‘The Little Mermaid’ makes a big splash at the CMPAC

By Heidi Sutton

This summer, families will have the opportunity to swim under the sea with Ariel and all her friends as The Noel S. Ruiz Theatre presents one of Disney’s most beloved classics, “The Little Mermaid.”

The full-length musical, which opened last Saturday night at the CM Performing Arts Center, brings the ocean to life on the Oakdale stage and follows Ariel’s adventure to find true love — and her voice. The show delights children and adults with a dazzling production, special effects and unforgettable music.

Kristen Digilio and Patrick Grossman (who also serves as set designer and choreographer) skillfully direct a talented cast of more than 20 in this fun adaptation of the Danish fairytale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen. Music is by Alan Menken with lyrics by Howard Ashman and Glenn Slater from the 1989 animated film.

M.E. Junge is perfectly cast as Ariel the mermaid princess and shines in her solos, “The World Above,” “If Only (Ariel’s Lament),” and “Part of Your World.”

Bobby Peterson is the romantic Prince Eric with standout vocals, and he is as handsome as can be. Kin-Zale Jackson perfectly plays Sebastian, Ariel’s lobster friend, Jamaican accent and all. His rendition of “Under the Sea” and “Kiss the Girl” brings down the house.

The wicked sea witch, Ursula, is played flawlessly by Erica Giglio-Pac, who commands the stage with her powerful voice and presence and is chilling during her performance of “Poor Unfortunate Souls.” Kyle Petty is hilarious

Clockwise from left, Kin-Zale Jackson (Sebastian) and M.e. Junge (Ariel); erica GiglioPac (ursula); and Kyle Petty (Chef Louis) in scenes from ‘the Little Mermaid’

as the French Chef Louis who chops and guts his way through “Les Poissons.”

His chase after Sebastian through the castle draws the most laughs. Petty is a delight to watch and is on stage for too short a time.

The supporting cast does a wonderful job, with special mention to Flounder (Victoria Tiernan), Scuttle (Ronnie

Green), the electric eels Flotsam (Matthew W. Surico) and Jetsam (Kevin Burns), King Triton (Gregg Sixt) and Grimsby (Andrew Murano).

Multiple sets are featured for both the above and underwater scenes with a ship, a castle, coral reef and lots of waves. Green’s costumes complement the set perfectly, with vibrant outfits,

wigs (more than 40 are used during production) and tons of glitter. From Ursula’s dress, with six additional legs, to King Triton’s crown and trident, everything pulls together nicely. Lighting was designed by Allison Weinberger, with spotlighting neatly handled by Jacqueline Hughes and Marielle Greguski and the choreography was exceptional, especially during “One Step Closer,” in which Eric and Ariel dance the waltz, and the tap dance number “Positoovity” with Scuttle and his seagull friends.

This is a wonderfully family-friendly show and although the scenes with Ursula could be a little frightening for a younger child, the clever script — chock full of sea-themed puns, like “as long as you live under my reef, you will live by my rules” and “a squid pro quo” — as well as the singing, dancing and special effects make it all worthwhile.

As a special nod to the children in the audience, the crew turns on bubble machines during “Under the Sea“ from the sides of the theater and on stage, releasing, according to the program, 15 gallons of bubble juice during each show. Although the evening show starts at an earlier time of 7:30 p.m., it runs for two and a half hours with one 15-minute intermission, perhaps too long for the younger audience.

The Noel S. Ruiz Theatre at the CM Performing Arts Center, 931 Montauk Highway, Oakdale, will present Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” through July 9.

Tickets range from $16 to $29, with VIP seats for $40.

The theater closes its 38th season with “West Side Story” from July 30 to Aug. 28. For more information, call 631-2182810 or visit www.cmpac.org.

THIS Year DO YOU Want To reverse Disease? Want To Lose Weight?

Feel Concerned You’re Locked Into Your Genes?

