SUBMITTED

Academy students attended a Clarence Chamber of Commerce Roundtable on Global Economic Trends held at Clarence High School.

By Alicia Greco THE SUN EDITOR

This June, the Clarence Academy of Business and Finance will hit a milestone: it’s first graduating class.

“We originally stared the academy in October 2010,” said Dawn Snyder, executive vice president of the advisory board for that academy. “We’re happy JEFFREY T. BARNES about reaching that milestone.”

Under the National Academy Foundation — a national network of career academies — the Clarence Academy of Business and Finance works under a mission “to prepare our youth for college and career success using 21st century The world giraffe popu- skills through an interdiscilation is diminishing, with plinary approach.”

While roaming the halls of this weekend’s Buffalo Auto Show, make sure to “spot” the Towne MINI giraffe-wrapped MINI Coo-

Community Papers of Western New York and Towne MINI are excited to be partnering with one of our areas greatest community resources, the Buffalo Zoo. All proceeds from ticket purchases will be donated to the Zoo, to help fund the building of a giraffe shade structure.

was implemented and spearheaded by Maryellen Kloss, president of the Clarence Central School District Board of Education.

“Over five years ago, the [Clarence] Board of Education looked for an initiative to prepare our students for college and career success.

This included financial literacy and career exploration through internship opportunities using an interdisciplinary approach,” Kloss said.

“To me, it was important for our students to go out and see and explore the careers they were interested in pursuing.”

Overall, these NAF schools “try to incorporate education with real, live, on-the-job training and work-based learning,” Snyder said.

Students will participate in mock interviews, internships, workshops and lectures to help prepare them for their future.

Students get real world preparation at Academy of Business, Finance Academy from Page 1 Kloss continued, “The program is a very important addition for our district as it offers students a challenging opportunity to network, ask questions and meet people in professional venues. It doesn’t matter what a student in interested in studying. The skills they develop are important for them as they move to making college and career decisions,” Kloss added. “They may discover they don’t like the field they thought they wanted to pursue. They may find a new direction. These are opportunities for them to learn about themselves.”

Any local students within the Clarence Central School District that are interested in participating must undergo an application process their freshman year of high school. The program runs from sophomore year through senior year.

The window for the next three-year program has just closed.

“We had a significant number of applicants,” she said. Each student will follow a specific curriculum. If a student meets all requirements, including an internship during the summer going into senior year, that student will graduate with a NAF certificate.

Throughout the year, the academy’s advisory board is tasked with organizing field trips particular to the program, work-based learning, assistance providing paid internships. That board will meet on a monthly basis at the high school.

There is also an opportu-

For a fee through the academy, students may take a course to become Microsoft-certified.

“I think the key in my mind is the practical experience they gain. It makes a difference. It gets kids to think about what they’re going to do,” she said.

“We’re hoping, as we move forward, we can build this library, if you will, of available businesses. That way we can directly meet the needs and interests of the students.”

Academy of Business and Finance students will

also have the opportunity to work with local schools like Niagara University and Canisius College.

“Business teachers, high school administration, curriculum, community leaders and the board of education worked for two years to prepare our district to be designated an Academy of Business and Finance.

This included the development of the program goals, course selection and internship requirements,” Kloss said. “The academy board continues to meet monthly to find internships for our students, hear from the students of the academy and to

plan events. We welcome community members who would like be mentors or offer internship opportunities for the students. The three year program will graduate our first cohort of 36 students. Next year, graduates number over 60.”

Snyder added, “We are always looking for internship providers as well as work-based learning opportunities or field trips for our students.”

Timothy Pazda recipient of Clarence ‘Citizen of the Year’ award

By Alicia Greco THE SUN EDITOR

This is part three of a fourpart series featuring a profile on award recipients for the Clarence Chamber of Commerce’s upcoming annual Awards Dinner.

About 22 years ago, when Timothy Pazda and his family moved into Clarence, he and his wife, Darlene, were renovating their new home.

At the time, his son was a toddler, and he accidently drank paint thinner that was contained in a fast-food soda cup.

“We didn’t know he did it,” Pazda said, but said he knew something was wrong when the child came into the room exhibiting signs of danger.

New to the neighborhood, “We had no idea where the fire department was,” he said; in a state of panic, the family called the emergency squad who took the child to Children’s Hospital.

When everything turned out to be OK, Pazda said he had an epiphany.

“At that point I realized, I’ve got to do something.

These strangers, they came and really helped us out of a jam,” he said. “I said, I think I’m going to become a volunteer and pay it forward to somebody else, and it all kind of snowballed from there.”

The Clarence Chamber of Commerce has awarded Pazda with this year’s “Citizen of the Year” award for his efforts in giving his all to the community.

He began serving at the Clarence Center Volunteer Fire Company, where he was president for five years and held a variety of other elected offices.

“A big accomplishment while president was we rebuilt the hall,” he said.

“Completely tore three quarters of it down,” adding that he spent six hours a day working on it for nine months.

While serving as president of the Clarence Lions Club, he facilitated the donation of icemakers to both the Clarence Town Park Clubhouse and the legion hall, in addition to a handicapped lift for the Clarence Town Park swimming pool.

