It is truly a conflict of interest and should not be allowed in hs. Let this daddy coach step down as it sounds like the kid will be fine. I know the name. Points closer to 60 but who's counting. Obv there are people on both sides of issue but no one can deny that a parent has no place in hs sports

In our town, we would NEVER want a pro coach coming around, with all of those amazing players in tow, scoring all kinds of crazy goals, and making huge plays. We would talk mad smack about the guy, and be hugely, insanely jealous of how mediocre our kids are in comparison to those that work hard all year long. That's just OUR way, where we are from. Rather than express our desire to be more fair regarding play time, in exchange for a good record, we would cast hate his way. We would allow our bitterness to show as envy, even if he was a genuinely nice guy.

If a daddy coach puts his kid in a spot, and the freshman (oops) delivers what most seniors cannot, then why not concede that he did well? Oh, no, can't do that. It wasn't little Seymour.

Sorry to hear your situation. Unfortunately you are not the only district and it is not only travel teams, but happens with summer teams run by high school coaches as well. Would love to learn more about the lawsuit and the conflict of interest between summer ball and school ball. You need to have a strong AD that has integrity and can address the issue when such a conflict exists. Most just turn a blind eye. It is sad that politicking has taken over all sports and no one has to earn their spot anymore on their own merit and not daddy or mommy's connections. I wish you luck but unfortunately it is an uphill battle you are climbing.


70 points doesn't warrant your shutting up, you jealous person?


I sympathize with you. We have the same politics in our town but at least the dad does not coach the team. What does 70 points have to do with anything. As if the wrongs are made right bc of 70 points. It's time to get the politics out of hs sports . and a parent coach has no place on a hs team See the thread about summer conflicts


I am not a fan of the man but

Are you serious? What does 70 points have to do with it!?! - EVERYTHING. That is a very good number. Are those with D1 commitments better than the supposed Daddy coach's son. How many points did those D1 commits get LY. What does politics have to do with it!?!... everything and that is life. I find it hard to believe those who lost their spot didn't politic for this. I also find it hard to believe those that didn't lose there spot did politics for things either. Life is politicking to better yourself.

of course opinion comes into play here, but come on you didn't see this coming.

All I can say is, that town team will be very strong if he continues to push those boys to 91.


Re-read what you wrote and then ask yourself - is this a conflict of interest? How about teachers who say you must hire me as your tutor if you want an A in my class? Is that any different?

Or, rather than the teacher saying that you "MUST" hire me, they say, "You SHOULD hire me because I am far superior than the alternatives, as my track record has proven". In the case of the latter, it is a no brainer.

Smithtown West all-americans not on travel teams!
Smithtown west is an exception, just as there are a few others. Most school districts have not had the policy in place, where they restrict participation with outside travel clubs, for long enough to feel/ field the results. Most of us middle of the road towns applaud SWest, and the others, and even spectate at their games. Until our school commits to fielding fantastic coaching and year round training, my freshman will have to return coaches calls received through his travel coach.

as i understand it you are missing an important element - the dad/coach is also an owner of a pay for play summer team and that some people might feel that kids that pay to play on his team have an unfair advantage on the public high school team.

What about East. They beat West in league play and are now off to Suffolk A Championship, yet people still just talk about West. Guess that will change now!

Oh my gosh, you don't even try to hide your weird crazy napeleonic way! The discussion involved S West's kids at all-American status. You sound strangely unstable. You have done well, now back to the issue.....

If you choose, see it as a challenge, and have your dweeb (or boy) train harder, to be viable competition.

The starting line up at HHH HSW has TWO kids who play on team 91. One defense and one midfielder. There are more on the bench that never see the field unless they are in a situation to put in those kids. So "paying to play" on his team or not really doesnt matter here. The stud kids on that team play elsewhere. Maybe your kid works harder and gets himself on the field that way. Heres a concept that works .... the best kids play varsity and they play to win. Happens everywhere and on every high school team. Instead of being stoked that you have a professional with much knowledge of the game and how to win you want him out ... makes a lot of sense!! Leave the kid and the father alone. It wouldnt matter if he score 70 points or 7 points all season. Hes going to go off to a big program regardless of what happens with his high school career. The kid is a good player and theres not denying that. Hes not some scrub out there on the field not getting it done so stop being that disgruntled parent whos kid didnt stack up to the top kids on the team ... theres always next year to prove yourself or maybe your kid just isnt as good as you think he is.

Actually this was an answer to an earlier declaration about how "weak" Suffolk A was, [lacrosse]! Had nothing to do with Stowns unproductive all Americans! The post was meant to prove the point that teams such as Stown East and Sachem North, etc, are great competitive teams in Suffolk A, so easy there!

