Serving Stony Brook A Long Island scout stepped up for Stony Brook’s osprey population. Neighbors and members of PSEG Long Island helped Aidan Donnelly, a 13-year-old honor student at Dawnwood Middle school in Centereach, complete his Eagle Scout Service Project on Saturday May 9 soon after the boy approached the utility company about installing an osprey nesting pole out of harm’s way at West Meadow Beach.

In order to achieve the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouts, scouts must earn at least 21 merit badges and complete an extensive service project that the scout plans, organizes, leads and manages. Donnelly organized the meetings with PSEG Long Island and the Town of Brookhaven, then planned and led his fellow scouts from Troop 362 in the construction of an osprey nest platform, adding to his current total of 48 merit badges.

Microbeads pose threat to Stony Brook waterway By Phil Corso

When it comes to water pollution, size does not matter. That’s why a group of environmental advocates gathered along the shoreline of the Long Island Sound in Stony Brook last week to call for state legislation that would ban the tiny but potentially harmful microbeads in personal care products. The rally was organized to coincide with World Oceans Day on June 8 and zeroed in on the Microbead-Free Waters Act, which would ban personal care products made with the tiny plastic pellets called microbeads, which advocates said are hurting waterways and wildlife because New York’s wastewater treatment plants are not equipped to filter them prior to the water’s release into the environment. The legislation passed the Assembly in April but has remained idle in the Senate. The bill is sponsored in the Senate by Republican Environmental Conservation Committee Chair Tom O’Mara (R-Big Flats), with 37 cosponsors — a total that surpasses the 32 votes it needs to pass. William Cooke, director of government relations for the Citizens Campaign for the Environment, helped orchestrate the rally and called on Sen. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) to use his new role as majority leader to help

ensure a microbead ban passes before legislative session ends June 17. “While microbeads are small, the problem they are creating is very large,” Cooke said. “The solution is unbelievably simple and absolutely free. The answer is to take them out of our products now. This legislation currently has more support than is needed to pass. The only question is will the new Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan allow it to move forward.” The New York State Attorney General reported that 19 tons of plastic microbeads enter the wastewater stream in New York annually, and the tiny beads are passing through treatment plants on Long Island and throughout the state. Plastic microbeads in state waters accumulate toxins, are consumed by fish and can work their way up the food chain, putting public health at risk. “The Microbead-Free Waters Act has a clear pathway to passage. If it’s not brought up for a vote, it’s a clear sign that industry has once again silenced the majority of New York’s state senators,” said Saima Anjam, environmental health director at Environmental Advocates of New York, who was at the rally. “New Yorkers expect more from new leadership. … Senators Flanagan and O’Mara need to allow a simple up or down vote on bills supported by a majority of members.” Flanagan’s office declined to comment

on the matter. Late last year, Suffolk County committed to studying the health and economic impacts of banning microbeads on the county level to the praise of county Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket), who argued that Suffolk needed to follow the likes of municipalities like Illinois, which was the first state to outright ban the sale of cosmetics containing plastic microbeads.

“On a macro level, there is no doubt that microbeads are finding their way into our nation’s rivers, lakes and oceans,” said Hahn, chairwoman of the Legislature’s Environment, Planning and Agriculture Committee. “What we need to know is to what extent, locally, these additives [impact] our environment and, if corrective action is needed, what ramifications would be expected.”

