Recent ly-appoi nted Northport-East Northport Superintendent Rob Banzer got a grand welcome to the district on Monday, as school officials showered the new leader with an evening full of music, speeches, cake and cheer. Banzer walked into a decked-out cafeteria at the William Brosnan administration building on Laurel Avenue. The room was lined with posters created by students, which welcomed Banzer with phrases like, “Welcome to Northport, Come Visit Norwood” from Norwood Avenue Elementary School; “We’re so happy to meet you!” from students at the Dickinson Avenue Elementary School; and “Bellerose Wel-

A new iteration of a proposal to build a senior assisted living facility near a wooded Huntington neighborhood will be the subject of a town board public hearing next month. The board scheduled the hearing on Tuesday to consider changing the zone on the six-acre property to allow the Massachusettsbased Benchmark Senior Living to proceed with the project, which would be located on the corner of East Main Street and Washington Drive. Benchmark is looking to rezone the property from C-3 Special Business and R-10 Residential to R-HS Residential Health Services District to make way for the facility.

The project has gone through several versions. The proposed number of units has been brought down from 87 to 69 units. Also, the building will be two stories instead of three, and the proposed on-site sewage treatment plant has been moved to the northwest corner of the lot, adjacent to commercial property. A 40-foot wide natural buffer along Old Northport Road will be built, and the gross floor area would be slightly reduced from 70,567 square feet to 66,995. Some residents who live near the property have opposed the plan, citing size, traffic and noise concerns. A group of residents, who call themselves United Homeowners of Huntington, has BENCHMARK continued on page A6

Report: CSH Lab matters to LI’s economy and beyond By Daniel Dunaeif

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, a research center that has produced eight Nobel Prize winners and is stocked with first-class scientists generating reams of data every year, shared some numbers earlier this week on its economic impact on Long Island. The facility brought in about $140 million in revenue in 2013 to Long Island from federal grants, private philanthropy, numerous scientific educational programs and the commercialization of technology its scientists have developed, according to a report, “Shaping Long Island’s Bioeconomy: The Economic Impact of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory,” compiled by Appleseed, a private consulting firm. At the same time the lab tackles diseases like cancer, autism and Parkinson’s, and employs 1,106 people with 90 percent working full time and 987 living on Long Island. “We are recognized as being one of the top research institutions throughout the world,” Bruce Stillman, the president and CEO of CSHL said in an interview. The economic impact may help Long Islanders become “aware that such a prestigious institution exists in their backyard.” Stillman highlighted programs that benefit the community, including public lectures, concerts and the school of education, which includes the DNA Learn-

ing Center, a tool to build a greater understanding of genetics. The financial benefit to the economy extends well beyond Long Island, too. “The research we do has an enormous impact on the development by others of therapeutics and plant science in agriculture,” Stillman said. Indeed, Pfizer recently received U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for a breast cancer drug called Ibrance that is expected to produce $5 billion in annual sales by 2020. The research that helped lead to that drug was conducted at CSHL in 1994. In its 125-year history, this is the first time the laboratory has provided a breakdown of its financial benefit. The impetus for this report occurred a few years ago, when Stillman met with Stony Brook University President Dr. Samuel Stanley Jr. and Sam Aronson, who was then the CEO of Brookhaven National Laboratory. “We were talking about promoting further interactions and seeking state support,” Stillman said. This year, CSHL will bring online a preclinical experimental therapeutics facility that will build out the nonprofit group’s research capabilities. At the same time, CSHL is awaiting word on a $25 million grant it is seeking

from New York State to support a proposed Center for Therapeutics Research. The center would cost about $75 million in total, with CSHL raising money through philanthropic donations, partnerships with industry and federal aid. The center would “fit in well with our affiliation with North Shore-LIJ [Health System],” Stillman said. CSHL plans to create the center in the Demerec Laboratory, which was completed in 1953 and needs an upgrade. Named after Milislav Demerec, a previous director at CSHL who mass-produced penicillin that was shipped overseas to American troops

during World War II, the building has been home to four Nobel Prize-winning scientists: Barbara McClintock, Alfred Hershey, Rich Roberts and Carol Greider. The renovated lab would house a broad range of research strengths, with candidates including a number of cancer drugs that are in the early stages of clinical trials; a therapeutic effort for spinal muscular atrophy, which is the leading genetic cause of death among infants; diabetes; and obesity. The revenue from CSHL, as well as that from BNL, SBU and North Shore-LIJ, Stillman said, all have a “huge economic benefit to the Long Island community.”

