Sixth grade class at Hoover includes a large number of twins
Sixth grade teachers at Hoover Middle School in the Kenmore-Town of Tonawanda UFSD may have a better understanding of the confusion some students feel in a new building the first few days of school after discovering that the incoming sixth grade includes no less than eight sets of twins. The configurations varied with some sets of twins as identical and some fraternal. For a class of 237, it’s an unusually large number and a larger proportion than staff could recall, but they are fitting in nicely. While five of the students chose gym as their favorite class, Abby Grzeskowiak is excited about social studies. Sam Holden likes the fact that “there is more freedom and you don’t have to walk in lines.” Several other students said they liked the additional freedom they found in middle school, although Jordan Dywan and Emma Grzeskowiak said they would prefer it if there was “no homework.” According to school staff, while there similarities have been noted, so too have their uniqueness. “Each child is treated as an individual with his or her own personality and special qualities,” said Tina Schultz, ELA and science teacher.

Football players help students with reading and writing The day before their homecoming celebration, most Kenmore West High School varsity football players could be found reading alongside much younger students at Lindbergh, Roosevelt and Holmes elementary schools. The players – including the iconic Blue Devil mascot – provided feedback to the children, who eagerly showcased their most recent writing and reading assignments. This is the third year that Matt O’Malley, a special education teacher and assistant varsity football coach at Kenmore West, has brought the players out to elementary schools to read alongside younger children, and it has become an annual tradition, growing each year. “I think it’s important for the players to read to kids, especially since, when they get older, they are going to be reading to their own children,” O’Malley said. It was a coincidence the event fell the day before homecoming, but that didn’t deter the players from taking part. They started at Lindbergh Elementary School, where they not only read with the children but engaged them in a pick-up football game too. At Roosevelt, they worked alongside struggling readers who have been working

hard to advance their literacy skills. Finally, they finished the day with two classroom visits at Holmes. The younger students were excited to be paired with the players, who wore their jerseys and were accompanied by the Blue Devil mascot. The first year, O’Malley only took his players to one class at one school, but the program has expanded over the past two years when it was so wellreceived. “I didn’t know what to expect at first but it surprised

me in a very positive way,” O’Malley said. “These kids do a fantastic job. When we put them in a position to be successful, they do it.” O’Malley expressed his appreciation toward Brett Banker, district athletics director, and Rich Harris, head coach, for their support for the program. The activity accomplishes a lot. For one thing, it shows the elementary school students that the players on the field are also students in the classroom. It is also a learning experience for the players.

“It is important for the younger students to see our athletes in class,” O’Malley said. “But it’s not just important for the younger kids.

More than 300 students take part in reading tradition
Recently, students at Franklin Middle School showed their younger peers from the adjoining elementary school what effective reading strategies look like. Over the course of the day, social studies teacher Tara Gabel brought her seventh grade students to work alongside several first- through fourth-grade classes from Franklin Elementary School to serve as role models and to share with them the importance of reading. It was the Friday before Columbus Day and the lessons being taught on both sides of the Franklin middle/elementary complex coincided nicely. For instance, Gabel’s seventh graders were learning about early American explorers and had just illustrated Columbus Day-related books; meanwhile, third graders were learning about geography and continents and building their stamina and fluency as readers. That was the focus of the event: complimenting the work taking place in the classroom at the elementary level to develop reading skills by allowing the younger students to see it in action by students who are only a few years older. “They are learning to become independent as a successful reader through a variety of reading experiences,” said Jill Mattea, another third grade teacher at Franklin Elementary. “The module

All told, factoring in the students from both the elementary and middle school, approximately 300 students participated in Friday’s event. It took place in the middle school library, which allowed the younger
students to see where they would be attending in a few years. “At first my students are nervous, but they look back on it as a really good memory. They are out in the community – the school community,” Gabel said. “Also, I get some of my future students here, which is neat.” It’s not only an educational experience for the students participating but a memorable one as well. Many of the seventh graders reading this year participated in the program themselves as
elementary school students only a few years ago. “The great thing about this event is that they are sharing the importance of reading,” said Robyn Brydalski, third grade teacher at Franklin Elementary School. “The seventh graders are modeling good reading strategies, which will be critical as they go down the line. It’s a lifelong skill, and it’s important for the third grade students to see the seventh grade students following through with the lessons we teach.”

