Adirondack Coffee Roasters’ co-owner Dwane Bast readies his new single-serve coffee cup machine. Adirondack now roasts and manufactures single-serve coffee cups compatible with nearly all brewing machines found in homes or businesses.
PLATTSBURGH Ñ ItÕ s impossible in our region to get a locally sourced morning cup of Joe. Now, however, it is possible to get an individual serve cup that was both roasted and packaged locally and didnÕ t travel to the North Country all the way from California. Adirondack Coffee Roasters has been roasting raw coffee beans locally since 2007. This week, they put a machine into service to produce up to 900 of the individual serve cups (commonly known as Ò K Cups,Ó a trademarked name owned by Keurig) an hour for the quickly growing segment of their business. The ADK-cups are ground fresh the same day theyÕ re packaged and ready for sale. Owners Dwane and Krissie Bast have been planning the expansion since they first started offering single serve cups in March. Prior to getting their machine up and running, Bast would weigh cups out individually and package them one at a time. “We are the first local company to do them on-site. Hopefully

Duprey bests Bisso in acrimonious race for 115th seat By Shawn Ryan
shawn@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ Round two of the hotly contested race for New YorkÕ s 115th Assembly District has gone to incumbent Janet Duprey in resounding fashion. After squeaking through the Republican primary against Plattsburgh school teacher Karen Bisso this past summer, Duprey again faced Bisso in the general election. Bisso ran on the Conservative Party line after falling short on the Republican ticket. Duprey ran on both the Republican and Independent lines. Duprey attributed her relatively lackluster primary performance to low voter turnout and a perception among her supporters that she had the nomination handily wrapped up. She said that she had been approached in the intervening weeks by numerous supporters who said that they had neglected to vote because they
thought she had the nomination easily in hand. On Tuesday, those supporters appear to have made the trip to the polls. Ò IÕ m very pleased. IÕ m glad to have it over. IÕ m pleased with the turnout and the plurality of the vote,Ó Duprey said. In the primary, Duprey won solidly in the western part of the district, with the vote in Clinton County coming in much closer. Duprey ran much stronger in Clinton County in the general election, while securing her hegemony in Franklin County. In the final tally Duprey took 57 percent of the vote to BissoÕ s 31 percent, according to the New York State Board of ElectionsÕ totals. “It was definitely a landslide. I think it showed that the voters see me as someone who is honest, ethical, and someone who works hard for them. IÕ m very grateful to the voters. Now tomorrow, as soon as all my signs are picked up, IÕ m taking a much needed vacation, where I can get a steak dinner and eat it before itÕ s
cold,Ó said Duprey. ACRIMONY With no love lost between the candidates ever since Bisso challenged Duprey for the nomination two years ago, the race took a particularly acrimonious turn last week, when Bisso filed a complaint with the Assembly Ethics Committee, alleging that Duprey retaliated against supporters of Bisso in her official capacity as Assemblywoman. Duprey for her part, denied the accusation, saying that it showed the desperation of BissoÕ s campaign in the closing days of the race. According Assemblyman Chuck Levine, chair of the Assembly Ethics Committee, an investigation will be conducted into the allegation, regardless of the outcome of the election. FUTURE PLANS Ò I am incredibly blessed to have been given the opportunity to travel this district and meet itÕ s people,Ó said Bisso. Ò I am a lucky woman. I had the experience of

my life. I had wonderful supporters who I am thankful for. To those who did not vote for me, I apologize for not gaining your trust. Congratulations to the Assemblywoman.Ó Before the general election, Bisso said that if unsuccessful, this would be her final attempt at the 115th Assembly seat. Duprey, for her part, has not said for sure how many more terms she plans to run for the seat, if any. This will be her fifth term as Assemblywoman for the 115th.

Stefanik wins 21st District By Pete DeMola pete@denpubs.com
GLENS FALLS Ñ Elise Stefanik has won the race to represent New YorkÕ s 21st Congressional District, becoming the youngest woman ever to be elected to Congress. Stefanik, 30, soundly defeated opponents Aaron Woolf, a Democrat, and Green Party candidate Matt Funiciello, shortly after returns started coming late Tuesday, putting a definitive end to the prolonged race for the open seat being vacated by Congressman Bill Owens. With 564 of the 589 precincts in the 12 counties reporting shortly after midnight, Stefanik clocked 53.4 to WoolfÕ s 32 percent. Funiciello garnered 10.8%. At 10:40 p.m, Stefanik addressed her supporters at the Queensbury Hotel in Glens Falls. Ò Tonight we have made a little history in the North Country,Ó she said. Ò Every vote I take I will ask myself one question, will this help the residents of the North Country?Ó Ò Aaron and Matt were both gracious and I expressed my appreciation to them for their hard-fought races. You get to know your opponents well and get to know they are very good people.Ó
Stefanik pledged to cross the aisle: Ò I will work hard everyday to earn your respect and your trust, and hopefully your support.Ó Following StefanikÕ s speech, National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Greg Walden congratulated the candidate. Ò Elise Stefanik spent her campaign outworking her opponents and traveling from one end to the other of one of the countryÕ s largest congressional districts,Ó he said in a statement. Ò Elise brings a fresh perspective to Congress, and she has an extremely bright future as both a congresswoman for the North County and as a leader in the Republican Party.Ó Essex County Republican Party Chairman and Willsboro Supervisor Shaun Gilliland praised the outcome. Ò This will mean great things for the district,Ó said Gillilland, who recently took over the party helm from long-time chair Ron Jackson. Ò When you think of a freshman congresswoman going to Washington with so much horsepower behind her already, it can only mean good things.Ó Gillilland said in the time he has known Stefanik in his position as WillsboroÕ s chief administrator she has been willing to listen. Ò This is good for the county and for the disCONTINUED ON PAGE 5

