Scots Day to be held at Fort Ticonderoga Black Watch to be honored June 15 By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com TICONDEROGA „ ScotlandÍ s role at Fort Ticonderoga and Scottish heritage will be on display during the sixth annual Scots Day. The event will be held at Fort Ti Saturday, June 15, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. “The commemoration of Scottish heritage and their significant contributions to 18th-century North American history runs throughout the day,î said Beth Hill, Fort Ti president and CEO. ñ Tour the Scottish clan tents and vendors to discover more about your own connection to Scottish culture, and explore the stories of centuries of Scottish soldiers in the British Army through a military timeline offered throughout the day. Experience all of this within the beautiful stone walls and vistas of Fort Ticonderoga.î Highlighting the Scots Day will be a memorial service honoring the 42nd Highland Regiment, also known as the Black Watch. The ceremony will take place at the Scottish Cairn on the Carillon Battlefield. The procession to the Cairn will begin at 11 a.m. at the Log House Welcome Center. ñ The memorial ceremony will take place at 11:30 a.m. and will remember the incredible bravery and discipline of the Black Watch against insurmountable odds at the 1758 Battle of Carillon,” Hill said. “A special Carillon Battlefield tour will be presented at 12 p.m., following the memorial ceremony.î The 42nd Highland Regiment played a crucial role at Ticonderoga during the Battle of Carillon on July 8, 1758. The regiment suffered more than 50 percent casualties during the failed British assault on the French lines at Ticonderoga during the French &

Indian War. Ticonderoga has continued to be an important part of the regimentÍ s history. During its involvement in the Iraq War, the Black Watch RegimentÍ s base near Basra was called ñ Ticonderoga.î There will be living history programs presented throughout the day by members of a Black Watch re-enactor unit from Montreal. Scots Day will also feature bagpipe music provided all day by the Plattsburgh Police Pipes and Drums and The KingÍ s Highlanders on the fortÍ s parade ground. There will also be many clans representing their family histories. Participating Scottish clans and organizations will include Clan Buchanan, Clan Campbell, Clan Forbes, Clan Hamilton, Clan Innes, Clan Johnston/Clan Johnstone, Clan Lockhart, Clan MacFarlane Worldwide, Clan Mackintosh, Clan MacPherson, Clan McIntyre, Clan Murray, Clan Rose Society of America, St. Andrews Society of the Adirondacks and St. Andrews Society of Albany. Also available that day will be the fortÍ s newest exhibit ñ It would make a heart of stone melt.

Times of Ti Editorial

It’s June, and it’s itchy

pstate New YorkÍ s left hand has been itching for generations „ jobs pouring out of the state, leaving the economy a bust. Gov. Andrew Cuomo hopes to reverse that trend with his Tax-Free NY program „ switching the itch from the left to right hand, thus revitalizing the upstate economy by creating new jobs. Will it work? ItÍ s worth a shot. But the governor should be honest about the implications to reduced tax revenues. He says there wonÍ t be any, but weÍ re not sure about that. So the governorÍ s got this itch. He wants to develop tax-free business zones in upstate communities „ mainly around SUNY campuses. After all, 93 percent of New Yorkers live within 15 miles of a SUNY Campus, 97 percent within 20 miles. ñ If you took the North Country out ... that number would change dramatically,î Cuomo said during his May 29 Tax-Free NY announcement in Albany. ThatÍ s great news for creating jobs in Plattsburgh (SUNY Plattsburgh and Clinton Community College), Saranac Lake and Ticonderoga (North Country Community College). For many of our readers, however, it does nothing. WeÍ re not most New Yorkers. WeÍ re the 3 percent. Large expanses of the Adirondack Park contain communities more than 20 miles from a SUNY campus. With blackflies vastly outnumbering residents here in the sticks, the governor should also develop an economic development program for the 3 percent. Something more than buying private land, adding it to the state Forest Preserve and promising economic development in the wake of these multi-million-dollar land deals. Tourists who visit the wild lands „ mostly pork Í nÍ beaners who stay in tents and bring their own food „ have little impact on the local economy. They may buy bug dope at HossÍ s Country Corner in Long Lake, but thatÍ s not job creation. Luckily, the governor has made inroads in the Adirondack Park. He genuinely likes it here. HeÍ s setting up the Adirondack Challenge event in Indian Lake in July, promoting the Adirondack Park through I Love New York. WeÍ re wholeheartedly behind this event and thank him for his support and attention. But thatÍ s still not job creation. When the governor made his Tax-Free NY announcement, he said, ñ You canÍ t do more than this,î meaning the state canÍ t do more than

