The Shoreham-Wading River field hockey squad tore open their season with 10 consecutive wins but stumbled in a road game against Harborfields, losing to the Tornadoes 2-1, Sept. 30. 

The Wildcats wasted no time in clawing back to their winning ways with a home game against Eastport-South Manor (9-2) Monday night, Oct. 7. The Sharks struck first with two minutes remaining in the opening quarter but sophomore forward Madison Herr answered back 30 seconds later to make it a new game.

Senior midfielder Ellie Arena rocked the box with six minutes left in the first half off an assist by Marisa Cacciola for the Wildcats to take a 2-1 lead, a score that would make the final buzzer.

The win lifts the Wildcats to 11-1 in a three-way tie along with Miller Place and Bayport-Blue Point atop the Division II leaderboard.

The Port Jefferson girls volleyball team, defending Long Island champions, have picked up where they left off last season. Winning. Through 10 games, the Lady Royals are undefeated but what’s remarkable is in all of these games — the best of five sets — the Royals have swept all of their opponents 3-0, not having lost a single set.

Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 8, was no different when Port Jeff hosted Southampton in a League VII matchup. Despite falling behind in two of those sets, the Royals swept the Mariners, who were on a six-game winning streak, 25-19, 25-18, 25-13.

Ava Reilly the sophomore, has been the cornerstone of the Royals success doing what she’s done all season long leading her team in assists with 30. McKayla Pollard recorded 16 kills along with seven digs and Thea Mangels notched four service aces. Bianca Nakagawa inked seven kills and Lina DeLeo killed six along with eight digs. Hannah Pflaster, the libero, spent a lot of time on the deck, digging out 11.

The win lifts the Royals to 11-0 with five games remaining before postseason play begins.

The Ward Melville boys volleyball squad is on a hot streak with an undefeated record. The Patriots, the defending Long Island champions from last season, looked to put up another “W” when they hosted Westhampton, Thursday, Sept. 26. 

Returning outside hitter, senior Kyle Fagan, had a potent one-two punch with a vicious serve, coupled with a dominating performance at the net, that provided the spark for the Patriot offense.

Ward Melville looked a little unsteady in the first set, but despite falling behind in the third set, they ended up sweeping the Hurricanes 25-21, 25-16 and 25-15, for the victory. The Patriots followed up with a 3-1 win at Connetquot, Sept. 28, and stand at 7-0 in Division I.

The Miller Place Panthers rained on Port Jeff’s homecoming football game under a persistent drizzle, shutting out the Royals 41-0 in the League IV matchup on Saturday afternoon, Sept. 28. 

Port Jeff (0-2) struggled offensively against a stout Panther defense and failed to gain any traction, searching for that first elusive win in this early season.

Miller Place quarterback Shane Kiernan and wide receiver Ethan Monaco were a potent combination, scoring on a 32-yard pass play and 60-yarder for the win. Kiernan passed for 202 yards, completing nine of 11 passes, during the afternoon.

The win lifts the Panthers to 2-1 and they will travel to Babylon, Saturday, Oct. 5, with a 6 p.m. kickoff scheduled.

The Royals are also back in action on Saturday, with a road game against Southampton. Game time is slated for 2 p.m.

The Newfield boys soccer squad, having won their last three games picking off North Babylon, Bay Shore and Lindenhurst, looked to make it four in a row in a nonleague matchup with Connetquot at home Monday afternoon, Sept. 23. 

After a scoreless first half, Connetquot struck first midway through the second half to break the ice but the Wolverines co-captain Eli Rubio’s shot found the back of the net two minutes later to make it a new game. With both teams deadlocked at 1-1, time expired in regulation forcing the first of two overtime periods. 

After an unproductive first overtime period, it was a Connetquot goal that snatched the victory, 2-1, from the Wolverines.

Newfield will look to get back to their winning ways with a road game against Commack on Friday, Sept. 27. Game time is slated for 4:30 p.m.

The reigning Long Island champion and New York State semifinalist, the Lady Wildcats of Shoreham-Wading River, made it four in a row Saturday morning, Sept. 21, with a road game against Elwood-John Glenn with a 2-0 shutout in a League VII matchup.

Olivia Pesso, a junior who took up soccer just last season scored the icebreaker at the 22-minute mark of the second half to put the Wildcats ahead. Mia Mangano’s foot spoke two minutes later when the junior drove the ball into the back of the net on a penalty kick for the insurance goal.

Shoreham-Wading River goalie Morgan Lesiewicz made 10 stops in net.

The Wildcats traveled to Southampton Tuesday, Sept. 24, and continued their winning streak by easily beating the Mariners, 5-0.

It was a battle of the unbeatens Thursday afternoon, Sept. 19, between defending Long Island champions Port Jefferson Royals and Center Moriches Red Devils.

Although losing several key seniors to graduation from their 2023 Long Island championship season, it didn’t seem to matter when the Royals attacked with vicious serves and several monster digs. There were 34 kills at the net to sweep the match, 25-19, 25-18, 25-14. 

Sophomore Ava Reilly was the cornerstone of the offense with 28 assists, nine digs a kill and an ace. McKayla Pollard notched 15 kills to go with six digs, along with sophomores Thea Mangels who killed six, had a dig and a service ace and Lina DeLeo who had seven digs, two aces and five kills at the net. The quartet was a potent combination throughout in dominating the play at the net. 

The win lifted the Royals to the top of the League VII leaderboard. 

The team continued its impressive form with 3-0 victories over Greenport/Southold, Sept. 21, and Shelter Island, Sept. 23, for a 7-0 record to date.