We should all be allowed death with dignity
T
become enough. Brittany Maynard and her husband Dan Diaz moved from California to Oregon, going great lengths and overcoming countless obstacles in order to be residents of a state that allows death with dignity. As the subject ignites both whispers of disapproval and shouts of support across the country, we must consider exactly how this story would fit into our own lives, how we would handle knowing the one and only answer we should never have to face. Why do we allow those who have never endured a debilitating, terminal illness to dictate how we will live and die? Brittany MaynardÕ s face isnÕ t plastered across magazine stands and your Facebook newsfeed because she is young or because she is pretty, it is because she took a stand. Maynard allowed the public to look inside the most private, sacred part of a human beingÕ s life; She was a hero, she took this personally, and so should you. The young woman wanted to see a world where every human being is given the right to die with dignity, not just a select number of states. There are countless pieces comparing death with dignity to suicide, calling it a Òs lippery slope to euthanasiaÓ and questioning the moral lining of it all. Everyone has a reason for their personal beliefs, but the facts disprove many theories. A patient is directly involved in the DWD process. Many times the drug is even used simply for peace of mind, with only 752 out of 1,173 patients in Oregon actually ingesting the drug once it was administered. Do you know why we have the time to discuss this? Because we are not busy fighting for our lives. We arenÕ t watching our families fall apart as they hold on to the hope that a family member might beat terminal cancer. We donÕ t feel responsible for the tears our mothers cry every night or the nightmares our children have about when we will die. We donÕ t stay awake at night, making sure we are still breathing, looking around the room to hold on to all we have ever known. So, now when our hands sweat, our chest tightens, and we are short of breath due to the anxiety over death - be grateful. The physical anxiety we often feel when questioning the unknown is a thought that lives in our heads Ñ not a cancer that lives in the bodies of so many people, people like Brittany Maynard. She died for a cause that she believed in, and the least we can do is try to understand why. ÑD

Publisher’s Column
The Burgh Editorial
hings that give us great anxiety often come in the form of questions that will never be answered. What happens when you die? What will it feel like? Physical reactions can occur from the sudden anxiety: our hands sweat, our chest tightens, and thoughts become dizzy as a fog rushes over a personÕ s entire body. But then we wake up. The flash is over. We remember something that is on our side, and that is the one thing many of us are afraid of most: the unknown. What we must reflect on is that this is not to be feared, but revelled in. We can feel free inside of this very idea. Maybe we will live only 6 more months or maybe we will live for another 100 years, the beauty is that we will never know. Our minds can wander from day to day and let life take us wherever it chooses. One young woman, Brittany Maynard, was robbed of this freedom. On Nov. 1, in her bedroom, with her husband, mother, stepfather and best friend by her side, Maynard knew she would die. She knew because she chose this for herself. The 29-year-old Maynard is among a select group of people in the U.S. who had been evaluated by physicians and then administered a lethal dosage of medication that ended her life peacefully. Under the Death with Dignity Act, residents of Washington, Montana, Oregon, Vermont, and New Mexico can be prescribed this drug if they meet all requirements that the legislation details. The legislation states a person must be Òa competent adult who is a resident suffering from a terminal illness that will lead to death within six months.Ó After months of suffering excruciating headaches, Maynard was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer on Jan. 1, 2014. A few days after her diagnosis, she underwent a pair of surgeries that were unsuccessful and her tumor continued to grow. In April, doctors told the young woman she had an estimated six months left to live. She was given an answer to the unknown. Maynard thoroughly researched her options, hoping that something would provide her and her family with some sense of hope. She read about radiation and hospice care but found both options to be even more terrifying. She read that Òd ying naturallyÓ in her case, with stage 4 Glioblastoma, could mean slowly losing her cognitive ability altogether, her young body very much alive but her brain dying as she lost touch with her true self more everyday. The conclusion the brave woman came to was to take control over the last thing she could: when her life would end. She now knew how it would end, that it could happen any second, but she would choose when the unbearable pain had

