3rd Grade Gold - Head Coach Rob Korn 6/5/2011 - With only 12 players for the game, the boys played hard and fought throught the exhaustion to put up an impressive 7-3 win over Mineola.  Hats off to all the boys whom worked so hard in every aspect of the game. 5/22/2011 - The boys played a fantastic game against Bethpage ending in a 5-5 tie.  The score just does not show the effort the boys put in.  We dominated possession of the ball and moved around the field extremely well. We picked up ground balls well and the defense put up a strong show.  Hats off to the boys whom just played such a great game. Keep up the hard work. 5-15-11 -  The boys played another terrific game today against Malverne winning by a score of 7-3.  The boys are putting up an extremely strong showing and playing great two way lacrosse.  Defense is just creating a wall that makes it difficult for our opponents to get near the net.  Our Midfield is running strong at getting back on D to help out the defense while our attack was running down shots and keeping us in possession of the ball.  Coach's could not be prouder at how well the boys are playing like a team. 5/7/11 - The boys played another fantastic game on Saturday against Lynbrook winning by a score of 8-2.  Everyone involved played a great game and the defense stepped up big not letting anyone through the middle.  We are all very proud of the way these boys are playing. 4/30/11- The boys played another great game today against Floral Park winning by a score of 11-7.  Moving the ball around and getting everyone involved has been a higlight of our progress.  Very Strong defensive play led by Alex DiLorenzo and Jonathan Scileppi clogging up the middle left it difficult for our opponent to make it through to the goal.  Goals scored by Christopher Caputo-4, Mikey Leva-3, Ryan Turner-2, Kelly Burke and Reid Feldman.  4-17-11 -  The boys played a fantastic game against Bellmore winning by a score of 10-1.  All the boys played well and moved the ball around better then we have seen all season.  The 4 goal rule forced them all to make consistent passes which really got them to open up their eyes and keep their heads up and in the game looking for the open man.  Goals were scored by Mikey Leva 4, Stephen Eger 2, Kelly Burke 2, William Korn 1 and Reid Feldman 1.  Outstanding goal tending by Danny Guido and Reid Feldman kept the opposition to only one goal. 4/10/11 - The boys played a fantastic game against Oyster Bay winning by a score of 9-8.  The highlights of the game came from every player looking for the open man and moving the ball around.  We saw goals scored from six different players which shows how well all the kids are working hard to integrate everyone into the game.  4/3/2011-The kids played a tough game against a well fortified Bayville team losing by a score of 5-2.  With only 13 players showing up, the boys worked hard but just ran out of steam.  Goals were scored by Christopher Caputo and Kelly Burke.  A fantastic job by our goalie Reid Feldman who made some fantastic saves to keep us in the game.    -top-

3rd Grade Black - Head Coach Eric Geringswald 4-10-11 - The Black team played a tough Plainview team and started out slowly for the second week in a row. Tyler Goldberg picked up ground balls at key moments in the game and Daniel Akinrele was a force on offense and defense while running midfield. Myles Braxton made several beautiful checks at key moments and Logan Allsopp protected the house and picked up his first ground ball. Logans run up the field with the ball helped us preserve the win.  4-3-11 - The Black team played a great game against Farmingdale. The team won 11-8 after trailing 2-0 in the first quarter. Brett Martin and Brandon Cosentino were two key factors in the game. the defense was up tot he task and Evan Stallone was huge in goal making key stops when the team needed them.     -top-