IF YOU THInk IT’S TOO LaTe TO CHanGe, reaD THe COmmenTS FrOm mY prOUD paTIenTS beLOW: The results I have achieved working with Dr. Dunaief have been quite remarkable. My primary goal was to reduce average blood pressure to acceptable levels.

This was accomplished in a little over 3 months.

Coincidentally I was able to reduce my overall cholesterol from 250 to 177 with a much improved LDL/HDL ratio in 4 months.

In addition I lost over 30 lbs and went from 24% body fat to 17.7%. I have some good days but mostly great days and I’m very happy with the results and look forward to even more improvement in the future.

—D.L., age 64

“My pain has subsided considerably. But, I must tell you that I don’t think I would have made it this far without your help. I was a mess when I first saw you, but you gave me a new sense of strength, new knowledge about nutrition and just a better regard for myself.” ~ Nurse Practitioner/ IBS and ulcerative colitis sufferer, age 62

“My cardiologist was so impressed with my results. By following Dr. Dunaief’s advice, I’ve been able to stop all three of my blood pressure medications. My heart palpitations, which were limiting my activities, have dramatically reduced in frequency, my energy levels have increased and I have lost 15 pounds in two months.” ~ Nurse, age 62 “I feel awesome after eating the diet, especially in the morning. I can’t believe how much has improved with such small changes. My cholesterol is normal, and my triglycerides dropped dramatically - almost 200 points! My blood pressure medication was stopped, yet my blood pressure is the best it has ever been.” ~ E.M., age 44

“…just wanted to share the…great news – I passed my fitness test and achieved my highest score ever! Thank you for all your support and help. You know how important this was for me.

I’m so pleased with the results.” ~ Military Surgeon, age 43

The Complexities of Diabetes

Depression and diabetes may have roots in inflammation When we refer to diabetes, we think of its complications. It may lead to microvascular maladies that affect vision (retinopathy), the kidneys (nephropathy) and the limbs (peripheral neuropathy), as well as macrovascular diseases such as heart disease and heart attacks. These are important reasons to prevent and treat it.

However, diabetes, in and of itself, is complicated. For example, in the ACCORD trial, we treated diabetes patients aggressively with medication trying to get their HbA1C David (three-month sugars) Dunaief, M.D. to below 6.0 percent rather than the standard 7.0 percent because we thought lower would mean fewer complications. According to the results, the patients who were treated more aggressively had a higher risk of mortality (1).

We know that in type 2 diabetes, the first line of therapy beyond lifestyle modifications is metformin. But when that is not enough, we also know that insulin is the most powerful treatment for decreasing glucose, or sugar, levels. But are insulin therapies the best drugs to use? Well, it turns out that they may have more risk of death compared to another drug class, sulfonylureas (e.g., Glucotrol, Amaryl). However, sulfonylureas, along with another drug class, thiazolidinediones (e.g., Avandia, Actos), may increase the risk of fractures. Sulfonylureas and insulin each have also been associated with increased risk of hypoglycemia (low sugar).

Diabetes is also associated with depression. The prevailing thought has been that having diabetes may contribute to depression. However, the association may be related to another common factor, inflammation.

If that isn’t enough to make your head spin, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that one-quarter of patients don’t even know they have diabetes (2). And for people over the age of 20, 33 percent have prediabetes, defined as sugar levels between normal and diabetes, with fasting sugar of 100-125 mg/dl or HbA1C of 5.7-6.4 percent. However, there is good news as it relates to lifestyle modification.

Let’s look at the evidence.

Medications: insulin versus sulfonylurea Two of the most common medications for the treatment of diabetes, referred to as second-line therapies since they would be used after metformin, are insulin and sulfonylureas. In an observational comparative effectiveness trial with patients already on metformin, results showed that when insulin was added compared to when sulfonylureas were added, there was a 44 percent increased risk of all-cause mortality and a 30 percent increased risk of cardiovascular outcomes including heart attack, stroke or all-cause death (3).