Letters to the Editor
Editorial far from misleading
America no longer a Republic
To the Editor: The Valley News editorial “Nonprofits: Should they pay their fair share?Ó was simply asking a question: Should all nonprofits be exempt from paying their fair share of taxes? Historically, churches, schools, etc., have received nonprofit exemption. But, over the years, other organizations have sought and also received nonprofit exemption. To me, the question is why these organizations (other than churches, schools, etc.) should be exempt and raise the tax burden onto others? These organizations may argue that they provide jobs and add to the economy, but so does the working mother and father trying to raise a family Ñ sometimes working additional jobs just to pay their taxes. Who is more entitled to tax relief than those parents? Or, in addition, seniors who have worked their entire lives and paid taxes their entire lives. In conclusion, there should be further discussion, re: nonprofits, so the tax burden doesn’t just lie on the overburdened few, but, in fact, be a system where all Ò pay their fair shareÓ or ever-increasing taxes. Russell Manning, Lake Placid
To the Editor: I agree with your editorial, except for the last part. America was founded as a republic, and ceased to be one in 1923. Now we are a Ò great democracy”. The world’s first republic, Rome, thought of democracy as Ò mob ruleÓ or those least qualified to vote intelligently having majority power. As head of the senate, Caesar gave the vote to all Romans and made many promises. They voted him Emperor, and his first imperial act was to take.their vote away. Franklin and Jefferson were afraid of democracy getting out of control in our new country and wrote about their concerns. Their fears were well placed if one looks at what democracy today. Our political process is driven by bribes disguised as contributions to candidates. All the information on candidates is controlled by a biased media that is well aware of the power it has. Voters are reduced to little more than messengers carrying out the wishes of those who control the media. In NewYork the voting process is controled by a bipartisan effort that makes independant change impossible. Those who truly understand these conditions and know what the real issues are constitute one tenth of one percent. If they vote, it is nothing more than an unnoticed gesture. The system has become un stoppable. It will never give the country back. I do not vote

From page 3 trict,Ó he said. State Sen. Betty Little echoed those thoughts: Ò ItÕ s so exciting to get this district back into the R, Republican column,Ó she said. WOOLF CONCEDES In an emotional concession speech at the Cobble Hill Inn in Elizabethtown, Woolf emphasized the theme of family and bipartisanship. Ó I loved being your candidate,Ó he said behind a backdrop of supporters. Ò The most salient thing for me about this race was a better understanding those shared values. And I still believe those are the values the North Country needs and demands.Ó Woolf said he spoke with his two opponents prior to conceding. Elise Stefanik, he said, assured him she would bring the values of bipartisanship and working together to Washington. Ó I may not being going to Washington this time,Ó he said. Ò But I will continue to what IÕ ve been doing as a citizen.Ó He once again thanked his family and volunteers for making the experience of running for Congress one of the most rewarding and enriching in his life. Ò While we fell short of our goal, I am proud of what we accomplished and appreciate every vote, phone call, and door knock on my behalf. When citizens volunteer for their beliefs, it is the best part of our political process, and I am humbled to have been a part of it.Ó He ended with a bit of levity. Ó Alright, now letÕ s go have a chicken wing.Ó FUNICIELLO CONCEDES Surrounded by his friends in his Rock Hill Bakehouse Cafe in Glens Falls, Funiciello said that polling more votes than Aaron Woolf as a Democrat in Warren County did was a meaningful accomplishment likely to have substantial consequences in the future. This is really a phenomenal victory for people in the middle- and working classes,Ó he said to the cheers of his supporters. “We definitely stood up and let the two corporate parties know that we terribly resent their repeated attempts to buy our Congressional seat.Ó
, but I can see the problems and I will complain about them if I want. That is my right which has diminished some in my life.I usually am offered no candidates to vote for in this environment. That never changes and the system offers no means to change that. So I donÕ t vote. If voting in this country started to turn around this state of affairs there would be an executive order to stop that trend.

He said he was proud of his campaign workers who spread the word of his principles without spending the huge sums the Democratic and Republican parties did. Ó With only a shoestring budget, we have had a massive impact on this election, and we will build from this foundation!Ó Shortly after polls closed at 9 p.m, results from the districtÕ s 12 counties began rolling in. Stefanik bested Woolf in her stronghold of support, Fulton, Saratoga, Warren and Washington counties, drawing in victory in wide margins. Woolf eked out narrow victories in two counties: Clinton by five points, Essex by two. In Warren County, Funiciello drew 24.9% of the total vote. LAST DAY Woolf started Election Day in Elizabethtown, where he cast his ballot at the town hall located about a mile from the family home on Route 9 where he has lived intermittently since 1968. Ò IÕ m excited,Ó he said. Ò When I woke up this morning, it felt like Christmas morning.Ó Ò Can I have one too?Ó asked Eloise, his threeyear-old daughter, as she eyed the ballots. Ò Not until youÕ re 18,Ó said Woolf. The first-time candidate spent several moments in a booth next to his wife, Carolyn, and fed the ballot into a machine. Ò I come from a red, white and blue family,Ó he said. Ò Seeing your own name on the ballot is very emotional.Ó In elegiac remarks, Woolf said Americans are living in a country cleaved by partisanship.