“I’ve been a Clarence Lion for 8-10 years,” Pazda said.

He said that when people join the organization he tells them, “Yo u can join the Li-

hand to other community events. For many years, he has been a facilitator for the Day in the Park Independence Day celebration and has served four years as the co-chair where he has overseen the various committees, as well as helping to establish the Bark in the Park event.

He currently serves as treasurer of the Benevolent Association, which sponsors the Labor Day Fair weekend where he has also served as the Beer Tent chairman for the past 18 years.

For seven years Pazda has served on the Winterfest committee. Additionally, he was also the founder and organizer of the Chili & Chowder Cook-Off, with the Clarence Lions as the host organization.

Since 2004, he has been on the Clarence Town Planning Board, as well as regional director for the New York Planning Federation, since 2007. He currently chairs the Site Selection Committee for the annual statewide planning and zoning conference.

Pazda and his family are active members of Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church for 20 years, where he serves on the church’s governing body.

Originally from the Chautauqua County Village of Forestville, Pazda continues his service there, as well, holding title as the official village Santa Claus for the past 38 years.

Recipient members will be present at the 43rd annual Dinner held by the SUBMITTED Awards Chamber of Commerce. The theme this year is “Wizard of Oz Comes To Clarence,” and Timothy Pazda (pictured) is the award it will take place on Thursrecipient for the Clarence Chamber of day, Feb. 26 at Samuel’s Commerce “Citizen of the Year” award.

At the joint meeting of the Clarence Planning Board and the Town Board, held July 13, both boards reiterated their commitment to increasing the number and accessibility of the paved trails within the town. This will be a focal point of Master Plan 2025, which will guide the growth of the Town of Clarence over the next 12+ years.

Although he has been with the town of Clarence for 29 years and Linde for 26 years, the size and scope of the Clarence Parks Department responsibilities continue to grow. Their department includes 19 full-timers, two super secretaries and 23 part-time summer help employees, usually college students.

They are also responsible for taking care of the clubhouse, the band shell, the swimming pools, street lights, the park pavilions that are used for picnics, all baseball, football, soccer and lacrosse fields, almost 600 work orders that are generated by Town of Clarence employees. Other than the Highway Department, they do all of the electrical, plumbing, painting and carpentry work in the town.

Fortunately, they have an excellent team of dedicated employees to help them. Paul Allen is one example. He takes care of the swimming pools and the clubhouse in addition to his other duties with the Parks Department.

Allen has been with the parks department a staggering 44 years, and because of his experience and expertise in all things parks related, Burkard and Linde are hoping he will

stay another 25.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt said, “There is nothing so American as our parks. The scenery and the wildlife are native. The fundamental idea behind the parks is native. It is, in brief, that the country belongs to the people, that it is in process of making for the enrichment of the lives of all of us. The parks stand as the outward symbol of the great human principle.”

I would say that many people would be surprised to hear that the Clarence Parks Department is as busy in the winter as they are in the summer.

This winter — as of Jan. 20 — they have painted the main hallway, foyer and board rooms of the library.

They have remodeled the Senior Center, adding space to their existing storage room in the rear.

The department has also cleaned and painted all of the grills at the different town parks, refurbished the exterior library benches and rebuilt and repainted players benches at the various parks around town.

In addition, they are responsible for plowing many of the town of Clarence parking lots and for cleaning and salting the sidewalks. If you thought that Parks consisted only of a bunch of guys who drive around on lawnmowers during the summer, think again.

Our hard-working parks department employees, who are on call 24/7, are truly dedicated to keeping the town of Clarence buildings and parks in tiptop condition, 12 months of the year.

Should you have any questions, comments or suggestions for future articles, please feel free to call my office at 741-8930, email dhartzell@clarence. ny.us or stop by the Supervisors office in Clarence Town Hall. My door is always open!

Sweet Charlottes: a place built by a hopeful story

By Alicia Greco THE SUN EDITOR

Behind every business is a story. That of Sweet Charlottes is inspiring, touching and a bit heartrending.

Molly O’Malley Pitman was a full-time realtor when she found out her son, Donovan, was diagnosed with autism. He was completely non-verbal from age 2 until he was six years old.

According to the Mayo Clinic, “Autism spectrum disorder is a serious neurodevelopmental disorder that impairs a child’s ability to communicate and interact with others.”

“One day, that was it.

He just stopped talking – stopped looking at us,” she said. At that point, she became a full-time mother, dedicating all of her time to her son and his needs.

That complete drive for the cause evolved and she then became a full-time advocate for autism awareness.

When Donovan spoke for the first time again, his mother said that it was “unbelievable.”

“I realized I have been given the gift of words and a mouth to use them, and I felt empowered through the process, but very responsible to support those who may not even know that they have the right to voice their opinion and to advocate for their children’s education,” Pitman said.

On Oct. 27, 2012, Pitman opened Sweet Char-

lottes (named after her daughter) in Clarence — a play-place for parents and guardians to bring their children.

“It’s back to basic play. I want children to really be inspired to use their imagination and their creativity.

There’s so much more to play than just ‘play,’” she said.