Massive fish kill in Riverhead a concern for county By Alex Petroski

The estimated nearly 100,000 dead bunker fish that have washed up ashore in Riverhead may seem astounding, but it wasn’t all that surprising to the panel of experts brought before the Suffolk County Health Committee on June 11. In late May, the thousands of dead bunker fish, formally known as Atlantic menhaden fish, began appearing in the Peconic Estuary, an area situated between the North and South Forks of Long Island. According to a June 2 press release from the Peconic Estuary Program, the bunker fish died as a result of low dissolved oxygen in the water. This shortage of oxygen is called hypoxia. Walter Dawydiak, director of the county’s environmental quality division, who serves on the panel, which was organized by the health committee chairman, Legislator William “Doc” Spencer (DCenterport), testified that the number of dead fish was at or approaching 100,000. “This one is bigger and worse than any,” Dawydiak said. According to the PEP, which is part of the National Estuary Program and seeks to conserve the estuary, bunker are filterfeeding fish and an important food source for many predatory fish, including striped bass and blue fish. Alison Branco, the program’s director,

said the fish are likely being chased into shallow waters by predators, but are dying because of low dissolved oxygen levels in the waters. In addition, an algae bloom is contributing to the low levels and is fueled by excess nitrogen loading. Much of that nitrogen comes from septic systems, sewage treatment plants and fertilizer use. “We’ve reached a point where this kind of hypoxia was run of the mill. We expect it every summer,” Branco, who also served as a panelist, said following the hearing. While magnitude of the fish kill was astounding, the experts said they weren’t so surprised that it happened. “I definitely thought it could happen at any time,” Christopher Gobler, a biologist at Stony Brook University, said in a oneon-one interview after the panel hearing. “There’s been an oxygen problem there all along.” Gobler called it the largest fish kill he’d seen in 20 years. According to panel members, the worst of the fish kill occurred between May 27 and May 30. Branco did suggest that this shocking environmental event could be turned into a positive if the right measures are taken sooner rather than later. “It’s always shocking to see a fish kill,” she said. “As much as we don’t want to have things like that happen I think the silver lining is that it did capture the pub-

lic’s attention.” Prevention of a fish kill this large is possible, according to Branco. While preventing the harmful algal blooms is not possible, reducing the frequency and severity can be done if the amount of nitrogen in the coastal water supply is controlled. Adrienne Esposito, executive director of Citizens Campaign for the Environment, an environmental policy advocacy group, agreed that curtailing the amount of nitrogen in the water is the easiest and most impactful way for prevention of a fish kill of this magnitude. “The journey of a thousand miles starts

with the first step,” Esposito said in response to a question about the daunting task of fixing the Island’s sewage treatment techniques and facilities on a limited budget. Esposito described the roughly $5 million from New York State, which was allotted to Suffolk County to deal with cleaning the coastal water supply, as seed money. Esposito and Branco both said they believe the commitment of time and money required to solve the nitrogen problem in the water supply will be vast. “We can do this,” she said. “We have to do it. We have no choice.”

North Shore lawmaker lauds mute swan legislation By SuSan RiSoli

Mute swans might soon have an easier relationship with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, if a bill recently passed through the York State Legislature is signed into law. The legislation was written to require DEC to provide scientific documentation that mute swans are a threat to the environment. Also, before taking any action to control the state’s mute swan population, the DEC would have to hold at least two public hearings and give the public at least 45 days to comment on its plans for dealing with the birds. The legislation package passed the state Assembly June 9 and had passed the state Senate on April 22. Mute swans, a non-native species from Europe, are considered an invasive species, according to the state DEC. Trumpeter swans, also found in New York, are native to the region and are not included in the DEC’s management plan. The agency’s proposed mute swan management plan, released in March, called for limiting the statewide population to 800 birds. By 2002, there were more than 2,000 mute swans downstate and 200 upstate, the report said. State Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket), chairman of the Assembly’s Committee on Environmental Conserva-

