The string of firings, resignations and early retirements at Jordan-Elbridge has caused residents to demand more information from the school board — right down to the minutes.

During the public comments section of the J-E school board’s Dec. 22 meeting, Tory Bush, a senior at J-E, asked the board why meeting minutes hadn’t been posted to the school’s website.

“It is my understanding of the law that the minutes must be posted within two weeks,” Bush said. “We’re publicly ap-proving them tonight and they should be posted after the

meeting,” said school board president Mary Alley.

“You haven’t posted any minutes since the fifth of No-vember — where are all those minutes?” Bush said.

Alley said the minutes were available in the district office and the board would get to posting them online.

Erin Bush, Tory’s mother, requested that the board an-nounce its reasons for mak-

ing corrections to meeting minutes.

“I think that if you’re going to withhold them in order to make corrections, there should be documentation provided as to what exactly is corrected, she said. “Just for transparency reasons.”

Alley said one of the changes was made to give the board’s accurate reasons for going into executive session.

The board decided to look into recording its meetings, with either video or audio equipment.

“We’re keeping minutes but the minutes are very broad-based and a lot of times we’ve been asked to go back and quote very specific detail of those meetings,” board member Connie Drake said. “And I think that personally, if people knew that they were going to be video taped and audio taped that maybe they might handle themselves in a more professional demeanor when they’re addressing people who

On Tuesday Dec. 21, Susan Deegan’s first-grade class at East Hill Elementary School was surprised to see their teacher assistant, Deborah Hendrickson, via Skype on their Pro-methean board.

Hendrickson has been out of school for the preceding six weeks due to surgery. For the past eleven years she has been sewing polar fleece hats for the children in her class at holiday time, and nothing would change that this year.

Hendrickson called into the class

using the online video program, which projected her face on the Pro-methean board. She then read “The Christmas Hat” by A.J. Wood to her first-grade class as her son, Lucas, played elf and delivered the hats to the children.

The Marcellus United Methodist Church hosted its first living nativity pageant, “The Promise,” during its 9:30 a.m. service Sun-day Dec. 19. A cast of about thirty children — playing the roles of Angels, Shepherds, Joseph, Mary and Jesus — led the church family on a journey to Bethlehem to re-member and celebrate the birth of Jesus in a manger.

A goat, two lambs, and a calf provided a greater degree of realism to help ignite the church family’s understanding of what it was like for Jesus to be born into the dif-ficulties of our world in order to rescue us from sin and death.

There were approximately 140 people in attendance.

The pageant was directed by Anne Dorio, the church’s Christian education di-rector, and Sally Bailey, director of music.

Special thanks go to Harry and Beverly

Smith of Bridgeport, who provided the lambs and goat, and to Patrick and Sue O’Hara, who brought the calf.

ing, Dana Anthonson, of Jordan, joked about the Dec. 14 Florida school board shooting, where a gunman opened fire on school board members before taking his own life. No board mem-bers were injured in that incident.

“I was going to come down here and spray paint a big red V on the wall like the guy on the news, but I didn’t think other people would appreciate my humor,” An-thonson said.

Alley stopped him right there.

“That’s not even funny,” she said. “That’s offensive. Mr. Anthonson, you can yield the floor if those kinds of comments continue.”

Alley said threats have been made against school board members — in public session and in anonymous comments on Syracuse.com. She recommended the board look into bring-ing in security for future meetings.

Students ask for Dominick at graduation

Three seniors at J-E — Tory Bush, Kathryn Alonso-Bergevin and Bran-don Vaughn — recently met with Interim Superinten-dent Larry Zacher. They ex-pressed an interest in having Marilyn Dominick — who retired as J-E Superinten-dent in November — hand out diplomas at graduation instead of the district’s fu-ture superintendent.

“My first response was ‘no,’ and why? Because she’s not the superintendent,” Zacher told the Observer. “But then I said to myself, if this is really a student gradu-ation, the students should be involved in planning it.”

Zacher said he wanted to make sure the request was coming down from the ma-jority of the senior class.

“Three people aren’t go-ing to dictate something for 118,” he said. “But if that’s what they want, we put to-gether a student committee, we develop how this gradua-tion ceremony is going to go, and let’s play it out.”

SchoolsDMS Drama Club presents ‘Tom Sawyer’

By Dave TaddeoMCS Public Information

Consultant

The wit and wisdom of Mark Twain came to Aitchison Auditorium Dec. 17 and 18, as the Driver Middle School Drama Club presented the musical production of “Tom Sawyer.”