Does this mean we should not use insulin? No. There were limitations to this study.

Though it was more sophisticated with its comparative effectiveness design, it was still retrospective, which is not as strong as some other study types and may involve bias. The only conclusion that can be made is that insulin, when used with metformin, had an association with, but not a link to, significantly negative side effects versus sulfonylureas.

These patients were followed for a median of 14 months. We need prospective studies, especially randomized controlled studies.

However, the results are intriguing. It makes you think twice before reaching for insulin as a second-line therapy.

Medications: sulfonylureas and thiazolidinediones Does this mean that we know what to use for second-line therapy? Not necessarily. In a 2014 study, both sulfonylureas and thiazolidinediones showed a significantly increased risk of fractures. There was a 9 percent increase in fracture risk with sulfonylureas and a 40 percent increased risk with thiazolidinediones when each was compared to metformin (4). The good news is that other drug classes were tested and did not show statistically significant elevated risk occurrences. This was also a retrospective observational study so the same study limitations apply, most importantly, bias and confounding factors.

Depression

Heart attack Both men and women with diabetes are at increased risk of heart attacks. However, in a meta-analysis (group of 64 studies) involving over 800,000 patients, the results surprisingly show that women with diabetes are at a significantly greater risk of having a heart attack than men (6). In fact, these women were at a 44 percent increased risk of having fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events compared to their male counterparts. The reason for this, according to the authors, was that women may already be in poorer health before the onset of diabetes. What to do?

Exercise: games We tell patients to exercise, but many of us know just how difficult it can be to motivate ourselves to do this. Video games may provide the needed spark. In a randomized controlled trial, the gold standard of studies, those who used Wii Fit Plus saw improvements in their diabetes parameters compared to those who were given usual care (7). Results included significant decreases in their HbA1C, fasting blood sugars and weight.

These results were seen in just three months.

There were also improvements in daily physical activity, quality of life and depressive symptoms that are so commonly associated with diabetes. Family members were also likely to get involved in the Wii with the patient, creating a natural support network. Interestingly, after 12 weeks, those in the control group were then given the Wii Fit Plus and followed for an additional 12 weeks. They saw similar benefits. The authors called this “exergaming.”

Ultimately, we should do a really good job with lifestyle modifications and, if that is not enough, add metformin because we know that both have much greater upsides and very few downsides compared to many other diabetes treatments. Exercise can even be fun, as shown by the exergaming study. However, if insulin or other medications are needed, while there are treatment guidelines, it really comes down to a case-by-case decision to be made by the patient and doctor.

Studies have shown that exercising with video games like Wii Fit Plus can lower fasting blood sugar.

To complicate matters further, diabetes and depressive symptoms are associated with each other, but not in the way you might think. According to one study, these two maladies may not be a classic chickenand-egg argument but rather a common denominator; inflammation may be the culprit that is at least partially responsible for both diseases’ processes (5).

The researchers found that six biomarkers of inflammation were increased in patients with both diabetes and depressive symptoms. These inflammatory markers include C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor alpha, triglycerides, white blood cells, interleukin 1 (IL-1B and IL-1RA) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1. Ultimately, if they are both caused by inflammation to varying degrees, then theoretically if we reduced inflammation it may give us beneficial results for both diseases.

This is important, since those with both diseases may have a two times greater likelihood of death, according to the authors. They also note that lifestyle modifications, including diet and exercise, are the best way to reduce inflammation. The study involved 1,227 newly diagnosed diabetes patients.

There’s an old saying, “to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.” When the weather turned cold last autumn, I believed in tomorrow, that is, next spring, and believed that my plants going dormant would grow again as the weather warmed.