Major General Patrick A. Murphy, the Adjutant General, announces the recent reenlistment of members of the New York Army National Guard in recognition of their continuing commitment to serve community, state and nation as part of the Army National Guard. Sergeant Nathan Berry from Alden has reenlisted to continue service with the Company A, 2-108th Infantry. Specialist Brian Borden from Buffalo has reenlisted to continue service with the 152nd Engineer Support Company. Sergeant Victoria Braun from Kenmore has reenlisted to continue service with the Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 27th Brigade Special Troops Battalion. Private First Class Andrew Burns from Buffalo has reenlisted to continue service with the 152nd Engineer Support Company. Staff Sergeant Thomas Cassick from Lockport has reenlisted to continue service with the Company D (Forward Support Company Reconnaissance, Surveillance and Target Acquisition), 427th Brigade Support Battalion. Specialist Lawrence Hagler from Buffalo has reenlisted to continue service
with the Company A, 2-108th Infantry. Sergeant Kenneth Lilley from Lockport has reenlisted to continue service with the 827th Engineer Company. Private First Class David Olewniczak from Lancaster has reenlisted to continue service with the Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 27th Brigade Special Troops Battalion. Sergeant Nicholas Sansalone from Niagara Falls has reenlisted to continue service with the Troop C, 2-101 Cavalry (Reconnaissance, Surveillance and Target Acquisition). “The New York Army National Guard has sustained our force at or above 100 percent strength for the better part of five years now,” Murphy said. “Keeping those ready forces in our ranks means that New York is ready to provide forces for state missions here at home, as we saw during Hurricane Sandy or for the federal missions supporting our nation around the country and around the world. “Each of our 16,000 men and women serving in the Army and Air National Guard has an important role and I’m pleased that so many continue to reenlist and remain part of our New York National Guard family.”

Medaille president plans retirement
Dr. Richard T. Jurasek, Medaille College president since 2007, has announced his decision to retire in mid-summer 2015, citing health reasons for his decision to decline a contract extension offer from the college’s board of trustees. “The Medaille College Board of Trustees is unanimously grateful to Dr. Jurasek for his nearly eight years of leadership and recognizes all of his efforts to ensure the best possible education for our students,” stated Charles E. Moran, Jr., chair, Medaille College Board of Trustees. “Although we were hopeful that Rick would accept the board’s offer to extend his current contract, we understand his decision. Rick’s strategies to secure Medaille’s future and weave the college into the fabric of life in Western New York will continue to guide us for years to come.” “Medaille’s sense of purpose still inspires me and I have watched as new friends and supporters have joined with us to

Chimera retires from Ken East football, players give him ultimate going away gift By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER
Matt Chimera was so wrapped up in his normal pregame preparation that it took him a while to catch on to what his kids were doing prior to their game against Medina on Oct. 30. The Bulldogs, knowing that this would be Chimera’s final game as head varsity coach at Kenmore East, were writing Chimera’s name on tape and putting it on the helmets as a show of respect. “Right before the game, I noticed one of my kids had a piece of tape on the back of his helmet that said ‘Coach.’ I asked, ‘what do you have that there for?’” said Chimera. “I looked, they all did. They had coach or my name on it. That was cool.” The Bulldogs then went out and gave their coach the best going away present they could
think of: a 39-32 victory over the Mustangs to win the Section VI Class A Chuck Funke Memorial Bowl consolation series. It capped off a streak of three consecutive wins that started with a shocking 7-0 upset of Kenmore West on Oct. 18. Ken East assistant coach Dennis Danheiser asked every player and coach to sign a team football that was then placed inside a glass case and presented to Chimera after the game. “It was kind of cool because at Medina, on the visitors side, you’re kind of right next to the bleachers...It’s a pretty intimate setting there,” Chimera said. “Coach Danheiser made a presentation right in front of the bleachers with all of the parents. The captains spoke. I didn’t know they were going to do it.” Taking over as head coach in 2000, Chimera lived and died with the Bulldogs and

