Betty Little announces retirement Longtime state senator opts out of re-election By Sarah Elizabeth Morris STAFF WRITER

Last term: Senator Betty Little speaks at a press conference in Plattsburgh. There, she announced that she was not running for re-election in 2020, and will spend her last term working hard for the people of the 45th district. Photo by Sarah Elizabeth Morris

NEW YORK | New York state Republican Sen. Betty Little has announced that she will not be running for re-election in 2020, choosing not to run against five-year-long Clinton County treasurer and Democratic Senate runner Kimberly Davis. Little, an upstate New York native, started serving the 45th district in 2003 and has been serving in the senate for almost 20 years. “Representing a vast district comprising six counties, two cities, 83 towns, 20 villages and the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe at Akwesasne, I have had a very unique perspective to learn a lot about this region and gotten to know many good people working hard to make better lives for themselves, their families and their communities,” Little said in an official statement. “As a state representative, I’ve always felt the best I can do is to complement those efforts. Whether it has been through legislation, or funding for so many different

and important initiatives and projects, being in a position to help has been so rewarding.” Little’s news came shortly before her visit to the City of Plattsburgh on Dec. 5. She held a press conference at the Clinton County Government Center that afternoon to go into more depth on her decision. She thanked everyone she met throughout her career as a public figure and says the choice to retire was not an easy one; however, she feels what she set out to do no longer needs her. “I can’t say enough what an honor and a real privilege it has been for me to be able to do this,” Little said at the press conference in Plattsburgh. “As difficult as this day is, it’s time … I will not run for re-election in November [2020].” During her last term in office, Little wants to focus on working to make sure the North Country has broader WiFi coverage and cellphone service, especially along I-87, where service is spotty. The need for cell service, according to Little, is safety, and she’ll continue to push for the North Country to become more modern. Other politicians who heard of Little’s retirement voiced their responses and well wishes to the senator. See BETTY LITTLE » pg. 8

Storm damage in Essex County exceeds $4 million County hoping for federal aid for public and individual losses By Tim Rowland STAFF WRITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | Essex County suffered $4 million worth of damage from a Halloween storm that felled trees, washed out roads, downed power lines and caused significant destruction to private property. Together with the damage reported by 10 other New York Counties, the devastation meets the federal threshold for federal financial assistance, said Donald Jaquish, director at Essex County Emergency Services.

Damage has been inspected by both state officials and representatives from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and “now it depends on the president,” Jaquish said. State officials verified the county estimate, and FEMA was on the scene soon after,which Jaquish said he took as a good sign. There are two aspects to the funding request, one public, one individual. The public covers damage to roads, bridges and other infrastructure, while the individual would cover those who lost private property. The government could approve public help without approving individual aid, Jaquish said. The larger share of the damage from the flood occurred in the Schroon River valley through North Hudson and Schroon. Jaquish said about 50 homes were damaged, and two or three were destroyed. See STORM DAMAGE » pg. 9

Some washed out roads are still closed following the Halloween Day flood.

A long-held tradition brought Santa and Mrs. Claus across Lake Champlain for Christmas Magic in Essex. The jolly old elf arrived on the Essex-Charlotte ferry early on Saturday with Lake Champlain Transportation Co. providing engine power in place of reindeer.

Westport Fire District will put $400,000 from their building reserve fund toward the project and bond for the remaining amount, not to exceed $2.8 million. “I want to thank the voters for their support and their trust in us,” Board of Fire Commissioners Chairman Jim Rule said after the official count on Tuesday. He wanted to address one question raised by several residents who spend winter in warmer climes. “We had some comments from people who left for the winter, wondering why we didn’t have absentee ballots. We can’t for a referendum like this, it is not allowed by law,” Rule said. The new fire station will provide the all-volunteer fire company with enough garage space to store and manage safe entry and exit of all personnel and fire engines, ambulance rigs, trucks and related equipment. The station design has additional room for a decontamination shower, laundry and lockers to store firefighters’ bunker gear. Construction is expected to begin early next summer,

Renovations add space for staff in Essex Town Hall

View from town office rooms on the renovated second floor at the Town Hall in Essex.

