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. 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 using only broken down cardboard, tape, glue and paint. 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

continue to have the capability to be as involved [in technology] and stay on pace with the boys in middle school, but they tend to get bored or go into other fields at the middle school. We have to continue to get them to stay involved at the middle school level.” Voisinet, who is the program coordinator of the Computer Aided Design and Drafting curriculum at NCCC, has found there are many jobs open in the S.T.E.M. fields right now, but many of the companies cannot find enough workers with the knowledge to
work there. “There’s never a lack of jobs in the S.T.E.M. fields,” he said. “What we lack is graduates in those fields. 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 under 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.

Drake School PTA encourages community to annual support Theme Tray Raffle By Kori Sciandra
The Sunshine Boys at Ellicott Creek Playhouse
NORTH TONAWANDA SUN EDITOR
Each year members of the PTA at Drake School, in North Tonawanda, work toward achieving their fundraising goals in order to help the students. Whether this means helping with the purchase of school supplies or fixing a broken pipe, like they have done in the past, all proceeds raised help better the experience of the students. This year, fundraising efforts are being put forth by a new group that has formed called Friends of Drake School. “We are raising funds to get a new playground for the school. The one the school has is from the 1990s and is beginning to show it’s age to put it nicely,” said Karen Skoney, a member of Friends of Drake School. “Our goal is not only a new playground but a handicap accessible playgrounds, which is more costly. So far we have received donations from Ted’s Hot Dogs, Holiday Inn, Rainbow Rink, Matt’s Music, The Melting Pot, Mighty Taco, Disney World, Buffalo Bandits, Buffalo Sabres, Buffalo Bills, UB Bulls Basketball and more are coming every day.” The Friends of Drake School are looking to the community for support and help raising funds to build the new playground. “Right now the only purpose of Friends of Drake
By Joanne DalPorto NT SUN CORRESPONDENT
Pictured above are residents from the community who came out to enjoy last years fundraising event in support of Drake School. School is to raise funds for the playground. Once the new playground is in, we will begin looking at other needs of the school and working on raising funds to assist with those needs. The playground is used constantly by our teachers and I have personally seen parents with smaller children using it as well. So for the sake of our students and the community in general, we really want to see this happen. We have started to look into replacing it and have found that it can cost $50,000 for the playground alone and then we need to have it installed. Needless to say, this is
a huge goal but one the students and community need to have happen,” said Skoney. The PTA will host a Theme Tray Raffle Friday, Feb. 6 with doors opening at 6 p.m., at 380 Drake Drive, North Tonawanda. “I would really just like to invite the community to come to the raffle to help support us,” said Skoney. Drawings will begin at 8 p.m.. Tickets for the event are being sold pre-sale for $4 per sheet, $5 per sheet at the door. A sheet consists of 25 tickets, plus a door prize ticket. This price is for baskets only. Special tables featuring

high value items will be on hand - $1 per tickets for items valued at $100 $200. There will be a special Disney Raffle, $5 per ticket. Prize includes a 4-1 Day Park Hopper Passes. This is a valued at more than $500. Friends of Drake School are still in need of basket donations as well and they can email us to make arrangements for someone to pick up their donation or drop it off. To reserve tickets or for more information, contact friendsofdrakeschool@ gmail.com. Refreshments available for purchase.
If you’re looking for a diversion from the wintry weather, some live theater could really fill the bill. Neil Simon’s comedy “The Sunshine Boys” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday evenings and 3 p.m. on Sundays beginning Feb. 6 and running through Feb. 22. The Ellicott Creek Playhouse, 530 Ellicott Creek Road, Tonawanda is home to the Niagara Regional Theatre Guild (formerly Niagara Falls Little Theatre). With seating for 200, the playhouse has been remodeled from the former sanctuary of St. Edmund Parish into an intimate, comfortable performing arts center with high-end technical capabilities. Directed by Joe Fratello, and starring Paul Bene and Steve Jakiel, the play tells
the story of two old vaudeville comedians whose act broke up stormily years earlier. Having no contact for over a decade, the men are asked to reunite for a television show highlighting the history of comedy. The combination of blustery temperaments, personality quirks, and witty insults will keep you laughing until the spring if all goes well. In the 1975 film “The Sunshine Boys,” George Burns and Walter Matthau brought the characters of Al Lewis and Willy Clark to the screen so successfully the movie won several Academy and Golden Globe Awards including the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. Tickets are $16 general, $15 for senior citizens, and $14 pre-sale. For reservations or more information call 260-2319 or visit www.niagaratheatre.com.