put every ounce of his heart and soul into that program. “Coach Chimera was an outstanding coach and an even better person. His love for coaching and for his players was so evident and genuine,” said senior captain Matt Rymarczyk. “I am thankful for having been coached by him and I know he’ll always have my back. I’m a better player and a better person now than I was before he coached me.” But as much as Chimera loved his Bulldogs football family, the pull of life on the home front was obviously stronger. With his son, Matthew, and daughter, Allie, getting older, Chimera was starting to feel the strain of struggling to balance his commitment to Ken East football while still being a devoted dad. Ultimately, Chimera just knew it was time, which made each game this season with the ‘Dogs even more special. Chimera, a Ken West grad,
is a member of the 300-win club in varsity softball. He will remain as head coach of the Lady Blue Devils softball team for which his daughter plays. The journey on the gridiron wasn’t always easy. All coaches know that win or lose, they are always subject to criticism. And no matter your record, you always seem to fail in the eyes of one person or another. But as Matt Chimera walks away from his days with the Kenmore East football team, he know he takes with him the kind of memories you simply cannot put a price tag on. “Definitely,” Chimera said. “Whether it be this year or whatever year. The year we were 8-1, it doesn’t matter what the record is. There are times that people are questioning this, questioning that. Then a night like the other night (in Medina) makes it all worth it.”
Sagasta, Ken West swim take third place at NFL meet By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER
The Carrie Meetze swim factory just keeps churning out the talent. Julia Sagasta’s two firstplace finishes set the tone as the Kenmore West Lady Blue Devils took third place
overall in the Niagara Frontier League championships that were held Oct. 28-30 at North Tonawanda’s AlumniStudent Activity Center. Individually, Sagasta took first-place medals in the 200 I.M. and the 500 freestyle to help the Blue Devils score 310 points. Finishing just behind Lewiston-Porter (317), which was able to grab second place thanks to Vinnie Costanzo winning the diving portion of the championships. The Blue Devils, who did
not score points in diving, hung close to eventual NFL champion Lockport. Ken West even overtook the Lions for first place after four events with a slight 119-117 edge. Sagasta, a senior, scored her first medal of the night in the 200 with a time of 2:17.41, narrowly beating out freshman teammate Josie Michaels, who swam a 2:24.65 for second place. “It was so great,” Sagatsa said with a smile. “(Josie) wasn’t expecting it and I
knew she could do it.” Sagasta posted a time of 5:18 to win the 500 freestyle and collect another 20 team points. Michaels and Sagasta teamed with sophomore Brianna Garcia and senior Sommer Stevens to second place in the 200 yard freestyle relay with a time of 1:45.96. Stevens, Sagasta and Garcia teamed with Gillian Boal for second place in the 400 relay, just two seconds behind Lockport’s first-place
time of 3:46.48. A strong team effort that saw significant contributions from multiple girls, the Lady Blue Devils also got help from Garcia taking second place in the 200 freestyle and third in 100 freestyle, while Boal and sophomore Maddie Green scored points in the 100 breaststroke. “Our team always does a little bit better in the finals,” said Ken West coach Carrie Meetze. “Our team is known to come ready and get that best (personal) time. Every-
one is swimming best times today.” Boal, one of the NFL’s most versatile swimmers, was the lead girl in the Blue Devils’ fourth-place finish in the 200 relay. The team also included Michaels, Green, and Samantha Hanley. Stevens, Green, Hanley and freshman Katie Jung all finished in the top 11 of the 100 yard butterfly. The Lady Blue Devils took park in the Section VI Championships that were held Nov. 6-7 at ECC City.

