The EA/Holland football team recorded a win at Eden in its regular-season finale. It will face seventh-seeded Maryvale in the Class B quarterfinals.

I didn’t think we would do something like this. But this was our goal the whole season.

It’s nice to get it.”

The victory over Eden (0-7, 0-6) was too fitting, almost serving as an embodiment of the team’s season-long performance — superb defense joined by game-changing plays on offense, defense or special teams at key junctures.

It was the Blue Devils’

second shutout. They allowed just 196 yards and one red zone trip in the process of brining their points allowed per game down to nine.

Schlenker may not have seen a potential division winner when he walked in last year.

That wasn’t the case during this past training camp.

“We didn’t want to get too hyped up, but we knew we were going to do something

good this year,” said Schlenker, whose continued maturation as a player after not playing his first two years of high school has been huge for EA/Holland.

“We knew there was something special.”

To supplement its airtight “D,” EA/Holland has been consistent with making a couple plays during each win that break things open. One of those Saturday was Connor

Allan’s pick-six from 13 yards out to make it 16-0 with 4:36 left in the third. Another was made by powerful back E.J. Staniszewski, who stuck the dagger in the Raiders early in the fourth with his 65-yard touchdown run on a third and 18.

Orchard Park golf successfully defends ECIC Team Championships trophy

By Aaron Garland SPORTS REPORTER

Orchard Park golf coaches Nate Leary and Mike Boyczuk, with the overall talent on their team, directly correlate putting to winning.

It’s an area they have drilled into their players since practice began in August. Leary said it’s Boyczuk, the assistant coach who mainly focuses on short game, who specifically stressed, above all else, how crucial putting would be to this team meeting its high expectations.

The Quakers bought into the idea, minimized their putts and, as a result, it led to an

undefeated season that ended with a victory at the ECIC Team Championships Monday (Oct. 20) at Tan Tara Golf Club.

OP, the Large School South Division representative in the four-team tournament, shot a 239 to edge out second-place Clarence’s 241 and to claim its second straight title.

It was the Quakers modus operandi that won out in a close match. Their eight starters combined to commit five threeputts, a low number considering Leary said they had as many in 14 in a match this year.

“It’s a process and something you have to work on right at the beginning of the fall season,” Leary said. “Hopefully when you get to the championships you can have five or less three-

CATERING

putts for the entire team.”

OP went 10-0 during the regular season, bringing its league winning streak to 24.

It hasn’t lost a division match since the middle of 2012, when it was 9-1. While a team doesn’t compile a 29-1 mark over three years without a bevy of consistent shot-makers, Leary said putting is the difference in matches against squad’s with similar ball-striking ability — like Clarence on Monday.

“They have seen the past year’s success,” Leary said.

“We have some veterans on the team who understand how important putting is. (Boyczuk) and I have really emphasized putting with them, letting them know how much those strokes can add up to our team’s score.

If you can take a team like this and limit its three-putts to less than five every match, no one would could close to beating it.”

Senior Erich Spitz, the No. 15 ranked ECIC golfer, paced the Quakers with a 37 Monday while sophomore Mitchell Smith (39), juniors Jack Devic (39), Zach Stebbins (40) and Alex Prise (42) and seventh grader Aidan Shaw (42) completed the top-six scorers.

Senior Sydney Shaw, the lone female competitor in ECIC, and seventh grader Jackson Roskow also shot well with a 43 and 45, respectively.

Quakers shut out by fellow AA power Jamestown in Game of the Year

By Aaron Garland SPORTS REPORTER

The Orchard Park football team wanted the win, of course.

But it also knows there is a grander scheme of things, and a game of more magnitude, which could be tough to fathom, at least initially.

All things considered beforehand, Strider Field was to be the site of the 2014 regular-season game of the year in Section VI. Friday (Oct. 17) pinned the area’s top two public schools against each other with the Class AA South title on the line.

Orchard Park travelled to Jamestown for a showdown between rivals. But while the tilt had all the necessary makings for a classic — explosive offenses, annual rivalry, perennial heavyweight programs, division title up for grabs — the Red Raiders ran away with the contest to stomp out any backing of that title.

Jamestown’s defense was flat-out dominant in defeating the well-oiled offensive machine that is the Quakers, 19-0, before an estimated 4,000 in attendance to successfully defend its league crown.

At the end of the day, though, the biggest thing OP, the No. 2 ranked public school in Western New York, lost was bragging rights for the second straight time in the series. And maybe some of the psyche battle.

The fact remains that the Quakers finish 6-1 (4-1) and are AA South’s second seed in Section VI Class AA playoffs, giving them home field for the quarterfinals. They would have turned right around with an even bigger game at hand, regardless of the result. Besides, the OP standard isn’t division crowns — it is chasing sectional championships.

“In the long run, it doesn’t mean much,” said Quakers quarterback Dillon Janca, who came in with 1,356 yards and 20 touchdowns but was just 13 of 30 for 177 yards and three interceptions Friday.

“We are definitely going

Jamestown QB Nikkolas Holland, center, accounted for 270 yards and two scores in the Red Raiders’ 19-0 win over rival OP. to learn from it, and we have a game next week. Playoffs start. That’s the best part of the season. We’re going to leave this behind us, learn from it and go game-by-game from here.”

And the postseason brackets are aligned to where there could be a rematch looming in the AA finals at Ralph Wilson Stadium.

“Either way, whoever wins, both teams have to come back,” OP coach Gene Tundo said.

“Hopefully we see them again.”

Still, it was an impressive statement handed out by Red Raiders, the No.1 public school at 6-1 (5-0). The affair verified how truly great this Jamestown squad is.