Sweet Charlottes is a space open for children of all walks of life. Throughout the location, there are different rooms with various activities that help inspire creation and learning.

Different services are available, including dropoff play and open play.

Monthly memberships may be purchased and a meeting room is available to be used. Full details and prices can be found on the establishment’s website.

The meeting room may be used for birthday parties, craft workshops and more children-central events. Often the room has been used for support group meetings; with the play rooms just beyond the door, parents can feel comfortable that their child is just in the other room exploring all that Sweet Charlottes has to offer.

“I say that kids party and play but parents socialize and support,” Pitman said.

Each playroom within Sweet Charlottes has different activities with varying focus. Separating the main area from the room she calls the “Craft Café” are two curtains, her “prized possessions,” covered with splattered bright colored paint; an opening gift from

Inspired by her son’s diagnosis with autism, Molly O’Malley Pitman opened Sweet Charlottes in Clarence.

“I can be proactive. I can be a voice. I can believe in miracles,” she said. her son and his peers at the Autism Services Inc. The other rooms have nooks and crannies filled with fun things, such as a dress-up bin filled with clothes, air hockey and a playhouse.

A place for any child to play, Sweet Charlottes has activities that establish sensory and creative development. their senses.

A Velcro® dot wall can either be used for rearranging, creating a game or playing Twister® on the wall.

“Use your creativity,” she said, adding that the possibilities for children are endless.

“Grown-ups come in and they have a good time as well,” she added. “Moms will come and spend the day, order in lunch from a local restaurant.”

The Tree House Room, which she says is her favorite room, is a “nice room for little ones that may be getting overwhelmed. A place to be quiet and learn about the world or do a puzzle.”

Most activities at Sweet Charlottes have a therapeutic purpose, she added.

Since the opening, she said that it has been beneficial for her own children, as well; “I think it’s a great place for them to model social skills.”

More often than not, there are special needs play-groups and groups for children like her daughter.

For those in similar situations as her own, or relate to only one or the other, she wanted a place that had that unity.

“This would’ve been my ideal play-place for my children when they were younger,” she said.

“That’s what I thought I really needed to create

here.” With the experience she has had, Pitman said she will also assist special needs children by maybe having them come in early to adapt to the surroundings before all other children arrive that day.

“My goal really is to build a community; I want it to be a positive place,” she said.

Her past has built innerstrength that has become the foundation of Sweet Charlottes. After losing several family members to illness, she said, “I was either going to wallow in it and bury my head in the sand or I was going to fight the fight, and I’ve always had the energy and the determination.”

Misty-eyed while telling her story, she connects on a soulful level with parents and guardians who walk through the doors of Sweet Charlottes.

“Everybody who walks in here knows my story.

This is my home. It’s very personal; it’s my heart on my sleeve. I hear their stories, as well,” she said.

“I have two amazing and beautiful children and a husband [Matthew] who’s on board as a team player.

He’s an amazing father, especially to a special needs son, and for that I feel fortunate.”

Passionate positivity keeps her going through the human condition.

“All of us have our sto-

ry. All of us are going to have seasonal depression and our moments that suck worse than others, and then there’s that sunshine in the day that makes it OK. I try to find one thing everyday that made that day good, whether it be meeting a new person and being able to tell me story, keeping it real, keeping my momentum there,” Pitman said. “There’s always going to be a to-do list and we’re never going to make enough money and we’re never going to be beautiful enough, and it all compiles. It’s just life.”

Sweet Charlottes is located at 10255 Main St. in Clarence. Learn more at sweetcharlottes.org or by calling 320-5848.

Will North coach Bill Shaw called Clare Ahern (15) ‘just outstanding’ in the fourth quarter of the Spartans’ win over Clarence on Feb. 3.

Clarence hangs tough

Scrappy Red Devils give Will North a game, ultimately fall

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Although Williamsville North came into Tuesday’s (Feb. 3) game undefeated in league play, coach Bill Shaw

knew that Clarence would be a tough opponent. And with his team’s most recent practice being Saturday, he wasn’t as confident as he would have liked to be.

The Spartans did end up outlasting the Red Devils in a 57-43 victory, but Clarence didn’t make it easy.

“We didn’t practice Sunday, and we didn’t practice Monday, and now we’ve got a game against a good team,”

Shaw said after Tuesday’s win. “Clarence is a very good team. They’re scrappy, they battle with you, so I was concerned with it.”

North led by 10 points after one quarter and nine at halftime, but Clarence chipped away at that lead in the third quarter. The Red Devils scored 18 points in the third while North scored just 12, and North led by just three points as the third quarter

came to an end.

It was in the fourth quarter that North really stepped up both offensively and defensively.

“It took us until the fourth quarter to really get our legs and get moving,” Shaw said.

“I thought we played a great fourth quarter. The first three quarters were suspect, but the fourth quarter we played very well.”

As for Clarence, coach Erin

Booker liked the way her team handled itself against the best team in the division.

The Red Devils played good defense, limited turnovers, and were able to improve on some aspects of the game that they’ve been working on.