Well, going outside this spring, and looking at my plants with their new little green buds, I was particularly concerned that my beautiful crape myrtle showed no signs of life. As time went by, it became obvious that the plant didn’t survive. Although associated with the southern part of the country, the variety I planted was supposed to be cold hardy on Long Island, as it was rated for U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zone 6 and Long Island is zone 7. In addition, it had survived the previous two extremely cold winters — remember the polar vortex? So, why did it die?

The most likely answer is cold damage.

I had noticed last summer that the plant didn’t look as healthy as it had in previous years. When temperatures drop below 10 degrees for any length of time, crape myrtle tends to die back down to the ground.

By mid-May the plant should have begun sprouting, at least from the ground, but, it’s been a cool spring, so it’s possible that the recovery was just slow. As the warm weather really arrived, however, it still showed no signs of growth. That means that the roots died and the plant needed to be replaced.

To replace crape myrtle with more coldtolerant varieties, there are some which are cold tolerant to zone 5. Consider: — Pure white: ‘Natchez,’ which reaches 18 feet, or ‘Kiowa,’ which is considerably smaller at six to eight feet — Deep red: ‘Okmulgee’ at eight feet; ‘Cherokee’ also at eight feet; ‘Tonto’ at just six to eight feet — Lavender: ‘Zuni’ at 10 feet tall; ‘Blue Lavender’ at 16 feet; ‘Catawba,’ darkest violet purple; and ‘Apalachee, 20 feet, a pale lavender

— Watermelon or coral: ‘Tuskegee’ reaches 25 feet; ‘Miami’ also at 25 feet; ‘Comanche’ at 16 feet — Pink: ‘Choctaw at 20 feet; ‘Hopi’ at just 8 feet tall Note that the maximum heights indicated above refer to plants that have not died back to the ground over the winter. A crape myrtle that has the potential to reach 20 feet, will only do so if the top part of the tree doesn’t suffer from winter-kill.

Crape myrtle bloom in mid to late summer with a stunning array of flowers. Some varieties are bushier and some more treelike. Once established they can tolerate some drought, but prefer a warm, humid climate. You’ll get the most flowers if planted in full sun. They do well in most soil types but prefer slightly acidic soil. Prune your crape myrtle in spring, removing any dead branches. Also remove succors during the growing season if they develop on treelike plants. Some develop fungal diseases (powdery mildew or leaf spot). If yours develops any of these diseases, use an appropriate fungicide. The problem of root rot is usually not anything to be concerned about with our sandy soil, which easily drains.

Winter-kill affects many other plants, particularly Hydrangea macrophylla, which frequently die back to the ground in a very cold winter. The older varieties produce flowers on old wood; so if yours has died back to the ground, you’ll have lots of green leaves in summer but no flowers.

When replacing old H. macrophylla, look for reblooming hydrangeas like ‘Endless Summer,’ which blooms on both old and new wood.

In a future column, we’ll take a look at other reasons why plants die unexpectedly.

So, where am I off to now? A local nursery to replace my crape myrtle.

BNL’s Cialella a ‘consensus builder’ in environmental science

By Daniel Dunaief Researchers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have traveled the world, placed their scientific instruments aboard commercial ships, or gathered information from satellites, aircraft and ground-based facilities to study the atmosphere, the environment and the weather.

Chemist Arthur Sedlacek, whose work was featured last week in the Times Beacon Record, has journeyed in a plane above wildfires in the western United States to collect information about aerosolized particles, while atmospheric scientist Ernie Lewis has gathered data from commercial ships that trek back and forth from Los Angeles to Hawaii to determine how clouds change along the route through the Pacific.

Assistant ecologist Shawn Serbin, meanwhile, has studied the spectroscopic properties of forests to determine how an area responds to different temperature, precipitation and atmospheric conditions.

These are all part of the mission of the Environmental and Climate Sciences Department at BNL, explained Alice Cialella, the interim chair of the department and also the manager of the DOE ARM Climate Research Facility External Data Center.