The Red Raiders not only limited an OP offense that marched in averaging colossal offensive numbers, posting 51.5 points per game, with its lowest output being 35 (twice), they cut it off.

Athletic running back Terius

Wheatley was out with an injured leg for OP, and 1B option Billy Myers had little room to breath when he touched the ball, finishing with 23 yards on nine carries. Tundo credited defensive linemen Damien Jackson and Joseph Mistretta, who had 10 tackles and a sack, with clogging up the line and paralyzing the run game.

OP was forced to be onedimensional much of the night.

Linebacker Stephen Carlson took advantage of that, picking off Janca twice, with one being returned 55 yards to the house midway through the third quarter, pushing the edge to 19-0.

“They prepared well,” Janca said. “You could tell they played the right defenses and they were in the right spots at the right times. We made some mistakes and we just have to look back on them and fix them for the future.”

Considering how OP rolled

through opposing defenses the first six games, hanging 70 two times, its anemic production was stunning. The Quakers had only three first downs the entire second half, and two of them came during the final minute when the outcome was known.

“They just dominated us defensively,” Tundo said. “They stopped everything we tried to do. You run on first down and they outnumber you at the point of attack and then they play coverage on downs two and three. It’s hard to pass — they have seven guys back in coverage. They just had a good game plan.”

Jamestown, a potent offense itself, averaging 39.3 points per game before taking on OP, wasn’t overpowering, but made plays when it had to. Matt Perla (11 tackles, sack) and Ron Shul (15 tackles) spearheaded a valiant defensive effort by the Quakers.

Carlson played the lead role offensively, as well. The 6-foot5, 200-pound Carlson, a 2013 All-WNY first team selection, finished with five catches for 110 yards and a touchdown.

Red Raiders quarterback Nikkolas Holland went 11 of 28 for 177 yards with a touchdown and two picks while rushing 21 times for 93 yards and a score.

Holland found Carlson on a post route late in the first quarter that went for a 41-yard score. The junior signal caller then found the end zone just before the half, running in a 1-yard keeper with 2:16 left to increase the Red Raiders’ advantage to 12-0.

OP couldn’t string together many consecutive positive plays in the early going, and that trend continued into the evening.

Kevin Goltz was OP’s leading receiver with three grabs totaling 73 yards, with 59 of

those coming on a reception during the team’s first drive.

That helped the Quakers get to the Jamestown 19 before turning it over on downs, and they wouldn’t get as close to the end zone again.

“They are very good on defense and they don’t make mistakes on offense,” Tundo said. “They went up, 12-0, and they could do what they wanted. They could cut loose.

We’re usually the team that is up, 12-0, early. We were in a hole and it was hard to dig out of it.”

Lodowski, Schlenker key to Blue OP’s seasonDevils’ strong year defensively long emphasis on “Title” from page B1 The Blue Devils average 22.7 points per game.

“Big plays, big emotion, basically,” linebacker Dylan Lodowski said about what has drove this season’s success.

“Do our job on defense, give the offense a chance to do its job and everything takes care of itself.”

Lodowski is also a Holland kid who, coupled with Schlenker, gives EA/Holland a forceful core of the defense.

Both seniors, Lodowski and Schlenker recorded tackle numbers of 17 and 12, respectively, against Eden.

Those weren’t aberrations, either. Just standard games for them. Another day at the office.

They are often the tackle leaders, but the likes of Allan, who has four interceptions, lineman Mitch Wrazen, linebacker Nick Potter, defensive end A.J. Perlino, defensive back Tom Volpe, defensive back Brigham Rogers and defensive back Brady Tehan have been reliable in terms of making plays, too.

Fredonia finished with an identical 5-1 division mark as EA/Holland, which won the tiebreaker by virtue of its 28-6 Week Four thumping of the Hillbillies. The Blue Devils did the same thing to the rest of their division opponents outside of Springville.

On top of shutting out Eden, they blanked Pioneer, 22-0, downed Dunkirk, 30-8, and blasted Olean, 28-6. Not exactly nail-biters against teams — at least Dunkirk, Olean and Fredonia — that had real chances to win B South in the later stages of the year.

putting pays off “Champs” from page B1

Leary said it was a process to get the putting to a championship level, but that’s exactly where it was Monday, as the team shot one of its lowest scores of 2014.

Sydney Shaw sank a 55-foot putt on the first hole and made par on three of the first four holes.

On 6, Devic went in the trees off the tee, punched his third shot around a tree and onto the green, where he sank the successive putt to complete his recovery and save par.

In crunch time, Spitz sank a 25-footer on the eighth green for par.

“Putting was one of our focuses of the season, and sure enough their hard work paid off for them,” Leary said. “For just winning by two strokes, those are clutch shots from some of the leaders on our team.

“We have an understanding that just because you shot even par today, when you go out there tomorrow, you still have to earn it,” Leary said. “That is what our players did.”

A week prior, on Oct. 14, three Quakers qualified for sectionals, which take place in the spring, by placing in the top 23 at the ECIC Individual Championships.

Smith tied for third with an 80, finishing a shot behind the winner, Will. North’s Ben Reichert,

who edged Hamburg’s Ian Wilson in a playoff.

Prise’s 84 (tied ninth) earned him a spot in the 72-player sectional field while Spitz was an exempt player after winning ECICs en route to making the Section VI state team as a junior.

He was guaranteed a spot in sectionals for a second time because of that, but still put together an 85, tying him for 14th.

Prise, OP’s No. 1, was the third-ranked ECIC golfer in 2014 while Smith finished as the ninth-best in the rankings, which are based on nine-hole averages.

The Section VI Championships will be held at River Oaks Golf Club in Grand Island in May. Leary has no doubt his players are going to enter the tournament prepared.