tion, said in a phone interview Tuesday that the mute swan legislation was a response to public concern “that had been raised, particularly about the lack of appropriate science to justify this eradication of a very beautiful animal” that inspires “a sense of curiosity about the environment,” particularly among children. In April, Englebright and Assemblyman Steven Cymbrowitz (D-Brooklyn), also a member of the Committee on Environmental Conservation, sent DEC’s Bureau of Wildlife a letter saying the agency disregarded the state Legislature’s requests for “full documentation of the scientific basis for management decisions” and requests for “less reliance on lethal management measures. The DEC has failed to provide compelling scientific information as to why such an aggressive management strategy is being pursued.” DEC spokesman Jomo Miller said in an emailed statement Tuesday that the agency is reviewing the letter from Englebright and Cymbrowitz “as part of its review of the comments received” on the draft management plan. The DEC hopes to adopt a final plan later this summer, Miller said. “At that time, we will provide a response to the principal comments received, as we did for comments on the first draft of the plan,” he said. In an interview, Englebright said the legislation is “not just an exercise in willfulness

on our part but an exercise in democracy,” and it reflects “a very high interest” from the public about the fate of the swans. The legislation would require DEC to “give priority to nonlethal management techniques” for controlling the mute swan population. The proposed plan said it does not advocate any specific method of controlling the population, and because many people object to the use of lethal control methods, especially killing adult birds, the DEC will use “nonlethal” methods where practical and timely to achieve the management objectives, the report said. Research shows that mute swans “can significantly reduce the availability of

submerged aquatic vegetation in wetland ecosystems” depending on the number of swans relative to the size of the area being considered, the spokesperson said. The DEC said in the draft management plan that mute swans hurt the environment by eating and uprooting large quantities of plants that are food for fish and other wildlife. Swan feces have high levels of coliform bacteria, which can make waters unsafe for drinking, swimming and shell fishing, the document said. Their presence near airports poses “a serious threat to aviation,” the plan said. It also said that territorial swans have been known to attack people and other birds.

Bellone pitches $350 million transportation plan Builds upon revitalization efforts and Connect LI By GiSelle BaRkley

As the percentage of youth on Long Island declines, regional leaders are determined to entice young people to move in and stay, but their plan comes with a price. On Tuesday, County Executive Steve Bellone (D) and several regional leaders, including Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R), announced they are seeking $350 million to fund the Long Island Innovation Zone, I-Zone, plan. I-Zone aims to connect Long Island’s transit-oriented downtown areas, like New Village in Patchogue, the Meadows at Yaphank and the planned Ronkonkoma Hub, to institutions like Stony Brook University, Brookhaven National Laboratory and Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The I-Zone plan emphasizes the use of a bus rapid transit, or BRT, system that runs north to south and would connect Stony Brook University and Patchogue. There will also be a paralleling hiking and biking trail, and the system will serve as a connection between the Port Jefferson, Ronkonkoma and Montauk Long Island Rail Road lines. The goal is to make Long Island more appealing to the younger demographic and avoid local economic downturns. According to the Long Island Index, from 2000 to 2009, the percentage of

people aged 25-34 decreased by 15 percent. The majority of these individuals are moving to major cities or places where transportation is readily accessible. “We must challenge ourselves because if we don’t, we have an Island at risk,” Romaine said. Government officials acknowledged that without younger people living on Long Island the population will be unable to sustain the local economy. Fewer millennials means there are less people who will purchase property and contribute to the success of businesses in the area. The proposal comes after Governor Andrew Cuomo’s (D) call for regional planning. The plan also builds upon the Ronkonkoma Hub plan, with the installation of sewers and a new parking area. The I-Zone proposal claims to improve Long Island’s water quality, as funding will help connect sewers through Islip downtown areas to the Southwest Sewer District. Additionally, the plan calls for the construction of a new airport terminal on the north side of Long Island MacArthur Airport in Islip and for the relocation of the Yaphank train station in closer proximity to Brookhaven National Laboratory. “We have all that stuff [access to recreational activities, education center and downtown areas] here but we don’t have a connection. We don’t have any linked together,” said Justin Meyers, Suffolk’s

If funding for the project is received, construction could begin in approximately two years, Meyers said, adding that constructing the BRT and the hiking and biking trial would take as few as five years. Bellone said that without younger people moving in, the trend could lead to the Island’s economic stagnation. “We are aging faster than any other region in our country,” he said. “The inevitable result of that will be an ever-growing population that naturally is pulling more social services infrastructure.”