Local sports Logar’s vision an asset for Niagara-Wheatfield Fed hockey
By Nick Sabato SPORTS REPORTER
Vision is a skill that is incredibly important in any sport. Whether it is a quarterback in football, a point guard in basketball or a playmaker in hockey, vision is essential to success. Niagara-Wheatfield forward Andrew Logar has shown throughout his high school career that his vision is tremendous and that he sees the ice as well as any player in Western New York. “He’s got great vision,” said Niagara-Wheatfield head coach Rick Wrazin. “He’s playing with two young kids in Nick Peters and Chris Tobey, who both work the puck well and put themselves in good posi-
tions. When he handles the puck and sees the ice, he makes very smart passes. As long as he continues to play like that, he’s a difference maker. We need him playing that role.” Logar finished second on the team in scoring last year, scoring 12 goals and tallying 13 assists while playing with two experienced forwards around him. This season, his role has changed a bit as he has been playing with two freshmen on his line, so the senior has been called upon to become even more of a passer and set-up man. “Last year, I played with guys that I always knew where they were going to be,” said Logar. “This year, I started out with a couple of different people but we switched the lines up a bit JEFFREY T. BARNES and I know where the guys I’m playing with are going Andrew Logar had 10 assists as of Jan. 11. to be for the most part and I just get it to them.” With just two goals on It hasn’t been an issue, the season, it could be because everyone wants to easy for Logar to become be the guy to put the puck though, particularly as the Falcons continue to make disgruntled with his role in the net.
a push at the top spot in the division and hope to prolong their six-game winning streak. Logar also believes that once he gets one past the goaltender, they will begin to come with regularity, sort of like a shooter in basketball who gains confidence when they see the ball go through the net. “It’s frustrating sometimes but as long as we get wins it’s alright with me,” said Logar. “I just have to bear down sometimes and get it in the net. I think once I get one, they will start coming frequently. I just have to get that one first.” The coaching staff echoed the same sentiment asLogar, as his goal scoring drought is not a big call for concern considering he is on pace to eclipse a careerhigh in assists this season. Last season, he was able to play with Matt Paonessa, who notched 21 assists, so Logar often found himself in scoring situations quite frequently. This season, he is now
playing Paonessa’s role, but if he finds himself in those scoring areas with the puck on his stick, you can be certain that goals will begin to come for him. “He’s playing with two young guys, so it’s a little tough,” said Wrazin. “His role is a little bit different. Last year he was playing with Matt Paonessa, who was a great playmaker. He can score when he gets pucks in the right position so he was in a good place with that last year. He’s getting his opportunities and it will come. With a kid like that, once they come, it will start happening frequently for him.” With an assist against Lancaster on Jan. 11, Logar reached 10 on the season, which puts him one shy of 30 for his career. He also scored his 20th career goal against Clarence the following night, and as Niagara-Wheatfield travels to Rockland County this weekend (Jan. 16-17), he has the chance to get his 50th career point.
Wheatfield downs Lancaster for second time this season
By Nick Sabato SPORTS REPORTER
When Niagara-Wheatfield and Lancaster met in the first game of the season on Dec. 7, it was no contest. The Falcons routed the Redskins, 7-1, after pumping
in two early goals to help get off to a fast start and never look back. When the two teams faced off for the second time at Niagara University on Sunday night (Jan. 11), the beginning of the game was far different, as it took over half the contest for either team to get on the board. Finally, with 5:57 left in the second period, NiagaraWheatfield finally got on the board on a tip-in from Chris Churakos, and the Falcons
began to fly, scoring three goals in just under four minutes in what became a 4-0 win. “The first time we played them we put a couple in the net right away,” said Niagara-Wheatfield head coach Rick Wrazin. “We are having a little trouble finding the back of the net. We’re not strong enough and bearing down like we need to on rebounds. I thought we out-played them in the first two periods, I thought we
could have been up, but we didn’t finish when we needed to. We had our opportunities; we just let our rebounds get away from us.” The Falcons got some scoring from some unlikely sources in this game and that is something that they have been looking for all season. Churakos, who came in with just one goal all season, finished with a three-point night as he notched a goal and two assists. Garrett Downie also had three
points, scoring two goals and tallying an assist. Dakota Becker, normally a goal scorer, had three assists on the night. “It is something we need,” said Wrazin. “We have always had balance in the past and it’s paid off. We have a lot of guys on this team that we know that can score goals, but for whatever reason, they haven’t, and as coaches, it’s our job to figure out why and that’s something we’re working on.
Offensively when we settle in and possess the puck, we get opportunities, but we’re just not putting them away.” Domenic Tallarico picked up his second shutout of the season after stopping 22 Lancaster shots as he improved to 3-1 on the year. Niagara-Wheatfield pushed its winning streak to six games when it defeated Clarence, 3-2, on Jan. 12. They’ll head to Rockland County for a series of games this weekend.