When an audience at-tends a theatrical perfor-mance they are viewing the finished product — the result of countless hours of work and preparation. Alexandra Novak, a senior at Marcellus, interviewed several Tom Sawyer cast members to discover the “behind the scenes” story for the young actors.

The time of their lives

By Alexandra Novak

Walking into the dimly lit auditorium, I’m imme-diately greeted with the sound of confident voices rehearsing their lengthy lines. Once adjusted to the darkness, the scene occurring on stage comes into focus. The ever-clever Tom Sawyer is conning a queue of his unsuspect-ing cronies out of their “prized possession” for a few strokes of a paint brush. The students appear at ease on the stage, as if acting comes as natural as breathing.

At this point, I’m led to the area where the remaining cast members await their turn. Brushing aside the curtain, I step into a different world.

Here, it’s chaotic; bustling with youthful energy that’s nearly infectious. Wide-eyed seventh and eighth graders stare at me; after all, I’m foreign to their native world of theater. An unseen voice from the stage breaks their gaze and within seconds, the crowd scatters. Before all is lost, I interview Andrew Mur-phy, a seventh grader in the production.

Clad in a black, ging-ham, button-up shirt and suspenders, topped off with a straw hat, Andrew proudly informs me that he plays the “town drunk.” Based on his enthusiastic answer, I can only surmise that this is a distinguished role among the students.

“This is an amazing feeling, being able to work with these guys — they’re an amazing group,” he ex-plains. The sense of com-ing-togetherness tends to be a mutual feeling shared by many of the cast mem-bers. Joe Quigley, a seventh grader portraying the role of Huckleberry Finn, de-scribes his experience as being “hard work, because you have to memorize a

lot of lines, but in the end it will pay off when I hear the audience clapping. We’ve all worked really hard for this; they’re a great group.”

The theater is a melting pot where students from all backgrounds come together. It’s a combined effort that involves the tal-ents of every participating student. When I had first entered the dimly lit au-ditorium, I was confused as to why these students had decided to voluntarily devote hours of their pre-cious time to a school production. I walked out of the dark auditorium into the brightly lit hall-way enlightened by the answers the students had given me. They viewed the countless hours of re-hearsal not as tedious, but as an enriching experience filled with memories and new friendships. Their enthusiasm toward theater had contributed to making this occurrence the time of their lives.

The MCS wrestlers won their first league meet 30-15 over James-ville-DeWitt. In the 103 lb. class, Bill Groeling was pinned. In the 112 lb. class, Tom Etter was pinned. Barry Smith at 120 lbs. pinned his man in the first period which started the Mustangs on the road to victory. In the 133 lb. class, Bernard MacDonald won. In the 138 lb. class, Leonard Mac-Donald outscored his man 3-2 for his victory. Ron Martinez at 145 lbs. won his match and Dick Campbell at 154 lbs. lost but not without a struggle. George Reagan at 165 lbs. tied and Peter Ilacqua wound up the meet winning his match.

The Marcellus Mustangs, co-champions last year with Skaneateles in the AB league, opened their season with a 56-44 victory over Jamesville DeWitt at J-D. The Mus-tangs, picked to repeat as champions were pressed throughout the game by J-D until they opened the game up in the last quarter. 6’5” Tom

Mullen led both teams in the scoring with 26 points on some nifty shooting, netting 8 out of 10 from the field and 10 for 10 from the foul line. Chris Wiles played an outstanding

game on defense for the Mustangs. The next game will be against Liv-erpool.

Christmas season is here, when the lights across Main Street are aglow and the Christmas tree on the Methodist Church lawn is decorated, it makes everyone feel friendlier and happy to see the bright lights on a snowy evening… proud of the people who took the time and effort to put the up the decorations. We have Mr. and Mrs. Bud Flitcroft to thank for the tree and the village crew for the decorating. It would be nice to say that everyone appreciated the efforts of those involved, but, last

week nearly forty bulbs were taken from the tree. Why, you are ask-ing yourself would anyone do this? Are there people in the village that would stoop that low to steal the bulbs from the village tree. Do they need them that bad? The local and State Police are running an ongoing investigation at this time. If you saw anyone around the tree you are to let them know.