The Environmental and Climate Sciences Department, which includes over 50 scientific, professional and technical staff, is also engaging in several new efforts, including a collaboration with Stony Brook University. Using several mobile radar systems donated by companies and the military, these two local institutions will gather a wealth of data about the local and regional climate and environment.

“The unprecedented array of radars will help us better understand pre-storm conditions before high impact weather events, provide detailed wind data for modeling energy and pollution flow through cities and better process level understanding of precipitation and cloud formation,” Cialella explained in an email.

To be sure, the initiative is so new that the weather satellites, which can be loaded on a truck and moved to different parts of a city, haven’t arrived yet. “There are many more details to work out,” she said.

This is just one of several initiatives that are all a part of the DOE-funded facility’s efforts to gain a better understanding of the local and global environment and how it might be changing over time.

Spotlighting discoveries at (1) Cold Spring Harbor Lab (2) Stony Brook University (3) Brookhaven National Lab Recently, Cialella’s department participated in a study to look at how air particles circulate through New York City subway stations for the Department of Homeland Security. Separately, atmospheric scientist Andrew Vogelmann is collaborating with a multi-institution study to connect ARM Climate Research Facility’s observations to climate modeling efforts.

Cialella, who has served as the interim chair of the department for six months, said this effort will “create more synergy between weather observational data sets and climate modelers.”

Martin Schoonen, the associate laboratory director for the Environment, Biology, Nuclear Science and Nonproliferation Directorate at BNL, said he chose her as interim chair because “she has proven to be a very effective group leader, growing her group significantly over the last few years and taking on a leadership role within the DOE-Atmospheric Radiation Measurement and Climate Research Facility.”

Schoonen called her a “consensus builder” who “listens well to people and takes time to get to know all perspectives.” Cialella is “absolutely” in contention for the full-time role in the Environmental and Climate Sciences Department, Schoonen said.

Cialella said she sees opportunities to encourage scientific partnerships. “I look for a high level understanding of the science and try to identify common themes that aren’t being fully utilized or appreciated,” she said. The department is in two buildings and she tries to ensure that she assists with any potential collaborations among researchers in the same department but at different locations.

Serbin said he appreciates how Cialella has encouraged collaborations among researchers who study different elements of the environment.

Hired at first for her software engineering skills and her master’s degree in physical geography, one of her initial jobs was to create maps for the ARM sites using Geographic Information

alice Cialella in her office at Brookhaven national laboratory Systems software.

In her work as the manager of the data center, which represents about half her time, Cialella and Laurie Gregory supervise a team of eight. They identify new sources of data that are external to the ARM Climate Research Facility and that augment the ARM facility, such as weather forecast model data. The group has been creating ARM databases and Web data applications for ARM for over 20 years.

While she hasn’t worked on a computer program in a number of years, Cialella’s work allows her to engage in “more broadthinking and strategic planning.”

Over time, the focus of the ARM Climate Research Facility has shifted from gathering information through observations to using that information to inform global climate models. “In the last couple of years, the move has been to provide the data for the modeling component of the program much more directly,” she said.

A resident of Poquott, Cialella lives with her husband John Robinson, who is a professor in integrative neuroscience in

the Department of Psychology at Stony Brook. Using mouse models, Robinson hopes to understand the function and dysfunction of the human central nervous system.

The couple has a daughter Zoe, who is a senior at Ward Melville High School and is planning to attend the University of Vermont in the fall.

Cialella said she enjoys anything that gets her moving. She runs, bikes, swims and does triathlons in the summer. Exercise is a great “stress reliever,” she said. She also enjoys being a part of a book group. She recently read “Tinkers” by Paul Harding.

Cialella grew up in Maryland, the fourth of five children. Her late father, Carmen, was a physicist at Aberdeen Proving Grounds.

As for her work, Cialella said she continues to plan for the future. “You always want to be thinking at least three to five years out and what the next area of research might be,” she said. “The next area may well be high-resolution atmospheric modeling for urban and regional studies.”

