Final Four Action

3/18/07 - Mr. Breault had his camera with him over the weekend and took some great shots of the team in the Glens Falls arena.  Thanks Mr. B.  Pictures

Please remember that I will be making one page in the yearbook commemorating the Final Four weekend.  Send in your photos soon.

• Links Of Interest:  Since I will not be at the game I decided to see what information and pictures I could find from the weekend.  I will post news stories, videos and more.  If you see something I can post for all to share, then send it in. Also, if you have any great pictures send them in.  I saved a yearbook page just in case.  
• The Press Republican weighs in with a story about the tough loss in their Sunday edition.
• This article from this Saturday morning's Press Republican has a few pictures.  
• The Daily Star has an article lamenting the Davenport loss but gives credit to the Bulldogs tenacious defense.  
• The Press & Sun Bulletin has a story about the team.  No pictures but a nice write up.  
• PostStar.com writes about the strategy the Bulldogs used to win.  There are a few pictures. 
• I found this video highlight from the game.  There are also some links to the Malone game as well.
• Capital News 9 has an article and video featuring interviews with some of the Bulldog parents.  Fun stuff!
• NortCountrySports.net has stories and pictures from the big game. The photo on the right is from their web site taken by Kyle Coryea.  Read the entire story there and thank them for the live audio feed.  Maybe next year they will cover even more games.

Brad Dumont drives to the net in the Bulldog win Friday morning in Glens Falls.

• PostStar.com lists players to watch in the tournament.  Scroll down through to article to see a spotlight on Junior Zach Peck.
• Here's a story I found sizing up the two teams before they faced off Friday.  There are few quotes from Coach Boyea.
• Press Republican Article from Friday before the game.

• The above graphic is from the website of the official home of the high school tournament.  Heading to the Final Four?  Need tickets?  Directions?  Check out THIS SITE for more information. (Or HERE) - Weekend schedule can be found HERE - 
• Here is a list of links of interest for high school basketball.  I suspect Chateaugay will get covered in a bunch of stories in and around the Glens Falls area.  Pick up a newspaper or two when you are there for your scrapbook.

• North Country Sports.net is planning to post an audio stream of Friday's game.  The Chateaugay Teacher's Union has paid to become a sponsor for this service.  This is similar to the game broadcast earlier this year when Chateaugay played Brushton-Moira.  I am not sure how much traffic this site can handle but it is certainly worth a try.

• I received word that that Poststar.com will be covering the game as well.  A message sent to me claims that there will be live updates during the game with some post game interviews.  I am not familiar with this site but it may be worth a look.  

• CCS Varsity Boys' team wins back to back games to earn a trip to the final four...more - (Press Republican article) - I think they will have more information over the weekend.  

• I heard today that the championship game may be on TV Saturday.  The cable channel that carries the Syracuse games my show the game.  I think it is channel 26 for those with cable.  I am not sure what this means for satellite folks.  Check this link for more information.  

• An alert fan sent me this link of a video about the team the boys will play Friday (thanks B.J.)  clip

• It is possible that WICY will be broadcasting the game but I do not have confirmation yet.  If I get something more concrete I will let you know.  Their Varsity Girls will be there so there is a chance they will pick up this game as well.

10/18/06 - Ms. Fregoe volunteered to take pictures at last Friday's away game in Madrid Waddington.  It was a thrilling Lady Bulldog soccer game that saw our girls come from a 1-0 deficit after the first period to win 3-1.  Thanks Ms. Fregoe for the many wonderful shots of the away game.  Playoffs are on their way and we all wish the best for both varsity soccer teams as well as the volleyball team.  Pictures

10/11/06 - As promised...a few modified pictures from both teams.  They traveled to Malone this afternoon and put together another sweep.  The boys won 3-0 and when I left the ladies were also looking at a shut-out.  I was in the middle of both fields trying to capture the action.  It seemed like I was always watching the wrong field.  The wind whipped around the field making it difficult to control the ball.  Pictures

10/11/06 - More youth soccer pictures means more indication that the Varsity programs will be in great shape for years to come.  We have shots from the 7-8 year old division as well as the 9-10 year old group.  There are some team pictures here as well. Thanks to the Cowan family for the images.  Pictures

10/10/06- Another easy afternoon for the Lady Bulldogs.  When I left they were up 4-0 and the ball rarely went past midfield.  The ladies were pounding the defense all afternoon. They look great heading into the playoff season.  Sorry modified girls...but I expect to catch up with you at the Malone game tomorrow.  Pictures