Smithtown west should be ashamed of themselves 5 coaches and double digit division 1 players and 3 under Armour all Americans. You can be the greatest practice coach and do great drills but year in and year these guy blows it in every big game. I lean to believe that Rotanz will be the coach there in the near future.

Gross display of coaching and an incredible job by West Islip.

I don't think so. I was at game a few weeks back where Massapequa destroyed Syosset. Looked like they were playing their JV squad. It is playoffs now, so it should be closer but I don't think Pequa will have problem with the Braves. The problem with Massapequa is they played a weak schedule this spring. They haven't had tough games since Garden City and Chaminade which they lost both. Not their fault and they are very deep, but I think Suffolk A teams have the edge because of the completion every week.

Pequa "destroyed" Syp two years ago in the regular season and Syo beat them for the county championship. It .is never over till it over. Both teams have to show up and play. Hopefully it will be a good clean competitive game

They put a bigger follow-up article in yesterday's paper. My issue is why they haven't published all-division and all-county awardees , just All-LI the last few years.

On another note. For the New [lacrosse] vs Maryland crowd...two biggest offensive headliners today are Long Island bred and trained. MylesJones and Matt Kavanaugh.

On another note. For the New [lacrosse] vs Maryland crowd...two biggest offensive headliners today are Long Island bred and trained. MylesJones and Matt Kavanaugh.


One a typical little Long Island kid and the other not so little, which makes it hard to believe he's from Long Island because Long Island kids are small. Haha

Don't know about LI kids being "small". I think all areas have players in D1 college programs playing that are big and small. Im a proud LI lacrosse dad of a D1 player so our LI list is impressive of several players that we have heard their names on TV the past few weeks.

Kavanaugh (Chaminade Irish 5'9")
Zenker (Chaminade Duke 6'1")
Jones (Huntington, Duke 6'5")
Kohansky (St.Anthony's, Irish 6'4")
Fowler (Chaminade, Duke 5"11")

Raffa (St.Anthony's, Terps 6'0")
Chanenchuk (St.Anthony's, Terps 5'10")
LoCasio (St.Anthony's, Terps 5'10")
Massa (Huntington, Bryant, 5'11")
Crowley (Pt Washington, Hopkins 5'11")

Schreiber (St.Anthony's, Princeton 6'1")
Pellegrino (Hopkins, 5'8")
Enright (Massapequa, Hopkins 6'1")
Dansigleo (St.Anthony's, UVA 6'0")

You take a shot at our kids that they are small, but yet our LI kids DO IT BIG. Share your list.

HHH HSW This is simply a lie. The majority of kids on Varsity are or have been 91 players. The kid is a good player It wasnt 70 points btw more like 60 but its not about the kid Hes fine and would be fine without the dad. NOt a superstar maybe but he would play when his time came on his own. WHy then does the dad coach feel the need to be a part of every tryout or team his son does Bluechip 3d -- he's on sidelines Brine tryouts-- on sidelines. Sorry but he has a vested interest in those events and regardless of his background, it gives a bad impression to be elbow to elbow with the evaluators when your kid is on field and everyone trying to get a fair nod. He always looks out for 91 kids that are on his 2017 91 team He was never involved in coaching those events or this HHH HSW team until his kid was on bc he refuses to give control over his kids to anyone else. Why should a parent be allowed to inject himself into hs sports or college events when their kid is one of players? I agree with the original poster on this. I also agree that there is a better forum/ audience for this, at least for the hs problem. The other teams- well its lesson 101 in politicking If your kid is an underclassman like you say he is. Go and bring it to your AD attention.

Oh you must mean like, Chanenchuk, Cavanagh, Noble and Wolf? The stars and leaders of the teams still left in NCAA final four. All well under 5'10". Of course 2 of the four are from LI. One from St Ants and the other from Chaminade. I think the water is just fine... Now go console your 6'3" 20 year old HS senior. Hey wait, maybe if you now reclass sonny boy again and do a PG year, Tillman, Danowski, Tierney or Corrigan (all from Long Island) will finally call looking for your now 21 year old. Moron...


The post about Long Island players being small is a tongue in cheek response to the MD poster who said a few pages ago that Long Island players were small and that it was time to change what's in the Long Island water. I would make the bet any day that Long Island had 2x more "impact" players among the final 4 that MD, despite that lack of size ha, ha. Myles must have been born in MD and then moved to Long Island but never sipped water. On a more serious note - anybody know which summer club Myles played for while he was at Walt Whitman? Express, 91, fl$?

Really? because I think one Brennan kid is coaching while two are on the WW team! And...they did really well this year also! I do understand where there can be a conflict of interest but, both of these teams have done really well this year. Give me a daddy/brother coach that can coach this well on our HS team anyday! Sorry, it just sounds like sour grapes here!
