LE ROY PENNYSAVER & NEWS - FEBRUARY 20, 2022 by Ric Vangalio GLOW REGION - 4th GRADEBOYSBASKETBALL: The 4th Grade Le Roy Boys Knights basketball team has had this matchup circled on the calendar for the past couple of weeks. Both the Knights and the Geneseo Blue Devils entered this game undefeated and knew that this game would probably be the one that decides the regular season GLOW Basketball Championship. Both teams knew this would be a battle and neither team wanted to give in. Geneseo is a well coached team that plays a tough physical style of defense and a disciplined offense that gave the Knights fits to start off. The Knights, who are used to getting out early and staying ahead actually found themselves down at the end of the first quarter. Ryker Vangalio hit two foul shots while Dylan Loftus added a bucket as the Knights found themselves down at the end of the period 4-6. This marked the first time all year the Knights were down at the end of any period. The second period was just as close and just as physical as both teams refused to give in. The Knights fought back in the 2nd quarter and found themselves in more familiar territory as they took an 11-10 lead into halftime. During the halftime break the Knights made some defensive adjustments that they hoped would pay off. Pay off they did, as Blake Biracree, Krypton Cone and Andrew Sibley came up big on defense as Geneseo would only score 2 points in the 3rd period. Carter McClurg helpedwiden the gap as well as he got in on the scoring. At the end of the 3rd the Knights led in a still very tight game 1512. The sign of a good team is how they can handle pressure situations. As the game came down to the end, the Knights never got rattled while the Geneseo team started showing their frustrations. Harrison Porter and Thomas Englerth helped out by combining for 5 rebounds on defense while Loftus and Vangalio took control of the offense. Vangalio and Loftus have been an impressive combination that has worked together very well all season. That combination would be the difference in this game. Vangalio scored 6 points in the final quarter, the last bucket being off a perfectly run high pick and roll with Loftus providing a pin-point pass to set up the score, and the final nail in the coffin for Geneseo. The Knights finished off the Blue Devils and moved on to 6-0 for the season. They attempt to finish the perfect season next weekend against Cal-Mum. Ryker Vangalio completed the game with a double-double as he led the team in points (14) and rebounds (14). Other offensive contributors were Dylan Loftus (7 points) and Carter McClurg (2 points). KTA COED BASKETBALL LEAGUE: 3rd/4th Grade League Game #1: Lakers vs Bulls The first game of the 3rd/4th Grade division was a match-up of the winless Lakers (0-5) vs the top seeded Bulls (4-1). The Lakers were looking for their first win of the season, while the Bulls were looking to lock up the #1 seed in next week's KTA playoffs. The Lakers were without team scoring leader Drew Spink, so they knew they had to bring their A game. Eden Bailey was not going to lay down and give up though as she scored 4 points in the first half to keep the Lakers in the game. The Bulls used a balanced attack of Carter McClurg, Dylan Loftus, Harrison Porter and Brody Wilson on offense to end the 1st half up 10-4. The Lakers were not about to give up, as Addy Stella came out hot as a pistol in the 2nd half. Stella added 8 points in the period as she fought to keep her team in the game. At the end of the 3rd, it looked like the Lakers had a chance as they were within 3 points. Brianna “Stitch” Porcelli had other plans, as she led her Bulls team with 6 points in the 2nd half to help them pull away from the Lakers. Jayden Biletskiy then put an exclamation point on the game with a baseline runner to seal the victory and give the Bulls a win and clinch the #1 seed heading into the playoffs. The final score was Bulls 23 Lakers 16. The Bulls finish the year 5-1 and will play the #4 seed Lakers again next week in the first round of the playoffs as they finish the season 0-6. The Bulls were led by Brianna Porcelli and Carter McClurg with 6 points each. Other offensive contributors were Harrison Porter (4 points), Dylan Lofus (3 points), Brody Wilson (2 points) and Jayden Biletskiy (2 points) The Lakers were led by Addy Stella with 10 points. Other offensive contributors were Eden Bailey (6 points). Game #2: Lakers vs Celtics In the 2nd game the Celtics looked for a little revenge as it was the Knicks that gave them their first loss of the season back in week 3. With the Bulls win in game 1, this game meant very little as far as playoff positioning, but don’t tell that to these two teams. This game had playoff intensity the entire game as the defense of both teams came to play. The Celtics got out to a quick start with a 7-3 1st quarter lead. The Lakers won on a last second buzzer beater in game one, and the Celtics were determined to make sure this one wasn’t close enough to let that happen again. The Celtics are known as one of the deeper teams in the league and they used that depth to not only maintain the lead, but pull away throughout the game. Ryker Vangalio, Cole Cray, Owen Nichols and Paul Winters all found a way to get on the scoreboard in this game. The Knicks definitely were not going to go down without a fight as they used a great team effort of Ben Biracree, Quinton Ianni, Arabella Morsch and Blake Biracree to put points on the board. In the end, it was the Celtics that got their revenge and came away with a 23-13 victory. The Celtics finish the year 4-2 and earned the #2 seed heading into the playoffs. The Celtics will play the Knicks again in the playoffs as they finish the year 3-3 as the #3 seed. Ryker Vangalio led the Celtics in scoring with 13 points. Other offensive contributors were Cole Cray (6 points), Owen Nichols (2 points) and Paul Winters (2 points). Ben Biracree led the Lakers with 7 points. Other offensive contributors were Quinton Ianni (2 points), Arabella Morsch (2 points) and Blake Biracree (2 points). 1st/2nd Grade League Game #1: Blazers vs Raptors The first game of the 1st/2nd Grade league was a showdown of the 4-1 Raptors and the 1-4 Blazers. The Raptors were looking to clinch the #1 seed going into next week’s KTA Basketball playoffs. The Blazers are in the midst of a 3 game losing streak but Coach Kristin Loftus was looking to turn that around.

