being more aggressive for the win, and he likened it to when Hamlin was seeking his first career victory at Richmond and chasing Dale Earnhardt Jr. ''I remember being right on his bumper with two laps to go thinking, 'I can get my first win right here at my home track,''' Hamlin said. ''And I chose not to move him out of the way. Lucky for him, unfortunate for me. That one haunted me for quite a while. I'm sure it will for Kyle as well.'' He didn't seem too bothered on Monday, and maybe that is because he's got the confidence in himself and his Chip Ganassi Racing team that he'll get another shot at a win. He was able to look himself in the mirror after racing Kenseth and knowing he did not make an enemy Sunday. Larson's problem going forward is that he can't let his rivals think he will roll over every time. --AP Sports Writer Mike Marot in Indianapolis contributed to this report.
NBA DRAFT, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 34 Their win certainly won't quiet those believers in lottery conspiracies, as former 76ers center Dikembe Mutombo - who works for the NBA as a global ambassador - accidentally tweeted congratulations on their victory about four hours earlier. He sent a subsequent tweet saying he was just excited but was keeping his fingers crossed. ''I want to let people know there was no conspiracy,'' Mutombo told The Associated Press in a phone inter-
view, saying it was a mistake and that he thought ''a lot of people understood the error that was made.'' Lottery night was always going to be the highlight of this season for the 76ers, who started it on a freefall that never stopped. They started 0-18, finishing a 28-game skid dating to 2014-15, en route to a 10-72 record that was just a game better than the all-time worst in an 82-game season. They never attempted to put a competitive team on
the court under general manager Sam Hinkie, who resigned in April after overseeing a plan to accumulate draft picks but not wins. They also have the 24th and 26th picks in the first round, and their young players are expected to be joined perhaps next season by Joel Embiid and Dario Saric, who were previously drafted by Hinkie but haven't played in the NBA, with Embiid sidelined by foot injuries and Saric remaining in Europe.