COVER STORY

T

New this year at Green Fest sored by our continual supporter Harvest Power Solar.

Look for “Queen Smoothie Mobile” this year, a whimsical “sculptured” truck made up of vegetable and fruit sculptures that celebrate healthy eating with the serving of frozen smoothies made from kale and fresh fruit. Keeping with healthy eating and making good food choices, Whole Foods and TJ’s Salty Spuds will be providing a mini-farmers market with organic produce samples.

There will be children activities, our “solar cottage” and new environmentally friendly vendors including handcrafted toys, gentle used clothes and bee natural body care products. So come on down and make it a day and enjoy the Harborfront Park on Port Jefferson’s picturesque inner harbor.

From left, Steven archdeacon will play music at the Harborfront Park all day; the Queen Smoothie mobile will serve frozen smoothies; and Nature Nick will present animal shows at the 2016 Green Fest.

Scenes from Green Fest in previous years

Environmental Services 88 Old Dock Road Yaphank, New York 11980 631.969.6300 www.maggioenvironmental.com

Save the date: Go Green set for November 5

by Naomi Solo On Saturday, Nov. 5, the 9th Annual Go Green Information Fair will be held in Port Jefferson. However, there is a change in venue this year.

The event will be held in the cafeteria of the Earl L. Vandermeulen High School at 350 Old Post Road from noon to 3 p.m.

This exciting collaboration began a decade ago when Ann Kaplan and John Lutterbie from the SBU Humanities Institute formed a university-community group in order to inspire positive thinking about our environment. I was part of this original committee. When the group wanted to choose a target area to begin its work, the Village of Port Jefferson was selected.

With that began a most positive relationship. The Village government joined forces with the three Port Jefferson public schools and, supported also by the Humanities Institute, we were on our way. Education about recycling paper and

bottles was our first project, and we were very proud of the progress made in that area.

In the following years we featured energy conservation, movement away from lawn pesticides, water quality, cleaning up the harbor, etc. With positive support from our school superintendent, Ken Bossert, and the amazing contributions of teachers Kari Costanza, Peter Burawa, Jon Maletta and Dawn DiLeonardis-Moody, music teacher Jessica Pastor, art teacher Lynn Edsall and parent-teacher volunteers like Jill Russell, we have made significant strides in many areas of environmental improvement.

The move to the high school this year is significant in that we are once again featuring the fascinating and creative projects the three schools are making. There will be a musical presentation under the leadership of Jessica Pastor. As in past years, art teacher Lynn Edsall will choose a related environmental theme, and her students will

conduct research on it. They will then create and display their amazing and imaginative posters on that theme.

Music, art, creative students and valuable information all highlight a wonderful cooperative endeavor.

Then add to the fun by stopping by the “Green Elephant” table where, for no money, you can be part of the recycle team by taking home whatever item(s) you wish.

You may also contribute items (while cleaning your closets and cabinets) by calling 631-642-3048 after Oct. 15 (please no clothes, linen, electronics or books).

It is heartwarming to see Village government, the University, our local schools and many of our own community residents join together for a great day. For further information, call 631-473-3549.

he Green Fest is always evolving. A new addition this year for children of all ages is “Nature Nick’s Animal Adventures.” There will be three animal shows that will feature six to 10 animals, including a kangaroo and monkey! In addition to the shows there will be an innovative display with Nature Nick’s exotic animals consisting of two tents that are completely decorated with a tropical/safari theme.

For our music lovers we will showcase Steven Archdeacon, who will be performing throughout the day on the great lawn. His music is a mix between Dave Matthews meets Clapton and Hendrix.

So bring a blanket and enjoy his musical performances.

Maintaining the tradition of a no carbon footprint, our entertainment will be powered by solar energy panels spon-

Reeling in summer fun at Caleb Smith Junior angler tournament this weekend

By Rita J. Egan Once the warm weather arrives, it can be a challenge when it comes to keeping children busy. Teaching them how to fish is a fun way to get them outside and have them connect with nature. Fortunately, for Long Islanders, in addition to water surrounding the region, the area is home to the Nissequogue River as well as other fish-filled waterways.