Family erects memorial one year after fatal crash

A memorial area is decorated outside of the church Monica Peterman once attended.

It has been one year without Smithtown hospital worker Monica Peterman, but her name was memorialized forever outside the church her family frequents. Peterman, 45, was killed on June 14, 2014, in a car crash on the same route she often drove between her home in Middle Island and Smithtown’s St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center, where she worked. Her family has spent the better part of the past year in courtrooms, to learn the fate of the man accused of crashing into her — Setauket cardiologist Thomas Stavola — but took a step back this week to remember Peterman as a daughter, mother and wife. The Peterman family gathered with members of the Holy Church of Christ congregation in Central Islip on Sunday to unveil a memorial garden and seating area outside of the church created in Peterman’s memory. Despite the uncertainty of the ongoing court cases, the family said it was important to pay tribute to the impact Peterman had on their lives, and vice versa, on the one-year anniversary of her death. Peterman’s children and husband spoke of the horrific memory of the day they lost their mother and wife while fighting back tears on Sunday afternoon. “Thank you for playing a part in my wife’s life,” said Russel Peterman, Monica’s husband, in a video of the ceremony on Sunday. “Just thank you, and thank you and thank you.” A memorial was erected outside the church with donations collected throughout the entire Holy Church of Christ community. Later this summer, a bench, complete with an etching of Monica Peterman’s name, will be added to the area. A spokeswoman for St. Catherine said in an email that Peterman, who worked at the hospital for more than 10 years, was

known as a dedicated and well-respected worker and will be greatly missed. Stavola, 55, was arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated— a misdemeanor — after the June 14 crash killed the Middle Island native and mother of three, the Suffolk County Police Department said. He pleaded not guilty to the second-degree manslaughter charge, which was upgraded from the original driving while intoxicated charge, as Peterman’s family looked on. He was released on continuation of the $250,000 bond he posted last month, District Attorney Tom Spota said. Peterman’s family filed a $20 million civil suit against Stavola last summer, with hopes of sending the greater message that driving while intoxicated should warrant strict penalties, according to Barbara Sims, Peterman’s mother. Family members and friends memorialized the Middle Island mother back in October with a commemorative plaque placed inside the hospital, where she worked for more than a decade. Stavola’s next court appearance was scheduled for June 26 at 9 a.m. His attorney did not return requests seeking comment. Spota said the impact of the collision embedded the front license plate of Stavola’s 2013 Audi into Peterman’s 2009 Mercedes side door. His blood, which officers drew 90 minutes after the crash, had a blood alcohol level of .10, Spota said. Witnesses then helped give officers a description of Stavola, who called for help over the air to nearby patrols. A police sergeant on his way to the crash scene spotted Stavola walking briskly, with his head down, nearly 500 feet away from the crash, the district attorney said. Stavola, a doctor with Stony Brook Community Medical’s North Suffolk Cardiology, was treated at Stony Brook Hospital for minor injuries.

It was both Voelker and DeLeo’s first year participating in Soldiers on the Sound. Skip Hein is the only founding member of Soldiers on the Sound with a military background. He is a retired senior master sergeant who served in the U.S. Air Force and New York Air National Guard. “Back in Vietnam, the public wasn’t really supportive of the military, so it’s just natural that I’d want to show my thanks to the military now,” Hein said.

Supervisor Ed Romaine makes friends with a dog at the town animal shelter.