“Those are three guys who don’t need any motivation to go work on their games on their own,” Leary said. “As soon as they are able to get outside they will start working on their games.

You will see them in the dome over the winter, as well.”

Devic (12th), Stebbins (18th), Aidan Shaw (19th), Sydney Shaw (24th) and Roskow (52nd) also ranked high among the 235 ECIC golfers this season.

Horvatits, Hoffman qualify for sectionals

By Aaron Garland SPORTS REPORTER

After stumbling out of the gates, the East Aurora girls tennis team is finishing its season right where it always tends to be.

The Lady Blue Devils won a share of the ECIC IV title with Springville and qualified a doubles team for the Section VI Championships, which take place Friday and Saturday (Oct. 24 and 25) at Village Glen Tennis Club. Those are two goals set annually by EA coach Gary Schutrum, who has won at least a split of the league crown in each of his five years with the team.

At the ECIC doubles championships Oct. 17 and 18, junior Caroline Horvatits and senior Gabby Hoffman finished sixth to advance to the 16-team sectional tournament. Senior Rosanne Carbone, EA’s third singles player during the year, and Carly Hoffmann (senior) were also paired at ECICs, losing in the second round after defeating Williamsville East’s second squad.

As the Horvatits-Hoffman duo took off this year, so did the Lady Blue Devils, who went 8-5 (5-1 ECIC IV). Horvatits began the season playing singles, which she had limited prior experience doing. Through a few matches, including a season-opening loss to Springville, Schutrum slid her into the first doubles slot with Hoffman, and the combo responded by going 8-2 together, not losing a division match.

The move paid dividends, as they have become one of the best combos in the section.

“In the back of my mind, after we lost a couple matches early, I said ‘You know, maybe I should focus

a little more on the postseason and focus on some guaranteed points when we play our matches,’” Schutrum said. “That’s kind of exactly what happened.”

It was a natural fit.

Hoffman’s consistency and powerful forehand complements Horvatits’ swift movement well.

At ECICs, they took down teams from Cheektowaga and Clarence before the first-seeded pair from Orchard Park, Shayleen Brennan and Rachel Johnson, defeated them in the quarterfinals. But the wins placed Horvatits and Hoffman in the top eight to move on to sectionals.

The junior-senior combination made it to Day Two of the tournament to determine the fifth- through eighth-place finishers, beating a Will. East team, then falling to Will. North in a close two-set match.

Schutrum said Horvatits and Hoffman receiving the chance to compete against upper-level opponents, specifically those from OP, was an advantageous warm-up for sectionals.

Schutrum getting a more comprehensive look at the strategy portion of the team’s game was, too. He was able to solely watch one match rather than the standard in the regular season — five at once.

“It gives you a true picture — what formations worked, who served in what location,” Schutrum said. “I think we learned some things (at ECICs) that might help us moving into sectionals.”

The corresponding move to Horvatits shifting to doubles was Carbone stepping into the third singles spot.

The senior was 7-5 overall while Hoffmann was 9-2 as a second doubles player.

EA also had two partici-

from his ECIC I-winning team.

It had a much more active response than Dannecker’s, scoring five minutes later to grab control of the game again. The No. 2-seeded Quakers didn’t look back from there. Connor Saeli fi nished with a goal and

three assists as OP ran away with a 4-1 victory over the seventh-seeded Blue Devils.

“I shut my mouth and I wanted to see how you guys responded,” Dannecker said. “You need to know in the playoffs that you have to pick up your level of play. It took that goal to elevate our play to where it should be in a playoff game. Sometimes you have to face a little adversity and it was nice to do that and come away with a win.”

Dannecker was given the confidence to employ his strategy because the roster is senior-centric. And the defending of Ati Mraz, scoring touches of Ryan McMaster (two goals) and Noah Kohl (one goal) and passing of Saeli — all seniors — ensured that tying goal wasn’t the start of a slide that ended the season.

The Quakers (12-2-3, 8-1-3), of course, are no strangers to big moments these days, making the AA finals in 2013 and winning the division this season for the first time since 1997.

The veteran core wasn’t prepared to pack it in, and it made that abundantly clear.

“We have a good group of senior leaders and you could see in their body language that they knew the importance of the moment and they stepped up,” Dannecker said.

The most impactful se-

nior, and player, Wednesday was Saeli, who had a role in all of OP’s goals.

“Connor was awesome,” Dannecker said. “He controls the midfield and is very calm under pressure. He is a tough kid who goes about his business and can really move the ball well against this kind of physical team.

It’s what I expect of him and he played great.”

McMaster scored in the sixth minute off a Saeli feed, and despite OP carrying that lead into the half, Dannecker thought it played a flat first 40. The aggression was down and “we were playing at a practice pace,” Dannecker said.

Contributing to that was a nine-day layoff between games — OP last played Oct. 13 against Nichols, a 3-2 win. It took a goal from Ken West’s Robert Kirisits early in the second to cue the postseason drive the Quakers have proved is in them.

Shortly after, in the 53rd minute, Saeli crossed a ball from left to right in transition to Kohl, whose initial point-blank shot was saved, but he quickly deposited the rebound. Saeli added a goal of his own in the 68th minute and McMaster made it a two-goal night with a marker in the 78th.

“As a team, we responded, and I think that is important,” Saeli said. “It’s a lot of our senior years, so we

really want to show up in the playoffs and play our hardest. That’s sort of what the seniors want to bring to the table.”

Corey Sikora notched 12 saves for the Blue Devils (610-2, 5-7-2 Niagara Frontier League) while Adam Hansgen stopped four of the five shots he faced for OP. Kole Marquardt assisted on Ken West’s goal. The junior blasted the post from 25 yards out on a free kick and Kirisits was there to clean it up.

