1. Nugent Stadium, Rye
From a first-class playing field to some of its iconic surroundings, Nugent Stadium in Rye might be the best place to catch a game—spring or fall. As with so many of the new turf fields that were constructed over the past decade or so, Nugent can handle just about any type of athletic contest, and often will host three varsity competitions on a Saturday afternoon.

 Youth baseball staple bestowed first-pitch honor
If there’s one thing that Al Tarcinale hates, it’s when his age gets misreported. The Scarsdale resident has been on this earth for nearly a century, but heaven forbid someone mistakenly reports that the longtime baseball man is 99 years old. As Tarcinale himself states, that just simply isn’t the case.
He’s 99 years young.

World Cup attracts youth to Rye’s KinderKickers program
Two decades ago, Summit Soccer Camp opened its doors in Larchmont as a place for area youths to hone their skills before the fall season. But at the camp’s inception, co-founder Michael Constantine had little idea that all these years later Summit Soccer would still be alive and – quite literally - kicking.

1. Lia Bellizzi, Tatiana Saunders – Rye Girls Soccer
Either one of these girls could have warranted their own section – together they make Rye’s soccer team an instant contender for the Section I title. What’s interesting is how both Bellizzi and Saunders bring different skill sets to the game. |

1. Girls Lacrosse: Mamaroneck @ Bronxville – 9/14, 4:15 p.m.
Sometimes sports fans have to wait a couple of weeks for an exciting matchup to present itself: That’s certainly not the case here. The season opener for both squads pits two reigning Section I champs against one another in what should prove to be a barnburner.
Of course, the rosters have partially turned over and some faces may have changed, but both Mamaroneck and Bronxville have been in-section powers for the past few years. Plus, it will be interesting to see how Bronxville’s athleticism is met by the perennially staunch Tiger defense. |