Kidney Stones: Get Relief from the Pain and Discomfort

Fifteen percent of Americans will experience the pain of kidney stones at some point in their lives, but there are treatments available that can reduce or eliminate suffering. Jennifer Hill, MD, a urologist at the Arthur Smith Institute for Urology, part of North Shore-LIJ Health System, discusses what you need to know about this condition. Kidney stone disease is not only one of the most common afflictions of modern times, but kidney stones also tend to recur, meaning they develop again after you’ve been treated. If you have formed stones before, a recurrent bout of stone pain is usually easily recognized. The symptoms of kidney stone pain, or renal colic, are: • Severe back pain that is sudden • Nausea and vomiting • The inability to get into a comfortable position • Abdominal pain that wraps around the flank (the side of your body between the ribs and the hip) to the front of the abdomen • Urinary frequency and urgency without much urine passage • Labial, vaginal, penile or testicular pain that is not made worse by touching the area Passing a kidney stone can be painful and time-consuming, but treatment options are available, including: • Medical expulsive therapy — medicine, usually given by an ER physician or urologist, to allow quicker passage of stones • Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, or ESWL — a non-invasive treatment for stones using shock waves • Ureteroscopy and laser lithotripsy — a small scope is inserted into the bladder and passed into the ureter to locate and remove stones • Percutaneous nephrolithotomy, or PCNL — endoscopic removal of large stones through a small incision in the back

There are several types of stones, and each has a different cause and treatment. • Calcium oxalate — the most common kind of kidney stone • Uric acid — stones related to low urine output and a diet high in red meat and other kinds of animal protein • Struvite — stones usually associated with urinary tract infection • Cysteine stones — very hard stones, difficult to treat and control • Very rare stones — including xanthine, matrix, drug-induced stones, silica and triamterene When dealing with recurrent kidney stones, prevention is key. If you’ve suffered from stones in the past, the following can help prevent their recurrence: • Drink three liters of water a day in order to keep your urine diluted • Follow a low-sodium diet • Increase citrus foods in your diet — citrus helps prevent stones from forming There are many other ways to prevent stone formation. It is important to partner with a urologist to help you in your battle with kidney stones.

Bad reality checks A 19-year-old man from Huntington was arrested in Huntington on May 2 and charged with two counts of petit larceny. Police said that, in separate incidents, he took the checking account numbers of two individuals and cashed checks. The incidents occurred on April 3 and April 13. Crash ‘n go Police said a 46-year-old Hauppauge male was arrested on April 28 in Huntington at the 2nd Precinct and charged with leaving the scene of a car accident. Police said the man was driving a 2008 Toyota on Broadhollow Road in Melville on April 10 at 2 p.m. and he collided with a 2000 Jeep, causing damage to the rear end of the vehicle. He failed to stop and speak with the driver. Burglarized bling A 40-year-old man from Huntington Station was arrested in Huntington on April 27 at the 2nd Precinct and charged with fourth-degree grand larceny of property valued at more than $1,000. Police said that sometime between 1 a.m. and 11 p.m. on April 26, the man removed an iPad, gold and a watch.

formed to oppose the plan. Jane Carter, a resident who belongs to the group, asked the town board at the meeting on Tuesday to keep the zoning on the property in tact. She said the project “hasn’t changed enough.” William Bonesso, a Uniondale attorney representing Benchmark for the project, also attended the Tuesday meeting. In an interview last year, he spoke of a need for the project.

