The Newfield girls varsity soccer squad launched their 2024 campaign with a youthful roster that, features more freshmen than seniors.

Having dropped their season opener  5-0 to West Babylon two days earlier, the Wolverines righted the ship at home against Southampton on Sept. 5 in a nail-biter that went into overtime.

Newfield freshman, Camila Loor, broke the ice for the Wolverines at the 23-minute mark, when her shot found the back of the net off an assist from co-captain, Isabella Norton, for the early lead.

Southampton answered two minutes into the second half with, a shot on goal that tied the game 1-1, as the clock bled down to end regulation. 

Newfield eighth grader, Jazmyn Quinones, dished the ball off to Norton, whose shot found its mark, to win the game 2-1 in the non-league matchup. Sophomore goalie Emily Leo had five saves in net.

In their League III opener, the Wolverines hosted Commack, Sept. 9, but fell 6-0.

Fresh off back-to-back wins, Shoreham-Wading River boys soccer looked to make it three in a row on Sept. 9, when the team hosted Bayport-Blue Point, at home, and never let up, from the kickoff onward, at Thomas Cutinella Memorial Field Monday afternoon.

The Wildcats peppered the scoreboard, leading by four goals at the half-time break, then rattled off three more unanswered goals in the second half, shutting out the Phantoms 7-0, in the League VIII matchup.

Senior striker, Samuel Sweet, had one goal and two assists, while Tyler Nowaski found the back of the net twice. Additionally, seniors Patrick Shea and Luke Tannenbaum both stretched the net, as did sophomores Zachary Makarewicz and Evan DeGroot.

Goalie, Brandon Smith, a junior, had a quiet day in net stopping three.

The Wildcats have allowed only one goal in the early going, while scoring an impressive 16, keeping them atop the leaderboard with Elwood-John Glenn.

Having won their season opener convincingly with an 11-2 blowout over Wyandanch, the Port Jefferson Lady Royals soccer team made it two in a row in a home game against Hampton Bays Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 10. 

Port Jeff senior, Emily Snyder, broke free in the final minutes of the first half and drilled a shot to the back of the net unassisted to break the deadlock. Nina Gnatenko’s shot to the corner of the net provided the insurance goal but the freshman wasn’t finished yet. She struck again with a header into the back of the net off a corner kick to put her team ahead 3-0 for a comfortable victory. 

Port Jeff hit the road with an away game at East Hampton on Sept. 11 but the result was not available before press time. The Royals next home game will be against Babylon on Friday, Sept. 13. Game time is slated for 4:30 p.m.

As the saying goes, “The show must go on,” and despite high temperatures, in the shared parking lot of East Wind and The Shoppes in Wading River, the show did go on, as it does every Wednesday evening from 5 to 9 p.m. through October with a Cruise Night Car Show. 

Packing the lot was a full complement of vintage classic cars and souped up muscle cars, along with the most modern exotic automobiles.

The area’s business owners welcome the enthusiastic, Wednesday night cruisers, because they bring their appetites and peruse the community’s various speciality shops.

Scenes from the annual Greek Festival, held at the Greek Orthodox Church of the Assumption, in Port Jefferson. The celebration was held from Aug. 22-25, and was truly a display of great culural pride, as well as the perfect place for some good-old-fashioned family fun!

The action was in full steam at the Three Village Tennis Club Saturday morning, Aug. 17, with both singles and mixed doubles play. The club is nestled behind The Setauket Neighborhood House on Main Street, in East Setauket. 

Mostly hidden from view lies seven clay courts, that members can use from April 1 through mid-November, weather permitting. The club was established in 1959, with a single hard court, and over the years, added six more — all of which are now clay.

Tennis director, Paul Smith, could be seen restringing members rackets, and said the club has 280 active memberships, many of which are families, putting the club north of 400 players.

Asked what the single most important message, he’d like to convey about the club, to the public, Smith said, “It’s a very family-oriented club, it’s very active, with a relatively low cost to join.”

More information about the Three Village Tennis Club can be found on its website: www.threevillagetennisclub.com.

Shoreham-Wading River girls varsity soccer team looked to build on the success of their 2023 campaign when the Wildcats won another Suffolk County Class A title and Long Island championship. The team advanced to the state championships last November at Cortland High School before losing the Class A final to Rye.

The Wildcats faced off against Bay Shore in Islip High School summer league action Thursday, Aug. 8. It was Ava Gengler’s foot that stretched the net to take the early lead. On a corner kick, Olivia Pesso floated the ball up high in front of the net where Abigail Cooke headed the ball in for the insurance goal. Shoreham-Wading River inked the 2-0 victory in the fourth game of the tournament with two games remaining.

The Wildcats launch their 2024 season with a home opener Sept. 11 when they will host Mount Sinai. Game time is slated for 4:30 p.m.