5th Grade Gold - Head Coach Tom Kelliher 6/05/11-The 5th grade boys gold team had a tough game against a big and strong Port Washington team this Sunday at home with a rough 8 to 2 loss...the 9 am starts continue to prove to be difficult since our boys are clearly not morning persons. They fought back tough in the second half and never gave up but Port Washington had a very strong defense and great goalie. We are looking forward to a strong finish at Farmingdale college this Sunday! 5/22/11- Team Gold was amazing this week coming back from down 5 to 1 to come back and and tie 5 to 5! Justin had another great goal (he scored the one against Northport last week) Zach had 2, C.J. and Hunter also had goals! Phillip Nick and Shane played great D, James and Austin combined for great goal tending, Eddie and Hunter had great assists, Jessie, Spencer, Stephen and Dylan were solid and had some great ground balls! A real battle and a real team effort! Great job! 5/15/11- Team Gold played an amazing game versus Northport battling to a 1 to 1 tie in a tough match. The entire team played great with minimal penalties and moving the ball well. James played great in goal and Northport's goalie stopped some excellent shots on goal. 5/08/11-The Gold Team played an amazing game and provided a great Mother's Day gift for their Mom's coming all the way back from down 5 to 1 to winning 7 to 6 against Lido/Point Lookout! They showed tremendous heart, gave it their all and left nothing on the field. Quinn, Nick and Phillip played great defense for the whole game with no subs, (Quinn also had a great assist and 5 ground balls); James came up big in the cage; goals and assists were spread all around and it was a great team effort! Stephen, Austin, Eddie, Justin and Jessie kept the attack up and Zach, Spencer, CJ,Hunter, Cherrod and Dylan L played excellent as middies! We were sorry to miss Dylan Ryder for the game who is out with a broken finger and we wish him a speedy recovery! 4/30/11-The team played outstanding today and came back from being down 5 to 1 to taking a game tying shot with 40 seconds left but the Syosset goalie came up big and we lost 7 to 6. All the boys gave a great effort considering we had very few subs, Special thanks to Connor, Drew, Mikey and Dylan who provided some much needed relief. Spencer stepped up playing after being sick and Stephen, Cherrod and CJ played great! Justin and Austin had nice goals and Drew's behind the back goal would have made coach Tony proud! Phillip and Shane were awesome on D and James played well in the cage! 4/17/11-The 5th grade gold boys had a real tough loss 4 to 3 at Harborfields in a real battle. They actually had tied the score (but the ref was working solo and too far off the play to see it) so a real life lesson for them. The team played well with fewer penalties. We got off to a slow start but had more shots on goal in the second half. Ground balls and fewer penalties will continue to be the focus going forward. James played another great game in goal and the entire team played with tremendous heart! 4/10/11- 5th Grade Gold Boys had a hard fought win 5 to 4 over Manhasset today at home on the Turf. James played a great game in goal and the defense stepped up big! When we started to move the ball and shoot, we had some great plays and assists! We need to continue to focus on ground balls, penalty free play and man up/ man down teams, but overall the boys played a great game and we are very proud of them! Stone cold Austin got out of the cage and contributed with the hat trick, Spencer and Justin contributed great goals as well! 04/03/11-The Gold Team played a great season opener away against Rockville Centre but lost 5 to 4 in a great match. Penalties proved to be the downfall since 4 of the other team's goal were scored while we were man down and we were only man up one time in the game. We will be focusing on the rules of the game and penalties at practice and look forward to continued improvement! -top-

5th Grade Black - – Head Coach Andy Martin 6/12/11 - Coming up 1 goal short in a 4 to 3 loss to a very good West Islip team, our boy's proved today that we can run and play with the best. From start to finish we were more physical, controlled the ball and played as a team. This was one of the hardest fought best games I have seen young men play. The heart and desire was there and this was the best game of the year and a great way to end a winning season. The boy's should be proud of their improvements throughout the year not only as individuals, but as a "TEAM". 6/5/11 - Hats off the the boy's today for an 8 to 2 pounding over Garden City. The boy's controlled the game from the first face off until the final whistle. Solid defense followed up by quick transition to the offensive end of the field solidified an all around "TEAM" effort in this convincing win. 5/22/11 - Today was a solid effort in a 7 to 3 win over a big Wantagh team. The offense is controlling the ball with quick passing and dodging and finding the open man for each goal. Defensively the boy's have really come together making it very difficult for the other teams to penetrate the middle for easy goals. Goal tending has been solid and for the 4th week in a row we have dominated face offs and the ground ball wars. Keep up the hard work boys! 5/15/11 - A solid effort today in the boy's 9 to 4 victory of a tough Kings Park team.  The boy's dominated the ground balls and face offs.  The defense was solid and the offense valued the ball through out the day to keep control of the game.  Great game boys. 5/8/11 - The 5th Grade Black Team continued on a roll today giving all the Mom's on Mothers Day a 10 to 9 victory over a hard shooting Rockville Center Team.  The boy's jumped out to a quick 5 to 1 lead and controlled the majority of the game until a brief let down in the 4th quarter.  But in the end the boy's stepped up and controlled the last few minutes to hold off a strong comeback by a talented team. 4/30/11 - The 5th Grade Black Team stepped out onto the field today determined to dominate the game.  Going up early, the boy's dominated the face offs and ground ball battles while playing solid defense to gain their first win of the season 8 to 4 over a good Northport Team. 4/17/11 - Today was a tough one.  We played a very good Wantagh team losing 9 to 3.  After a slow first half, the boys picked up the intensity and played tough defense only allowing 3 goals in the 2nd half. 4/10/11 - Coming up short in the end losing 5 to 3 to Cold Spring Harbor.  We were tied 3 / 3 in the 4th quarter only to have our go ahead goal called back on a bogus call.  This call took the wind from our sails but the boys played a great game of lacrosse. 4/3/11 - We started off the season to a very good West Islip team losing 7 to 3.  The game was much better than the score showed and the boys never gave up and played hard until the final whistle. -top-