Spillane, a Syosset resident, was pronounced dead at the scene. He may have experienced a medical event before the Nissan left the road, police said. No one in the home was injured, according to police, and the house had minor damage. Police impounded the Pathfinder for a safety check and detectives from the SCPD’s 2nd Squad are investigating the incident. Anyone with information is asked to call the detectives at 631-854-8252.

He said in an interview with reporters after the meeting that the public hearing was a chance to evaluate whether the public’s concerns about the project are addressed “It’s been kicking around,” he said. “They came up with what they believed was a different plan so let’s put it before public hearing, decide whether it should go forward.”

New program aims to boost solar in Huntington By Rohma aBBas

Huntington Town residents looking to go solar can let the sunshine in at a discount, thanks to a new group-purchasing program spearheaded by town and City University of New York officials. On Monday afternoon, town hall officials unveiled Solarize Huntington, a program that attempts to incentivize residents to go solar by offering discounts of up to 25 percent on installation costs through installer Direct Energy Solar. The level of discount would increase as the number of participants in the Solarize Huntington program grows, according to the town and Sustainable CUNY of the City University of New York. Solarize Huntington will also include educational workshops about solar energy and guidance on the process of going solar. The program, which officially launched on May 4, runs through Sept. 10. Homeowners who participate could purchase, finance or lease solar systems from Direct Energy Solar, the installer selected by CUNY through a competitive bidding process, town spokesman A.J. Carter said. Direct Energy Solar is also offering an additional $500 discount to the first 20 homeowners who sign contracts. The average solar installation, with state and federal incentives included, could cost a Huntington homeowner around $16,000

for a 7-kilowatt system, according to Justin Strachan, a New York State solar ombudsman with Sustainable CUNY. Solarize Huntington could reduce that cost to somewhere around $12,000, he said. Solar is already popular in Huntington Town, CUNY and town officials noted on Monday. Officials from Sustainable CUNY, Supervisor Frank Petrone (D), Councilwoman Susan Berland (D) and Councilman Mark Cuthbertson (D) attended a press conference launching the program on Monday at which Petrone said that last year the town received 500 applications for solar installation permits. “So that tells you the popularity and it tells you people are yearning for a program, for a supervised program, and something that’s going to be meaningful and cost-effective,” Petrone said. Laurie Reilly, who directs communications for Sustainable CUNY, said the Solarize Huntington program is just one program among other solar initiatives funded by a more than $1 million U.S. Department of Energy grant. She also said Huntington was selected for the program because, at the time of the grant application, the town committed to work with Sustainable CUNY to make solar more accessible to residents. “Huntington was the first one to step up and the first one to say, ‘We would like to do this.’”

huntington residents could find it easier to afford solar panels on their homes, thanks to new initiative backed by town and City University of New york officials.

This isn’t the only thing Huntington Town has done in recent years to encourage and increase the use of solar power to cut down on the consumption of fossil fuels. The town recently approved a fasttrack process for approval of solar installation permits and used a federal grant several years ago to install solar panels at town hall, the town said in a statement. The program launch is thanks to the partnership of Sustainable CUNY, the New York Solar Smart Program, the town

and the town’s Advisory Committee on Energy Efficiency, Renewables, and Sustainability, according to a town statement. Residents interested in signing up for the program can do it online at solarizehuntington.com or at one of the Solarize 101 informational workshops the town is sponsoring to help residents learn of the program’s benefits. The first workshop will be held on Monday, May 11, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at town hall.

New York City has already enacted a $4.50 property tax abatement for each square foot of many green roof projects, and the city of Syracuse has allocated nearly $4 million toward 37 different green roof projects to date.