Final step looks to restoration of Wright’s Inn ballroom By Kim Dedam STAFF WRITER

ESSEX | Town staff have moved into newly renovated rooms on the second floor of the town hall here. The $160,000 project is finished, having cleared debris, repaired walls and torn plaster to remake space that had been unused for decades. The Town Hall was built as an inn in 1790 by an early settler, Daniel Ross. It was sold and expanded in 1799 by Daniel Wright, and remained in use as lodging for over 150 years. Supervisor Ron Jackson said they kept all of the antique wavy glass that has rippled

views of the Lake Champlain waterfront, its docks and shops for generations. The second-floor hallway was widened by six inches, Jackson said, but doorways for the various former inn rooms were left intact, as were hand-hewn beams that now show through new drywall, one revealing a hand-cut iron nail that still holds a mortise joint in place. Town of Essex Account’s Clerk Angel Forbes says the new space is comfortable. Warm ivory paint softens the walls against deep sage trim. Her desk faces tall windows overlooking the historic brick and stone buildings that line Main Street. “I’m very happy with it,” she said of the renovation. Flooring along the long corridor upstairs remains somewhat uneven, though insulated and covered in slate-colored carpet. See FIRE STATION VOTE » pg. 7

St. Joseph’s names Connors as board chair SARANAC LAKE | St. Joseph’s Addiction Treatment & Recovery Centers, based in Saranac Lake, has announced that Vince Connors has been named as chairperson of the agency’s board of directors. Connors, a 1985 graduate of St. Joseph’s, succeeds Deacon Stephen DeMartino, of Croton-on-Hudson, as board chair. DeMartino provided leadership for St. Joseph’s Board from 2008 to 2019 and will remain on the board as vice chair. Connors, a 34-year member of Saint Joseph’s alumni organization, the Fellowship, has been a

Board member since 2001, having previously served as the Vice-Chair. Vince is a retired physician’s assistant from OPWDD’s Sunmount in Tupper Lake, where he worked for over 33 years, serving people with developmental disabilities. While the business operations of St. Joe’s and his Board governance responsibilities occupy most of his Board time, Vince is determined to further the Reducing the Stigma campaign initiated by New York state. “I look forward to the day when substance use disorders are accepted on par with other chronic diseases,”

Connors says. “Unfortunately, there are negative connotations associated with the diagnoses associated with substance use disorders not associated with other chronic diseases,” he points out. “We are currently strategizing a campaign to address a specific issue that unfairly penalizes people with substance use disorders who are in sustained, long-term recovery.” St. Joseph’s Addiction Treatment & Recovery Centers operates a inpatient facility, long-term residential program for male Veterans, and a family program on their main campus in Saranac

Lake. The agency provides adolescent inpatient treatment at their facility in Massena; outpatient services through eight sites in Essex, Franklin, and St. Lawrence counties, Supportive Housing in Malone, Massena, Saranac Lake and Ticonderoga; Jail Programs in Essex and Franklin counties, and aftercare programs. Recently, the agency began operations on the campus of Adirondack Health in Saranac Lake; and with its two Mobile Treatment Units serving Franklin and Essex counties.

Fruit, maple, honey producers urged to consider crop coverage NEW YORK | U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Executive Director Jennifer Bosley reminds producers to review available USDA crop risk protection options such as the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP). NAP covers losses from natural disasters on crops for which no permanent federal crop insurance program is available, including forage and grazing crops, fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, floriculture, ornamental nursery, aquaculture, turf grass, ginseng, honey, maple sap, bioenergy and industrial crops. The following are the upcoming NAP crop coverage deadlines in New York for the 2020 crop year: • Feb. 1, 2020: greens, herbs, lettuce, onions. • March 15, 2020: spring seeded fruits and vegetables, hops, sunflowers. • May 1, 2020: 2021 ornamental and non-ornamental nursery crops. NAP policies allow producers to protect their investment by

purchasing coverage for non-insurable crops. Natural disasters are an unavoidable part of farming and ranching and FSA programs like NAP help producers recover when they experience a loss.

NAP BUY-UP COVERAGE OPTION

The 2018 Farm Bill reinstates higher levels of coverage, from 50 to 65 percent of expected production in 5 percent increments, at 100 percent of the average market price. Producers of organics and crops marketed directly to consumers also may exercise the “buy-up” option to obtain NAP coverage of 100 percent of the average market price at the coverage levels of between 50 and 65 percent of expected production. NAP basic coverage is available at 55 percent of the average market price for crop losses that exceed 50 percent of expected production. Buy-up coverage is not available for crops intended for grazing.