Boerema, Joe’s down Canisius, claim MMAA title By Tom Gallagher CPOWNY SPORTS EDITOR
All week leading up to its Monsignor Martin Athletic Association championship game against Canisius, St. Joe’s boys soccer coach Mike Thoin had his Marauders working on penalty kicks for at least a half-hour. The extra work paid off when it mattered most. Joe’s and Canisius played to a scoreless tie through regulation and a pair of 10-minute extra sessions, but the Marauders clipped the Crusaders in penalty kicks, 5-3, to give them a 1-0 victory in the teams’ playoff final Nov. 2 at
Niagara University. Joe’s (19-0-1) now advances to the State Catholic Championships Nov. 8 on Long Island. The teams traded successful PKs for three rounds. Hunter Walsh, Donald Minderler and Marcus D’Aguiar all tallied for the Marauders while Brad Pohlman, Griffin Stone and Will Bolton all beat Joe’s keeper Will Boerema. Henry Frome gave the No. 1 Marauders a 4-3 advantage, and that’s when Boerema took over — if he hadn’t already. The four-year varsity starter stopped Mike Bobak’s attempt with a diving save and was selected to take a turn in the kicks the very next shot. He beat the Canisius keeper, clinching the victory and Joe’s second straight Monsignor Martin Athletic Association title. Boerema’s display in the
penalty kicks was just a sample of the dazzling performance he turned in all game for his 15th shutout of the season. The senior finished with 12 saves, the best of which came in overtime when he dove to his right to stymie Matt Keating’s point-blank attempt, and kept a Joe’s squad that had fewer shots and less possession time than its opponent in the game. “He was superb,” Thoin said after the game. “He, in my opinion, is the best goalie in Western New York.” But he wasn’t alone. Thoin lauded the play of centerback defenders Frome and D’Aguiar and said both had integral roles in blanketing a strong Canisius attack. “They don’t give up a lot of chances,” Thoin said. “[Boerema] played a really solid game with the two of them. They play together in
the summer, year-round, and they’re all on the same page.” “It was a really strong defensive effort,” Boerema added. “It was tough to get the offense going, but the defense really helped out a lot stopping them and holding them off a bit.” Thoin suggested that it may have been tough getting the offense going because his club was missing three starters. Evan Scales, Philip Grande and Maxwell McArthur were all held out due to injury. Additionally, this was the fourth time the two teams met. Joe’s bested the Crusaders 4-0, 1-0 and 3-1 in the three prior meetings. Thoin said that may have had something to do with Canisius’ strong effort. “It’s real, real hard to play anybody four times,” Thoin said. “There’s no secrets. Everybody knows, you just go back and forth.”

St. Joe’s forces five turnovers in MMAA win over Timon ByMike Pidanick SPORTS REPORTER
It was a cold and rainy night at Tifft Field on Friday. For visiting St. Joe’s, it was a great night to play football. The Marauders got down and dirty in a Monsignor Martin Athletic Association game and beat host Bishop Timon St. Jude 44-26, securing a bye for the upcoming playoffs in the process,
“That’s football,” St. Joe’s coach Dennis Gilbert said. “Not enough kids get a chance to play on grass and get muddy. I told my guys, ‘this is how the game was invented. You get spoiled at times.’ It was a great game, real hard-fought battle.” A ball-hawking defense made it a real great game for the visiting sideline. St. Joe’s forced seven turnovers, including a pair of interception returns for touchdowns. All told, 37 of the Marauders’ 44 points came following Timon turnovers. “They outplayed us in every facet of the game,” Timon coach Charlie Com-

terceptions and lost two fumbles in defeat. Five of those turnovers came in the first half as the Marauders took a 30-8 lead into the locker room. Darren Thompson and Louie Surace each had a pick-6 in a decisive second quarter that saw St. Joe’s outscore Timon 16-0. In the first quarter, Surace returned an interception 52 yards to the Tigers’ 10 yard line, setting up a touchdown run by Thompson, “We worked a lot on attacking the ball when it’s in the air and becoming a receiver,” Gilbert said. “We did a good job of that today, I was proud of how they played.”
The victory earns the Marauders (4-5, 3-2 MMAA) a chance to rest up with a first-round bye as the No. 2 seed behind heavy-favorite Canisius. Meanwhile, Timon (6-3, 3-2 MMAA) is looking at a likely No. 3 seed and a first-round game against Cardinal O’Hara. “We probably were going to end up playing Joe’s anyway, so not much changed there,” Comerford said, “except now we have to play a real good O’Hara team next week and if we come out like we did tonight, O’Hara will beat us.” Despite some setbacks early and a lot of graduation losses, St. Joe’s seems to be playing well
at the right time. That was evident from the get-go on Friday. “Our kids were ready to play,” Gilbert said. “We’re turning the corner finally, some of these guys are growing up. They got some experience playing some good ball. Brandon May had 127 yards passing and three rushing touchdowns for the Tigers, while Gavin Caulfield added an 87-yard kickoff return. Timon got as close as 37-26 in the fourth quarter and had possession of the ball, but were again stalled by a turnover. David Archer had a TD passing and another rushing for St. Joe’s.