OPINION

In education reform, slow and steady wins race Your turn

BY Jim PolanskY

As the dust attempts to settle following two weeks of state assessment administration, preceded by months of politically charged debate and activism, I’ll, once again, express my plea that the state powers-that-be reflect on the situation and its root causes and attempt to redirect their decision-making toward what is in the best interests of the children of New York. I can attest to the fact that the administrators, teachers and staff members in Huntington clearly understand their responsibilities. They continue to develop and refine their crafts but have never lost sight of the individual differences demonstrated by the students in their classrooms or buildings. They comprehend the concept of college and career readiness and recognize their roles within a systemic approach to a child’s education. They have instructionally prepared their students in alignment with the new standards, while continually striving to instill

BANZER Continued from page A1

spoke before formally introducing Banzer. Binger thanked the district’s superintendent search committee and honored their work by handing one of its members, James Ruck, retired Sachem school district superintendent, a certificate of appreciation. Rapiejko, who introduced Banzer, a Northport High School graduate, spoke about consensus. He noted that while the school board and district residents may not see eye to eye on everything, Banzer’s appointment came with a “degree of unanimity.” He described Banzer as “someone who will exercise firm, focused and compassionate leadership.” When Banzer took the microphone, he spoke about the importance of seeing students not as where they are, but what they could be and gave a shout-out to staff at Northport-East Northport who believed in him — people he said inspired him to become who he is today. “In my role, my hope here is that every single child in the Northport-East Northport school district can tell that story that they are touched and they can be inspired by the staff — and it doesn’t

‘Education in New York is broken as a result of misguided and rushed initiatives that have left districts to their own devices to address state policy issues and misinformation spread throughout their communities.’ in students a love of learning. They have done everything possible to put aside their anxieties in the face of statewide educational unrest, rapidly moving evaluation targets and mandates that seemingly appear out of nowhere. I imagine all of this is characteristic of the majority of schools and districts throughout the state. I’d like to think that some learning has been accomplished or perspective gained from recent events. For example, broad-scale changes are likely to meet with failure if necessary preparations are not made or if measures are not put into place to facilitate those changes. (The cliché applies — one cannot build a plane while it is being flown.) No amount of federal monies is worth the potential outcomes of a rushed and, therefore, flawed change process. I’ll add that the importance of accountability and evaluation should not be minimized. But an unproven system based on unproven measures will surely contribute to inaccurate outcomes — both false positive and false negative. Education Law §3012-d has been passed. It requires the state’s Board of Regents to redesign the Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) process

Polansky is calling on albany to slow down on requiring districts to submit plans to evaluate teachers by sept. 1.

by June 30 and subsequently requires districts to submit a new plan by Sept. 1. The bulk of plan development would be slated for a time when key stakeholders may not be available. There are numerous education-related issues facing New York at this juncture. These issues must be approached with common sense and, again, with an eye toward what is best for our students. Why not begin such an approach with accepting the recent recommendation and allowing districts until at least September 2016 to build valid and sensible APPR plans? Give districts the time, resources and capacity to do this right. Provide them with the guidance and support

they need. Leave threats of withholding aid out of the equation. Education in New York is broken as a result of misguided and rushed initiatives that have left districts to their own devices to address state policy issues and misinformation spread throughout their communities. It is imperative that those in Albany reflect on what has happened and take the critical steps needed to restore transparency, close the wounds and repair what was and could return to being one of the finest educational systems in the country. Jim Polansky is the superintendent of the Huntington school district and former high school principal.

just have to be teachers,” he said. “It can be administrators, it can be anybody. It can be food service workers, it can be custodians — anybody — that they, they feel inspired. And I see that as our role. My role as superintendent is to partner with our board of education, partner with the community, partner with the administration and the staff to make that a reality.”

Harborfields sisters and physical educators, Christine Collins, left, and Kathleen Taylor, were recognized by their colleges for their prowess on the schools’ women’s lacrosse teams. Photo from Legislator Stern’s office Legislator Steve Stern with Eagle Scout Liam Shanahan of East Northport.

Shanahan joins the Eagle Scout flock Legislator Steve Stern (DHuntington) honored Liam Shanahan, of East Northport, with a proclamation to mark the celebratory occasion of the young leader becoming an Eagle Scout, the highest rank attainable in Boy Scouts of America. Shanahan earned the rank of Eagle Scout with Boy Scouts of Suffolk County, Troop 200,

after he devoted many hours of hard work to creating a wall of four closets at the Parish Outreach Center within St. Anthony of Padua R.C. Church in Northport. The closets are utilized by several ministries to hold materials such as knitting supplies so volunteers can make items for residents at the Department of Veterans Affairs in North-

port, as well as baby blankets, hats and sweaters for young mothers in need. “I am proud to honor Liam on becoming an Eagle Scout. His dedication to his troop, peers and community is a testament to his character and we are all fortunate to have young leaders like Shanahan as role models in our community,” Stern said.