“I thought we played really well defensively,” Booker said. “I was proud of my team. They played smart basketball tonight. They really didn’t turn the ball over

a lot. We did a great job on the boards, which is something we’ve been working on. We’re missing one of our starters tonight, too, Anna Davies, so it hurt us underneath a little bit. But shooting wise, I just told them in the locker room, I was proud of them.”

Hall thrives as Billies’ first option off bench Clarence bowlers meeting

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

JEFFREY T. BARNES

Myles Hall is Williamsville South’s sixth man.

Myles Hall is the sixth man. And while that wasn’t his expectation or his hope coming into the season, the Williamsville South junior captain thrives in that role.

“My expectation for this season was to start, and I do not start,” Hall said. “I’m the sixth man, which is ok.

I really enjoy it. I think I have a significant role on the team, and I do.”x Hall’s confidence and willingness to step up when he’s needed have aided his success this season. He has 116 points, which is fifth on

the team. And he’s happy with the way he’s played so far.

“I feel great about the way I’m playing,” Hall said. “I feel like I’m playing way better than I did last year, and I’m stepping up every time coach [Gabe Michael] needs me.”

Michael said that Hall is good enough to be a starter with the way he’s playing.

But Hall has been extremely valuable in the role he’s had this season.

Hall’s knowledge that his role is a unique one overshadows any disappointment he may feel over not starting. He knows that it isn’t often that a player can come off the bench and have the kind of success he’s had.

coach’s expectations

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Coming into the season, Clarence Bowling coach Ken Duke was expecting his team to be successful this year.

Although Clarence lost its first match to Sweet Home, the team has done very well since, and it is meeting Duke’s expectations.

“The team with its talent is where I hoped they would be,” he said. “It was a tough loss to start the season, but they have come back strong and have been on a solid win streak.”

After that first loss, the team recovered well and won 10 straight matches, including its rematch with Sweet Home. At press time, Clarence was 10-1 and tied for the league title.

Winning its rematch against Sweet Home was a part of that run.

Senior captain Tanner Geiger leads the team with a 204 average and has provided the leadership that Duke hoped for and expected from his captain.

“He’s been a solid leader,” Duke said.

And junior co-captain Nick Sehl has been right behind Geiger. He’s also provided leadership along with a 198 average.

Stallions go undefeated during Ohio road trip

CONTRIBUTED PHOTO

The Clarence Stallions had a strong showing in Gates Mills, Ohio.

Luke Marchant (of Clarence) notched a hat trick to lead the mite major Clarence Stallions to a 5-4 win over the Cleveland Stars on Jan. 31 in Gates Mills, Ohio.

Linemate Liam Graham (of Clarence) had two assists and Max Henning (of Clarence) had one. Miles Santa Maria (of Amherst) had a goal and an assist. Alex Fulfaro (of Amherst) made a few moves to get loose in the slot and ripped the game-winning goal over the goaltender’s left shoulder. Josh Gawron (of Clarence) had 21 saves on 25 shots.

Later that day, the two teams faced off again. Drew Idzik (of N. Tonawanda) opened the scoring early in the first.

Marchant officially scored

one more and had another that appeared to spectators to cross the goal line, but was not tallied.

The Stallions maintained composure. Fulfaro scored from Finn Graham (of Clarence), Nic Zivis (of Clarence) scored from Xavier Thomann (of Clarence), and the Stallions won, 4-1. Gawron allowed only one goal on 28 shots.

On Feb. 1, the Stallions faced the Parma Panther Reds, winning 15-1. Scoring included: Zivis, four goals, one assist; Cameron Stadelmaier (of Wheatfield), one goal, four assists; Santa Maria, two goals, two assists; Idzik and Fulfaro each, two goals, one assist; Marchant, two goals; Liam Graham, one goal, one assist; Evan Becigneul (of N.

Tonawanda), one goal, one assist; Finn Graham (of Clarence) and Tucker Schoen (of Grand Island) each, two assists; Owen McIntyre (of Lockport) and Thomann each, one assist.

Later on Feb. 1, the Stallions found themselves trailing Team Cleveland, 3-1, at the beginning of the third. Marchant, who had setup an earlier goal by Stadelmaier, setup a rebound tap in by Santa Maria.

Then, Marchant added a goal of his own to tie the game with less than three minutes remaining.

Fulfaro then blasted in another game-winner, this time with 21 seconds left on a pass from Santa Maria to put the Stallions up, 4-3, and keep the Stallions undefeated on their Ohio road trip.

Pacatte finished Hall expects Billies to have strong with 11 points in showing in sectionals losing effort “Sixth man” from page 7

“Clarence” from page 7 Ericka Taplin led North’s offense with 24 points, but Shaw also liked what he saw from Clare Ahern, especially in the fourth quarter in which she scored four points.

“Ericka Taplin played very well,” Shaw said. “She just comes to play every night.

She’s tough, she bangs, she rebounds, she posts up strong. We have to do a better job of getting her the ball.

“Clare Ahern was outstanding in the fourth quarter, just outstanding. She did things really well to kind of key us in the fourth quarter.

I thought everybody played well in the fourth quarter.”

For Clarence, Gabbi Pacatte led the way. In addition to her 11 points, she had five steals and five assists.