Understanding your tax billTo the editor:

In response to concerns regarding the 2011 town/county tax bills, please al-low me the opportunity to help the taxpayers residing in the town of Elbridge (outside the villages) un-derstand the bill. The line item listed on the tax bill as state mandated costs is actually a tax levied by the Onondaga County Legislature. Taxpayers in Elbridge will see their tax bill increase 78 percent for that line item. If you have any questions regarding this outrageous increase, please contact your county legislator or the County Executive. Also I would suggest if the county wish-es to be more transparent, the line item should be identified as a county tax. For other line item tax rates on your bill, includ-ing town government ser-vices and highway, please contact me. Those rates actually decreased.

National security starts at homeTo the editor:

According to De-partment of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, “Homeland security starts with home-town security, and each of us plays a critical role in keeping our country and

communities safe.” The national campaign

called “See Something, Say Something” was devel-oped so that when people observe anything suspi-cious, they report it to law enforcement.

The recent incident where a suspicious pack-age was placed on Route 695 in Camillus should remind us that terrorists can strike anywhere and anytime. The case was placed along the highway in a manner very similar to the way roadside bombs are positioned along the road in Iraq.

Citizens should:- Be alert to unattended

packages.- Be wary of suspicious

behavior.- Take notice of people

wearing inappropriate clothing (bulky, not con-sistent with environment).

- Report anyone tampering with surveil-lance cameras or entering unauthorized areas.

- Alert police when a vehicle doesn’t seem right.

- Notify authorities about someone taking pictures normal tourists wouldn’t take, like photos of doorways, air vents or secure areas.

Law enforcement does a very good job at protect-ing our community, but we need the public’s help. Very often it is the public that is aware and able to stop crime before it hap-pens.

Remember — if the activity, person, package, or incident that you are

reporting is an emergency or requires immediate at-tention, call 911.

Thanks for your patience, supportTo the editor:

What a delightful surprise to find our name on the banner of the paper for Dec. 1: “Home of the Bromka family.”

This idea of posting names is a great idea for building community. That little banner made us feel like someone cares a lot! So may we, please, take the opportunity to thank Eagle Newspapers and our home community of Marcellus. Thank you, neighbors, for your patience and

support as we go about the long process of restoring our new home at 36 South St. It is indeed a great honor to take up residence in a house and grounds of so much history, tradition and grandeur. Many of you have lavished compli-ments on my wife Sondra and myself for our garden-ing and restoration efforts at 2 North St., Marcellus, over the last 30 years. Now as we move back in time to 1838... the work con-tinues! Thank you, Mayor John P. Curtin, for your efforts to place an historic marker sign on the road at 36: “Moses House, Greek Revival 1838.” You can’t imagine what that sign does for us, two people so deeply in love with history and cultural legacy. Some of you already know us for our music, as Bells & Motley Consort, and for our work at building and restoring historic musical instruments. We always look forward to meeting

Lock down your life onlineHow secure is your online identity?On Dec. 11, hackers managed to break into the records

for technology website Gizmodo and the gossip website Gawker (both websites are owned by Gawker Media). The hackers released a database of thousands of users’ e-mail addresses and passwords to the public.

In theory, this would not be too much of a problem for most users — if your account was compromised, at most, the hackers could make a comment on the website under your name.

But if you’re like most people, you use the same pass-word for everything. And that can be dangerous when some websites, like Gawker, are less secure than others.

It isn’t too much of a stretch: If you use the same e-mail address and password on several sites — to check your e-mail, to access online banking, etc. — and someone finds that same password, you could be vulnerable to an attack.

But the fix is easy. Change your passwords from website to website! Don’t use a simple dictionary word, either — sophisticated hackers’ computer programs can try to break into your account with brute force, guessing thou-sands of words at a time.

Google has provided a list of suggestions for password security. For more information, visit google.com/accounts/PasswordHelp.

Tips for creating a secure passwordinclude punctuation marks and/or numbers.Mix capital and lowercase letters.include similar looking substitutions, such as the number

zero for the letter ‘O’ or ‘$’ for the letter ‘S’.Create a unique acronym.include phonetic replacements, such as ‘luv 2 laf’ for

‘love to laugh’.

Things to avoidDon’t use a password that contains personal information

(name, birth date, etc.)Don’t use words or acronyms that can be found in a

dictionary.Don’t use keyboard patterns (asdf) or sequential num-

bers (1234).Don’t make your password all numbers, uppercase letters

or lowercase letters.Don’t use repeating characters (aa11).

Tips for keeping your password secureNever tell your password to anyone.Never send your password by email.Periodically test your current password and change it to

a new one.

By Phil Blackwell pblackwell@cnylink.com

Getting a big victory within the OHSL Liberty division, the Jordan-Elbridge wres-tling team hosted Cazenovia last Wednesday night and put together a 42-31 victory over the Mustangs.