Next up for the Quakers is third-seeded Clarence, which OP tied and defeated during the regular season.

The semifinal matchup will be played at 5 p.m. Monday (Oct. 27) at Hamburg. It is a rematch of the 2013 AA final won by the Red Devils, 2-0.

The other semifinal clash, top-seeded Niagara-Wheatfield versus No. 4 Lancaster, takes place at Hamburg directly following OPClarence.

“You have to hand it to Kenmore West,” Dannecker said. “They played us tough and they were physical. It was the kind of battle that we needed, going up against, eventually, the Clarences and the Lancasters. We needed this battle.”

OP girls tennis serving up success pants in the ECIC singles tournament — Oct. 10 and 11 at Village Glen.

First singles player Ava Danieu, an eighth grader, and Zoe Sharp, a senior second singles competitor, lost competitive first-round matches at the championships.

Sharp’s was especially thrilling. Against a Will.

East player, she lost the first set, 6-0, and trailed in the second, 4-1. But she fought back to grab a 7-5 win, and fell, 6-4, in the deciding third set.

“I just give Zoe so much credit,” Schutrum said.

“The girl she played had a really good swing and was a really good player. But Zoe got her off her game and almost pulled it off.”

Sharp was 11-2 on the year, going 6-0 in ECIC IV play. It was her neversay-die attitude that usually won out for her.

“She wills her way to victory,” Schutrum said. “She has some good strokes, but she is just smart on the court and sticks with her game plan. She is a slow-starter — of her 11 wins she probably lost the first set in six matches, but still came back and found a way to win. She would really exploit her opponent’s weakness.”

As far as the Section VI doubles tournament goes, the top three teams advance to states. Schutrum said the steady, heady play of Horvatits and Hoffman will keep them in the running for one of the openings.

“Our girls aren’t big-time servers,” Schutrum said.

“I think we have to mix up formations and not let the other team get into a groove. That’s pretty critical to their chances to be successful.”

By Aaron Garland SPORTS REPORTER

As if not losing a league match in a decade wasn’t enough vindication, the Orchard Park girls tennis team outlined its supremacy in Section VI at the ECIC Championships the last two weekends.

Senior Haley Hollins won the ECIC singles tournament Oct. 10 and 11 at Village Glen Tennis Club while in the doubles championships at the same location last weekend (Oct. 17 and 18), it was an all-OP final. The second-seeded pairing of sophomore Kristen Zablonski and freshman Lauren Karoglan took down senior teammates Shayleen Brennan and Rachel Johnson, the No. 1 seed, 6-3, 6-3, in the finals.

The 1-2 OP ending easily pits both duos in the Section VI Championships Friday and Saturday (Oct. 24 and 25) at the Village Glen. The singles and doubles competitions will take place there over the weekend, with the top three finishers in each advancing to states.

Based on volume alone the Lady Quakers have a reasonable shot at writing in multiple state entrants, with almost half of their 12-girl roster in the mix to qualify.

But then there is the physical evidence — the fact that Hollins has dropped only a few games in first singles play during an undefeated year. And that Johnson lost just twice out of 10 league matches from her second singles spot and Brennan, the third singles player, wiped through ECIC I competition without a defeat.

There is also the undeniable chemistry between Karoglan and Zablonski, the first doubles team that didn’t lose during the season.

It adds up to pure dominance from a team that went 17-0 and 10-0 in ECIC I to

win its 10th consecutive outright division title. The Lady Quakers ensured that distinction when they took down Lancaster (8-2 ECIC I) on Monday (Oct. 20) in the finale.

It’s the 11th straight time OP, which hasn’t lost a league match since splitting the two-game season series with Clarence in 2004, has won at least a share of the championship (it was a cochampion Clarence in ‘04).

“I can truly say that I am blessed with such dedicated, focused girls who realize they have a responsibility and take it very seriously,” said OP coach Sandy Trampert, who is in her 14th year. “The thing with Orchard Park tennis is there is a tradition. It really is neat to be part of something that has lasted so long. I am humbled by it and I feel blessed to be a part of it.”

Hollins returned to OP after taking last school season off to participate in USTA tournaments and promptly worked her way to the throne as the top player at ECICs. The senior didn’t even come close to dropping a match during the season.

“She has come back with such poise and determination,” Trampert said. “Her skill level is just become so refined. It doesn’t matter who she is paying on the court — she has the same intensity. She doesn’t take anybody for granted. She is out there to play her game.

She has such a reach and commands a court with her long limbs. It’s a real delight to see.”

Trampert attributed much of the fine work done by the Karoglan-Zablonski duo to them competing together over the summer at Orchard Park Country Club.

“They feel very comfortable as a doubles team,” Trampert said. “That experience has just continued right from summer through

the fall. Kristen is the more experienced player. She just has that little bit of maturity.

But the great thing about Lauren is she is such a calm, cool, collected player. They know each other’s style.”

With Hollins competing against top-end talent in outside tournaments and both doubles teams having states experience, nerves shouldn’t hinder OP’s chances of placing high this weekend.

Interestingly, it was Johnson and Zablonski teaming in 2013 to win ECICs and sectionals en route to going to states while Brennan and former OP student Nikki Legler formed a combo that did the same two years ago.

Now, all three are striving for another trip to states, just with a different doubles make-up.

Eighth grader Lilly Sullivan, who was a second doubles member during the season, also played at the ECIC singles championships. She won her first match but was eliminated in the next round.

Madigan Humiston, Jessica Skwara, Jessica Visco, Franny McKernon, Jordie Moore and Becca Smeader round out OP’s roster.

Trampert noted it was a true top-to-bottom team effort en route to an unbeaten mark in 2014.