Wheatley’s late TD pushes OP past Ken West, into sectional finals By Dave Ricci SPORTS REPORTER
If the Quakers weren’t happy before that Terius Wheatley transferred in, they are certainly are now. Wheatley, a junior who transferred from Canisius to OP this year, scored the game-winning touchdown as Orchard Park had to come from behind to defeat Kenmore West, 25-20, in their Section VI Class AA semifinal game that was played Nov. 1 at Crosby Field. The victory sends the Quakers to the sectional title game at 9 p.m. Nov. 7 at Ralph Wilson Stadium, where they will face AA South rival Jamestown in a rematch of a Week 7 contest that saw the Red Raiders defeat OP, 19-0. “We played special defense in the last quarter-and-ahalf,” said OP coach Gene Tundo of his team’s performance against Ken West. “We stopped them down at the two, we stopped them at the 30. Then we just came up with some big catches and throws on our last drive. What a football game. I give all the credit to Kenmore. They fought and scratched and put them in a good spot. Our guys answered the bell when we had to.” Wheatley scored on a 7-yard run with just under two minutes to play to cap off a drive that saw Orchard Park QB Dillon Janca connect with Jack Crowley on two huge passes that got the Quakers into Ken West’s red zone. “We came in. We prepared hard,” said Wheatley. “Lot of good speeches in the locker room preparing us. We were
just ready. Everybody wanted it.” The AA North champion Blue Devils had a big momentum swing in their favor when the Quakers had a miscue on a snap. The ball slipped out of Janca’s hands and bounced free until Ken West’s Gavin Sloan dove on top. West drove the ball to the OP 2-yard line, but the drive stalled when Wheatley made a stop at the line. OP took over on its own three with a 19-14 lead when Ken-West’s Rainey Darahn fell on a loose ball in the end zone to give the Blue Devils the 20-19 lead with 7:36 left in the game. “The kids played hard. It was so close we could almost taste it. That’s a good way to put it,” said Ken West coach Rich Harris. “We could almost taste it. It wasn’t like anyone started playing or anything like that. You have to make big plays in those crucial situations to win ball games, especially in the playoffs. When you get to the semifinals, finals. Big games like that and we weren’t able to.” Orchard Park initially looked like it might run away with the game after jumping out to a 13-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to a 5-yard rushing TD by Billy Myers and a TD pass from Janca (16 for 27/141 yards) to Kevin Koziol. Myers’ first of two touchdowns was set up by a Wheatley interception. Ken West answered with a Jayson Taylor 1-yard TD run followed by a two point conversion by Mark Taylor. Trent White (27 yards)

Terius Wheatley’s touchdown with less than two minutes to play proved to be the game-winner in OP’s win over Kenmore West Saturday. stamped his name in the Blue Devils’ record book when he set the all-time career receiving mark on an 8-yard pass from DeAngelo Walker to set up Terrell Ford’s touchdown that put Ken West up 14-13 at halftime. Ford had 126 yards rushing for the Blue Devils. Myers’ 8-yard touchdown run up the middle gave OP the lead with 49 seconds to
play in the third. The game was a rematch from week two that saw OP leave Crosby with very hard fought 35-18 victory. “They’re always a good team,” Wheatley said of Ken West. “We played them the first time and we had trouble with them.” Ken West got the ball back for one last drive with 1:52 to play. On third-and-15,
Walker (7 for 20/82 yards) threw a hail Mary pass to Ford, but he was unable to hang on to the slippery ball. West had one last gasp to keep a miracle drive together, but OP sealed the win with its fourth interception of the day. From there, the Quakers took the knee and ran out the clock for Tundo’s 175th career coaching win. This was the fourth season
in a row the Blue Devils saw their season come to an end in the semifinals. But having the lead late in the game made this one sting more than the others. “I’m proud of the kids,” said Harris. “Proud of the season that they had. Proud of the way they played today. Can’t ask for a better game to come down to the last couple minutes like that.”

Malinowski guides Buff State soccer to playoff By Jonah Bronstein SPORTS REPORTER
Liz Malinowski extended her college career with a golden goal. The Williamsville South graduate scored the fifth and deciding goal in a penalty kick shootout to lead the Buffalo State women’s soccer team to a victory over Fredonia in the SUNYAC quarterfinals. Malinowski and co-captain Gabrianna Boldinski (Kenmore East) anchored a defensive effort that kept a potent Fredonia side off the score sheet. The senior defender then asked to take the last shot in her last home game, and buried the game-winner. “That was a nice capstone for her senior year,” coach Nick DeMarsh said. “Espe-
cially against Fredonia. That’s always been a rival.” Breanna Knight, Meghan Allen, Megan Chapple and Kristin Seiferth also scored on penalty kicks following a 110-minute scoreless draw. DeMarsh selected his seniors, Malinowski and Chapple, for the shootout, “because they’ve got the experience and have been around the block a few times. “Liz said she’d take the last shot, which I thought was big. As a defender, she is not your typical attacker, shooter.” Fredonia out-shot Buffalo State 20-7 in the game and 12-1 in the second half. Freshman goalkeeper Nicole Torres made 10 saves in her second career shutout. “We set the team up to deal with Fredonia’s attack. We wanted to make sure we shut them down and we achieved