NAP SERVICE FEES

For all coverage levels, the new NAP service fee is the lesser of $325 per crop or $825 per producer per county,

Working for veterans

By Dan Alexander

By Elise Stefanik

PUBLISHER

I’ve been pretty fortunate in my lifetime. Blessed with good health, a strong, loving two-parent family growing up. They not only supported me but passed along many valuable life lessons including a strong religious faith and a solid work ethic. I was fortunate enough to find a wonderful partner, and parlay those gifts into a pretty good life… not perfect, but certainly better than some. Over the years, I’ve had the great fortune to be a part of the United Way Campaign. I’ve seen first hand what the United Way is all about and how valuable they are to our region. Charitable giving means different things to different people. Who among us wouldn’t give when we know the exact circumstances of the need? Who wouldn’t part with a few bucks a week if it meant a Life Flight Helicopter would come to the rescue of their family members or even themselves? Sadly some never recognize the impact a few dollars given each week can mean to someone else when they are in need. None of us ever know what’s around the corner, and there is nothing any of us wouldn’t do when we see the immediate need first-hand. Unfortunately, the need while present isn’t always right there on the surface visible to all. It’s buried in everyday life to those who suffered at the hand of misfortune. That’s where the Partner Agencies of the United Way step forward every day, dealing with both large and visible events as well as those private, behind the scenes family issues that affect so many across our region. Many of these volunteer agencies would cease to exist without voluntary contributions either through the United Way Campaign or outright donations by a generous public. Only through the United Way Campaign will your employer allow you to have a small payroll deduction taken each week that adds up to a significant dollar amount by year’s end. Only through the United Way Campaign can you join with other generous givers from around our three-county region to create a major giving source to support these hard-working non-profit agencies, so they can focus their energies on serving those in need and not on raising funds. On behalf of all the agencies and the many volunteers who generously donate their time, and most importantly, all those served by these wonderful agencies, thank you for your consideration in supporting this most worthwhile community campaign and for whatever you can contribute. ■

GUEST COLUMNIST

The Veterans Day we honored last month was a time to recognize and thank those who dedicate their lives to serving our great nation and protecting our unique freedoms. The North Country is home to more veterans than any other district in New York state; one of my main priorities in Congress is to work tirelessly to improve their lives and ensure they receive the best possible care, benefits, and recognition for their service. Fort Drum, home of the 10th Mountain Division, is an important part of our district as it remains critical to preserving a strong national security and contributes to the economic well-being of the community. Veteran constituents from all parts of the North Country have sacrificed so much for our freedoms, and it is my duty and privilege as their member of Congress to work as hard as I can to find ways to support them. I have been a proud and outspoken advocate for all of our veterans. It is essential that veterans have access to affordable, quality healthcare and benefits. So far this Congress, I had the opportunity to work to advance several

important bills that honor and protect veterans. I helped lead the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019, which restored benefits to veterans who served in the territorial seas of Vietnam and were exposed to Agent Orange, and was signed into law in June of this year. I was also proud to re-introduce the Vietnam Era Veterans Hepatitis C Testing Enhancement Act, which enhances the VA’s efforts to screen and diagnose thousands of veterans who were exposed to the virus during their service. I was given the opportunity to testify in front of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, where I told the story of North Country veteran Danny Kaifetz, who was exposed to the Hepatitis C while receiving necessary vaccinations. It was an honor to emphasize the need for comprehensive health screenings for our Vietnam-era service members and highlight the important community-based work taking place in our district. I have also been a strong supporter of solutions specifically designed for women veterans, the fastest growing veteran group. The VA has a long history of developing and providing state-ofthe-ar t prosthetic technolog y and rehabilitation services for veterans with amputations; however, this work was largely focused on developing prosthetics for men. I proudly co-sponsored a bill directing the Secretary of Veterans

Affairs to report to Congress on the availability of prosthetics for women veterans. I am also an original co-sponsor to the Servicewomen’s Health Transition Training Act of 2019, which encourages all branches of service to adopt a peer-led model to inform women military members preparing to separate from active duty service about the women’s health services available through the VA. Our brave and dedicated veterans and their families made significant sacrifices to protect our freedoms, both at home and abroad. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I am committed to securing a successful future for all our veterans and military families. My three district offices have been able to help recover $3.5 million in VA benefits to those who have served. I will continue to advocate for our veterans at the federal level and provide constant support for them and their families. Although we can never fully repay them for their selfless service, it is an honor and a privilege to work to ensure veterans’ post-service lives are as smooth and fulfilling as possible. ■ — This column has been abridged for print.