“Our success is not just due to our top players,” the coach said. “It’s due to a very cohesive team, all the way down to our 12th player. Top players play with our exhibition players when we do drills. We try to do bonding activities to make our practices fun.

They all really enjoy each other’s company. That really contributes to being a successful team.”

PRO FOOTBALL CORNER

FROM the SIDELINES Bills’ Orton getting involved, makes appearance at Doodle Bugs

By Tom Gallagher SPORTS EDITOR

Having led the Bills to a pair of last-second comeback victories in his first three games under center for them, Kyle Orton has certainly endeared himself to fans in Buffalo of late.

He endeared himself to a much younger contingent of fans on Tuesday (Oct. 21).

Orton traded in his playbook for a children’s book when he made an appearance at Doodle Bugs! on Red Tail Drive in Orchard Park to read Rosemary Wells’ “Bunny Cakes” to 3- and 4-year-olds at the daycare center.

The 10th-year NFL veteran has only been in Buffalo for a couple of months since signing as a free agent at the conclusion of training camp, but he’s already immersed himself in the Buffalo community.

“Everything has been great [since coming to Buffalo],” Orton said. “Everyone has been great to us.

We live in a great neighborhood and have made a

bunch of friends already.

“It’s nice being in a small, close-knit community.”

Orton and his wife, Bridget, are tied to Doodle Bugs through their daughter Olivia’s enrollment in the program there. Olivia, 3, was among the many children on hand to listen to Orton read Wells’ tale of a grocery store-bound Bunny on a quest to bake a cake.

Orton, who grew up enjoying children’s books like “Curious George” and the “Berenstain Bears”, suggested that it was a gratifying experience.

“I love being around kids and anything you can do to help kids is great,” he said. “[Doodle Bugs] has been great to us. Coming to Buffalo late, we got Olivia right into school and she loves it here.

“Friday afternoons, I come pick her up here with my wife and it’s the best half-hour of my week. So anything I can do to come and help out I’m going to do.”

Orton is one of a flurry of Bills that have gotten involved in the Buffalo community of late. Among

TOM GALLAGHER

Bills QB Kyle Orton, whose 3-year-old daughter Olivia is a student at Doodle Bugs, read to a group of children at the daycare center on Oct. 21. them, center Eric Wood teamed up with Carly’s Club for a Jocktails event a few weeks ago, Keith Rivers appeared at PS 79 in Buffalo in support of the school’s launch of a Fuel Up to Play 60 campaign, and Brandon Spikes chaired the Buffalo Zoo’s ‘Adopt an Animal’ program and appeared at the zoo for a meet and great with fans in September.

Additionally, a host of Bills are involved in the

organization’s ticket donation program and were in Niagara Falls for the Bills’ ‘Pinktober’ event earlier this month.

“We have a lot of guys on our team that give back to the community and spend a lot of time and effort doing so,” Orton said. “I think all of our players know it’s important and they do a good job with it.”

While Orton and the Bills were off on Tuesday, with a visit to the AFC East’s last-

place 1-6 New York Jets on the horizon Sunday (Oct. 26), it was back to the playbook for them on Wednesday.

The team eked out a home victory over Minnesota last week when Orton guided the offense on what seemed like an improbable 80-yard drive in the final minutes that was capped off by top pick Sammy Watkins’ game-winning touchdown reception with 1 second left.

It was Orton’s second display of late-game heroics since joining the Bills.

He led the team on a lastminute drive against Detroit two weeks ago and helped to set up Dan Carpenter’s game-winning 58yard field goal with 4 seconds left.

“Hopefully we don’t have to make it a fourthquarter game all the time and we can play better earlier in the game, but the wins have been exciting,” said Orton, who backed up Tony Romo in Dallas the last two seasons. “They’ve been fun. We’ll take them any way we can get them and hopefully we can keep

on doing it.”

It’s possible if Orton continues to put up the numbers he has through three games. In leading the Bills to a 2-1 record since taking over for second-year QB EJ Manuel, Orton’s thrown for 890 yards and five touchdowns, numbers that prorate to over 4,500 yards and 25 touchdowns in a 16-game season.

He’s just grateful to have the opportunity to start again.

“I love it here,” Orton said. “I’ve made that known and I think everybody in the organization knows how much I appreciate that they’ve brought me in.”

The Bills have a chance to improve to 5-3 when they take on the Jets at 1 p.m. inside MetLife Stadium. The Jets have lost six straight since opening the season with a win. Percy Harvin, who New York traded a conditional pick for last week, will make his Jets debut as a receiver and kick returner.

The game will be broadcast on CBS.

DeMarsh earns 100th victory, still has one goal in mind

By Jonah Bronstein SPORTS REPORTER

Nick DeMarsh took over the struggling women’s soccer team at Buffalo State College a dozen years ago with one goal in mind.

“I wanted to win the conference and represent this school on the national level at the NCAAs,” said DeMarsh, a three-time All-SUNYAC player for the Bengals who assisted the men’s program for four years prior to becoming the women’s head coach.

That has not happened yet.

“So we still have some work to do,” DeMarsh is quick to point out.

But the program has come a long way under DeMarsh’s direction.

DeMarsh entered this weekend’s homestand with 101 career victories.

In the 21 seasons prior to

DeMarsh taking over, the Bengals won 114 games.

“I have to give a lot of credit to Jerry Boyes, our athletic director, for allowing me to build the program and build the team,” DeMarsh said.

“This was a situation that really needed to be built from the ground up.”

DeMarsh was teaching at Native American Magnet school and coaching the Bengals part-time during his first two seasons, before Boyes promoted him to a full-time coaching position.

“When you are a part-time coach, you are going to get part-time results,” DeMarsh said. “We really didn’t start winning until I got the job fulltime.”