freeing businesses from all state taxes for a limited amount of time „ 10 years for sales, property, and business/corporate taxes. ñ You canÍ t go lower than zero.î And employees would be exempt from paying income taxes for five years. The goal is to set up tax-free communities that promote entrepreneurship and job creation. But we donÍ t like the time limit for the tax exemption. What happens after 10 years? Do the businesses close shop or simply move to a state thatÍ s tax-friendly more than 10 years? And while the stateÍ s budget director says there is ñ no costî to the state, meaning there is no out-of-pocket expense, there is most definitely a cost when you donÍ t collect taxes. WeÍ ve already seen what happens when revenue falls short of expectations. After the countryÍ s economic collapse and federal bailout of Wall Street firms in 2008, many financial institutions were paying a lot less in state taxes. And that reduction in tax revenue led to a budget deficit reaching $15 billion for the state. WeÍ re not saying these tax-free zones will result in a $15 billion budget shortfall, but there will most likely be some reduction. When thereÍ s a reduction in sales tax, government agencies that reap the benefit of those taxes need to make up for the shortfall: the state, counties and towns in some instances. What happens when businesses donÍ t pay property taxes? It means higher taxes for the other property owners. ShouldnÍ t the state be generating economic development that adds businesses to the tax rolls instead of taking them off? ThatÍ s why thereÍ s a stigma for having taxexempt properties in town ... no revenue. In this tax-cap era, this could make balancing budgets even harder for some communities and school districts. Many are already cutting jobs. Details, such as eligibility requirements, still need to be worked out for Tax-Free NY. How will the state measure the 1-mile radius around SUNY campuses? As the crow flies? So what does the State Legislature do with this ñ game changer,î as Cuomo calls it? ñ It can only be good,î he said. WeÍ re not totally convinced yet, but we donÍ t have any better ideas. WeÍ re asking our state legislators to ask the governor tough questions and get some honest answers before casting their votes on this program. DonÍ t get caught up in the hype and the promise of new jobs. There is a cost here. And please talk to your constituents before scratching Andrew CuomoÍ s latest itch. „ Denton Editorial Board

Letters to the Editor

Take responsibility To the Times of Ti: I can sympathize with Dan AlexanderÍ s Viewpoint from last week’s Times of Ti as I was a chief executive officer and I also followed President TrumanÍ s example of taking the blame when something happened at my business. President Truman as many of us remember had a sign on his desk at the White House stating ñ The Buck Stops Here!î Unfortunately no President since President Truman has followed his example! Taking responsibility goes even further in our government and stretches to our legislators of all political persuasions as well as our Supreme Court! Washington bureaucrats for the most part do well in their jobs but when they make bad judgement calls as in the case of the IRS they make excuses like schoolchildren! A few years ago the IRS audited me for ñ business expensesî and I have been retired for 17 years! I contacted the IRS and explained that I was retired I didnÍ t have any business expenses I was told to submit copies of receipts for every exemption I claimed even though I was being audited for business expenses I never claimed! After much frustration and digging up copies of expenses as well as paying for special delivery I received a letter from the IRS months later saying, ñ We are pleased to let you know our audit is completed and your tax return is correct.î I have never received an explanation as to why I was audited for business expenses I never had! No one took blame for making me spend days and months waiting for the G-Men to knock on my door! As a taxpayer I want my president, legislators and civil servants to be accountable for their actions and of those under them! President Harry Truman made decisions many would have put to others but he made them and took responsibility for them. I am sending a copy of this letter to President Obama and my legislators to let them know ñ the buck stops with themî and the Washington bureaucrats!