Stefanik’s support for American-made energy

To the Editor: Elise Stefanik’s steadfast support for American-made energy is a big step in the right direction. Why should we pay more for foreign oil? We have the resources right here in our country to keep costs low, and Elise is working to cut burdensome regulations to allow us to tap into them. Elise is also working for energy efficiency to protect out environment and our Elise knows that solar, wind, and hydroelectric power is growing and helping fill the gaps in small communities throughout our region. Her work to expand the renewable energy tax credit demonstrates that commitment to keep our costs low and move us into the 21st century. Elise is doing more than anyone else to provide better, cleaner and more affordable energy for New York families. — David Souliere IV, Peru ■

From BETTY LITTLE » pg. 1

“Senator Little is to be thanked and applauded for her dedication as a public servant to our district,” Town of Plattsburgh Supervisor Michael Cashman said. “Though we did not always agree, we had a friendship, I could be confident she would always take a call. Over the years I had the good fortune to collaborate with her on a number of items including the Whispering Maples Mausoleums, securing critical funding for water infrastructure in Town to the naming of the Gordie Little Memorial Bridge. My best wishes to her in her retirement.” U.S. Congresswoman Elise Stefanik released a statement as well: “Our community has watched in awe as Betty dedicated decades of her life to representing the hardworking families of Upstate New York. I am proud to call her a legislative partner and friend. The North Country is tremendously

grateful for her service and sacrifice.” “[Little] has fought tirelessly for her constituents and has worked diligently to make the North Country a better place,” New York State Assemblyman Billy Jones said. “I am proud to have worked with Betty on many legislative accomplishments over the past few years, and I am humbled to call her a friend. I wish her the best on this next chapter in her life.” In her years in public office, Little has done a lot to help businesses, including the North Country. “Betty Little has been a solid friend of job creators and taxpayers through the years, achieving a score of 100% last year from Unshackle Upstate,” President of the North Country Chamber of Commerce Garry Douglas said. “But most of all, she has been and continues to be an effective champion of North Country and Adirondack issues

and projects, earning respect and cooperation across party lines, including a valuable working partnership with Governor Cuomo. In Albany, she has been the lead champion on all things related to our cross border economic linkage with Canada, which is pivotal to the North Country economy, and she ably succeeded Ron Stafford as the Albany voice for the Adirondacks, from massive state investments in our region’s Olympic sports facilities to broadband expansion, turning around Trudeau Institute, and passing vital constitutional amendments supportive of sustainable communities in the Adirondacks.” Little said that, while retired, she will stay active in the community and help out wherever and however she can. Her term ends at the end of 2020, and during that time, Little said she’ll work hard to make it a great last session. ■

Graves auction has no winner Bank will own historic home for now STAFF WRITER

Domestic incident leaves Lake Placid man facing charges

A foreclosure auction failed to settle the fate of the historic Graves Mansion in Au Sable Forks. Photo by Tim Rowland In a town of mostly modest architecture, the Graves Mansion is a home of startling grandeur. It sits by itself on a large lot on a side street, and is a throwback to the Au Sable Forks glory days. It was built by Henry Graves, who was something of a character and was intent on marrying into the family of an industrial tycoon — to which daughter he was wed did not seem to be of particular importance to him. He accomplished his goal, marrying an heiress to the J. & J. Rogers Co. and working his way up the corporate ladder. His 31-room home was both his crowning glory and his downfall. It became the social hub of the mill town and hosted a visit from President Grover Cleveland. No expense was spared in its construction, and that was the problem. The expenses were funded, it later turned out, from Graves’ ill-gotten corporate gains. Although he lost his position with the company, Graves was allowed to stay in his grand home, where he lived until his death. ■

roads that were washed out have been reopened, although some will not have permanent repairs made until spring. The storm hit just after asphalt plants had shut down for the season. The storm dumped more than five inches of rain in the Central and South Adirondacks on ground that was already saturated from an earlier storm. A strong wind with gusts up to 60 mph on Nov. 1 knocked trees into power lines, in many cases preventing