The Bengals have posted winning records in seven of the past 11 seasons, and last year finished second in the SUNYAC. With a very young roster this

season, the Bengals are 6-7-1 and 3-4 in conference play.

Buffalo State hosts New Paltz (8-6-2, 2-3-2) at 3 p.m.

Friday. A win would solidify the Bengals at sixth place in the SUNYAC standings and keep them out of the play-in round of the postseason tournament.

“We want to take it one game at a time, and really, all that matters for us is our next game,” DeMarsh said.

Buffalo State hosts defending champion Oneonta at 10 a.m. Saturday and wraps up the regular season Oct. 29 with a non-conference home game against St. John Fisher.

When DeMarsh took over the Bengals program he had players who weren’t even starters on their high school teams.

DeMarsh, who lives in North Buffalo and is the director of coaching for the Kenmore Soccer Club, has

COURTESY OF BUFFALO STATE ATHLETICS

Nick DeMarsh has 101 career coaching wins. extended his recruiting range throughout the state and into New Jersey – and even has one player on the team from California.

But the Bengals are captained by local recruits in senior Liz Malinowski (Williamsville South) and junior Gabrianna Boldinski (Ken-

more East).

“Liz came to us with great experience in terms of highlevel club soccer and has really learned the ropes of college soccer,” DeMarsh said. “She’s a very smart player, a good student, and a good example for our younger players.”

Boldinski is “probably the best center defender in the SUNYAC,” DeMarsh said. “She’s an absolute monster of a ball-winner. I could probably player her at any position on the field.”

Sophomrore midfielder Katie Shaw (Newfane) has been key contributor for the Bengals this year and is pushing to be a captain next season, DeMarsh said.

With 100 wins in his review mirror, DeMarsh has no plans to stop before he reaches his ultimate goal.

“I’m pretty stubborn,” he said. “I would never leave the job undone.”

Simonick inducted into Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame

By Catherine Miller THE SUN CORRESPONDENT

It’s a good time to be a sports fan in Buffalo. The Pegula family has made more headlines than money recently – and the players on the Bills and Sabres are doing their best to make their owners proud.

As Buffalo’s name rises to the top pages of nationwide sports news outlets, the newest group of local sports honorees were inducted into the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame on Oct 16 – and one of the inductees was the Old First Ward’s Robert “Rip” Simonick.

By many measures, Rip Simonick has led a fairly basic life. He grew up in the Old First Ward amidst a great group of family and friends and attended Bishop Timon High School. He married the

love of his life, MaryAnn “Maize” McGuire, a Mount Mercy Academy alumni. He took a job just a few blocks away from his childhood home and has worked for the same company for the past 44 years, presently living about a half-hour from his original place of birth. Pretty standard by most counts.

So why, then, when you ask a man like former Sabre Rob Ray to tell you one thing about Simonick, he just throws his hands up in the air and tells you that it’s impossible to say just one thing?

Simonick doesn’t work for just any company. Simonick, known to many, is the head equipment manager of the Buffalo Sabres.

He has designed specialized gear for players when they were in need, learned players’ preferences on how they liked their skates sharpened, and when equipment

was all set and they just needed someone to talk to – Simonick was there.

What you may not realize is that Simonick has been with the Sabres since day one – and has never left – becoming the most skilled and tenured equipment manager in the league.

He was there for the ups – like his favorite seasons in 1975 and 1999 – and he refuses to talk about the lows of the “no goal” days.

Rip’s knowledge and expertise in the NHL goes well beyond his title as head equipment manager for the Sabres.

“Rip is just a tremendous guy,” said Rob Ray of the man he introduced at the awards banquet for the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame. “Everybody in the NHL franchise knows him and everyone respects him.

He is the father of the fran-

chise.”

Ray continued to share personal thoughts on his admiration for the man that knew exactly what equipment Ray needed to play and the words he needed to hear before heading onto the ice.

“We were rookies together,” stated Gilbert Perreault, who took center ice in 1970 as Rip stood behind the scenes making sure the players had all they needed to play in the Sabres’ inaugural season, “Rip was a great guy then, and he’s a great guy now.”

Other hockey names mimicked the views of Ray and Perreault. Ray rattled off dozens of other NHL names that look up to Simonick, the renowned equipment guru.

Ice manager Bob Strianese and Digger Kennedy, father of NHL player Tim Kennedy, both spoke highly of their friendship with Si-

monick. Much of Simonick’s family still lives in the Old First Ward, and many attended the GBSHOF awards dinner, sharing similar thoughts on the greatness of Simonick. He had more family and friends attend the awards dinner than any other inductee.

Simonick never stepped out on a professional field in uniform, never scored the winning goal and was never nominated as an MVP. Still, his name is known in the sports industry better than most and for more decades than many, and he is the only member of the NHL franchise to work from day one to today.

Many NHLers state that it’s Simonick’s personality that makes him unique. In addition to his equipment expertise, it is his ability to listen when players need listening to that endears him

to so many. And if you ask Simonick – he believes he’s important to the game on a very basic level.

“Hey, you can’t play the game without equipment,” Simonick said with a smile.

Whether talking about hockey or life in general, Simonick is correct – and he has definitely brought forth the right equipment to help bring out the best in our players from the days of the French Connection, to the seasons when Ray and Brad May battled in corners with opposing players, to the present-day Pegula era.

With everything that he has given to the game of hockey, there is one thing that he would like to get from it in return, and that is to see Lord Stanley’s Cup in Buffalo. But for now, he’s content to join a host of great names in the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame.

Military Times – an independent news and information organization 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 provide 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-Niagara 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 provide 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.