Proud to be a Wildcat To the Times of Ti:

Roger Friedman Schroon Lake Class of 1968

39753

Inspirational may best describe the May 28 meeting of the Schroon Lake school board on the proposed sports merger plan. The school board and school superintendent provided to the public all the information that had been ascertained up until the time of the meeting and most of all they listened to the communityÍ s concerns. Community members who spoke did an excellent job of articulating their concerns why the district is not ready to enter into a merger. Even more important all those present in the auditorium showed a high degree of respect and civility in spite of peaked emotions. It has become clear to most that due to decreasing enrollment creative solutions must be found in order to maintain a sports program for our students and the public should be appreciative of the school board for being pro-active on this issue. However when questions exceed the answers and unknowns exceed the knowns, there is little doubt that the school board did the correct thing by not supporting the merger at this time. Hopefully a committee of community members, school personnel and students will be created with the goal of formulating a long term strategic program based on what is best for the students of Schroon Lake Central. All in all it certainly makes one proud to be a Wildcat!

Crown Point chamber, club team up for event

fred@denpubs.com CROWN POINT „ The New York/Vermont 5K Champlain Bridge Run looks like it may be here to stay. Originally planned as a one-time event to mark the opening of the Champlain Bridge in 2012, it was so popular a second edition was held May 18. That race attracted more than 70 athletes. ñ Hopefully it will be a yearly event,î said Nancy Ockrin of Crown Point, who teamed with Dave Burrows of Castleton, Vt., to direct the run. ñ The weather with sunshine and 60-degree temps combined with the surrounding beauty made for a spectacular back drop.î The race was co-sponsored by the Crown Point Chamber of Commerce and the LaChute Road Runners of Ticonderoga. The course was changed this year. A year ago the race started on the bridge. This spring the race began at the Samuel deChamplain Lighthouse in the New York State campsite and followed a pedestrian path along the Lake Champlain shore, under the bridge, to the historic site. The race finished near the historic site museum in front of the bridge. ñ We had our start at the lighthouse monument this year, then followed with a light

loop within the campsite, from there under the bridge along the lake shore, and then into the historic site running around a bit and then through the British ruins and ultimately ending near the French fort,î Burrows said. ñ Although the bridge was not specifically crossed this year, views of it were part of the beginning, through a lot of the course, and itÍ s end.î Jay Berube and his brother Jesse dominated the race. Jay, a runner at SUNY-Oneonta, won in 17 minutes, 23 seconds. Jesse, a former runner at SUNY-Geneseo, was second in 17:24. Both are Ticonderoga High School graduates. Irene Somerville was the first woman in 20:40. Hidden Hollow Maple Farm in Warrensburg provided first, second and third place prizes. Overall male and female winners each took home a hand-crafted wooden cutting boards from Glens Falls-based Steinberger Woodworks. Boston-based EnergyBits, Wagon Wheel Restaurant in Ticonderoga, Ticonderoga McDonaldÍ s, Walmart, DB Enterprises Plumbing and Heating, Lakeside Regional Church, Queensbury Family Chiropractic and Stoney Lonesome Bed and Breakfast also supported the event.

Schroon trash station investigated Crime or mismanagement? By Fred Herbst

fred@denpubs.com SCHROON LAKE „ State auditors believe a crime may have been committed. Schroon Supervisor Mike Marnell disagrees. District Attorney Kristy Sprague will have the final say. At issue are Schroon trash transfer station revenues. A state audit earlier this year discovered transfer station revenues had fallen more than $30,000 „ 32 percent „ from 20092011. Auditors expressed concern and referred the matter to local law enforcement. Marnell blamed the decrease in revenue on ñ poor management.î No crimes have been committed, he believes. ñ There were a lot of problems at the transfer station,î Marnell acknowledged. ñ WeÍ ve since made a number of changes and everything seems to be going well.î To prove his point, Marnell pointed to the audit itself. The audit covers 2009 to 2012. Once Marnell took office in January 2012 and the town made changes at the transfer station revenues increased $20,000. Marnell said the New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation was in Schroon during May to look into the issue. The police will turn their findings over to Sprague, who will then decide how to proceed. “I have not heard what their (police) final determination is yet,î Sprague said May 29. ñ As soon as I do, I will take the ap-