“She really broke through and hit some big threes,” Booker said. “To be down by three points in the fourth

quarter against [North] is a great turnout, and she had a lot to do with that. She played well defensively. She just had a great all-around game.

She was a good leader on the floor tonight.”

Shaw knows that his team is capable of playing the way it played in the fourth quarter of Tuesday’s game all the time, as evidenced by North’s 9-0 record in league play. But he did give credit where it was due. Although Clarence fell to 4-3 with Tuesday’s loss, Shaw knows it can be a tough team to beat.

“That’s the basketball we’re capable of playing,” he said of Tuesday’s fourth quarter. “Again, it was one of those situations where I was kind of concerned with the layoff, and I didn’t think it was going to bite us, but Clarence, they’re wellcoached.”

JEFFREY T. BARNES

Hall is fifth on the Billies in scoring with 116 points this season.

“[My role] means a lot to me, it really does,” Hall said. “Usually in high school basketball, nobody’s coming off the bench and scoring 116 points or putting up big numbers, really. And I feel like I’m really the only person in this area, in our division, that comes off the bench and has a good game every time and has a major impact on the team.

Not many people off the bench get the chance to do that.”

Not only does he provide offensive numbers, but Hall said he’s able to see a need and fill it, whatever the situation may be.

“As a player and a captain, I feel like I bring everything that the team needs,” he said. “When we need energy, I give energy. When we need a defensive play, I give the defensive play.”

In his role, Hall is also

able to see improvements that can be made.

Although Williamsville South has just one loss so far this season, Hall believes the team can be even better.

“I just feel like we need to move the ball a little better,” he said. “We haven’t really had trouble moving the ball. It’s just that when it sticks, we don’t look like the team that we should.”

Hall expects that South will make it to the sectional finals at Buffalo State College and even go beyond that with the way the team is playing this season. And if a few improvements can be made, he’ll be even more confident.

“We just need to play defense and move the ball,” Hall said. “If we can do those things, I think we’re going to be a good team.

The sky’s really the limit for us, to be honest.”

Red Devil bowlers primed for postseason action “Bowling” from page 7 “Sehl is followingTanner in the leadership role, averaging 198,” Duke said.

Sophomore Tyler White has improved his average to 200 after average 198 five games into the season.

“Tyler White has picked up his game,” Duke said.

Freshman Brendan Cimerman has also done well this season.

He’s averaging 195, which is lower than his 200 average earlier in the season but still a decent

amount of production.

Duke expected that kind of production from those four bowlers.

The production from a few other bowlers has surpassed Duke’s expectations. He’s been pleasantly surprised by eighth grader BenChamberland.Chamberland was averaging 174 five games into the season and has raised that average to 195. Sophomores Joe Loewer and Sam Petty have also shown considerable improvement since last year and over the

course of this season.

“Eighth grader Ben Chamberland was a surprise this year,” Duke said. “He is averaging 195 so far this year. And sophomores Joe Loewer and Sam Petty have really turned their game around from last year.”

Clarence had a match against Amherst on Thursday (Feb. 5), and that was the final match of the season. After that, Clarence would have a clearer of who would win the league title.

“With our last match today, so far we are 10-1 after losing our first match to Sweet Home,” Duke said Thursday morning.

“We won the rematch, so at this point we are tied for the league title. We will see after bowling Amherst today.”

Up next for Clarence is ECIC roll offs on Tuesday (Feb.10). It is an individual competition for the Clarence bowlers in which any of them could win an award in his division. With the way

Clarence’stopbowlershavebeen performing this season, Duke is confident that each of them has a chance at winning.

The NYSPHAA Section VI championshipisnextFriday(Feb. 13). It is a five-man competition, and Duke is looking forward to that with confidence as well. He knowshehasagoodteamthatcan do what’s needed to win.

“I feel we have a good chance of placing well,” Duke said.

For now, of course, Geiger, Duke, and the rest of the team have their sights set on the league title and then ECIC’s and sectionals.

Martinsen’s bloodlines beneficial in evolution as basketball star

By Melissa Brawdy SPORTS REPORTER

Basketball has always been a constant in the Martinsens’ lives.

Gregg Martinsen played for some very successful Canisius College basketball teams in the early 1980s. He played with the likes of Mike Smreck, who went on to play for the Los Angeles Lakers, and Lawrence “Sugar Ray” Hall, who was drafted

by the Utah Jazz following graduation.

“We had really awesome talent back then,” Gregg Martinsen said. “Of course, Northeastern used to beat us all the time, but we won two-thirds of our games.”

After coaching both of his sons’teams at Nativity of Mary in Clarence, Martinsen coached his daughter Erica’s teams from kindergarten up through the AAU team that Erica now plays for during the spring and summer.

But now, Gregg watches Erica star for the Williamsville East varsity team.And while he isn’t her official coach at East, Gregg still helps Erica work on her skills and coaches her

in any way he can.

“It’s a little weird that now someone else is coaching her at the high school level,” Gregg said. “We still go to the Y every night, or LA Fitness, and shoot.

It’s been a lot of fun.”