Many Americans can say they owe their love of reading to a certain television phenomenon that broke the barriers between reading and TV, created right here in Buffalo.

Running for more than two decades, and reaching out to 6.5 million students nationwide, “Reading Rainbow” on PBS became the most frequently watched program in schools.

And Tony Buttino, receiver of five Emmys for co-executive producing the show, expresses his gratitude to his hometown for making it all possible years later.

“Thanks to the people of Western New York who came together… they were gifted” Buttino said. “And as the saying goes ‘if you do something, you are doing something for the child’ and in this case it seemed to prosper.”

And the idea behind “Reading Rainbow?”

It was due to a problem well known in education as the ‘summer loss phenomenon.’

This commonly occurs with students who do not read during summer break and have a hard time catching up to the drilling school routine come September.

“So we thought, ‘maybe we can look at a show that might help youngsters get motivated to read over

the summer’” Buttino explained.

A graduate of Bishop Timon High School and Ithica College, Buttino started his broadcasting career as a cameraman for Channel 17.

He spent 40 years behind the scenes of WNED-TV working as a foreman, director, production manager, and finally overseeing the development of “Reading Rainbow.”

The goal of this program was to advocate children’s reading comprehension at the elementary level and through the help of local librarians, reading teachers, and college professors this goal turned into a reality.

“The Buffalo library system and reading teachers were very cordial and we even got some grants for kids to get some of these books. It all came together very nicely” Buttino recalled. “We worked with West Seneca schools and the West Seneca library to pull this idea together.”

The format of “Reading Rainbow” took young viewers on TV field trips using an animated story with illustrations from a particular book. It also promoted Featured Stories, where kids critiqued books and ended the program with catchy phrases such as “I read this book, and you should too!”

Buttino reflected that the main challenge after the creation of “Reading Rainbow” was to promote the TV show in an era where books and television were not friendly to each other. Librarians at the time pretty much said “turn off the TV and read the book.”

The concept of combining the two was never seen before and transformed the learning spectrum for ages to come. Thankfully, Buffalo libraries were open to new ideas and helped create a segway for the show to flourish.

“I realize as an adult that we tend to prejudge people sometimes” Buttino said. “We were prejudging librarians and reading

teachers with the idea that maybe they won’t participate, but we misread it. It just happened that they decided ‘yes let’s do this together.’”

Buttino recently received the “Behind the Scenes” Award at the Buffalo Broadcasters Association Awards celebration on Sept. 18 for his work at WNED-TV. He was inducted into the BBA 18th annual Hall of Fame along with Jack Armstrong, Carl Lam, WBLK Radio, Chris Musial, Susan King, Bill Lacy and Don Postles.

Legislators to Praise and hope from American speak in support Heart Association as Cuomo of school aid signs ‘CPR in Schools’ bill restoration

The Erie County Association of School Boards releases its 2014 State of the Schools report on Friday, Oct. 24 detailing the financial, program and job impact on area school districts since the start of the Great Recession, and several area lawmakers will be on hand to show their support of restoration of state funding.

“Area school districts have lost more than $400 million through the state’s Gap Elimination Adjustment, when New York State reclaimed education aid to help put its own financial house in order,” said ECASB Director Jane Burzynski. “With New York State now operating on a surplus, and many area school districts facing insurmountable fiscal stress, we need the leadership of the WNY Delegation in supporting the stability of education in our region.”

Senators Patrick Gallivan, Mark Grisanti, and Tim Kennedy and Assembly representatives Jane Corwin, Michael Kearns, Sean Ryan, and Robin Schimminger are scheduled to participate.

Interim Erie 1 BOCES Superintendent Lynda Quick (District Superintendent of Cattaraugus Allegany BOCES) and ECASB Legislative Team Leader Scott Johnson (Sweet Home Board of Education) also will speak.

The State of the Schools document is a collection of profiles submitted by school districts on the consequences of funding taken via the Gap Elimination Adjustment, totaling more than $400 million over the past five years. With the infeasibility of replacing

such sums with local funds, districts have systematically cut staff, programs, and/ or drawn down their fund balances.

The consequences are stark, according to many Superintendents quoted in the report: “The lack of financial support from the state, coupled with the tax levy cap and now tax freeze incentive, will capsize districts in the near future,” said Depew Superintendent Jeffrey Rabey.

“Once our fund balance is depleted and significant unbudgeted items occur, the District risks debt default (financial insolvency). There is no more cushion, and no place left to make significant cuts,” said Cheektowaga Superintendent Dennis Kane.

“While New York State has begun taking back less each year, it is still taking, and is operating with a surplus and with a brighter financial picture thanks to large cash settlements from sanctions against several financial firms. Now is the time for restoration of the funding taken by the Gap Elimination Adjustment,” said Burzynski.

“Dismantling school districts is not a strategy, it’s a disaster. There’s just not much left to cut, and districts have adjusted by using their fund balances as directed by the state, and they have moved more and more to functional consolidation and shared services, but realistically, broader state support is needed to adequately fund education. It just cannot be sustained at the local level, certainly it cannot be sustained with less and less funding,” furthered Burzynski.

They have traveled to Albany to meet with legislators; they held a CPR Rally at the Capitol; they have written letters to the editor; they have given countless media interviews; they have tweeted and they have phoned.

After learning that Gov. Cuomo signed the CPR in Schools bill on Tuesday, six women who lost children to sudden cardiac arrest are optimistic that the New York will join the 19 other states that ensure students learn CPR before graduation.

“My daughter Emily was 14 when she took her last breath in my arms,” said Annette Adamczak of Akron, who, on Sunday, orchestrated a CPR Flash Mob on the fields near where her daughter collapsed. “Governor Cuomo has used his heart in signing this bill, and done his part to make sure all New York students are trained in CPR. If I could turn back the hands of time, I would give my hands the knowledge that could have saved a life - my child’s life.”