propriate action if needed.î The state review of the transfer stationÍ s books was initially intended to quantify the town’s handling of transfer station finances from January 2011 to July 2012. But after finding that the town reported accepting 50 tons of garbage less at the local station than it paid Franklin County Transfer Station to accept from April to June 2012, auditors probed as far back as 2009. All of the trash accepted at the Schroon Lake station is sent to Franklin County. The difference in reported tonnage of incoming compared to outgoing trash equates to more than $10,000 in ñ missingî revenue over that period alone, state auditors reported. Marnell said before he took office people used “bulk” payment cards to dispose of trash. Those cards were intended to be used for appliances and other large items, but Marnell said people used them for regular trash. The ñ bulkî cards have since been discontinued. There were also areas of the transfer station that were available to the public after hours. Marnell believes some people dumped without paying. Those areas have since been fenced, he said. Also, transfer station attendants may have under-charged people in some cases, the supervisor said. A new scale with a computer print out has since been installed at the facility, Marnell noted. The town has also placed two people at the station to help monitor trash disposal. ñ I think it was just a case of poor management,î Marnell said of the revenue drop. ñ I donÍ t expect any (criminal) charges. WeÍ ve made changes there and I think we have a handle on things now.î

Memorial Day was observed in Schroon Lake. The ceremony included Boy Scouts and members of the local American Legion.