Although he was unsure of his surroundings he was very sweet and calm. Bear is a good dog that needs to have a big yard to exercise in. He did go to a lovely new home, but was returned because he kept pulling and pushing over his new mom! Bear is very smart and does well with other dogs, cats and people alike. He does get excited and likes to jump up, but with some consistent and positive reinforcement we are sure that he will learn not to jump up. Maremma sheepdogs are mostly used as livestock guardians; they usually live with the herd of animals they are protecting. This big sweet heart has only been an indoor/family dog. Please consider giving this gorgeous and sweet dog a chance in a loving home! He is good with kids, but doesnÕ t really seem to want to play with them too much. He really enjoys rolling around in the grass and greeting his humans when they come home from work! Bear is current on vaccinations, has been neutered and is now ready to meet his new family!
in Clinton County. Following a second event in Plattsburgh, she cast her ballot at the Willsboro VisitorÕ s Center. Accompanied by local officials, the candidate greeted campaign workers and thanked them for her efforts. She emerged from the voting booth with a thumbs up. Ò I feel really great,Ó she said. Ò I hope to put an additional fragment in the glass ceiling.Ó The candidate said she felt energized from her positive campaign. Ò The primary was good practice,Ó she joked. Afterwards, she appeared on Hotline, the radio program hosted by Watertown Mayor Jeffrey Graham, and rallied staffers in Glens Falls. Matt Funiciello, who turned 47 on Tuesday, cast his vote in Hudson Falls shortly after 3 p.m. Ò Voting for non-corporate candidates - hope you did too!Ó he tweeted shortly afterwards. 15 MONTHS Following a stint in Washington, the Harvard grad moved to the district in 2012. She took a position at her familyÕ s plywood business and began drafting the blueprints for her candidacy, which she announced in Aug. 2013. The Congresswoman-elect had initially planned on a come-from-behind campaign against Owens and began methodologically traveling the district, meeting with officials and locking down support. But the Plattsburgh-based DemocratÕ s sudden retirement in January was a game-changer that sent Democrats scrambling for a candidate. After a series of possible candidates passed on the race, Woolf stepped forward and was nominated in February in Long Lake by an unpublicized conclave. Following his announcement, Woolf, 50, went into hibernation for a month, a decisions analysts have widely said inflicted future damage on his campaign from which he never quite recovered. In March, three-time GOP candidate Matt Doheny emerged and engaged Stefanik in a brutal primary. American Crossroads entered the fray three weeks before that election in June, the first ever in a primary race, and spent $770,000 pummelling Doheny, a factor he later blamed on his loss. Woolf ceded the spotlight to the GOP and
faded into the background, content to let the candidates duke it out. But by the time he reemerged in early-summer to introduce himself and his policies to voters, the GOP had already begun to weave a narrative that dogged him throughout the campaign Ñ that of the urbane millionaire. The candidate spent much of the summer bogged down in defending himself from a flurry of attacks from the right, including questions related to his investment portfolio and a flotilla of problems with his Brooklyn-based business, including tax, labor and inspection issues. His platforms Ñ increasing the minimum wage, enacting the Buffett Rule, closing tax loopholes, investing in infrastructure Ñ were largely lost in the noise. But unlike Stefanik and Funiciello, both of whom excelled at sticking to the script, Woolf could never quite hatch a one-size-fits-all rebuttal to put these issues to bed, opting instead for cyclical and uneven responses. The National Republican Congressional Committee spent the summer excoriating Woolf, something that often left the campaign breathless and unable to effectively combat. County Democratic committees appeared silent and surrogates, if there ever were any at all, did little to generate enthusiasm amongst the rank and file. WoolfÕ s attacks on Stefanik Ñ namely on what he said was a refusal to detail her thoughts on the future of Medicare and Social Security — inflicted little damage on the candidate, who continued to focus on her sunny brand of retail politics. She even referred to herself as the Energizer Bunny. And then there was Funiciello. While the baker excoriated both candidates as corporate-backed elists whose policies were misaligned with that of the working class, he focused the brunt of his attacks on Woolf, who opted to ignore him, even up until the second debate, when Funiciello took him to task for it. As Funiciello rose in the polls Ñ the last showed him with 11 percent Ñ conventional wisdom was that he was draining support from Woolf’s left flank. And as the Democrat’s poll numbers stagnated, Funiciello called on him to drop out. To continue reading this story, please go online to www.denpubs.com