But Gregg doesn’t give himself credit for what he believes has been Erica’s biggest improvement recently. Her shot has improved thanks to Tim Sullivan, a shooting coach who has worked with NBA stars such as Kobe Bryant and Dwyane Wade and who was another of Gregg’s teammates at Canisius.

“She’s really improved her offensive part of the game,” Gregg said. “Tim Sullivan had helped her shot tremendously.

Erica and Tim get together twice a week. That’s helped the most. I wish I could take credit for it, but Tim is just phenomenal. She’s just had so much confidence in her shot, and it’s a real pretty shot.”

Erica appreciates the fact that her father is always there to turn to when she needs to work on her game.

“Having him coaching me makes it easier because he’s constantly always there,” Erica said. “Even when I don’t have a real practice, I can go to him and every day work with him at home.”

And that constant work has led to the success Erica has had this season. She leads her team with 311 points, 29 assists,

and 52 steals. She’s second in rebounds with 54.

“Since I do work every day and I’m constantly trying to improve my skills, it’s paid off a lot and really helped me,” Erica said.

Although Erica enjoys individual success, her focus is on her team. After winning sectionals last season, she and her teammates weren’t sure what to expect this year after losing some key players.

“Coming into the season, I thought that it was going to be a little tougher this year because we did lose eight seniors,” Erica said.

So far this season, East is 8-5, and Erica said the toughness of this season makes each win

more enjoyable.

“This season’s been definitely tougher than last year, but it’s more fun when we win because we know that even though it’s harder, it’s still possible, and we want to get to the same place we were last year — sectionals. So that’s our goal.”

To make that happen, Erica, with her father’s help, will continue to work hard to improve every day. She hopes her teammates will do the same so that together they can win as many games as possible.

“Every game matters,” Erica said. “Every league game, we have to win from here until sectionals. Just get all the wins we can, and hopefully make it there.”

Rod, Gun & Game: It’s ice fishing season — time for tactics and tips

By Forrest Fisher OUTDOOR COLUMNIST

The weather helps all of us decide our options for outdoor fun, especially this winter! Now that the cold has finally settled in for good, if you like fishing, it means heading for hard water and finding fish in their winter lairs — not always an easy job.

If finding the fish is the hard part, then the visit I enjoyed with Lake Erie charter captain Bobby Rustowicz and Maki-Plastic/Clam/Ice-Team Pro Scott Brauer has already started to make life on the ice a bit easier.

They both believe that the angler needs to stay in touch with the fish. It doesn’t matter if it is winter or summer. For both of them, that means using sonar, a high-tech fish finder of sorts.

For Brauer, ice fishing success means using a Vexilar ice-fishing sonar that can identify hard bottom, soft bottom, weeds, fish movement, and also allows for interference rejection, to tune out the sonar of nearby anglers. These units are compact, portable and effective, with prices ranging from $299 to the top of the line, FLX-28, for $560 or so.

Brauer says, “One of the most important factors for catching fish in the winter is identifying what the fish are looking for on the day you go fishing. The size of the bait below is your key as to what to fish with. If the bait in the area is smaller, then smaller lures will be more effective, bigger forage means larger baits and lures. There are weight forward jig heads for swimming a plastic tail vertically or horizontally, flat front side jig heads that stand

straight up that can be used to tease dormant fish into feeding, and many other options.”

An expert at winning winter ice fishing contests, Brauer is not shy about telling all when it comes to helping others catch fish, find fun on the ice and adding folks to the long list of people who love to ice fish.

Brauer says, “Most folks don’t really know where to start when they first think about going out to ice fish. They can be lost, never to return, if someone doesn’t help them learn the right things to do. I try to help them so they will learn so much they will get others involved too.”

Brauer is autonomous. He never asks for bylines or credit; he is a super humble human.

As Brauer continued to discuss his winning ice fishing finesse with Rustowicz and I, he said, “How folks know best present their offerings to the fish? How do you rig things to catch fish? It can depend on the fish mood, too; are the fish aggressive feeders today? Are the fish up-feeding today looking for minnows or rising larvae, or are they down-feeding and looking for bottom dwellers, blood worms, blue worms, stonefly nymphs and other bottom-oriented crustacean type forage?”

To start out, to make your day on the ice more productive, be prepared to fish with several manners of presentation.

One starting point is a simple one: the drop shot rig, using 2-pound test Trilene micro-ice line (red color is his preferred color, but likes clear on busy ice) with a bb-shot for weight and a small size 12 scud hook with a simple plastic mini-scud or mini-maki tied tail about 6 inches above the weight. You

SCOTT BRAUER

Ice fishing jigs, baits and hooks are numerous, colorful and plentiful – and tiny, adding to remove the simplicity and fun of ice fishing until the right combination of size and color and action is discovered for productive and successful fish catching. can also tie a loop knot above that single drop shot hook and add another micro-jig or another hook and bait too.

Brauer is an ice-fishing master educator that uses ice jigs with live grubs and maggots, or rigged with micro-tiny maki plastic jig tails in combination with bare hooks, micro-sized titanium or lead jig heads. He will fish with bite indicators that include tip-ups and tipdowns, light action spring bobber rods, and a host of other mechanical display rigs.