Bamboo on the Boquet Y

ears ago there was a TV commercial about hamburgers with an old woman asking the question: ñ WhereÍ s the beef”? After numerous attempts at finding some trout on the Boquet River, many anglers are now asking the question: “Where’s the fish?” I met three different guys out fly fishing this past week, and they all have the same gripe: no fish, not even a rise. All of them found some choice spots with pools, runs and riffles, but no rising fish. These guys were seasoned veterans, not rookies! If I don’t catch fish, I figure it’s just another bad day. We all have them. Today was one of them. I caught every branch and leaf that was in and around the stream. Even if there was only one lone branch in the stream, with a small twig sticking out of the water, I caught it today. I even caught my dog. I was tying on By Rich Redman a new section of tippet when my dog walked by and got caught in the line. He pulled the rod out of my grasp. What a day. He was lucky! That dog was almost shark bait! I was holding a WWII era, vintage bamboo rod. It is a classic and I wanted to try my luck with it after 60 years of storage. I was trying to break it in, not break it in half. Bamboo rods are part of history and I had to have one just to try the laid back, slow motion of bamboo. ItÍ s a grandpa thing! Two of the guys I talked with said they were going out of state to fish again. They had just returned from Massachusetts, fishing and said it was great. They were from the Schroon Lake area and love the Adirondacks but are very frustrated with the stream fishing in this area. They were catching some The Boquet River beautiful fish in Massachusetts according to their stories. The guys were going back, a 4 to 5 hour drive they didnÍ t look forward to, but said it was worth it for the great fishing. The third fly fisherman from this area is so disgusted he said he was moving to Tennessee, leaving New York for good. This guy is a New York hunting and fishing guide. He said that between the lack of ruffed grouse habitat, the poor stream fishing, and now Gov. Cuomo’s SAFE ACT, he has had it. You canÍ t make a living being a guide if there is nothing to guide to. He asked me where I was fishing on the Boquet. I told him and he said he hasn’t caught a fish in that area in six years. This is the second time I have talked to someone about this one beautiful section. The same answer: no fish! Another thing we all noticed, the lack of fishermen along the stream. Maybe it’s because they are smarter than I am. If there’s no fish, then there’s no reason to fish. I guess when I leave home to go fish, I’ll just say I’m going water whipping instead! The truth hurts sometimes! No fishermen means, no local economic inputs. Isn’t that what tourism is supposed to be about, supporting local economies? Hunters and fishermen contribute millions to support habitat and fisheries management. License fees in this state, plus the taxes we pay on guns, ammunition and fishing equipment amount to millions. Local restaurants, gas stations, and motels all benefit from hunters and fishermen who travel in search of an adventure. As a retired conservationist and I mean a real conservationist „ one who believes in the wise use of natural resources, including wildlife and forest management „ I am disturbed at the lack of natural resource management in this area. Any trout biology book or wildlife management text will be filled with page after page about how to improve a fishery or wildlife habitat by cutting trees and allowing sun to reach the earth to provide energy to young plants. Streams need young shoots of willow and dogwoods growing along the banks to help solidify the stream banks and provide vegetation that will bend over with ice flows. Having shade trees is important for first order streams that support brook trout, but second order streams can have up to 50 percent grassy banks. Grassy areas that are managed and mowed every other year, supply grasshoppers and other terrestrial bugs to the water to feed fish during the summer months. Channel width and shape (geo-morphology), channel bottom materials (cobble and stone versus sand), stream temperature and stream vegetation are all pieces of the stream ecology puzzle and all need to be in place for a quality fishery. Wetlands that are managed and have drainage access to streams supply some needed nutrients. The sun allows periphyton, algae and diatoms to grow on the cobble rock in the stream bed. Algae and diatoms feed invertebrates. Periphytons have been called the pastures of the stream. They supply food for the macrophytes; the grazing invertebrates that in turn feed the fish. Mayfly nymphs, stoneflies and caddis all feed off the diatoms and other algae. In some cases they feed off each other. The fish feed off the invertebrates, nymphs, flies, worms and other bio-diversity of the stream bottom. Nutrients are as important as stream habitat structures. We need to look at all the factors and accept the fact that we need to do something about improving the streams and floodplains for the benefit of the communities along the streams. Private landowners need to do the work on their land and government needs to deal with transportation infrastructures. Roads, culverts and narrow bridges all effect stream flows, block fish passage or cause ice jamming. Wetlands and floodplains are the emergency overflow valves that collect water during storm events. When these areas are severed from the rest of the watershed by a road, the flood waters are forced downstream, increasing velocity and volume to cause damage to someone else. Over width streams lose the ability to carry sediment. They become shallow and allow anchor ice to buildup creating ice jams. There is a reason why the term FLOOD plain is used. Using geo-morphology engineering along with and stream restoration practices, we can correct the depth, width and flow of the stream to eliminate most of the sediment and ice jamming problems. Bridges and culverts need to be designed to allow greater flows and not restrict fish and invertebrate passage. Once many of the stream flow factors are done, many of the fisheries problems will be solved. Geomorphic engineering practices along with riparian vegetation management will improve the stream for the communities and the inhabitants of the stream. We can never stop the flooding, but we can help reduce many of the manmade contributions that accentuate the flooding problems. One group of dedicated trout enthusiasts is the Trout Unlimited folks. They are serious in their approach to stream management. They try to look at all the pieces of the stream morphology puzzle and then assist with the field work to improve the stream. The Rivermede project in Keene valley is one example of the excellent work they do. The East Branch of the Ausable River restoration project sets the baseline for future projects. If you are interested in trout, trout fishing, habitat restoration and floodplains like I am, this group is for you. I need to break in that bamboo rod on a beautiful trout. I hope it will be a New York fish, but Pennsylvania and Massachusetts are both prime for fly fishing right now! By the way, there is a serious movement to boycott buying hunting licenses this coming season as a way to let the governor know how upset hunters are with the SAFE ACT. When it comes to politics, money talks! There could be a lot of non – resident hunting and fishing licenses being bought by New Yorkers this coming hunting season!

Styrofoam worm containers are not biodegradable. Plastic trash lasts for years, and it is easily washed downriver by the spring ﬂoods.

