NCCC hosts 18th annual Tech Wars Competition

By Rebecca Gunning LOCKPORT STAR EDITOR

On Wednesday, Jan. 14, Niagara County Community College hosted its 18th annual Tech Wars Competition. Nearly 30 school districts from all over Western New York visited the campus to compete in 21 different engineering and technology events, with Cleveland Hill High School being crowned the 2015 Tech War Champions.

The event was open to students in grades 6 through 12, with middle school and high school

divisions in many of the competitions.

Eighteen years ago when Tech Wars first began, there was one event with students from three schools. This year’s competition had around 700 students registered.

There is a wide array of events, ranging from the amount of weight a wooden bridge can hold to robots building towers to windmill construction.

One of the most anticipated ones is the Sumo Bot competition, which high school students build 20-pound robots to face off against each other.

“These things are built from scratch by the students,” explained Mark Voisinet, an instructor at NCCC who has been involved with Tech Wars since 2000. “They’re starting with raw materials and doing everything from mechanical construction of it to all of the mounting of electronic components to all the programing and wiring that needs to be done in order to run the robots.”

Another event that saw many participants was the Cardboard Boat Regatta.

In this competition, students must construct a boat REBECCA GUNNING

They then must be able to row it from one end of NCCC’s pool to the other and back. The oars also can only be created with cardboard and duct tape.

“That’s one of the competitions where you see a wide array of very well done and thought-out projects as compared to the occasional refrigerator box with some duct tape holding it together,” said Voisinet with a laugh.

One of the teams that

participated in the regatta was a team of four girls from Sweet Home High School, who wore squid hats and made a boat that looked like a whale. The girls’ team is made up of senior Allie Perfetto, freshman Alyssa Duffy, junior Madeline Bell, and her sister Alison, a freshman, and wound up finishing in third place.

Voisinet found the allgirl team to be encouraging and follows the trend of more girls developing an interest in S.T.E.M.

(Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) fields.

“We’re just starting to see a little more growth with women coming into our technology programs,” he explained. “There’s absolutely nothing in technology that a woman can’t do as well, if not better, than a man.”

Just as a society and as a country, we need more people to come into the S.T.E.M. fields.�

NCCC’s Tech Wars is the perfect event to get students excited about those fields of study while at the same time learning a great deal. Students spend weeks and even months preparing for the events, in hopes of placing in the top three in their competition. “This event affords the opportunity to have very tangible projects with very tangible goals, and the students are able to apply their engineering, technology and scientific knowledge toward these projects,� Voisinet said.

While some of the competitions see hours of work destroyed in mere seconds (think bridges snapping un-

der heavy weights as just one example), it’s evident all the kids simply enjoy being there. “Whether they win or lose doesn’t matter,� Voisinet said. “The fact that they’re here and competing – that’s the win for every single one of these students. It’s nice if they win, but you see a smile on all of these kids.�

Each individual competition named winners, but there were also overall winners as well. At the middle school level, Grand Island Middle School placed first, Clarence Middle School placed second, and Lasalle Prep placed third. At the high school level, Cleveland Hill High School was named the 2015 Tech War Champions with Grand Island High School placing second and Orchard Park and Tonawanda City High Schools finishing in a tie for third.

Local sports Depth drives Will East past Grand Island in Fed hockey

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Williamsville East hockey continued its winning ways Saturday night (Jan. 10) with a win over Grand Island. The only difference this time was that the game-winning goal in the 5-1 win came from Justyn Segarra, a freshman defenseman who started the season with East’s JV team.

The Flames were able to take an early lead when Grand Island’s TJ Morgan took a four-minute major penalty for boarding just 52 seconds into the game.

Jack Kelly scored the power-play goal for East, assisted by Matt Steffan and Aaron Bengart.

Just a few minutes later, East’s Mike Steffan went to the box for interference, and the Vikings tied the game with an unassisted goal by Robert Nappo.

But East soon displayed why it’s the defending sectional champion and has only one loss this season.

The Flames’ stamina and depth could not be matched

by Grand Island. It wasn’t a highly physical game for the most part; East just proved to be stronger and was able to outlast the Vikings.

“I thought we wore them down a little bit,” East coach Mike Torrillo said after the game. “I thought o u r d e p t h t o d a y, t h e strength — we played three and four lines through the third period. And it looked like we kind of took it to them a little bit as far as stamina goes. And I think that’s the strength of our team. We play a lot of kids and the goal is just to keep going.”

It was just 2:18 into the second period when Segarra scored the goahead goal, which also happened to be his first varsity goal. The excitement from him and his teammates was clear. Alex Tzetzo and Chris Winiecki had the assists.

At the 5:55 mark, Joe Mostowy went to the box for high-sticking, but the Flames didn’t let that slow them down. Refusing to settle for simply killing the penalty, Alex Binfield, assisted by Matt Steffan, took the puck back into Grand Island’s end and

gave East a shorthanded insurance goal, increasing the lead to 3-1.

Mike Steffan added another goal later in the period, assisted by Alex Finley, and Binfield’s second goal of the game with just over two minutes remaining in the third period sealed East’s 5-1 win. Matt Cohen picked up the assist.