Those will only use Keurig K-cups, a fact the company does not make widely known. The idea for making the cups locally has been on BastÕ s mind for years, but it wasnÕ t until a couple years ago that the process was even possible. Ò Our customers have been asking us for single serve cups for years and years,Ó he says. Ò It was a patented process until 2012.Ó Now, anyone can produce single serve cups. Bast is hoping that the increased production capacity will help Adirondack expand from individual consumers into more of a business market, all with locally produced cups. From nothing in March, single serve cups are now about 10 percent of the sales at Adirondack Coffee Roasters. With the new machine and a potential increase in sales, Bast is hoping to hire new employees soon to keep up with demand. He is pursuing Hannaford Super MarketÕ s Ò Closer To Home ProjectÓ as a way to market the ADK-cups and says that he has more than the capacity to keep up with increased demand.

Class B championship goes to Indians after late comeback Justin Stevens breaks Section VII single-season rushing record in loss By Barrie Finnegan
denpubs@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE Ñ It was a rematch a year in the making, and this time, Peru wouldnÕ t let Beekmantown by. The Indians rallied from down 21-7 in the third quarter, scoring the go-ahead touchdown with 13.2 seconds remaining to capture the Section VII Class B title Nov. 1. With the game tied at 21, Peru Coach Nick Damiani decided to give his flanker option play a try. Anthony Gallo looked to be on a run play until he pulled up and threw to a wide open Troy Lawyer in the end zone for the win. Last year Beekmantown beat Peru in the title game and the two faced off again in the opening week this season when the Indians won 20-15, setting up the Saturday rubber match. The game started with the Eagles getting the ball and giving the Indians a heavy dose of Justin Stevens. Stevens carried the majority of the 65 yards as the Eagles went downfield, finishing the drive with an 8-yard touchdown run. It was the only scoring in the first quarter. On the first play of the second quarter, Beekmantown’s Matt Villa jumped a route and came up with an interception with a lot of daylight in front of him. Villa went 69 yards for a touchdown,

giving the Eagles a 14-0 lead. The Indians came roaring back just over two minutes later. Quarterback Blake Altizer took it in from 12 yards out to tighten the game to 14-7 going into halftime. Altizer finished 6-19 for 55 yards and an interception and ran the ball six times for 37 yards. Stevens opened the third quarter scoring with a 5-yard run to extend the Eagles lead to 21-7. He finished with 155 yards and
two touchdowns, pushing his season total to a Section VII record 1,965 yards. Behind by 14 with third-quarter winding down, the IndiansÕ Brandon Sawyer (153 yards, two touchdowns) said he knew right then that he had to Ò kick it in.Ò Sawyer said something just clicked and his Indians run game came to life. They drove, with Sawyer handling most of the carries, down the snowy field to score on a 9-yard Sawyer touchdown run with 2:19 left in the third quarter. Starting the fourth, Sawyer seem determined to continue the running game success. Halfway through the final quarter Sawyer scored on a 2-yard run to tie the game at 21. On the next Beekmantown drive, Stevens again began to run the ball well until a fourth-and-3 when the Peru defense stepped up to stop him and get the ball back with 3:23 left. Peru started marching with again some nice runs by Sawyer to set up the final touchdown. Beekmantown got the ball back but both plays were unsuccessful, giving Peru the title. The Indians will face Section X champion Franklin Academy Nov. 8 in Potsdam. It was a tough ending to the high school career of Justin Stevens. After the game Stevens was visibly disappointed and the congratulations on breaking the single-season rushing record didnÕ t seem to matter, though he seemed grateful as former Peru player BJ Godfrey, representing previous record-holder Sam Godfrey, went into the post game Eagles huddle and congratulated Stevens.

denpubs@denpubs.com CLINTONVILLE Ñ The Saranac Lake Red Storm triumphed over the Ausable Valley Patriots on Nov. 1 to win the Section 7 Class C championship 42-23. The Red Storm dominated the Patriots throughout the game. The Saranac Lake rushing game was led by Ty Marmion with five carries for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Marmion also had two receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown. Alex Donaldson accompanied Marmion as a receiving leader with four grabs for 40 yards and two touchdowns. Torin Smith scored the last Red Storm touchdown. Starting quarterback Tristin Fitzgerald threw 9 for 13 for 125 yards and four touchdowns. The first half passing game was much more