Spring’s unpredictable wildlife

he spring seasonÍ s unpredictable weather has certainly provided some unique challenges for outdoor travelers with high temperatures in the 70Í s and 80Í s and lows dropping into the 30Í s, with snow, rain and heavy winds. Fortunately, the cool weather has helped to keep the blackflies at bay. And when it didn’t, at least you could hear them coming with the noise of thousands of black flies chattering their teeth in the cold. A much more common spring sound has been the faraway thump, thump, thump of a lawnmower attempting to start up far away in the forest. The noise is not actually mechanical by nature, it is natural in nature. And the fascinating element of the odd spring sound is the sound maker. The noise is the mating call of a male ruffed grouse, which is often referred to as a partridge. In order to amplify the sound the birds seek out a ï drumming tree,Í which is usually of a long, hollow tree laying on the ground. Drumming trees may be used by generations of birds, but contrary to the long accepted theory of drumming, the male grouse does not produce the drumming noise by thumping the tree with their wings. Rather, the male birds stand upright on the log and beat their wings furiously. So furiously in fact, that the tips of their wing feathers actually break the sound barrier. But instead of just cracking a whip, their feathers crack several whips to produce the rhythmic thumping that has become as signature a sound of spring as a loonÍ s lonesome wail or a pepperÍ s pestering peep. The effort also serves to ï buff them up,Í as they can lose more than 10 percent of their body weight due to the energy expended in drumming. In addition to attracting female birds, the maleÍ s powerful beats serve to ward off potential suitors from intruding on its territory, which may be as extensive as 6 to 8 acres or larger. While the male of the species is noisy and boisterous, female grouse are even more defensive of their territory. If the hen fails to lure an intruder away by feigning an injured wing at first, she will turn and confront a threat, no matter the size. I wonder at what point in the evolutionary process did members of the wild kingdom such as grouse, the killdeer and others, first learn to feign injury, to fake, and deceive as a matter of survival? I was once attacked by a female grouse defending her brood, while walking a woodland trail with a 16-foot guideboat on my shoulders. She stood in the trail, puffed up her chest, fanned her tail and refused to let me pass. When I attempted to go around her, she pecked me in the shin, and chased after me. I was the equivalent of an elephant to an infant, yet she refused to give way. She continued hissing and faking attacks until I hopped into the truck. For travelers who prefer not to go face to tail feathers with a mother grouse, there are better things to see and do this weekend.

Historic vehicles return to the Adirondack History Center

Possibly one of the finest events in the region will be hosted in Elizabethtown, as the Adirondack History Center again hosts the

Antique & Classic Car Show to celebrate the opening of their newest exhibit: The Human Face of theAdirondacks in the Civil War. The grand opening of the exhibit will be held in conjunction with the car show on Saturday June 8, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Collectors and enthusiasts from around the region will have a collection of some of the finest vintage and restored vehicles on display. There will be a lot of ï 50Í s, ï 60Í s and 70Í s muscle cars as well as roadsters, hot rods, vintage jeeps, and pickups. Local fire departments will also have antique fire trucks on display. The event will include, food, drink, prizes and a raffle for $1,000 in gas.

Dirty waters

A recent state record brook trout taken from Silver Lake by Rick Beauchamp, provides evidence of how quickly Adirondack waters have recovered from the blight of acid rain. Of course, ï Beau,Í as he is known to his friends, is such a capable angler he could probably catch trout in a bathtub. A little more than 30 years ago, Silver Lake, (located in the southern AdirondackÍ s Silver Lake Wilderness Area) was deemed too acidic to support fish life. At the time, nearly one quarter of the AdirondackÍ s fabled trout waters were considered acidified ‘dead lakes’ as a result of pollution from coal burning power plants and other industries in the midwest. Due to the efforts of several environmental groups including the Adirondack Council, the scourge of acid precipitation has been severely curtailed. Many ï deadÍ lakes have made miraculous recoveries. Nature takes care of its own, but in New York state it has had a lot of help from the fine folks at NYS DEC who worked with sportsmanÍ s groups to monitor the ponds, and restocked them with acid tolerant species such as the Temiscamie hybrid, a cross between a domestic brook trout and a wild Temiscamie (Canadianstrain) brook trout. It is incredible to think that 30 years later, once dead lakes are now producing brook trout in the five to six pound class.

Keep our waters clean

Even with such great success stories, there is much more to do. Although our local waters are far less acidic than they have been in more than 30 years, they still need help. Lead sinkers, soda cans, beer bottles and a host of similar trash can still be found on the edge or in the water of most local waters. In a recent survey, the top 10 items that were found in waterways include cigarette filters, food wrappers, plastic bottles, plastic bags, caps/lids, plastic cups/plates/utensils, straws/stirrers, beverage cans and paper bags. Fortunately, it appears there are now fewer Styrofoam worm containers left kicking around the local ponds and riverbanks. I expect this is the result of the introduction of biodegradable worm containers. Unfortunately, there are still some slovenly anglers who believe biodegradable means it is alright to toss the containers along the riverbank. A slob is a slob, regardless of whether their trash is biodegradable or not! Joe Hackett is a guide and sportsman residing in Ray Brook. Contact him at brookside18@adelphia. net.