Local sports Bradley’s jumper becoming her bread and butter By Nick Sabato SPORTS REPORTER
At the beginning of the season, the Starpoint girls basketball team had a goal of repeating as the ECIC Division II champion. The Spartans felt like they had a good chance to do so with the return of leading scorer and rebounder Erica Bradley. Bradley has actually led the Lady Spartans in scoring for each of the past two seasons, but this year, she has taken it to another level. “Her jump shot is one that’s very tough for people to defend, especially forwards,” said Starpoint head coach Megan Rumschik. “They don’t expect her to have the range that she has. She’s hit some threes in a couple games, she runs the floor very well, but I think her biggest strength is being able to hit that jump shot. It causes them to come out, as soon as they start coming out, she’s able to go by them. She’s got the guard’s mentality with a forward’s
height to her.” Every great player always adds something to their game, and for Bradley, it has been her jump sho. She can hit it from every spot on the floor. It doesn’t matter if it’s from the foul line, from the elbow or from three-point range, Bradley can knock it down. It has made her lethal. The junior is averaging a career-high 17 points per game. She’s reached the 20-point plateau three times already, something she attributes to improving her jumper over the summer. “I think the help of my AAU coach helped me improve my jump shot,” said Bradley. “He really helped me out over the summer. It’s my third year on varsity, so I figured I should add in my jump shot just to mix it up. I can also drive to the basket to get the jump shots easier.” Perhaps the biggest improvement in her game has come at the defensive end, where she has been a force in the paint. Bradley is averaging nearly three blocks per game early in the season. She has already surpassed her overall total of 17 from a season ago. The 5-foot-11 center has also come up with 2.5 steals per game so far this year to
JEFFREY T. BARNES
Erica Bradley is averaging a career-high 17 points per game this season. go with her seven rebounds per night, which essentially makes her a magnet for the basketball. Every team hopes that it
can have someone to rely on to protect the rim if the defense initially breaks down, and that is exactly what she has been providing.
“She has great instincts,” said Rumschik. “Her instinct to get near the ball, her instinct to block a shot is great. We really worked on her so
she’s not swiping at the ball. Now she is just jumping in front of it and her hand is getting in the way of it. It’s fun to watch.” It can be a pretty big burden for a player knowing that the offense runs through you and that teams will be keying on you night after night. Bradley has grown comfortable with that reality and, with the help of her teammates, it has gone extremely well through the first half of the season. “I think it’s going pretty well,” said Bradley. “With the help of my teammates passing me the ball, it’s going very well.” Since she is just a junior, it is likely that the Starpoint star pivot player could add yet another aspect to her game. For now, however, Bradley is just focusing on improving as a player and working hard with her team in practice. “I just want to improve in general on my offensive game,” said Bradley. “I just want to get better, work hard in every practice and help my team.” With the guard-forward tandem of senior sniper Jenna Faulkner and Bradley, Starpoint could be a team to watch in Class A2 as sectionals approach.

Stadelmaier, and Drew Idzik also scored for Clarence, and assists were had by Alex Fulfaro (two), Maximus Henning (two), Xavier Thomann, Becigneul, and Stadelmaier. •••
On Jan. 10, Fulfaro led the Stallions with a goal and an assist as the team defeated the Rochester Grizzlies, 2-1. Finn Graham had the other goal for the Stallions while Stadelmaier assisted on Fulfa-

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.

The check presentation was held January 7 at the Harris Hill Elementary PTO meeting and attended by members of the school board, Harris Hill PTO, and representatives from Transitowne. The actual fundraising event was held on October 9, in conjunction with the school’s Open House. Harris Hill Elementary earned a $10 contribution to the school on their behalf from the Chrysler brand by taking a brief test drive in a 2014 model Town & Country minivan—highest ranked in loyalty 12 years in a row—as well as other Chrysler vehicles made available for test drives thanks to Transitowne Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram. “Drive for the Kids is a mutually beneficial program. We are pleased to support our local schools, and enjoy demonstrating a terrific, world class product,” said Tom Shanley, Manager of the Northeast Business Center for Chrysler Group LLC.
Josh Foeller, Transitowne; Cheryl Klemenz & Stephanie Decker, CoPresident’s Harris Hill PTO; Tricia Andrews, Clarence School Board; Chuck Haring, Transitowne. “Parents are genuinely interested in testing our 2014 Chrysler Town & Country minivan with all of the advanced safety, technology, and economy features, and we are happy to help raise extra dollars for the school. Drive for the Kids allows us the opportunity to work together for the kids and everyone has a great time!” At the conclusion of 2014 program, the school with the highest number
of test drives in each one of the five geographic regions (Southeast, Northeast, Midwest, Central, and West) will win an additional $5,000, for a total of $25,000 in additional funding from Chrysler through the Drive for the Kids program. Chrysler supports schools in the communities where the company does business. Since 1993, when Chrysler introduced Drive for the Kids,
requests may range in amounts from $1,000 to $15,000. To qualify, the nonprofit organizations must provide assistance to Erie County residents with medically related conditions while promoting independence
and enhancing their quality of life. Grant proceeds must be used towards programming or operational costs of the non-profit organization. The Maria Love Convalescent Fund is named for its founder,

Farming in New York State is big business, with more than 35,500 farms operating within the state; agribusiness is a $5 billion dollar industry. The Farm Show works to connect the members of this essential industry from equipment providers and farm service agencies to local farmers, agriculturalists, and horticulturists. Exhibitors include Empire Livestock Marketing, Hubner Seed, Jared Kramer Forest Management, Texas Refinery Corp., Teitsworth Trailers, Organic Valley, and NY Beef Producers. For a complete listing of vendors, visit the WNY Farm Show website at wnyfarmshow.

The staff has worked hard to bring the WNY Farm show to the grounds for another great year.” Businesses may continue to apply to become part of the WNY Farm Show through December 31, 2014. The show is a great opportunity for businesses to get out in front of local consumers.