Brauer admits that there is really no possible way to tell someone what to use before the actual day of fishing in the spot the angler is fishing, but he adds, “Combinations can be the most deadly of winter icefishing tricks.” Brauer likes to use Hali-Sekkula spoon jigs for perch, digger head jigs that

dig into the bottom for stubborn crappie, Grumpi jigs, Doti jigs, Darti jigs and vertical jigs rigged for horizontal fishing by bending the hook to create an upward pointing elevation to allow easier hook-up with the fish. To learn more about the plastic critter jigs and head that Brauer uses, check out http:// www.makiplastic.com/bait/.

It’s not always the great big things that you do when you ice fish – granted you need to be able to detect a strike and the sonar helps a lot, but to be more effective, it is often the really small changes you make to present something different, something subtle, or less colorful, or that has more action, or different action, such as jig tails hooked up backwards at times - that can make the biggest difference in catching winter fish on any single day.

To meet Brauer and learn about ice-fishing first-hand, meet with him this Saturday, Feb. 7, at the seventh free “Kids Ice-Fishing Clinic” sponsored by the Honeoye Fish and Game Club on Honeoye Lake at the state boat launch (southeast end of lake). The event begins at 9 a.m. There will be free use of equipment, ice huts, free bait and refreshments (hot chocolate) for the first 150 kids aged 15 years and under. All kids must be accompanied by a parent. For more information regarding details give Al Lis a call at 585-451-8451.

Last word, get your coat on, put your gloves on, rod or not, get in your car and get out there. We can’t walk on water at too many times of the year! Enjoy!

New York Coyote Contest With deer populations in some parts of New York falling rapidly due to suspected coyote over-predation of fawns during spring season, the Sullivan County Federation of Sportsmen extends an open invitation to sportsmen to attend and participate in its eighth annual Statewide 3-Day Coyote Contest set for this weekend, Feb. 6–8. Prizes are substantial, with $2,000 going to the hunter with the heaviest coyote, though a $100 prize is offered for every coyote entered. Last year, 560 hunters were registered and 53 coyotes were taken. The heaviest and winning coyote in 2014 weighed 49.30 pounds, taken by Charles Wacha of Walton, New York, hunting in Delaware County. There is a free banquet dinner to follow, entry fee is $35. For more

information and coyote applications, call 845-482-4985.

Ice Fishing Report Silver Lake, Honeoye Lake, Conesus Lake and Chautauqua Lake all have 9-12 inches of hard ice. Silver Lake is slow for perch and sunfish at the south end access point at Silver Lake State Park.

Honeoye Lake has good sunfish action in 6-15 feet of depth with jigs and grubs, and some chain pickerel on tip-ups and shiners for bait, all near the state boat launch at the southeast corner of the lake.

At Conesus Lake, bluegills and occasional crappie are coming from the north end of the lake in 6-10 feet of water off Vitale Park. Northern pike and tiger musky are reported in 8-12 feet off McPherson point.

At Chautauqua Lake, anglers are finding good action from smaller bluegill and perch in 8-15 feet of water off Mayville using jigs and grubs, or salted minnows. Most perch caught from all the lakes mentioned here have been hard to catch right now, with bigger fish in 20 feet or deeper water.

Clingersmith, NCCC baseball introduce 20 recruits

By Nick Sabato SPORTS REPORTER

Niagara County Community College head coach Matt Clingersmith welcomed his newest recruiting class in what he hopes will help continue the strong tradition that he has built in his nine years at the helm.

Twenty student-athletes signed national letters of intent, many of whom are local products, last weekend.

Clingersmith believes the group can be the next great group of Thunderwolves.

Many schools and players choose to sign individual letters of intent, but Clingersmith chose to invite each of his recruits in at the same time in a celebration of the next step on their baseball paths.

“I think it’s good,” said Clingersmith. “I want to make

it as memorable as possible for them. I remember signing my national letter of intent to Canisius, and it should be a special day for these kids because they are putting in the work and confidence in us to develop them.”

One of the new signees has become a bit of a legacy in the NCCC baseball family, especially since his brothers played for the Thunderwolves and he played youth baseball for the Niagara Jr. Thunderwolves under current NCCC assistant Jeff Ziemecki.

Soon-to-be Lockport graduate Kyle Waple comes from a baseball family, as his father Mark is the skipper for Lewiston-Porter high school.

Waple has a lot of fire and leadership qualities that the coaching staff at NCCC like and Clingersmith believes he can be the leader of an infield on a top notch squad.

The decision for the Lions’ second baseman was one that came down to finances and his comfort level with Clingersmith and Ziemecki.

“It was financially better to come here before a four-year school,” said Waple. “Once I got my idea of coming here, I started talking to Jeff Ziemecki, and I played for him over the summer. I spoke to Clingersmith a lot more and it was just positive.”

Another local signee is another middle infielder in Angelo Vilardo of NiagaraWheatfield, who has helped shore up the Falcons’ infield since his sophomore season.

Clingersmith hopes that Vilardo’s versatility and ability to play various positions across the board will be an asset to the Thunderwolves in 2015-2016.