Preston Carey is LI’s first YFO All Star

Preston Carey, a secondgrader at Fifth Avenue Elementary School, has been selected as a 2015 Youth Football All Star. The YFO All Star program has strict standards and honors student-athletes that demonstrate exemplary studies, community service and dedication to football. He is the first player selected from Long Island and joins other top athletes from across the nation. Preston plays for the Northport Tigers and the Long Island Spartans. He was selected by YFO because of his outstanding performance as

a quarterback and middle linebacker. “After watching Preston Carey’s game film at the QB position, we noted that he throws an extraordinary deep ball. He has excellent arm strength and consistently throws a tight spiral. He’s also accurate for his young age. Preston’s a very good dual threat QB, ready to beat you on the ground or in the air!” said Vin Sehgal of YFO. “Funny, smart and really active — Preston is like putting lightning in a jar!” said his teacher, Mrs. Petrone.

Harborfields sister-athlete educators honored Harborfields school district is proud to recognize two of its physical education teachers, who happen to be sisters, Kathleen Taylor and Christine Collins for being honored by their individual colleges for their exceptional athletic performances on the colleges’ women’s lacrosse teams. Washington Drive Primary School physical education teacher Taylor was among eight Hofstra alumni who were inducted into the Hofstra University Athletic Hall of Fame. Taylor was a member of the women’s lacrosse program from 1998 to 2001 and is one of seven Pride players to earn the Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Association All-America honor. Among other athletic recognitions, Taylor ranks second all-time in the history

of Hofstra women’s lacrosse in assists, sixth in goals and fourth in points. For the first time in the history of women’s lacrosse at the University of North Carolina, Thomas J. Lahey Elementary School physical education teacher Collins is one of two players to have their jerseys honored by the Tar Heels women’s lacrosse team. While the jersey numbers will remain active, Collins’ jersey will be displayed in the team’s locker room. As a Tar Heels player, Collins was a midfielder and co-captain in 2002, capturing the college’s only Atlantic Coast Conference Championship. During halftime of a Tar Heels game against Syracuse in Fetzer Field on April 11, Collins and former teammate Kellie Thompson were honored.

PASTORE Continued from page A2

Marissa’s mom is an emergency department nurse at Huntington Hospital and her dad is a former Huntington Manor Fire Department chief and a fireman with the New York City Fire Department (FDNY), according to the account. Both are volunteers at the Huntington Manor Fire Department, and the account was set up so the family could “concentrate solely on loving Marissa.” “Please help us support the Pastore family with any donation you can make which will go toward covering their living expenses while they take time off from work to celebrate Marissa’s life together.” Not only did the account amass more than $55,000 by Wednesday, Marissa got a special surprise when Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse, Olaf and other characters from popular Disney movies greeted the 14-year-old Disney lover, thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. According to Katrina Kurczak, one of

Marissa’s wish granters and assistant director of program services for Make-AWish, the nonprofit group and the family put together Marissa’s wish quickly. Family and community members contacted them Tuesday, April 28, and the group met with the family Wednesday. On Sunday, her wish came true. “She was surprised and so happy, she couldn’t believe it,” Kurczak said. The characters rode in on fire trucks and greeted her. The goal was to bring Disney to her, as Marissa is unable to travel due to her condition. Disney princesses Anna and Elsa from “Frozen” also made a special appearance and sang to the young girl. “Her dad wanted to do something to make her smile,” Kurczak said. Many volunteers came together to help make the day as special as possible. The Huntington Manor Fire Department, Cold Spring Harbor Fire Department and the FDNY also helped make Marissa’s wish come true.