6th Grade Gold - Head Coach Bob McManus 4/10/11 - Great 6- 4 win over Harborfields. Another good game by Anthony Palazzolo and a great showing by Sean McCarthy who had assisted on all 6 goals and won some very important face offs last in the game.  Austin “Stone Cold” Le Porin had  some amazing saves that again, kept us in the game.  Our defense was tenacious and made it very difficult for any Harborfields offensive player to come near our cage.  Thomas DiLorenzo in only his second game as a lacrosse player played great on defensive and Noah Dooley had another strong showing by keeping the attack under constant pressure. The rest of my defense contributed with timely slides and solid checks.  Great Job!! 4/3/11 - The 6th Grade Gold team started their season with a tough 7-4 loss to Wantagh.  Our 1st year players played exceptionally well!! Anthony Palazzolo lead the scoring with 2 goals.  Austin “Stone Cold” Le Porin played awesome in goal and kept us in the game. We still have some Winter rust that needs to be worked out but overall a very good showing for our first game. -top-

6Th Grade Black- Head Coach Pete Doran 05/22/2011 - The Hills 6th grade black team beat a very large Floral Park Team 9-1. Leading the way was Sean Gorman who scored 2 goals, Ryan Doran with a pair and 3 assists and Sean Lulley who had 2 and 2. The teams defense was solid lead by Kyle Tiernan and Charlie Ricottoni in goal. The teams record stands at 2-3-1 in Division 1. 05/8/2011 - The Hills 6th grade black team lost on Mother's Day to West Islip by a score of 8-3. Great effort from the entire team! 4/30/2011 -   The 6th grade black team played a very well lacrosse game against Bayville and came away with a 5-5 tie. Defense played like a team and Charlie came up big in the goal. Speaking of goals we had another first timer from Cole which was instrumental in the outcome of the game. 04/17/11-  The hills 6th grade black team played Garden City and won 10-5, better game than the score shows. The team was led by newcomer Ramsey Lewis who had 2 goals and won 2 face-offs, and Sean Gorman who scored his first goal this year. Solid play in the goal from Kyle Bockelman helped secure the victory. Good all around play by Ryan Doran, Sean Lulley, and Jared Breakstone. 04/10/11 - The 6th grade black team lost 11-3 to a very good Manhasett team. Team ball went to Ramsey Lewis for his first PAL career goal. Another strong effort was put forth from the entire team. O4/03/2011 - The Hills 6th grade black team lost their 1st game of the season against a very good Smithtown team by the score of 10-3. The boys all played well and tried to do their best, sometimes it's just not enough. Great 1st game by Jake Garziano! -top-