successful for the Patriots than in the second half. In the first two quarters, quarterback William Coats threw 13 for 18, connecting with Sul-
tan Sikandar for a touchdown. He was 4 for 12 after the break and picked up 211 passing yards overall.
Their second half scoring was the result of rushing touchdowns from Mark Whitney and Coats. Receiving targets were Tyler Champine, who had eight touches for 55 yards and Nate Manning with five for 51 yards. Defensive leaders for the Red Storm were Myckael Colon, who had a sack and an interception, Dondi Duffy with an interception and two tackles and Nicholas Sweeney, who had two tackles and a fumble recovery. The PatriotsÕ Keith Christensen had two tackles and a fumble recovery, Nate Manning had four tackles and a safety and Jaime Coolidge and Sultan Sikandar each made two tackles. Saranac Lake Coach Eric Bennett addressed his team after their win; he emphasized responsibility and smart choices. His parting words were, Ò NowÕ s the time to focus and get it done. You control your future.Ó The 15th-ranked Red Storm will face the Section X Ogdensburg Blue Devils, the number seven Class C team in the state, on Nov. 8 in Clintonville.
Gadway, Champagne lead field in Section VII state qualifier
Knights wrap up perfect fall By Andrew Johnstone
andrew@denpubs.com ELIZABETHTOWN Ñ PlattsburghÕ s Jeriqho Gadway and Seton CatholicÕ s Margaret Champagne took the top spots in the Section VII cross country state qualifier meet Oct. 31 under blue skies at the Cobble Hill Golf Course. Gadway ran the 3.05 mile course in 14:47 to lead the boys while ChampagneÕ s 17:58 concluded a dominant season against section competition for Seton Catholic. Peru (Class B), Plattsburgh (Class C) and Lake Placid (Class D) were winning schools in the boysÕ race while Peru (Class B), Saranac (Class C) and Seton Catholic (Class D) claimed wins in the girlsÕ race. Each winning school will send its top seven runners from the Oct. 31 race to the state meet at SUNY Canton on Saturday, Nov. 8. The top five finishers in each class not from the winning school will also compete. Both Gadway and Champagne head into states with a strong resume of wins.
Ò DidnÕ t get what I want, but I broke my PR (personal record),Ó said Gadway after the race. Ò States, people are expecting me to win this year, so its a little nerve-wracking, but I think IÕ m going to do it again.Ó Seton Catholic, meanwhile, looks poised for years of strong cross country performances. Champagne is a junior, second-place finisher Sofia DeJordy is in eighth grade and overall four Knights middle schoolers placed in the top 20. Seton Catholic’s girls finished the CVAC regular season at 20-0, followed by Saranac (17-3) and Peru (16-4). Lake PlacidÕ s boysÕ team had nearly as good a mark, going 19-1 against Section VII competition. Second place when to Saranac (17-3) and Plattsburgh (16-4) and Peru (16-4) finished with the same third place record.

Beekmantown gets by NCCS in OT for 2-1 Class B final win Eagles score go-ahead goal in second overtime By Andrew Johnstone
andrew@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ The Eagles were due. After falling shy of the Section VII Class B title two years in a row, Beekmantown overcame a hard-playing Northeastern Clinton squad with two goals over 90 minutes apart for the 2-1 championship win in overtime. With 4:41 left in the second overtime, Kallie Villemaire threaded the ball through the Northeastern Clinton defense to Kenna Guynup who put it by goalie Jessica Cartier for the gamewinning goal. Soon after, it was time to celebrate the crown, a first for all but one player on the team. Only
Villemaire, a senior, had experienced a sectionals win after a semifinals loss two years ago and a shootout loss to Saranac in the championship last year. Ò I give (Cougars coach) Tim Surprenant a lot of credit,Ó said Beekmantown Coach Pete Bursik. Ò He put in a great game plan against us. They held us off if it wasn’t for the first goal we scored.Ó The first goal Bursik referred to was a Kirsten Villemaire netter just 13 seconds into the game. Beekmantown took the kickoff, raced downfield, and Kim Ratliff set up the goal with an assist to the middle of the box. Ò That was actually a set play we put in yesterday,” explained Bursik. “I watched the film to see what they do on the kickoffs. It actually worked. We were lucky.Ó Though the game started off looking like what could have turned into a rout, the Cou-

