Although weather was once again a major factor, the Braves gave it their all. Unlike the scorching heat of the past weeks, this time, the Braves had to contend with drizzle and high humidity - not exactly football weather. But through it all, they played with spirit. Here's what happened... It was another tough loss for the Peanuts, Bethpage scored 14 to Syossets' 7. Kent Sato scored the only touchdown, but the Peanuts were down by the goal line 3 times during the game. All of the boys played great. The offense was led down the field by quarterback Joseph Doria III and the great blocking of John Harris. Our defense was led by the great tackling of Johnny Maccerone and Johnnie Rebuth. Although the Peanut team does not have a win yet, they get better every week. "They are all winners in my eyes." said head coach Joe Doria.

"Hammertime" for Pony Black! Pony Black destroyed Valley Stream 47 to 12 on Sunday and while it was certainly a team effort as everyone saw a lot of playing time, one player stood out -- Travis Hammer. He hit the trifecta, converted a hat trick and did something on the field that has not been done in Syosset Football history. He successfully kicked each field goal that he attempted for extra points after multiple touchdowns; he ran for a touchdown, and then he not only had one interception, he had two! No surprise that his teammates have decided to nickname him "MC."

In addition to Hammer, Robert Speranza also scored; in fact, he scored three touchdowns to be exact. Vincent Speranza and Perry Lehrhoff scored touchdowns, as well! While the offense had a great day, the defense was also on fire with significant contributions made by Cody Miller, Matthew Kahl and Matthew and Anthony Costa