Buffalo State’s postseason hopes took a major hit last weekend when the Bengals lost 35-25 at St. John Fisher. The Bengals (5-3, 3-3) have lost two in a row and now trail nationallyranked St. John Fisher by two games in the Empire 8 Conference standings with just one conference game left to play. Ryan Carney (Olean)
caught four passes for 133 yards and a touchdown in the loss. Mike Doherty (Kenmore East) caught four passes for 87 yards.

that goal,” DeMarsh said. “Liz and Gabby, both of my center-backs, had great games.” Buffalo State (7-7-5) will now travel to play No. 2 seed Cortland (6-8-2) in the semifinals Wednesday. It’s the Bengals third trip to the semis since 2010, but the program has not played in the SUNYAC championship game since 1984, when it lost on penalty kicks against Cortland. The Red Dragons won 1-0 at Buffalo State in the regular season, but the Bengals picked up a win in Ithaca last season, and came away from this season’s loss confident for a rematch. “We actually kind of wanted to get them in the playoffs because I thought we deserved more and the team would like a second crack at them,” DeMarsh said.
COURTESY OF BUFFALO STATE ATHLETICS
Liz Malinowski, a Williamsville South graduate, scored the fifth and deciding goal in a penalty kicks shootout to lead Buff State to a quarterfinal win.
Beaumont, Bengals best Cortland in overtime BUFFALO, NY—Sophomore Anthony Beaumont (Lester, PA/Interboro) scored his first collegiate goal in the second period, and then netted his second in overtime, to lift Buffalo State (1-1/1-1) to a 3-2 SUNYAC victory over visiting Cortland (0-1-1/0-1-1) at the Ice Arena. Beaumont redirected a point shot by Marcus Michalski (Woodstock, ON/St. Mary’s Catholic) through the Cortland goalie’s legs for the game winning goal with 1:50
remaining in overtime. Brett Hope (Blenheim, ON/Blenheim) also drew an assist on the winning marker. Buffalo State opened the game on the power play due to a protocol violation penalty on Cortland and applied early pressure. The Red Dragons drew first blood, however, when Dan Broderick deflected a point shot by Ryan Wagner to the back of the net 8:43 into the opening period. Beaumont evened the score for Buffalo State with his first
career goal on the power-play late in the opening frame when he banged home a rebound off a Taylor Pryce (Newmarket, ON/Cardinal Carter) shot. Hope also picked up an assist. Freshman Jason Zaleski (Scranton, PA/Scranton) gave Buffalo State the lead when he wired a shot high blocker side off the rush for his first collegiate goal, on the power play. Jake Rosen (E. Amherst, NY/Williamsville North) and Michalski were credited with the assists.
The Red Dragons pulled even when Tommy Nolan capitalized on a scramble around the net midway through the period with the teams playing 4-on-4. Mike DeLaVergne (Pawling, NY/Pawling) earned his first win between the pipes for the Bengals, turning aside 34 of 36 shots faced. Buffalo State will play two more home SUNYAC games next Friday and Saturday when it hosts Morrisville State for a twin set.

tion dedicated to service members and their families; and comprised of the Army Times, Navy Times, Air Force Times and Marine Corps Times – recently ranked ECC seventh overall (and tops in New York State) among the country’s best career and technical colleges in its annual “Best for Vets” issue, determined by a highly respected, nearly 110-question analysis of a college’s efforts to pro-
vide veterans an environment for success. ECC’s devoted Veterans Affairs offices (at each campus), affordability and staff support for the college’s over 550 student vets earned high marks from the organization, but also validated the college’s veteran commitment at a national level. “This is not only another example of how ECC is gaining national recognition for its education, but
another instance in which hard work pays off,” ECC President Jack Quinn said. “Our college’s Veterans Affairs staff has worked tirelessly to give our returning servicemen the support, education and the career opportunities they deserve, and we look forward to continuing this dedication to our U.S. veterans for years to come.” Regularly recognized as the best college for vets in the Buffalo-Niag-
ara region, ECC has also earned national recognition for its veteran efforts in such publications as Military Advanced Education Magazine, NJCAA Review and previously with Military Times EDGE Magazine. With a supportive community, classroom-to-career opportunities and Veterans Affairs coordinators helping over 500 student veterans every year, ECC has positioned itself to pro-
vide the best educational, retraining and counseling support for Western New York’s servicemen and women. These attributes – combined with affordable tuition, accessible financial aid, veteran-specific educational assistance, and more than 100 degree and certificate programs – continue to earn the college both local and national acclaim as a top choice for student veterans.