What made the difference was the Eagles winning four consecutive matches, starting at 145 pounds, when Joe Mills beat Bob Louis through a disqualification.

In short order, Mitch Cooper (152 pounds) earned a 19-3 technical fall over Bart Korykowski, Eric Gross (160 pounds) pinned Anthony Randino late in the second period and Andy Chambers (171 pounds) took 2:20 to finish off Oliver Posewitz.

Trevor Pettitt (125 pounds) and Dakota Riggleman (215 pounds) took forfeits. In

a fiercely competitive 112-pound match, Mitch Alpha beat Dale Petroff 9-3, with Joe Mills emerging at 135 pounds to shut out Mike Nourse 13-0.

A night earlier, Marcellus hosted Her-kimer and, in this non-league meet, picked up a 53-21 victory over the Magicians.

Ryan Long, at 152, pinned Codi Johnston in 2:34 and Grady Ryan (160) finished off Joe Aiello in 49 seconds.

John Cavaretta had the toughest win, at 189, edging Terrance Oldfield 4-3 as Andrew Eberle (140) beat Spencer Hawes 11-4 and Zach Ruggles, at 96, earned a 16-0 technical fall over Ryan Zawtocki.

Otherwise, all the points came from for-feits as Mike Perry (103), Keith McIntosh (135), Matt Dempsey (145), Kyle Tierney (171) and David Brever (215) all won with-out having to take the mat.

Opponents quite new and quite familiar marked the West Genesee ice hockey team’s passage toward the holiday break, and both of them were handled – but not without some conster-nation.

The main event involved the 5-1 Wildcats hosting long-time Division I rival Ithaca (who was off to a 3-0 start) Wednesday in front of the usual packed crowd at Shove Park in Camillus.

As with so many of their meetings in the past, the de-fenses would dominate– and nothing got settled, as WG and Ithaca played to a 1-1 tie.

Bruising, physical play marked the first two periods. Still, the Wildcats spent most of the time in the Little Red’s end of the ice, trying to move

ahead.Every time, though, Itha-

ca goaltender Cooper Belyea stoned them, keeping the game 0-0 as it drifted toward the third period.

Finally, the Wildcats con-verted, Rob Michel find-ing the net off feeds from Nick Holzhauer and Shawn Lynch, but Ithaca’s Willis Doerr landed a goal, too.

So they went to over-time and, once more, Belyea proved spectacular, finish-ing up with 35 saves for the night, more than three times the total of WG counterpart Jacob Pelton.

In the Wildcats’ game against Central Square last Monday at Cicero Twin Rinks, the game remained even until the third period, when WG got away and beat the Red Hawks 4-0.

Central Square is still a fledgling varsity program, and got moved up to Divi-sion I this winter. The Red

Hawks were 0-2, but well-rested, having not played in more than a week.

WG, meanwhile, was in its fourth game in seven days, and perhaps the fatigue showed as, through the first two periods, it could not get anything on the board against Central Square despite a full barrage of shots. Red Hawks goalie Cory Gosslaux had an active outing, eventually getting 44 saves.

Somehow, the Wildcats stayed patient and, in the third period, finally got on the board. Lynch, Holzhauer and Nick Kurz each had one goal and one assist to lead the push as Jason Keyes also converted. Matt Skrupa and Jimmy Sauda earned one as-sist apiece.

WG (5-1-1) heads north this week, playing Tuesday and Wednesday in a tourna-ment in Massena. League play resumes Jan. 7 against Hamilton at Shove Park.

Having lost each of its first three match-es, the West Genesee boys bowling team needed to turn things around – and Justin Ingram helped in that cause.

Ingram led the Wildcats to a 2-1 victory over Henninger last Monday afternoon by posting a season-best 714 series, which in-cluded a high game of 264. Eric Hensberry led the Black Knights with a three-game total of 633.

WG’s girls team lost to Henninger 3-0, even though Beth Piston had, by far, the best individual total, working her way to a 602 series, with a 213 high game.

Each of the Wildcat teams lost Tuesday to Utica Proctor by similar 3-0 margins, though Ingram shot a 647 series and Justin Lewandowski had a 644 set for WG’s boys side. Piston shot a three-game total of 537 in the girls match.

Tougher challenges lie ahead for the West Gen-esee boys basketball team, especially its short trip to Bishop Ludden for this week’s Rosemary Corcoran Holiday Classic.