The storm also did extensive damage to the Port Henry beach and the state’s new Frontier Town campground off of exit 29. Both received about $500,000 in damages, according to town estimates. The Department of Environmental Conservation said in an email correspondence that the campground will be repaired before the season starts. Most, but not all, of the country

Driving without headlights leads to local man’s arrest LAKE PLACID | A routine traffic stop led to a Lake Placid’s man arrest recently. Lake Placid Village Police said Jonathen M. Gilligan, 35, was driving without headlights when he was pulled over Nov. 16 and allegedly found to be driving under the influence. Gilligan was issued an appearance ticket for misdemeanor drivingwhile-intoxicated and driving without headlights. ■

By Tim Rowland ELIZABETHTOWN | The historic Graves Mansion in Au Sable Forks will revert to bank ownership, after the palatial estate failed to attract any other bids at a foreclosure auction last week. A representative for Specialized Loan Servicing out of Rochester opened the bidding at $74,700, which ironically was $300 less than the mansion cost to build in the 1880s. Except that in 1880, $75,000 would be worth $2 million in today’s dollars. Two other parties attended the auction at the Essex County Courthouse, but did not bid. From here, attorney Judith Pareira said the bank is likely to contact the two parties to try to work out a deal. If no agreement is reached, the mansion will probably go on the open market. Either way, she said it’s likely the property will sell for less than the bank bid. The sale price will be miniscule to the amount it will cost to fix up the mansion, which from the outside shows visible signs of deterioration. Potential bidders were not allowed to tour the interior, but town officials believe it’s in relatively good shape, although some of its more valuable appointments have been removed and sold. Joseph Tompkins of Crown Point, who said he was looking at the property as a potential bed and breakfast, said he still might make an offer if he’s contacted by the loan company. The other potential bidder, John Johanson of Troy, N.Y., could not be reached. The Town of Jay has also expressed interest in the property if grant money could be found for its restoration.

highway trucks from getting to the scene of washed-out roads. One bright spot for Essex County was that repairs made following the remnants of Hurricane Irene made it through the Halloween flood. “It didn’t appear to be anywhere near as big as Irene, but the Ausable Valley and Keene held up fairly well,” said Public Works Superintendent Jim Dougan. “Some of the infrastructure was rebuilt a little differently” after Irene. ■

LAKE PLACID | An order of protection has been issued following a recent physical confrontation that happened in front of three small children. Lake Placid Village Police say the incident happened Nov. 20 when Mario L. Gozalez, 25, got “physical” with someone in front of the nearby children. Gozalez is now facing charges of second-degree harassment and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child. He will appear in court next month to face the allegations. ■

Police believe local man was driving drunk without a license LAKE PLACID | A Saranac Lake man is facing charges after he allegedly drove while under the influence and with a suspended license. Lake Placid Village Police stopped Derek C. McCarthy Nov. 17 for allegedly having no tail lights when he was reportedly found to be driving without a license and under the influence of alcohol. McCarthy, 40, will appear in court this month to face charges of misdemeanor DWI, aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle and driving without taillights. ■

Local cocaine sales land South Glens Falls man in federal prison LAKE PLACID | A South Glens Falls man is heading to federal prison for his involvement in bringing large quantities of cocaine to the region. Carlo Varnado, 41, will now remain behind bars for 60 months for his role in bringing cocaine to the Lake Placid area. Varnado was arrested after Drug Enforcement Administration authorities intercepted a drug-smuggling operation en route to Lake Placid from his apartment. After seizing about 8 ounces of cocaine in that bust, authorities searched Varnado’s home and uncovered an assortment of drug paraphernalia, including a scale, vacuum sealer, a drug-cutting agent and $1,000 cash. Authorities believe Varnado helped distribute more than 500 grams of cocaine locally between January 2013 and October 2017. Varnado was also sentenced to four years of supervised release. The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Douglas Collyer. ■