5th Grade Gold Girls - Head Coachs Dom Ciuffetelli & Trisha Dean 6/5/11 - Another close and EXCITING game versus Seaford! Coach loves a one-point game, just wish it was the other way one-point. Oh well, 10-9 the final score; with goals from Lindsey (hat-trick!), the speedy Kelly (2) and box-em-out Sam Leva (2), Sophia (1) and two weeks in a row Victoria! (1). Our most important stat of the game: TWO ASSISTS BY NATALIE!!! As a team, we need to work on this more, and Nat has been working hard on this all-season; this game she was all over those missed shots behind the cage and re-claiming the ball, resulting in A BUNCH OF VERY NICE FEEDS in front of the cage, two of which resulted in goals. Sammy Longo and Kelly led the team in aggressive play and ground balls… and Victoria, Sam Leva, Hannah (great D too!), Hailey, Megan S and Lindsey all contributed to the vacuum-cleaning effect with the ground balls this game. Isn’t it written somewhere? “Ground Balls Win Games.”  Mackie, Emma and Molly all contributed on both sides of the field in this game, especially when we needed it on the D-end of the field. And as always, the lovely and talented Christina B in net, saved us many times with a bunch of saves on MANY shots by the other team. A well-played last home game of the season. We didn’t come up with as many W’s as we would have liked this season, but each player has grown in their position and as a team we have grown within a tougher division of play this year. And that’s what’s most important. We think they had fun too! Nice job girls!! 5/22/11 - An exciting game against Bayville. The best game we ever lost. Of course we wanted the win and came up a bit short, 12 – 10; but we had goals scored by EIGHT different players and that is truly TALENT, DEPTH and TEAMWORK!!! Kelly led the scoring with a hat-trick of goals; Sam Leva, Alyssa, Victoria, Natalie, Mackie all deposited the ball into the back of the net once, while Sophia and Sam Longo showed their offensive-defensive threat with one goal each scored from the D-end of the field. Megan Lulley - everywhere we need her to be – a playmaker on both ends of the field. Brianna scooped up the ball numerous times and we feel a goal coming on before the end of the season. Maddie used her speed to move the ball up and down the field all morning, while Molly was on fire defensively this game and caused the other team to take a number of bad shots. Hailey proved again why she is the defensive threat we rely on, especially with a huge play at the end of the game which led to a much needed goal to close the gap in scoring. Big, BIG saves from Christina in goal! With a game like that, all we can do is look forward to taking the field again real soon…. 04/10/11 - KUDOS go to the 13 girls who played one TOUGH GAME with only one sub against an army of skilled Garden City players!!! We are SO PROUD of the mettle these girls showed throughout the game. Although GC got up early 5 – 0, we kept fighting, ending the half 5 – 2 and coming on strong in the second half (gotta love it, not always our strong suit) and closing the gap to 2 points twice, coming out on the short side of the scoreboard 10-6 in the end (with two injuries and down 1 player on the field), but high on heart, hustle & commitment! Goals were scored by five different players – Lindsey (2), Mackie, Kelly, Megan L, and Hannah O!!! Awesome as always in the cage – Christina! Tough defense all around the field… Haley, Sammy Longo, Danielle, Molly, Emma… and Brianna and Natalie backing up the cage on attack, scooping the ground balls and making plays. This is how you take on a tough oponent and lose gracefully. Well played girls!!! 04/03/11 - The Girls of Hills 5 Gold opened their season with a W against a competitive Wantagh team at home on the turf. More important than the final outcome was the way they all played hard, worked smart and stayed focused!! Goals were scored by 7 different players: Samantha Leva led the day with 3, Alyssa DeSanti and Megan SooHoo popped in two a piece and Lindsey Dean, Victoria Eger, Megan Lulley and Kelly Sullivan each hit the back of the net once. Haley DeMott, Alyssa DeSanti and Sam Leva all led the charge on ground balls; with help from Sophia Russo, Sammy Longo, Natalie Nickolus, and Molly Lennon. Mackie DeMott and Brianna Novitz ensured that X was covered on attack and picked up a few balls in the process. At Defense, we saw some good slides and transitional runs by Danielle Fattibene, Hannah O'Brien and Molly Lennon, while Sophia Russo and Haley DeMott were as aggressive as ever getting that ball to our side of the field. Our secret weapon in the cage, Christina Badaracco, made an amazing 11 saves to keep the score close but not too close!  When we all work together amazing things happen. Way to go TEAM!!! Final score: Hills 11 - Wantagh 9   -top-

5th Grade Black Girls - Head Coach Bob Rocco 4/03/11:  The 5th grade girls Black team started their spring 2011 season hosting the Bellmore/Merrick squad.  The two teams met on the turf at High School East before a capacity crowd.  The sun was shining, the winds were calm and the girls took the field with great excitement. From the opening whistle, Hills Lady Pride were relentless winning most of the ground balls and attacking the goal.  Z won the first 15 draws with a powerful thrust and Sabrina, Sage and Gianna were there to win the ground balls.  The Lady Pride attack was relentless led by Sabrina, Lindsay, Morgan, Tatianna, Ava, and Callie.  Great defensive performances by Olivia, Kaitlin, Caroline, Laura and Nicole while Kayla and Olivia played strong in goal.   The two MVP's of this game go to Z for winning every draw, (15-0) and Olivia N. for allowing just 1 goal while making 8 saves!   Great start Lady Pride!!! -top-