So it was important for the Wildcats to gain confi-dence in December – and it has, moving to 4-0 on the season last Tuesday night by venturing north and beating

Watertown 65-43.More than anything else,

it was the Wildcats’ defense that won this affair. The Cy-clones could do little in the first half as WG held them to a handful of baskets, turn-ing mistakes into points on the other end and steadily building a 35-12 edge.

Watertown did play bet-ter in the second half, but it was too late – especially with Eric Spencer on fire. All Spencer did was set a new career mark with 30 points, dominating inside as he

converted 13 field goals and four free throws.

Spencer didn’t need much help – but got it anyway, as Brian Burns finished with 11 points and Greg Wadach contributed eight points.

WG would play its first CNY Counties League op-ponent, Liverpool (coached by former Wildcats boss Jerry Wilcox) in Monday night’s opening round at Bishop Ludden, then would meet the Gaelic Knights or Onondaga on Tuesday.

Solvay played three close sets against Phoenix in last Monday’s match – but could not win any of them in a 27-25, 25-23, 25-23 defeat to the Firebirds.

All the key points at the end of those sets favored Phoenix, negating Cassidy Tanzella’s effort as she got nine kills, three digs and two blocks. Michelle Slowik added six kills, with Alexis Bandera earning seven assists. Gabby Santoferrara had five assists and six digs, with Ashley Colley also earning six assists.

The Bearcats would recover on Wednesday, beating Hannibal in four sets. It won the opener 25-19 and lost the second set 25-21, but beat the Warriors 26-24 in a pivotal third set and roared through the fourth set 25-15.

Kelsey Fancemone piled up eight aces and 14 digs. Tanzella and Kyndra Jackson each had 10 kills, with Slowik

again earning six kills. Santoferrara earned nine assists, eight digs and four aces as Bandera added five assists and Jenna Poplowski gained six digs.

And Jordan-Elbridge lost in three sets to Cato-Meridian 26-24, 25-18, 25-21. Katie Byrnes led the Eagles with six kills, with Liz Jorolemon add-ing fivek ills. Jessica Somes had four kills, four aces and three digs as Mal-lory Snyder fed them with 13 assists.

Marcellus Senior High School accepts ‘Rachel’s Challenge’

dave Taddeo

Students at Marcellus signed this banner to show their committment to “Rachel’s Challenge.”

By Dave TaddeoMCS Public Info Consultant

“I want to start a chain reaction of kindness that ripples around the world.” Those words were found in the diary of Rachel Scott, the first person killed in the Columbine High School tragedy to April 20, 1999.

After Rachel’s tragic death, her father, Darrell Scott, began the Rachel’s Challenge initiative to help actualize Rachel’s goal.

The Rachel’s Challenge initiative came to Marcellus Senior High School on Dec. 16 for a day of intense and meaningful assembly programs and training workshops. The mission of the Rachel’s Challenge program is to “in-

spire, equip and empower every person to create perma-nent, positive, cultural change in their school, business and community by starting a chain reaction of kindness and compassion.”

Colleen Kirk, from Rachel’s Challenge, led the Marcel-lus visit, which included two assembly programs meant to create the desire to spread kindness and a training workshop designed to provide the means.

The program featured powerful Columbine video foot-age, interviews with families and friends, and visionary excerpts from Rachel’s six diaries. Kirk urged the audience to accept the five challenges that reflect the vision of Rachel Scott – eliminate prejudice, dare to dream, choose positive influences, start a chain reaction of kindness and tell all

those that you love what they mean to you.More than 65 students attended the afternoon train-

ing session and vowed to accept Rachel’s five challenges. Interested students along with members of Students Against Destructive Decisions, the Character Education committee, Student Government and Teen Institute have combined to form the Friends of Rachel club, which will focus on spreading kindness.

Kirk shared a drawing of a hand drawn by Rachel as a young teen, which held these words: “These hands belong to Rachel Scott, and will someday touch millions of people.”

Volleyball From page 5

By Bonnie Russell

Jennifer Fura and her son, Scotty Fura, were invited to speak to the Girls Varsity and Junior Varsity Basketball teams about never giving up. The two have worked together to write a book, “Scotty’s Way”. It is both inspiring and motivational. This story shares the remarkable journey of a 7-year-old boy as he learns to navigate and be successful in his daily activities, despite a physical l imitat ion. Scotty lost his right arm in an accident when he was 2-years-old and must now find his own way to accomplish his goals. His strong will, determination and uplifting spirit were

so prevalent that Jennifer wanted to share his story in the hopes that it could possibly touch or encourage

others in their pursuit of success. With Scotty’s “never give up” attitude, anything is possible.