Man Man: huge personality in a tiny package! By Bryeanna Villani COLUMNIST

Meet Man Man, our senior dog in residence. For being an older chihuahua, this little man delights our staff daily with his playful antics and spunky personality. He greatly enjoys his short but frequent jaunts outside and loves to parade around in his little jackets. He is a very social little guy who also loves to take frequent naps in the sun

snuggled up on a plush bed. Man Man is mostly tolerant of other dogs, though he does have some jealous issues. We do know that he prefers not to be around younger dogs that jump on him and are overly energetic. Man Man has diabetes, which isn’t a big deal but does require a little extra work to get his sugar levels regulated. Potential adopters need to be prepared to have a vet consult to learn how to give him insulin shots and will need additional vet appointments early on in order to get and keep his diabetes regulated. The insulin isn’t expensive when purchased through Walmart’s

pharmacy and he’s not on a special diet. Most importantly, this awesome little dude still has years of love left to give. Adopting a senior pet is an extremely rewarding experience itself. For many senior pets, you are giving them their last lease on life, a chance to leave behind the shelter life and spend their golden years with dignity in a loving home. For more information on Man Man, please call our shelter at 518-873-5000. ■

Fogarty runs in national meet

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

PORTLAND, ORE. | Saranac Lake junior Peter Fogarty fi nished his cross country season where very few in Section VII ever have - a national championship event. Fogarty, who led the Saranac Lake boys cross country team across the line in their NYSPHSAA Class C state championship and the federation meet, qualified for the Nike Cross Nationals at the home of the sports manufacturer Dec. 7. “I as super psyched I qualified for the nationals, but I really wanted the team to qualify for nationals so I was disappointed by that,” said Fogarty. Leading up to the race, Fogarty said they did a tapering because they had already done all the work for the season. “We just tried to sharpen the pencil and not do anything too tiring,” he said. “When we got there, they had good showcases with Olympic athletes, coaches and other athletes who would give you any advice when you asked them.” “Nike just rolls the red carpet out for these athletes, first class all of the way. The Nike campus is just phenomenal,” said coach Bill Peer. In the race, Fogarty placed 98th overall in a field of over 200 runners from across the country. “I was happy with the 98th place fi nish but I feel I could have run faster,” he said.

A SEASON OF PREPARATION

“He made some pretty significant changes and he was committed to the season back in July, when he was asking about how to change his diet,” said Peer of Fogarty’s training for the 2019 season. “He was very locked in and on our Q days he was completely focused on the

Peter Fogarty (pictured right, with teammate James Catania left) placed 98th at the Nike Cross Nationals Dec. 7 in Oregon, completing a season that saw the Saranac Lake junior earn CVAC all star, NYSPHSAA all state and Federation all state honors, while the Red Storm won their second straight Class C state title. Photo by Keith Lobdell times and numbers.” Peer also said shutting down Fogarty for a couple days due to a stomach virus may have been a blessing in disguise. “He ran the CVAC race in pain but came back in sectionals and at states, he really started to hit his arc and that illness and little bit of break may have actually helped him,” Peer said. “This season has really made us feel that, as a small school, we can go out there and perform and make a name for ourselves in the state and nationally,” said Fogarty. “Hard work and dedication really goes a long way and everyone on this team has worked as hard as they can to get where we are now.” Peer said Fogarty also showed the ability to step up to the level of competition. “Every field we put him in over the past month has been faster than the last field he ran in,” Peer

said. “He could continue to match their pace early in each race and hold on. In the last 1K of the race Saturday, he passed 12-14 kids. The New York regional rep told him you might have the race of your day and be 150th, so don’t worry, but Pete wanted nothing to do with 150th.” For Fogarty, he said the coaching staff has been a big part of his improvement and appearance in nationals. “They are the best staff we could have and I really appreciate them,” he said. “I feel sometimes I am ungrateful and I don’t say thank you to them enough and I need to more.” He added the Red Storm cross country team, which returns each of their top seven runners, has already been talking about the goals for 2020. “We all said that we want to come back stronger and qualify for nationals.” ■

PATRIOTS take round two with VIKINGS

5 PRESTON scores OT winner for SLP After tying Beekmantown 2-2 Dec. 3, SLP entered the extra five minutes with Plattsburgh High Dec. 5. In overtime, Rylee Preston took a pass from Darianna Patterson and found space in the middle, putting the puck into the net and earning her team a 2-1 win.