Canine or feline friends up for lower adoption fees By Talia amoRoSano

Brookhaven Town is reducing adoption costs at its animal shelter this month. According to a recent town press release, the Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center on Horseblock Road will offer discounted adoption fees through June. While the fees are normally $137 for a dog and $125 for a cat, they have been dropped to $60. The lower fee includes a free neuter or spay for the animal as well as a free microchip, vaccinations, heartworm test and animal license. The reduced price is partly the result of renovations that are currently taking place at the shelter. The shelter’s website notes that “pet overpopulation is of great concern” and that it is especially important for some of the animals to be adopted during the next four to six weeks because kennels will be renovated during that timeframe. The shelter has also invested in new air conditioners, freshly painted walls and new floors. But Martin Haley, Brookhaven Town’s commissioner of general services, said

adoption discounts like this one are common throughout the year regardless of special circumstances like construction and renovation, because the shelter staff is constantly trying to incentivize adoption. As of Monday, there were 78 animals in the shelter. Haley said the number fluctuates every day and the shelter’s goal is to keep the population manageable. He said the animals can become difficult to manage at numbers of 80 to 100, but it varies on a case-by-case basis with animals’ spatial and behavioral needs. According to Haley, most of the animals currently housed at the shelter are dogs, but there are also about 30 cats and kittens available for adoption. The shelter is open from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays; from 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays; from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays; and from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sundays. It is closed on Wednesdays. Anyone interested in adopting a pet may call the shelter at 631-451-6950 or visit www.brookhaven.org/animalshelter for more information.

OPINION Say ‘Yes’ to horseshoe harvesting limits

File photo by Rachel Shapiro

Pumping nitrogen into our local waters can contribute to fish kills and have other nasty environmental effects.

EDITORIAL

Water we going to do about this?

There is no need more basic than clean water. We need it in its simplest form to survive, but we also need it to be clean so that it can sustain the animals and plants we eat and support the environments we live in. So why aren’t we trying harder to avoid pumping it with toxins? Tens of thousands of dead bunker fish have recently washed up on eastern Long Island, killed by low levels of dissolved oxygen in the water. Algal blooms are a cause of those low oxygen levels, and that’s where we come in — the blooms, in turn, can be caused by excess nitrogen in the water. How does that nitrogen get there? It can come from our septic and sewage treatment systems and from the fertilizers we use on our nicely manicured lawns, to name just a few sources. We may not be able to avoid using the toilet, but we can easily refrain from dumping fertilizers with harmful chemicals into the ground and our water supply. But many of us are operating on obsolete waste systems and our governments should be making it a top priority — in action, not just rhetoric — to move communities over from septic to sewer. This is undoubtedly a costly process, but it has benefits beyond the immediate. For example, sewer systems enable and encourage development, which is important for all of the downtown areas we are working to revitalize. Revitalized downtowns could help keep young people on Long Island, reversing the brain drain that is the source of such frequent sound bites for our politicians. Shoring up our water management plans would create a ripple effect throughout so many other important items on our political and social agendas. Without clean water, none of these ambitious improvements will be achieved. We are calling for a heightened awareness from both our neighbors and our public officials not to let our water initiatives run dry.

TO THE EDITOR: Four Harbors Audubon Society supports Supervisor Ed Romaine’s original position to ban horseshoe crab harvest from the Town of Brookhaven. Mr. Supervisor: You were spoton in your original proposal. These crabs live few places on earth, surviving virtually unchanged for 450 million years. We welcome their presence, particularly in spring, when residents, families, and school groups can watch as they enter shallow waters to lay their eggs. Since the 1990s, crabs have been used in the biomedical field, their blue blood vital to detect toxins. Historically, they were used for fertilizer, because they were free and plentiful. Currently they’re used for bait, primarily to satisfy the food market overseas in Asia, with an appetite for American eels and whelk. That is how humans use horseshoe crabs. But their survival is now challenged. Legal harvests, illegal poaching, and falling numbers make the situation for manage-

