If you haven’t seen them already I wrote a notebook on the quick rebuilding process Somers went through. For Rockland it talks about the success Matt Panebianco has had this season. My last notebook talks about the determination of the Dobbs Ferry team.
On the girls’ side, Matt Ng wrote about the Tappan Zee’s success so far this season. In Westchester/Putnam his article is about the incredible season Ursuline’s Katie Sullivan has had.

Dan Marra began working for the Journal News this past September. He graduated from Manhattan College in 2004 and from John F. Kennedy High School in 2000. While at Kennedy, he ran cross-country and track. He is excited to be covering the sport that he participated in throughout his four years in high school. Dan loves all sports, but has, what some may say, an unhealthy obsession with the New York Giants.
Matthew Ng has been with Varsity Central and The Journal News sports department for the past two years handling high school beats such as skiing, bowling, girls soccer and tennis. Ng is a 2004 graduate of Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School with his major in broadcast journalism.
Casey Tolfree spent her high school career playing Section 1 sports at Dobbs Ferry and is excited to have the opportunity to cover them for the Journal News. After graduating from St. John's University, Casey joined the Journal News staff in December 2007 and has covered a variety of sports including basketball, softball, and volleyball.
A few corrections. Dobbs coach is John-Paul Kaminski, we already have way too many Patricks on the Eagles. Also Somers has been winning the Class A titles, not Class B, where Pearl River and Byram Hills have been duking it out.
The Tuskers’ return to strength after losing their great 5 seniors from last year has indeed been impressive. I thought that Class C Dobbs would beat Class A Somers in the Big Red this year fairly easily since they had lost so much, but the big schools can reload pretty quickly. With Gurecki and Hashmall providing a strong base to pull the younger runners up, the Tuskers are within shouting distance of Fox Lane and Brewster. Should be a good Sectional matchup.