Home Free By: Lauren Kirchmyer
A cappella country music quintet Home Free visited Buffalo for the first time in March. They were touring with three other groups as part of “The Sing Off Live Tour!” after appearing on season four of NBC’s “The Sing Off,” a competition series. Home Free, the show’s champion, was surprised to see how much appreciation of country and a cappella music there was in Western New York, causing them to want to return to the city during their “Crazy Life” national headlining tour. “This show will be very different from our last one,” said Chris Rupp, Home Free member and creator. The show will include songs from their YouTube channel and individual songs from each person in the group, along with lighting, staging and choreography. “It’s a
family-friendly show that appeals to every demographic. And it’s not just country music, there will be some pop and oldies, too.” Their 34-city tour kicked off Nov. 5 in Durham, N.C. In each city, the band arrives around 9 a.m. and the crew begins their loading process in the theater around noon. Rupp said he enjoys going to the gym, answering emails and going on social media before taking the stage around 4:30 p.m. for sound check, which is followed by a 20 to 30 minute rehearsal. In each city, the band allows VIP ticket holders to come into the theater around 5:30 p.m. “We normally have a Q&A session, sing a song we’re not doing in the show, do a private signing, give out special goodies and take pictures,” Rupp said. The band – consisting of Rupp, his brother Adam and
their friends Austin Brown, Rob Lundquist and Tim Foust – will then head backstage to enjoy dinner and clean up before starting their show at 7:30. When the 90-minute show, which includes an intermission, comes to an end, fans have the chance to meet Home Free and get autographs. This is also when the crew begins the tear down process, packing up all their equipment. Around 2 a.m. the tour bus leaves and they’re on their way to the next city to repeat the process. “Sleeping on a moving bus isn’t the easiest thing in the world,” Rupp said. He also finds it hard to eat well while on the road. “So many fans like to give us cookies and cakes.” Being on tour makes it hard for Rupp to maintain relationships with his friends

BASEMENT WATERPROOFING
(NAPSI)—The mantel is such a great focal point in any living room or family room but, often, it gets special treatment only during the holidays. Here are some new ideas to transform your mantel (or windowsill, bookshelf or coffee table) all year round. Fall: Embrace harvest season and all of its bounty. Use large metal disks, stalks of wheat and decorative lanterns for height and then add apothecary jars filled with white pumpkins. A whimsical owl is a terrific touch, as are a few more pumpkins placed throughout. Winter: During winter, create a warm feeling with a big clock leaning against the wall or old books with
simple white covers. Since there needs to be some height on each side, place lanterns on top of book piles or rustic candlesticks atop a heavy vintage box. Spring: Nature is in full bloom. Use green, faux grass in a rustic planter and add some height with a birdcage or an old window. White candlesticks and small terracotta pots with yellow and blue flowers incorporate the essence of spring. Add some depth and visual interest with upside-down flowerpots or small wooden benches. Summer: Look to the garden. “Summer-ize” a large circular mirror with a hydrangea wreath featuring a combination of colors and some burlap.

(NAPSI)—If your family is like most, it’s not like any other, and your kitchen shouldn’t be either. Every family has its own distinct requirements for the kitchen. Fortunately, a few simple steps can help you personalize your cooking and cleaning space to make it work best for you. Some ideas to personalize your kitchen workspace: • While a monochrome look can be sophisticated and serene, a few pops of color in curtains, cushions, door and drawer pulls can set it off and point it up. • Use your kitchen to show off your style. If you collect saltshakers, say, display them on open or glassfronted shelves. Display your grandmother’s famous pie recipe in a frame. • It’s a bright idea to look to the lighting. There should be task lighting, accent lighting to highlight a special feature, and general overhead light. Try a bright spotlight in the kitchen over