“Five years later I still wonder why? With so many people there that that night why isn’t Dominic here?” said Melinda Murray of Queens, whose son Dominic died of sudden cardiac arrest when he was 17. “The answer is clear. No one knew what to do right away. Thank you, Governor Cuomo, for ensuring our next generation knows what to do in the precious minutes it takes to save a life.”

The signed bill now goes to the state Commissioner of Education, who has 180 days to recommend to the Board of Regents that they include CPR and AED instruction in the curriculum. The Regents have 60 days to act after the commissioner’s report.

“My son Louis never had a chance at survival,” said Karen Acompora of Northport, whose son was 14 when he died of sudden cardiac arrest. Acompora was instrumental in passing Louis’ Law, which requires that an AED be on-site in public places where large amounts of people gather.

Since that law went into effect in 2002, more than 80 lives have been saved.

“I applaud Gov. Cuomo for signing the CPR in Schools bill, and bringing the state of New York closer to creating a generation of life savers,” Acompora said. “He honors

Louis and the other children whose lives were cut short by signing this bill. We are almost there. Now it is up to the State Education Department to do the right thing.”

“My son was 16 when he died of an enlarged heart,” said Audrey Linguanti of Spring Valley. “Since then I have been working hard to pass the CPR in schools bill, in his memory. Governor Cuomo’s signature on this bill is a good step toward saving so many lives – like Vincent wanted to when he joined the local fire department. Thank you, Governor.”

“The pain we have over losing our children never ends,” said Suzy McCarthy of Evans, whose daughter Madison was 5 when sudden cardiac arrest stole her life. “Thank you, Governor Cuomo, for realizing that time is critical – let’s get the students of New York trained so that we can save, not lose, lives.”

“We will miss Robbie all of our lives,” said Jill Levine of Merrick, whose son was 9 when he died. “It has taken us years to get to this point. Thank you to Gov. Cuomo for signing the CPR in Schools bill. I hope the State Education Department quickly finalizes recommendations to ensure students learn CPR. It is within their power to prevent more senseless deaths in New York.”

“Governor Cuomo’s signature on this bill has the potential to make New York

a safer state for all,” said Dan Moran, chair of the New York State Advocacy Committee of the American Heart Association. “Most of the 424,000 sudden cardiac arrest deaths that happen each year happen in the home. Having CPR performed doubles or triples the chances of survival for victims of sudden cardiac arrest. All of us applaud Gov. Cuomo for signing this bill, and hope that the Commissioner of Education and the Board of Regents take the steps that will empower our students by teaching them Hands-Only CPR.” “I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the Governor for recognizing the life-saving potential of this legislation,” said Assemblyman Harvey Weisenberg, who authored and sponsored the bill (A9298). “This legislation will help ensure more New Yorkers are prepared to perform CPR and by equipping our kids with this knowledge, we can prevent unnecessary deaths.”

Weisenberg was also the sponsor of Louis’ Law. “Most people are surprised to learn CPR isn’t taught to our kids before they graduate,” said state Sen. Mark Grisanti, sponsor of the bill in the Senate (S7096).

“Teaching CPR is just common sense. Schools prepare students with essential life skills, and CPR skills will make our communities safer, year after year. I’m proud to have sponsored the CPR in

Schools bill. Nineteen other states have a CPR in Schools law. Let’s get New York in the top 20.”

“One training session, one class period could mean the difference in a life,” said Adamczak. “One life may not seem like much, but to that person’s family, it is the world.”

Why Teach CPR in Schools? · Over 400,000 out-ofhospital cardiac arrests occur annually in the United States. · Sadly, about 90 percent of victims die most likely because they don’t receive timely CPR. · Three to Five minutes this is the difference between life and death. · A victim’s best chance at survival is receiving bystander CPR until EMTs arrive. · Given right away, CPR doubles or triples survival rates. · Teaching students CPR could save thousands of lives by filling our community with lifesavers.

About 80 percent of outof-hospital cardiac arrests happen at home. The life saved will likely be a loved one.

So far, 19 states across the country have already passed laws requiring every high school student to be CPRtrained before graduation, and it’s paying off.

Hands-only CPR makes it easy. Now CPR can be taught in less than one class period.

Female Standup.

Though Liebman has experienced multiple noteworthy moments in career, her most memorable moment was performing on “America’s Got Talent.”

“Performing on stage at Radio City has been highlight of my career,” Liebman said. “More people saw me on that show than every other show I was ever on combined.”

“America’s Got Talent” brought more exposure to Liebman’s name and knack for comedy, but what she couldn’t do on the show while on stage was interact with audience members.

“My favorite thing is performing live in a club and getting gritty,” she said. “It’s like there’s an inside joke with the audience when it’s live. It’s

ing forward to entertaining them. I heard the food is pretty good too. Any food is good as long as I’m not cooking it.”

Her show will contain new material as well as a lot of jokes about her parents, husband and two stepsons.

“They’re always trying to help me come up with new jokes about themselves,” Liebman said.

Besides performing stand-up around the country, Liebman and her husband, Jeff, are currently writing a musical about stand-up comedy titled “Home on Tuesday.”

“My husband is very musical,” Liebman said. Jeff’s father and uncle, The Sherman Brothers, wrote music for many famous Disney films.

Liebman on the other hand is new to this side of the en-

Experience this interaction first hand when Liebman brings her stand-up show to Helium Comedy Club, located at 30 Mississippi St. in Buffalo. Performances begin at 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 30; and 7:30 and 10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31 and Saturday, Nov. 1.

The collaboration brought it out of me.”