For Violet TO THE EDITOR: I am writing to share my thoughts on the passing of Violet Thompson, retired Three Village school district employee and lifetime resident of the Three Village area. Thompson, fondly known as “Mrs. T.,” was a special and treasured member of the custodial and athletic departments at the high school for more than 40 years. I met “Mrs. T.” in 1974, when I was a rookie staff member of the Physical Education and Athletics department. She took me under her wing and was one of my earliest mentors. Her knowledge of the district’s history, from its early days at “Main

ment dire. Many acted, including the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission, which promoted limits in 1999. New Jersey instituted a complete ban and their numbers are recovering. New York State’s Department of Environmental Conservation tightened harvest once more in 2006 and our numbers are still in decline. This is where Audubon comes in. Horseshoe crabs are a keystone species, as they are vital for the survival of other species. Crabs are mostly harvested in spring, when they are easy to catch as they approach shorelines to lay eggs. These eggs are food for fish, and for numerous federally protected migratory shorebirds, and the only food source for a now threatened species, known as the red knot. The red knot’s spring migration is one of the longest on earth — a 9,300-mile journey from the southern tip of South America to the Arctic Circle. On the way, red knots drop down from flight and feed here, a visit timed perfectly with the freshly laid eggs of the horseshoe crab. Every loss in horseshoe crab population over the last 20 years has corresponded to a red knot loss, with red knots starving, rather than feeding, on their trip Street School” — now known as Setauket Elementary School — to becoming Three Village school district was invaluable to me. She also shared her vivid memories and recollections of her life in the Setauket area. Her ancestors, African and Native Americans, had a great influence and impact on the development and history of this region. She was extremely proud of this heritage and her roots. Thompson was a leader in the community. She was an active, lifetime member of the Bethel AME Church and served the Setauket Women’s Auxiliary of the American Legion for more than 65 years. She was a doer, giving 110% to any and all undertakings. I recall that, at Ward Melville High School,

north. If there are those who claim economic concerns, then let’s help them obtain the alternative bait sources which are now available. So, we ask you to stay on course, recognizing that there are vocal objectors who’ve attempted to sway you otherwise. To this we say, there was a time we could take as many crabs as we wanted, without any thought as to their future numbers. But it’s not the world we live in any more, and everyone of us — especially harvesters — should be concerned about their possible elimination. Your ban is timely, and a model for all towns to follow. You actually have the rare power to save a species. Elaine Maas Education coordinator Four Harbors Audubon Society

she knew the students by name, their friends and family members, and teams they played on. She knew their personal stories and, most of all, she demonstrated genuine care and concern for each child. She was loved by everyone. Thompson will be remembered as a woman of deep faith, who loved her family, community, her job and country. She has left her mark on the Three Village community, impacting many lives, and will be greatly missed. She was a role model for a life well-lived, and was truly a gift and blessing to all who knew her. Michele Dougherty Retired chairperson of Health/PE Three Village school district Wading River

Looking for positive role models to celebrate

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

vtimes@tbrnewspapers.com

I

’ve got a proposal for you. You write in and share the kinds of acts that reflect positive role models and I’ll share them with our readers. I don’t know about you, but I’ve got bad news fatigue, reading headlines online and in newspapers about people doing all kinds of terrible things to strangers, neighbors and family members.

Every time an athlete, actor or politician does something embarrassing, awful or illegal, it becomes the talk of the town, triggering endless discussions about negative role models, driven by the pampered lives of those accustomed to living without boundaries. We have become a culture of rubberneckers, watching the “gotcha” moments when reporters demand accountability from horrible landlords. We also watch shows like “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” where people routinely hurt themselves doing ill-advised activities, like jumping over something sharp on a skateboard. Yes, of course, some of those “gotcha” moments can benefit us, helping us as we stay vigilant against the same kind of scams or illegal activities we don’t want to trick us. But what about recognizing and emulating those people who affect positive change and tap into a seemingly endless

wellspring of energy to improve the community? How about the person answering the phone who has a kind, supportive word for anyone who calls; the receptionist who remembers every patient who comes into a doctor’s office; or the crossing guard who holds a stop sign in the middle of the busy morning commute, demanding safety for every child and encouraging anxious kids on their way to classes. As we approach the longest day of the year, I’d like to offer you a chance to celebrate the sunshine in our communities. It’s harder for newspapers to see the sort of random acts of kindness that people share every day. After all, the police have press conferences and updates whenever there’s a crime spree or when someone does something the public needs to know about so we can protect ourselves. A friend of ours recently started battling serious health issues. His

