Senior pitcher Michele Andrews had a milestone game in her career by throwing a Perfect Game. She retired every batter she faced during the game, striking out 6 batters in 6 innings. Besides receiving terrific defense from the team, she also had the run support. Offensively she had a walk off double in the bottom of the 6th to score the winning run, and finished the day 2-4 with 2 RBI's. Other stand out performances came from Senior Nicole Hagenah, who capped an 8 run inning in the bottom of the 4th with a grand slam home run. She finished 2-3 with 4 RBI's. Junior Sara DiCandia was a home run short of a cycle (1B, 2B, 3B), finishing 3-3. Sophomore Paige Swantek was 3-4 with 3 RBI's. We have started the season off 3-0. |

date, six Commack High School senior girls lacrosse players have
committed to playing at the next level. Amongst a talented class, these
individuals will take their passion to six different college programs,
ranging from Division I to Division III. It is rare to have this many

college level. They all have played lacrosse for many years together and
have one more season to make Commack proud this spring as they will
undoubtedly make 2010 a year to remember. The six individuals are
Frankie Caridi, Adelphi University; Ashley Cook, Cortland; Kelsey Dlugos,
Florida; Jessica Holscher, Oneonta; and Chelsea Intrabartola, Rutgers,
and Melissa Warheit, Quinnipiac. |

Congratulations to Matthew Laks and Alexander Litrel, who recently
qualified for the Junior Olympics in Memphis, Tennessee (cadet division,
sabre) next month AND just made the US Fencing Association's
All-American Academic team
http://usfencing.org/pages/8213 The Junior Olympics Qualifier was a day-long, grueling affair for Matthew and Alec as they attempted to qualify as cadets (under 17 yrs) AND as juniors (U-20) on 1/11/2010. They competed against the best sabres in the Long Island division, and qualified as cadets. Matthew and Alexander Litrel made the first and second academic teams, respectively. In so many ways, these young men represent the true spirit of an IB student, and are great examples of the honorable and hardworking students that Commack encourages. |

Last Friday night, the team also defeated Longwood who has been undefeated the past 2 seasons. The boys have been playing great team basketball and led by captains Anthony Noto, Cameron Kitt, and John Stathis. The team's leading scorer is Paul Maline, and the leading rebounder is John Stathis. Evan LoFranco also contributes heavily in the team's scoring. Team camaraderie, pressure defense, and positive attitudes from the entire team, have helped the team in close games this season.

We beat them 5-2, then played and won the team tournament against Northport seeded ahead of us. Against the 1st seed Westhampton, undefeated, we were neck and neck until the very end when they pulled out the win. Jenna Lazarus and Karen Schaub were divison champs in doubles for the second year in a row. They are All County, All Division and All League, Michelle Graziosi and Olivia Santoro are All Division and All League. Jessica Schmidt, Rosemary Kalonares and Kelly Hall are All League.