During fishing season, budding anglers can bring their poles and barbless hooks to the north side of Caleb Smith State Park Preserve in Smithtown and fish in the park’s Willow Pond, which empties into the Nissequogue.

The preserve’s environmental educator, Linda Kasten, said the park has offered children’s fishing since it opened in 1974, and little anglers can take home a fish depending on its size. A sign by Willow Pond lists the requirements that fish must be nine inches or larger, except in the case of a trout or largemouth bass, which must be more than 12 inches. Anglers who catch smaller fish are required to release them back into the river.

’[Fishing] gets [kids] away from computer-driven things.

They breathe in the fresh air, see some animals, plants, birds and do some exploring.’

— Paul Pace Kasten said families who come to the preserve for a day of fishing are asked to sign in at the Caleb Smith House on the property and then return at the end of the session to let the staff know what fish they caught and how big.

When a child catches a fish, the educator said, “They think it’s the coolest thing.”

The park employee said she has seen children catch pumpkinseed fish, bluegills, largemouth bass and occasionally rainbow trout. Most of the fish that the junior anglers catch at the park are the panfish variety, which are small enough to cook in a pan yet still large enough to meet the requirements of fishers not having to release them back in the water.

Photo from Paul Pace

From left, Sofia and angelina Pace of Smithtown with a bluegill they caught last summer at Willow Pond.

Depending on the age of the child, fishing could keep them busy for a couple of hours or more, according to Kasten. “When they come with friends, they’ll sit out there for hours,” she said.

Last year the educator said there was a group of five young teenagers who would come to the park practically every weekend, and they always caught fish. “They were so

excited just to be with each other, let alone fishing and catching stuff,” Kasten said.

Smithtown resident Paul Pace has been bringing his two daughters, Sofia (7) and Angelina (3), to fish at the park for the last two years. It was during a visit to the preserve, which features walking trails and a nature museum in the Caleb Smith House, that the father, a fisherman himself, saw

the sign and thought it would be a great idea to teach his girls the sport.

Pace said his daughters will spend a good two hours fishing. He said he loves that, “it gets them away from computerdriven things. It’s real life. They breathe in the fresh air, see some animals, plants, birds, and do some exploring.”

However, he said they don’t find a lot of time to explore the preserve because they are very lucky fishing there. “We catch a lot of fish so there’s always some action,” the father said.

Pace said one day last year, his oldest caught an 18-inch bass, and they were able to keep it and cook it. He said his daughters are developing a love for the sport and can’t wait until they are older and can fish from a boat. “They get really super excited. They love it; they’re reeling them in. Especially that big one — they both freaked out!” he said.

Besides fishing being a fun family activity, Pace also believes that it can teach children some important life lessons. “To cast the line takes a lot of practice and patience and determination. Sofia, she was casting last year … really good. There’s always something to accomplish,” Pace said.

Each year before the season begins, the preserve offers fishing clinics so young anglers can learn some useful tips. The Friends of Caleb Smith Preserve also hosts an annual Junior Angler Catch and Release Tournament at the park. For $15 per participant, children 12 years and under can compete for prizes for the most fish caught and largest fish reeled in. This year the event takes place this Saturday, June 11, when children ages 5 to 8 will compete in the morning and kids ages 9 to 12 will cast their poles in the afternoon.

Fishing season at Caleb Smith State Preserve Park, 581 W. Jericho Turnpike, Smithtown, runs from April 1 to Oct. 31. There is no charge for fishing; however, a parking fee of $8 is in effect, except for Empire Passport holders. Children do not need a fishing license but are required to bring their own equipment. Fishing at Willow Pond is for anglers 15 years and younger, and children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

Above, Courtney Murphy broke the Division I scoring record for goals, with 100, and added 16 assists this season. Right, Alyssa Fleming, along with Murphy, was named a first-team selection.