Torrillo was not only pleased with his team’s strength and stamina, but also with the pressure the Flames kept on Grand Island, which is the game plan every time they hit the ice, and their strong defense.

“If we keep pressuring and stay after people, I think we can force turnovers, which tonight I think we did,” Torrillo said.

“And I thought we did a good job in our defensive zone.”

Binfield led East with two goals, while Matt Steffan had two assists.

With a 5-4 win over West Seneca West on Sunday (Jan. 11), East improved to 11-1 while remaining undefeated in league play with a record of 7-0 to conclude the first half of the season. The Flames’ next game is Saturday, Jan. 17 against Kenmore West.

Also for Clarence, Nic Zivis had a beautiful first-period goal that beat the Regals’ goaltender on the short side.

Finn Graham had the other goal for the Stallions while Stadelmaier assisted on Fulfa-

As has become common of the Stallion defensemen Tucker Schoen, Owen McIntyre, Henning and Idzik, they were successful in limiting both the number and

quality of shots reaching goaltender Josh Gawron.

Gawron likewise remained solid, including on a number of challenging shots, allowing only a single goal by Rochester.

Local sports Steffan brothers bring scoring, chemistry to Will East hockey

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

For Matt and Mike Steffan, the joy of playing hockey together far outweighs the importance of any individual success.

The fact that the brothers lead Williamsville East in scoring this season is just an added bonus.

The boys grew up playing hockey together constantly, whether it was street hockey, mini sticks, Amherst travel, middle school hockey, or varsity hockey, as it is now.

“It’s been awesome playing with Mike,” Matt said.

Matt Steffan is the older

brother. He’s in his senior year at Williamsville East, his third year on the varsity team, and is one of three captains on this year’s team.

Mike is a sophomore, and this is his second year playing varsity. He looks up to Matt, and he’s thankful for the opportunity to play with his older brother again.

“We’ve been playing for a while, and I’ve always looked up to him as big brother,” Mike said. “So last year, when I made the team as a freshman, it was nice to finally get a chance to play with him again since we hadn’t since I was about 10 years old.”

They’ve been compared to the Sedin brothers, twins who play together for the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL. The comparison comes not just because of the obvious family connection, but also because

of the way the brothers know where each other is during the rare times they’re on the ice together.

“A lot of people like to say we’re like the Sedins because we always know where each other is on the ice even though we don’t really play together except for power play,” Matt said. “I’m more the setter-upper, I like to do the passing, so I would say I’m more like Henrik in that sense.”

Much of the Steffans’ success comes from the way they were taught to play hockey growing up, and having the same teachers — their parents — certainly helped.

“We’ve been doing well just because we’ve grown up learning the same things from our parents,” Matt said. “We know where each other is on the ice just because we play the game in a similar way.”

JEFFREY T. BARNES

Matt Steffan wad a team-high eight goals in seven league games at press time.

Mike agreed with his brother and also mentioned the team’s success as a whole. So far this season, East is undefeated in league play.

“Yeah, I think it’s nice,” Mike said. “I think our team’s coming along really well. And when we’re out there, I think we’ve been playing well together.”

Matt brought up an interesting statistic.

“I think every game this year, one of us has had a goal,” he said.

And sometimes they’ve both scored. Matt leads in points with nine goals and 12 assists, while Mike has 12 goals and five assists.

In addition to the offensive numbers they’ve each put up, each player brings something unique to the team.

For Mike, it’s versatility.

He’s listed as a forward, but that’s not all he does.

“I’d say that I’m a pretty versatile player,” Mike said. “I play all positions, wherever Coach [Mike Torrillo] needs me. On the power play I play defense and then forward on offense. And when Coach puts me out on the power play, wherever he needs me, I get out there and just finish in front, set guys up.”

Matt brings experience and patient leadership.

He’s aware of his skill as one of the best players on the team, but it wasn’t something he wanted to talk about at length.

“I think that guys look up to me because I’ve been playing under Torrillo for three years, and I would say I’m a pretty good teammate,” Matt said. “If someone messes

JEFFREY T. BARNES

Matt Steffan had three goals and nine assists in seven league games at press time. up, I’m not going to get on their case. I’m just going to try to encourage them to do better next time.

And I think guys also look up to me because when the game’s on the line or something, I’m the one that Coach puts out there to help win the game, even though it’s the entire team effort.”

Both young men hope to continue their undefeated league play. East is the defending sectional champion, and both Matt and Mike hope to go even further this year. In order to do that, both agree that they need to grow closer

as a team.

“We have to keep bonding, we have to keep practicing,” Matt said.

“We can’t be focused on who’s got the most points.

We just got to make sure that at the end of the day, East is the one with more goals than our opponent.”

Mike talked about how close the team already is, and that just needs to continue.

“Whenever we have free time, we’re always hanging out together, and we need to continue to do that to become a team,” he said.

The team is close. Like brothers.

Hey, can we talk for a minute? My name is Genevive and to me, age is just a number.

Being 6 years old has not cramped my style... I love to play, be petted and brushed and I am very good with other kitties. So, if my age does not bother me, why would it bother you... older kitties are the best and I would like to prove it to you. Come and visit me at PetSmart on Transit Rd. in Clarence or call Second Chance Sheltering at 652-6051.