10/7/06 - It was sunny and warm for a change Saturday morning as two undefeated 9-10 year old soccer teams hit the field in Chateaugay.  The best part was that both teams were from Chateaugay.   The match pitted classmate against classmate and friend against friend.  It was a well played game with a lot of excitement.  I was waiting for this match up to take pictures since every child in the photos would be from CCS.  In the end one team had to win and it was the kids in blue by a score of 2-0.  Great game kids.  Here is a large batch of pictures.  I know I did not get everyone in but I followed the ball and got quite a few.  As always, if you have pictures to share, send them in.  Pictures

10/5/06 - It took only a few minutes before the first of many goals were scored this afternoon.  The Lady Bulldogs beat the visiting St. Regis Falls teams in modified and varsity action. When I left the varsity team was up 5-0 and looked to slip in a few more.  I lost count in in the modified game after the 6th goal.  The teams look for a bit of rest over the long weekend.  I managed to squeeze in a few pictures.  This file is a bit large and I hope there is something here for everyone.  Pictures

10/5/06 - It was a tough night for the Varsity Volleyball team as they faces Massena and suffered the first loss of the season.  I was there for the first game and can attest to how tough the opponents were.  Every time either team made a mistake the other team capitalized on that mistake.  Both teams played well.  Those who do not think that the sports needs athleticism should have been in the gym last night.  I did manage to grab a few shots.  Enjoy.  Pictures

9/25/06 - I have a simple request.  A soccer game where the weather is nice and warm.  I know there have been a few of those but lately the wind and rain have taken their toll.  Today the modified boys tied 1-1 and when I left the varsity team was headed to overtime. I have a few pictures from each of the games.  Tonight was hard.  It seemed like every time I switched from one field to another the action was on the opposite side.  The games were exciting.  Pictures

9/25/06 - I was sent another batch of pictures of Chateaugay Youth Soccer.  From what I hear the youth teams are doing very well this year.  Thanks to the LaBombard family for these snapshots.  Pictures

9/22/06 - Another batch of photos from Emily Jackson, my new intrepid roving photographer.  She was able to get a few pictures from last night's victory.  Thanks Emily, and to all who have been picking up the slack with picture.  There are a number of home games coming soon and I should be at those. Pictures

9/21/06 - Once again this year the CCS volleyball teams are enjoying much success. This week they beat Brushton-Moira in straight sets.  Both teams remain undefeated this year and the varsity squad looks strong enough to take the Section X title again.  Emily Jackson was on hand to take some snapshots from the games and I was able to watch a few minutes of the JV game.  Thanks Emily.  Emily's Pictures - More Pictures

9/11/06 - Another sweep for CCS soccer.  This time the Modified team won their Monday afternoon games against Franklin Academy.  The ladies won 2-1 and the boys shut-out their opponents 4-0.  I was able to get a few pictures before the battery died on my camera and I admittedly have a few more shots of the guys than the girls, but I will make it up soon.  For now enjoy the pictures of the two big rival wins. Pictures

9/15/05 - Brooke Mc Donald borrowed a camera for a volleyball road trip to Canton.  The girls continued their winning ways in Canton.  As many of you know the volleyball season was moved to the fall this year and is competing with soccer.  Thanks for the picture Brooke.  Pictures

9/11/06 - I received a few email messages with pictures from some recent youth soccer games.  It is great to see all the talent that will make it's way to the ranks of the modified and varsity teams.  Thanks to the mystery submitter.  Pictures

9/11/06 - Emily Jackson borrowed a camera for last Friday's soccer game.  It was an exciting 2-0 win in overtime for the Varsity Boys.  Please feel free to borrow a camera for any of the games.  Thanks Emily.  Now stay away from Amanda. Pictures

9/8/06 - Sweeping F.A. - Both varsity soccer teams won their games Friday night.  The boys won 2-0 in overtime and the girls beat the Huskies on their own turf decisively 6-2.  I was able to catch some of the home game before I went to a 9&10 year old game in Malone where the future of Bulldog soccer beat the future of Malone soccer 2-1.  I think Bulldog soccer has a great future.  I do have some good shots from the boy's game.  More than ever I will need help with the other games especially since Volleyball is going on now as well.  Let me know if you can help.  Pictures

9/7/06 - I have a neat file for your consideration.  The Spoor family sent me a short video clip/music video from a recent Varsity Boys Soccer game.  The file has highlights, cool special effects and more.  I love it and I know you will as well.  You can choose from 3 options.  Let me know if you have any problems loading the movie clips.