Tulips, sheep and colonial muster On Sunday, May 3, Huntington kicked off spring with two of its festivals. Children and their families went from the booths and live entertainment at Huntington Town’s annual Tulip Festival, now

in its 15th year, to the live animals and historical games and crafts at the Huntington Historical Society’s Sheep to Shawl Festival. In between, the Order of the Ancient and Honorable Huntington Militia

Shining new musical play on Broadway

Between you and me By Leah S. Dunaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

his is going to be hard. I want to tell you about a highly original, marvelously acted, adventurous piece of musical theater I saw on Broadway last weekend, but I don’t want to give away much of the plot. I would hope you would see the play, as I did, knowing almost nothing about the details except that it has the highest number of Tony nominations this year with 12, alongside “An

American in Paris,” and concurrently has garnered spectacular raves from critics and audiences. For a play to be so applauded, it would have to be creative and break new ground for narrative, music and staging. “Fun Home” does all that. Performed at the Circle in the Square Theatre on 50th Street just off Eighth Avenue, and billed as a family tragicomedy, the show is adapted by Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori from Alison Bechdel’s graphic novel, based on a memoir she kept through the years of her growing up. OK, I will tell you it is both a coming of age and a coming out story. If you are the least bit uncomfortable with either of the themes, you should not see the play because the events portrayed are sometimes raw. And they are raw because they are heartbreakingly honest. We all try to understand our parents, even more so as we age, because these are the two people who made us. In understanding

them, we come to better know ourselves. So I will tell you further that the narrator of the play is the daughter and she is chasing her memories, trying to understand and come to terms with her father. Memories have an evanescent, shimmering quality to them and that makes them hard to pin down with certainty, even in our minds, much less on a stage. Therefore the device that this play employs is particularly interesting. There are three actresses who play Alison, the narrator, at different times of her life — as an 8-year-old, a 19-year-old and her current age of 43 — as she looks on and occasionally cringes at what the other two say and do, If you think about it, we all react that way sometimes when we think of our younger selves. So in this universal yearning to know our parents, some of the particulars of this family are unusual and in the viewing, they are wrenching. As has been said before, all happy families are happy in the same

way, but unhappy families are unhappy uniquely. Bruce, the father of three bright and imaginative children, is a high school English teacher, a restorer of old houses, the proprietor of a funeral home in a small Pennsylvania town and the husband of Helen, Alison’s mother. But his life is more than that, as divided personally as it is professionally, and therein lays the rest of the plot which I really am not going to tell you, however hard this is. I don’t want to ruin the surprises. I will share with you, however, that the staging cleverly involves trapdoors opening and closing to disgorge and swallow up at different times objects in the home as large as the grand piano. When the lighting dims, it serves as a curtain would between scenes in a more conventional theater. And the music, highly original and opera-like as it is occasionally spoken and sung, perfectly carries forward the

Memories have an evanescent, shimmering quality in ‘Fun Home.’ storyline and fills in the unsaid. It is sometimes made up of big, brassy show tunes and sometimes of heartfelt yearnings. Michael Cerveris and Judy Kuhn head up the cast in this poignant, provocative and haunting human drama, made all the more soulful because it is a real family we are watching. As they sometimes say on movie screens when the film ends, this story is based on actual events. This musical play has gone in a new direction and can be as forthright because of the times in which we live. Taboos can be spoken of out loud, and secrets can be revealed both on stage and in real life in an unprecedented way. This is both cathartic and liberating for audiences, as great art always is.

OPINION EDITORIAL

Stop it before it starts

Tensions between police departments across the country and the communities they have sworn to protect have been high over the last several months, and Suffolk County is not an exception in this trend. But we differ from the areas where tensions have exploded into street protests and violence in one crucial way: We can prevent such an eruption. A group of 21 local Latinos has recently filed a lawsuit against the Suffolk County Police Department, alleging officers racially profiled them and even robbed them during police stops over the last 10 years. The lawsuit alleges the police have a culture of discriminatory policing. The case is in part a response to the arrest of the SCPD’s Sgt. Scott Greene, who during a sting operation was found taking money from a Latino driver. Greene now faces 81 criminal