gars tightened up immediately and scored a goal of their own. Katie Matott came up the right side and hit Sierra Gonyo, who had gotten past the Beekmantown defense, giving Gonyo a one-on-one with keeper Maggie Chauvin. Gonyo put a hard, low shot out of reach into the left corner of the net for the tie with 25:14 left in the half. Both goalies made big saves down the stretch, including Cartier keeping Kallie Villemaire out of the net on two good looks in the second half. Cartier made 11 saves overall while Chauvin stopped six shots for the Eagles. Beekmantown nearly doubled Northeastern ClintonÕ s shots on goal 19-10, but quick defense on both sides kept good looks on goal low throughout regulation. With the second overtime ticking down, the Eagles finally had their chance. Kallie Villemaire took the ball downfield and as the Cougars defense closed on her she put a clean pass out in front of Guynup, who took the ball in stride and buried it low and left in the net.
Ò Kallie has been such a leader for this team and IÕ m so happy for her,Ó said Bursik when asked what the win meant for the senior star. “Her play on the field this year has been so unselfish. She’s looked to get her teammates involved all the time and proved it on that last goal.Ó With the win, Beekmantown will face off against the Section X champ on Nov. 4. Bursik said he feels good moving beyond sectionals, though whatever happens, heÕ s thrilled by the outcome of the championship. The coach added that one of the people this season was dedicated to was Carlee Casey, who started for the Eagles as a sophomore before missing both her junior and senior seasons with torn ACLÕ s. Beekmantown moved to 17-0 with the win and will be representing Section VII as the 17th ranked team in the state. The Cougars wrapped up their season 10-6 overall. Ò IÕ m thrilled, I really am,Ó said Bursik. Ò This is a great feeling. IÕ m really proud of this team.Ó
Beekmantown boys earn Class B title win over NCCS 5-2 Four second-half goals too much for Cougars By Andrew Johnstone
andrew@denpubs.com PLATTSBURGH Ñ The Eagles broke a close game with a three-goal blast in a four minute span of the second half to win the Section VII Class B championship over the Cougras 5-2 on Thursday night. Skye Dominy got Beekmantown rolling under two minutes into the second half when he put a bicycle kick into the net, drawing Ò shot of the yearÓ comments from the stands. Ryan Waterbury and Kyle Constanty followed with two quick goals and a 1-0 halftime lead ballooned to 4-0 just over five minutes into the second. Ò I think that what IÕ m most excited about is that both the boys and girls won on the same night,Ó said Eagles Coach Ryan Loucy. Ò ThatÕ s just great for our school and our community.Ó The girlsÕ team picked up their championship win in overtime, also against Northeastern Clinton, on the same field just two hours before the boys did the same. Loucy said the CougarsÕ best defender appeared to hurt his hamstring and that the Eagles came out of the half planning to make the
Cougars chase, scoring four unanswered before Northeastern Clinton got on the board. Ò Our guys are very persistent and they just keep banging away,Ó said Loucy. Ò Eventually youÕ re going to get some to go in.Ó Beekmantown got on the board 11:39 into the game when Kaden Baugh scored on a Ryan Waterbury corner into traffic in front of the net, but neither team would score again until after the break. Then the EaglesÕ offensive assault began. DominyÕ s highlight-real netter came on a Baugh assist before Eathan Bacon set up Waterbury for his score. Dominy picked up an assist of his own on ConstantyÕ s goal a minute and a half afterward. Alex Price scored Beekmantown’s fifth and final goal midway through the second with Bacon picking up his second assist of the game. Despite the 5-0 hole, Northeastern Clinton went on a scoring flurry of its own shortly after PriceÕ s goal. Alex Gonyo scored twice, the goals coming less than two minutes apart, to get the Cougars on the board and within three of the Eagles. It would, however, be too little too late, as neither team scored over the final 17:33. Despite the seven total points in the game, shots on goal were relatively low. The Eagles put 13 toward the net to the CougarsÕ 6. Northeastern Clinton goalie Brady Vassar made six saves and Colden Mrak stopped four in net for Beekmantown. With the win the Eagles claimed their third championship in four years and second in a row. The Cougars took the title in 2010 and 2012 and wrapped up this season with 11-5, 8-4 record to go along with the championship appearance. Beekmantown, 15-2 overall and ranked 14th in the state by the New York State Sportswriters Association, will look to make a strong showing outside of Section VII. Ò We want to go further, thatÕ s our goal,Ó said Loucy. Ò We had to get this out of the way first. Now weÕ ve got to go on and represent our section well.Ó