wife has been by his side, while his children continue to go about their daily routines, to the extent possible. They go to school, take tests and walk the dog. Once their friends learned about these challenges, they rallied around the family, signing up through an organization called Lotsa Helping Hands to help provide meals and share in the dog responsibilities. These are the sort of things people routinely do to make life better for each other. We have role models throughout our community. My son’s teacher, for example, recently noticed that he earned a lower grade on a quiz than she was accustomed to seeing from him. He didn’t fail and it didn’t cause his grade to drop dramatically. Still, she didn’t write off the result as a bad day or chalk it up to adolescent distraction. Instead, she asked to speak with him for a moment after class, where she went over each of the areas where he lost points. I’m sure that happens

If you see something great, write in and I’ll share with our readers.

regularly with teachers throughout the community, who encourage and support their students in a way that might one day ignite a successful career. To offer a corollary to the Homeland Security slogan, I’d like to suggest that “If you see something great, say something.” People routinely go out of their way to make a world filled with challenges a better place. It’s often the small things that stay with us through the day, like the magic that comes from transforming a child’s anxious frown into a selfassured grin.

Behind LI baseball draftees are dedicated dads Three Village’s Ron Matz and Hauppauge’s Nick Fanti Sr. are recognized for the impact they had on their sons’ careers By ALex PeTRoSki

Being drafted by a Major League Baseball team is a massive accomplishment. The journey from tee-ball to the big leagues is one that weeds out just about everyone along the way, but the select few who actually make their way into a professional lineup all have a common denominator: a strong support system. Though they’ll never take the credit away from their hardworking sons, Nick Fanti Sr. and Ron Matz deserve some recognition ahead of Father’s Day. Nick Fanti Jr. played baseball for Hauppauge High School. He was selected in the 31st round by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 2015 MLB Draft last week. “I don’t know the words,” Fanti Sr. said in a phone interview about his son being selected by Philadelphia. Pride was the word Fanti Sr. settled on after some deliberation. “It brings tears to your eyes, even now thinking about it,” he said. Fanti Sr. gained experience in being a supportive dad of his athletic children over the course of his four daughters playing careers, all of which are older than Fanti Jr. “You realize there’s nothing you can do. … I enjoy just watching and possibly talking to him afterwards,” Fanti Sr. said about how hands-on he is as he juggles his role as a dad, coach and fan of a talented son. “You hope you’ve given them all the tools.” With Father’s Day quickly approaching, Fanti Jr., who went 7-1 with a 0.67 ERA, a 0.63 WHIP and 87 strikeouts in 52 innings, knows how much having a supportive dad over the years means when you’re trying to follow your dream of making it in the big leagues. “He was never hard on me about the results of the game like most parents,” Fanti Jr. said about his dad. “He is most concerned with if I respect the game — running on and off the field, and having a good attitude.

When he does critique how I played, I listen because he’s been through it.” Fanti Sr. said he knew his son was special at an early age. “When he was 10 or 12 he said to me, ‘Dad, Mickey Mantle’s soul went into my glove,’” Fanti Sr. said. “That was his idol.” Their talented son now wearing a Phillies uniform does not faze the Fantis, who are lifelong Yankee fans. “I’m just so happy for him,” Fanti Sr. said. “He’s going to make it anywhere he goes.” His son has to decide if he wants to report to the Phillies or play college ball at Marist College. Fanti Sr. said that he’ll offer his son guidance, but it’s ultimately his decision. Fanti Sr. was hesitant to take any credit for his son’s success, though he did mention some people that helped along the way, but he does credit his wife Laura with preparing her son a five-course breakfast everyday. “It’s not only myself, but all the people
