With both teams with three games under their belt, the Bulls of Smithtown West hosted the Centereach Cougars Thursday afternoon, Sept. 12, in a league matchup where a single goal would be the difference.

With three minutes left in the opening half, Smithtown West senior Jake Hutter dished off the ball to sophomore Tony Garcia who drilled the ball into the back of the net to edge ahead 1-0, a score that would make the final buzzer. 

Both goalies Jerry Nagosky (Bulls) and Thomas Zwirblis (Cougars) had two saves apiece.

The Bulls had another 1-0 victory — at East Islip — Monday, Sept. 16, taking them to 5-0 atop League V. On the same day, the Cougars won 3-1 at West Islip for a 2-1-2 league start.

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.