The difference this time was their sixth consecutive Section VII Class B title they left with after beating the Peru Indians in three on Nov. 1. Ò The girls have worked hard,Ó said Eagles Coach Shana Hileman. Ò We walked into this season just taking one week at a time, one game at a time.Ó Beekmantown (17-0) won the first two sets 25-10 and 25-11 before a smothering 25-5 final set for the win. Michaela Lafountain, who led the team with 24 assists to go along with her six points, two blocks and a dig, said the win felt great. Ò I was on the team the past four years that we got this,Ó said Lafountain, a junior captain. Ò So it feels good to get it again.Ó
Skye Gates had 15 points, three aces, one kill and eight digs for the Eagles and Lydia Bailey added 16 points, two aces, two kills and six digs. Senior captain Grace Kelly had five points, one ace, two blocks, seven digs and led the Eagles in kills with 12. Hileman said that the teamÕ s experience from three tournaments this season helped their play all year and will serve them well heading out of the section and into regionals. Ò WeÕ re excited, weÕ re ready,Ó said Hileman. Ò WeÕ ve done everything we could (to prepare for regionals).Ó The Indians, who were without Taylor Higgins because of injury, finished the season 11-6 behind only Beekmantown and AuSable Valley in Section VII. Senior captain Madeline Kaplan led Peru with three points, one ace, six kills and six digs. Megan Kelso, the team’s other captain, finished the game with six assists. With the win, the Eagles have now set their sights on continuing their strong play against teams with yearround club players. TheyÕ ll play again on Nov. 8 at 12 p.m. in Saranac. Ò The girls are excited,Ó said Hileman. Ò WeÕ re enjoying this moment for an hour or two but MondayÕ s a new day. The way we practice every single day is like Michaela Lafountain (5) and Grace Kelly (10) stuff Peru’s Jenny Cibula in Beekmantown’s 3-0 win. we’re playing five games against a Section II team.” Photo by Andrew Johnstone
Hornets fall to Patriots 3-2 in Class C championship thriller
Patriots and Hornets go to the wire in 28-26 fifth and final set of Section VII final By Andrew Johnstone
andrew@denpubs.com SARANAC — With the game tied 2-2 and the fifth set knotted up at 22, it was AuSable ValleyÕ s or PlattsburghÕ s game. The two teams tied again at 23, 24, 25 and 26 points as the nailbiter continued, ending when the Hornets were the first to slip up. A Plattsburgh serve went into the net, the Patriots made a huge block at the net and AuSable Valley went on to its fifthconsecutive Section VII Class C title Nov. 1. After Beekmantown and Lake Placid won their class titles in 3-0 sweeps, the third and final matchup of the day lived up to the billing in an exciting, back and forth championship.
Plattsburgh’s Shannon Bracale, a senior captain on the team, elevates for one of her 10 kills. Bracale also had 11 points, 10 digs and a block in a strong championship performance. Photos by Andrew Johnstone
Ò The fact that we pushed across and were able to continue on with our five-peat was the best feeling,” said Patriots senior Jocelyn Racette, an energetic leader in the win. Ò Especially for our six seniors, best thing we could have asked for, hands down.Ó Racette finished with 17 points, four aces, three kills, 11 digs and four assists and was a constant motivator as the game went back and forth. Shelby Bourgeois has 21 points, two aces, 11 kills, three digs and two blocks while Lindsay Brown tallied 14 points, four aces, 12 kills, 13 digs and a block to go for a volleyball triple-double. Ò The word I use a lot in my coaching is Ô persevere,Õ said Patriots Coach Sandra Hoey. “They just find a way to figure it out and
get it done. They have a lot of heart.Ó Hoey said the goal coming into the year was to five-peat, but Plattsburgh certainly made it tough. The Hornets won the first set 25-23 before the Patriots won two tight sets of their own, 25-22 and 26-24. Plattsburgh, facing elimination, came out on the winning end of a 26-24 fourth set. Then, the wild fifth set began. The Hornets came back from down four to tie the game at 22 and going up a point on an ace. AuSable Valley tied it up again, only to have Plattsburgh go up 24-23 with a chance to win but failing to take the next point. MaloneyÕ s ace put the Patriots up 25-24, but her next serve went out of bounds. Later, another AuSable Valley serve fell outside the lines, but the Hornets had their own serving fault as the ball went into the net for the 27-26 Patriots lead. Then, a final play at the net would seal it. Ò I did know that it was going to be a tight game,Ó said Hoey. Ò To beat a team three times it tough. We went five sets the first time and three the second. Volleyball is such a game of momentum.Ó Alexandra Lincoln (30) and Lizzy Maloney (14) combined for 44 Patriots digs, with Maloney adding eight points and 10 assists and Lincoln having six points and five kills. Lexi Joy led the Patriots in assists with 12 and Karissa Stevens had two points, one ace, two kills, six digs, one block and two assists. Plattsburgh had firepower of its own, with Lauren StanleyÕ s huge 13 points, seven digs, three kills, 37 assists and six aces performance. Shannon Bracale added 11 points, 10 digs, 10 kills and a block. Amanda McMahon tallied five points, 18 digs, 11 kills and two aces while Brianna Coon had 17 digs and 14 kills. The HornetsÕ Sydney Burdo added 20 points serving to go with her four digs, four kills and four aces. The game was by far the loudest of the night, with both fan bases cheering deafeningly, the roars getting louder in late timeouts. Hoey had plenty of thanks for AuSable ValleyÕ s supportive parents and fans after the match. Now, the Patriots are getting ready to head out of Section VII and into regionals. TheyÕ ll play the winner of the Section II/X matchup in Saranac on Saturday, Nov. 8 at 4 p.m. “I think we’re definitely going to pull through,Ó said Racette. Ò And hopefully get a win out of it.Ó
Lake Placid 3, Northern Adirondack 0 SARANAC Ñ The Blue Bombers held the Bobcats in the teens in all three sets for the 3-0 sweep and Section VII Class D title Nov. 1. Lake Placid (7-10) jumped out to an 11-0 lead in the first set before winning it 25-14, following it up by holding Northern Adirondack to 12 points in the second. In the third, Melissa RathÕ s serving helped the Bombers to an early 13-1 advantage. Northern Adirondack outscored Lake Placid from there, but the damage was already done and the set went the BombersÕ way 25-18. More on this game at www.denpubs.com/news/sports