Helen P. Kennedy, 91Former J-e teacher/library aide

Helen Peterson Kennedy, 91, long-time resident of Camillus went to be with her Lord early Thursday morning Dec. 16, 2010, at the Syracuse Home, Baldwins-ville.

She had been bed-ridden since suffer-ing a stroke in 2008. Helen lived at her residence on Bennetts Corners Road- the home where she was born- for most of her life. Helen was the daughter of the late Charles and Hazel Peterson. After graduat-ing from Warner High School in 1937 and CCBI in 1939, she then graduated from SU in 1945. She was a teacher/library aide at Jordan-Elbridge High School for 18 1/2 years when she retired in 1992. Helen was an active member of the First Baptist Church in Memphis, NY.

In additions to her parents, Helen was predeceased by her husband of 48 years, Neil D. Kennedy in 1994, her brother Charles Peterson Jr. in 2008 and her grand-son Jason in 1992.

She is survived by her two children, Rev. N. Craig (Elaine) Kennedy of Manila, Philippines and daughter Karen J. (Eugene) Brock of Camillus along with five grand-children and seven great-grandchildren.

Calling hours: 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Wednes-day Dec. 22 at the Bush Funeral Home 120 E. Main St. (Rt. 5) Elbridge. A Celebration of Life service: 11 a.m. Thursday Dec. 23 at First Baptist Church, Memphis. Burial will be in Greenlawn Memorial Park Cem-etery.

Obituaries

quarter with the Mustangs on top 17-14. In the second quarter, the Mustangs broke loose. They outscored the Lancers 24-7 for a 41-21 lead at halftime. Scoring in the third quarter was close with Liver-pool netting 15 points and Marcellus 14 but the Mustang lead was never threat-ened. After 2 minutes and 10 seconds of the fourth period, the Liverpool coach or-dered his players off of the court and did not return. This incident happened after one of their players was called for an in-tentional foul for throwing an elbow into Mustang, Joe Norman, who was on the floor. They had both dove for a loose ball. When the Liverpool coach came onto the floor to protest the call, he was hit with a technical foul by the referees. He then took his team to the locker room and did

not return to finish the game. This will be one game that will be remembered for a long time. This was truly no way to show sportsmanship to his team. Tom Mullen made good on both technical shots for the final score. John Parry, Tom Mullen and Dave Driver led the Mustang scoring with 15, 14 and 13 respectively.

The Mustang J-V’s beat Liverpool 31-23 with Neal Weeks scoring 15 points.

A person must be big enough to admit their mistakes, smart enough to benefit from them and strong enough to correct them.

Miss Judy Patrick, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Patrick of Flower Lane and Miss Linda Nonemaker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Nonemaker of W. Main Street have been named to the Honor Roll at Central City Business Institute for the past term.

J-E girls stop Onondaga, move to 3-0By Phil Blackwell

For a moment, the Jordan-Elbridge girls basketball team stepped outside the OHSL Liberty division boundaries – but that did not make things easier.

The Eagles went to Onondaga last Tuesday night and, mostly thanks to a fine defensive effort, worked its way to a

51-39 victory over the Tigers to improve its mark to 3-0.J-E was shaky on the offensive side in the first quarter,

managing just nine points. As the points picked up in the middle stages, so did the defense – especially in the third period, when it held OCS to five points.

By that point, the Eagles led 39-18, and could afford to relax. Kali Davis continued to excel, her season-best 21

points including both of J-E’s 3-pointers as she made the Tigers pay for surrounding Molly Hourigan.

Of course, Hourigan still had 11 points as Grace Dungey and Kelsey Richardson got six points apiece. J-E will go to this week’s Marcellus Christmas Tournament in the hopes of staying undefeated entering 2011.

I am a 57 year old man with a developmental disability looking for someone to share my

home with in the Syracuse area.I am kind, caring, considerate and easy going. I am seeking friendship and support. I like to keep busy by doing different things in the community. I

enjoy bowling, miniature golf, attending SU sporting events, and WWE Wrestling. I have support people

who assist me to live independently. The person that will share my home will be well established in their own life, caring, and compassionate. In return for

your friendship and support, I can offer free rent and utilities. You would be expected to contribute

to all other household expenses. This is a great and unique opportunity for the right person.

If you think that this might be you, please contact Colleen at 488-2723, colleenm@oclinc.org