charges against a couple dozen Hispanic victims, and authorities say he was working alone. But we could trace the issue back a little further as well, to the 2008 hate-crime stabbing murder of Marcelo Lucero, a Patchogue man from Ecuador. In the wake of the murder — for which seven young men were convicted — and the police’s investigation, there was public outcry over perceived police bias against Hispanics. We have no doubt the majority of police officers are good people who just want to do their difficult, and at times dangerous, job of protecting Suffolk County residents. But it’s also true that a few bad apples can spoil the bunch — or lead to public perception that they have spoiled the bunch, which matters just as much. The good news is we are in a desirable position to change things for the better — if we acknowledge the warning signs of trouble. The places in this country where there have been protests and riots, for various reasons, tensions between the police and the community had been stewing for a while. We should not let this come to pass in Suf-

folk County through our own inaction. A 2013 settlement between the county Legislature and the federal Department of Justice — enacted in response to the Lucero case — is a good start. That agreement called for antibias training, taking feedback from the community and tracking complaints of police misconduct. Our police department should kick

Blue Devils remain top ranked, undefeated Boys’ Track & Field

Game 1

Game 2

A convincing victory at Rocky Point Tuesday, 102-34, kept the Huntington boys’ track and field team undefeated at 5-0, in first place in League V. But first, the boys claimed a 93-48 win over visiting Hauppauge last Tuesday, April 28, where Huntington’s athletes turned in strong performances across

the board, winning most of the contested events. The Blue Devils throwers had the greatest day of all, sweeping both the shot put and discus. It started with junior Vernon Alexander, who, on his first attempt, tossed the shot put nearly 48 feet, but kept his eyes on the moving object too long and ended up fouling when he stepped over the toe board. He rebounded in his second attempt and threw 45’8 for third place, a personal best for the teenager. Senior Matteo McNeil finished first in shot put after tossing the weighted ball 47 feet. Senior Jimmie Nelson took second place with a throw of 45’11. Junior Amaru Jones hit a personal best of 44’10 on his first attempt to finish fourth. In the unseeded section of the shot put, senior Aubrey Brewster threw a personal best of 40’8 and junior Tasean Betts threw 43’9. In the discus circle, the competition was even more exciting. Nelson and rookie Kenny Charles battled it out for top honors. Both athletes notched personal bests, with Nelson’s measuring

139’10 and Charles throwing 131’2. McNeil finished third with a throw of 118’2. On the track, senior Scott Gulizio won the 3,200-meter and was second in the 1,600. Junior Kyle O’Brien finished second in the 3,200. Sophomore Shane McGuire continued to display his potential. He closed ground late in the 800 to take second place. Sophomore Kyree Johnson and junior Infinite Tucker dazzled the crowd. “Both athletes performed at the top of their game,” Huntington head coach Ron Wilson said. Tucker won four events, including the long jump, with a leap of 22’6.5, the 110 high hurdles in 14.6 seconds, 400 intermediate hurdles in 55.2 seconds and the high jump with personal best leap of 6’6. Johnson won the 100 dash in a personal best time of 10.6 seconds, took first place in the 200 dash in 22.2 seconds, finished second behind Tucker in the long jump with a leap of 21’1 and anchored the 4x400 relay team to a first place victory. That relay also included McGuire as the lead leg, Tom Kopstein as the second leg and Gulizio as the third leg. Sophomore Alaa-el-dien Elfaham captured the triple jump. The teenager soared 38’10.5 on his first jump to lockup the victory. Senior Sondy Jean-Baptiste also had a good day, finishing second in the high jump at 6’2, the triple jump at 38’4 and

third in the long jump, with a personal best leap of 20’1. Senior Joe Saginaw won the pole vault with a height of 11 feet. Elfaham and junior Connor Grosso took second and third, respectively, with efforts that measured 9’6. Placings were decided by the fewest misses. Huntington has a dual meet remaining against defending League V champion Eastport-South Manor. The Blue Devils will compete in the Chrissy Games at Bellport on Saturday May 9 and in the Suffolk Freshman and Sophomore Championships at Longwood on Tuesday, May 19. The division championships are set for Wednesday, May 27 and Friday, May 29.