Sentinels win title

Sentinels eliminated

Senior leadership lifted Ticonderoga to the Section VII Class C softball championship. The Sentinels beat Lake Placid, 8-7, in nine innings May 30 for the title. Ti rallied from a 6-0 deficit for the victory with seniors Katie Palandrani, Jordan McKee and Andrea Rich playing key roles. The Sentinels scored five times in the fifth inning — all with two outs „ to get back into the game. Palandrani, Rich and Nicole Fuller had doubles in the uprising. Down to their last out in the bottom of the seventh, Palandrani and Rich again came up big to tie the game and force extra innings. Palandrani reached on an error „ a play that could have ended the game „ and stole second base. Rich then drove her home with a double. Lake Placid scored in its half of the ninth to grab a 7-6 lead. In the bottom of the frame McKee walked and Haleigh Wright doubled. Palandrani then doubled to plate both runners and win the game. McKee was also pivotal on the mound. She started the game and struggled. Kylie Austin came on in relief, holding Lake Placid scoreless for sixth innings in a yeomanÍ s effort. When Austin tired in the ninth, the resilient McKee returned to the mound to snuff out a Placid rally. McKee was the winning pitcher.

Ticonderoga fell to Greenwich, 4-1, in the opening round of the New York State Public High School Athl;etic Association Class C softball tournament June 3. The Sentinels grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first inning on base hits by Haleigh Wright, Katie Palandrani and Jaelyn Granger. Ti managed just two more hits on the day, though, against Greenwich hurler Sarah Heimbach. Those hits belonged to Granger and Nicole Fuller. With the contest knotted, 1-1, Greenwich scored the decisive runs in the second inning. Three walks and three singles did the damage for Greenwich, the ninth-ranked team in the state. Jordan McKee came on in relief to quell the Greenwich rally. She pitched 4 2/3 innings of scoreless softball to keep Ti close.

Ti captures ninth straight Section VII Class C crown Ticonderoga wins title Ticonderoga routed Northern Adirondack, 18-1, to capture the Section VII Class C baseball championship May 28. ItÍ s the ninth straight section crown for the Sentinels and gives them a berth in the New York State Public High School Athletic Association tournament. Ti broke the game open with a seven-run third inning. Blake Gautreau keyed the rally with a two-run single. Ti also scored four runs on a wild pitch, walk and NAC errors. The Sentinels left no doubt about the outcome when they exploded for 10 more runs in the fifth frame. Mark Donohue, who had three runs batted in on the day, drove home a pair of runs with a base hit. Miles Austin, Ryan Trudeau and Jordan Woods also added RBI knocks in the uprising. Ty Denno had four hits on the day for the champs, while Donohue added a pair. Trudeau was the winning pitcher, allowing one and striking out 12 in six innings.

Crown Point takes championship Crown Point broke open a close game late as it beat MinervaNewcomb, 9-1, in the Section VII Class D softball championship game. ItÍ s was the eighth straight section title for the Panthers. Trailing 1-0, the Panther struck for five runs in the fifth inning and four more in the sixth for the win. The five run rally featured hits by Mara Vradenburg, Brittney Foote and Taylor Booth. Two walks, an error, a passed ball and a hit batter contributed to the rally. Alex MaceyÍ s two-run triple was the big blow in the sixth inning uprising. Macey was the game’s winning pitcher, allowing five hits and striking out eight.

Moriah eliminated Moriah lost to Chazy, 4-2, in the semifinal round of the Section VII Class D baseball tournament May 28. Trailing 4-0, Moriah managed to scratch out a run in the fourth on a base hit by Dakota Marcotte and a run in the fifth on a base knock by Tom Callahan.

Panthers advance Crown Point reached to the Section VII Class D softball tournament championship game with a 19-1 pasting of Chazy May 28. The Panthers scored in every inning and pitcher Alex Macey fired a three hitter as Crown Point coasted to the win. Macey fanned 11. Logan Harrington had four hits and seven runs batted in, including a grand slam homer. Macey added three hits and Ellen Kiely a pair for the winners.

Mark Donohue had two hits and three runs batted in as Ticonderoga routed Northern Adirondack, 18-1, to capture the Section VII Class C baseball championship May 28.