“Angelo is a good kid,” said Clingersmith. “He’s very

athletic. He’s a glue guy. He can play a lot of positions and that’s what you look for in guys like that. He’s Johnny Utility. He can play the infield, he can play the outfield, he can hit, he can run, he’s a good bunter – he’s just a hardworking kid.”

NCCC went 31-15 last season before falling in the Region III Final Four, which has become a regular occurrence under Clingersmith.

Since he took over in 2007, the Thunderwolves have won the Region III championship and gone on to appear in the NJCAA Division III World Series on three occasions (2009, 2012 and 2013).

That success has enabled them to expand the recruiting umbrella into Southern Ontario and into Rochester, which had been unheard of prior because of schools like Genesee Community College

and Erie Community College.

“I think it’s because we are one of the better programs in the east,” said Clingersmith.

“It has helped us grow and the reputation has gotten out.

When I first started, it was unheard of for Rochester kids to come here because of Monroe and Genesee being so close.”

For a kid like Waple, signing so much earlier and making his college decision while many of his friends are still agonizing over where they are going to attend next year takes a large burden off of his shoulders.

Now he can focus on the remainder of his senior year and play his final scholastic baseball season with a clear head before he pursues a baseball career at the collegiate level while aspiring to be in the medical field.

“It’s a big relief,” said Waple. “I’ve been getting all

of these college emails saying to go here or go there. I knew NCCC was the right fit for me to grow and become a better person.”

Along with Waple and Vilardo NCCC also signed 18 other recruits including Loukas Bechakas (Williamsville North), James Brnik (West Seneca East), Nate Chase (Webster Schroeder), Zarley Cina (Huron Heights), Kyle Crotty (Springville), Hayden Owell (Pavilion), Dylan Flasch (South Central), Ryan Green (Penfield), Brian Hodges (Le Roy), Jordan Hrynczak (Clarence), Joel Krywcun (Maryvale), Jaret Loran (South Central), Dave Lyskawa (Williamsville North), Joe Milkowski (St. Francis), Chad Nelson (Jamestown), Brandon Nicholson (Orchard Park), Mitchell Racz (Grand Island) and Cameron Voss (Fredonia).

National telecast brings out the best for UB Bulls

By Mike Haim COLUMNIST

Part of me wants to cringe every time I hear about a collegiate sporting event being played “under the bright lights” of a national television broadcast.

Realistically, the lights aren’t any brighter in an arena or stadium when ESPN is in town (except for that one time about seven or eight years ago when UB had to bring in auxiliary lights for a national football telecast – but I digress).

Don’t say anything about the “bright lights myth” to the 5,797 who turned out

last Friday night for a 10 p.m. game between UB and division-leading Kent State, a contest which was carried nationally on ESPN-U. The students turned out in force, complete with largehead representations of a disparate cast of characters including Bills coach Rex Ryan, “Home Alone” star Macaulay Culkin, and Abraham Lincoln. Reports stated that students were still flowing in midway through the first half, a vast improvement over last fall’s UB-Baylor football game (incidentally also a national broadcast), when students raced for the exits by halftime.

And then there was the “mop guy” who got caught

wiping the floor as a turnover created a fast break towards his end; his mad scramble turned him into a locally trending topic on social media repositories Twitter and Vine.

The sideshow was merely window dressing, though: the Bulls drew upon the energy at Alumni Arena and dominated in an 80-55 trouncing. The whole night had a magical feeling to it, as if coach Bobby Hurley’s squad treated the contest as a coming-out party.

“It was a great game to be part of,” Hurley said in his post-game comments. “The energy of the crowd and the atmosphere and the way we played defensively was great.”

In addition, in a season

which has seen various players take up the leadership torch, another star emerged Friday night in senior forward Xavier Ford. The 6-7 forward, the team’s only four-year member and a front-runner for Sixth Man honors, netted a career-high 25 points in his second start of the season.

Toss in his 16-point performance in his first start against Western Michigan three days prior, and it’s easy to see why Ford was named MAC East Division player of the week.

But it’s really been a steady, balanced show in Amherst all season: the Bulls are still undefeated (8-0) at home this season and have played a pair of highly competitive road

games against highly-ranked opponents, even holding halftime leads against Kentucky and Wisconsin. On the way, the Bulls have compiled a 14-6 overall record and are 5-3 in the Mid-American Conference; surely they’ve turning many heads after the MAC coaches’ pre-season poll placed them to finish fourth in their six-team division.

At this point, a division title isn’t out of the question: the Bulls went into this past Wednesday’s road tilt against Ball State tied for 3rd in the MAC East Division, just one game behind Kent State and Akron. UB still has a road rematch with Kent State remaining (on Feb. 28) and

two games against Akron (on the road this Saturday and at home on Feb. 24).

In addition, UB has yet to play Bowling Green, with whom they’re tied; the teams will play on the rural Ohio campus on Feb. 21 and again to close out regular season play on Mar. 6.

In less than two seasons, Hurley has already logged an impressive 33-16 record and owns the best winning percentage ever by a UB hoops coach. He appears to be getting the Bulls on track for some remarkable success, along with any “bright lights” that may shine on them along the way. www.twitter.com/mikehaim