Stony Brook women’s lacrosse junior Courtney Murphy was named Eastern College Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year and one of four Seawolves selected to end-of-year All-Star teams.

Murphy scored a Division I-record 100 goals and added 16 assists for a Stony Brook squad that finished the year No. 8 or better in all major polls. The junior attacker broke the 32-year-old Division I scoring record in 2016 and scored 24 more goals than any other Division I player. Murphy broke the Seawolves’ single-season (90) and career (158) scoring records in 2016.

Murphy was named a first-team selection along with senior defender Alyssa Fleming. Fleming tallied 40 caused turnovers in 2016 – the second-most in a single season in program history – and finished her Stony Brook career with 102, also good for second in the program record book. Fleming was signed by the Baltimore Ride of the United Women’s Lacrosse League in May. Sophomore attacker Kylie Ohlmiller and junior midfielder Dorrien Van Dyke were second-team All-Star honorees. Ohlmiller ranked fourth in the nation with 47 assists and fifth with 91 points, joining UMass’ Erika Eipp as the only players in the top five in both categories. Van Dyke was tied for 16th in the nation with 53 goals and 24th

with 71 points, and joined Murphy as one of only three sets of teammates nationally to both score 50 or more goals.

The Seawolves won their fourth-straight America East title in 2016 and advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament for the fourth-consecutive year.

Men’s basketball coach Jeff Boals adds Geno Ford to staff Former Bradley and Kent State University coach Geno Ford has joined the Stony Brook men’s basketball coaching staff, head coach Jeff Boals announced.

“I’m very excited to add Geno to our Seawolves’ basketball family,” Boals said.

“His experiences and knowledge will be beneficial in order for our program to continue its success.”

Ford has spent 22 years in college basketball, most recently serving as an analyst on the ESPN family of networks.

“I’m really excited to be a part of Coach Boals’ program at Stony Brook,” Ford said.

“We’ve had a relationship that’s spanned more than 20 years and that’s a rare thing in college coaching.”

In his second season at Bradley, Ford guided the Braves to the seventh-best win improvement in the country, going 7-25 in 2011-12 to 18-17 the following season.

Ford coached Walt Lemon Jr., who became just the second player in Missouri Valley Conference history to record 500 points, 100 rebounds, 100 assists and 70 steals in a season.

The team posted seven straight semesters of a 3.0 GPA, including a program-best

3.16. Prior to Ford’s arrival, the men’s basketball program had never had a cumulative GPA of 3.0.

Ford produced a 68-37 record in his three seasons as head coach at Kent State (2008-11), including a 35-13 mark in the Mid-American Conference. In addition to his two Mid-American Conference Coachof-the-Year awards, Ford was the 2009 NABC District 14 Coach of the Year.

He became the first MAC coach in 48

seasons to win back-to-back regular-season titles in 2009-10 and 2010-11.

As an assistant coach at Kent State for four seasons (2002-05; 2007-08), the Golden Flashes went 92-38 (.708), earning four postseason bids, including an NCAA berth in 2008.

Ford’s first head-coaching position came at Shawnee State University, where he led the Bears to a school-record 22 wins in 2001-02 and a 10-win improvement from the previous season.

Ford also spent two seasons as the head coach at Muskingum University (2005-07), which posted a 17-9 record, the school’s best in the last 25 years, in 2005-06.

Ford was a four-year letterwinner at Ohio University, where he was a teammate of Boals for two seasons. The Cambridge, Ohio product scored 1,752 points at Ohio, which ranks sixth in school history. He was first team All-MAC and academic All-Conference selection as a senior.

A high school standout, Ford was named Ohio Mr. Basketball by the Associated Press in 1993. He graduated as the third all-time leading scorer in Ohio history and ranks ahead of LeBron James.