LE ROY PENNYSAVER & NEWS - FEBRUARY 20, 2022 by Lynne Belluscio I was searching through past articles that I wrote during February about Black history, and I came across this February 26, 1990, and I want to share it. I had just recently started working at the Historical Society. I don’t remember where my office was, but since we hadn’t opened the Jell-OMuseum, it had to be in one of the rooms in LeRoy House. I had started to open file cabinets to see what I was going to be doing and I discovered a file of newspaper clippings and several original letters. There was also a copy of the Congressional Report of the United StatesSenateandapage fromtheOctober 22, 1945 edition of Time Magazine. The report centered around the policy of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution* to allow “whites only” to perform in Constitutional Hall in Washington D. C. This had been a policy of the D.AR. passed in 1932. “In accordance with the prevailing custom of the District of Columbia regarding schools, auditoriums, theaters, hotels, restaurants, clubs, canteens playgrounds, and other public and private places. Hazel Scott, a famous Black pianist, wanted to rent Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C. for a performance and was refused. Her husband, recently elected Representative from Harlem, Adam Clayton Powell*, demanded action against the D.A.R. In the meantime, back here in LeRoy, Rev. J. Stanley Ormsby, Vice President of the LeRoy National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (N.A.A.C.P.)* sent a letter to Mrs. Comfort, Regent of the LeRoy Chapter of the D.A.R. asking them to “join with all the democratic thinking people in a nation-wide protest against the unjust barring of Miss Hazel Scott, concert pianist, from playing in Constitution Hall.” He continued: “We are wondering if you believe firmly enough the applied principals of our Democracy to file a formal protest resolution to be sent to the National D.A.R.” Even before they received a letter from Rev. Ormsby, a special meeting of the LeRoy D.A.R. was called and they approved the following resolution: “Resolved that the Te-carna-wun-na, N.S.D.A.R.* regrets the recent action taken by the national board in regards to renting of Constitution Hall to Negro Artist and Resolved that we urge immediate repeal of the rule forbidding such renting...” It didn’t take long for the news to make headlines! An unsigned postcard dated October 20, from Waterloo, Iowa, arrived in LeRoy. “Well you really want to stir up trouble. We are sick and tired of the coddling given that element. Why not build them a hall of their own where they can sing anytime where all you people who feel so badly for them could go." On October 26, Senator Mead from New York* addressed the United State Senate with the following comments: “Mr. President, I desire to commend the Protestant and ministerial associates and likewise the D.A R. Chapter at LeRoy, New York, who according to a recent newspaper report, have also adopted a resolution condemning the action taken by the D.A.R. authorities in connection with Constitution Hall.” While the debate lingered on, the local chapter began to receive letters from other D.A.R. chapters in support of their actions. Time magazine, on October 22, ran an article about the incident in LeRoy. Apparently, the issue continued for quite some time. In February 1946, Mrs. Comfort in LeRoy, received a letter from Clare Booth Luce*, but this time written on the letterhead of the “D.A.R. Committee Against Discrimination in Constitution Hall – a Voluntary Organization of Members of the Daughters of the American Revolution.” Luce wrote: “Your members are to be commended, and I hope their enthusiasm will not stop here – It is worth it.. to vindicate the good name of thousands of D.A.R.'s all over the country who still believe in the principles of life, liberty and equality for which their forefathers died.” Ultimately, the D.A.R came to embrace these resolutions, but it is worth noting that the it was the LeRoy Chapter of the D.A.R. whose voice first cried out against discrimination. When I wrote the article in 1990, I also found clippings about the LeRoy Chapter of the N.A.A.C.P – the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In October, the local chapter received its charter at a meeting at LeRoy House. President Franklin Bundy was presented the charter by Victor Einach* of Buffalo who spoke on the Ives-Quinn Bill. Eugene Kinne, past Commander of the Botts-Fiorito Post LeRoy American Legion and J.P. Page, President of the Rochester branch of the N.A.A.C.P spoke briefly.

The Rockets used a balanced attack on offense with both Hamilton brothers (Anthony and Jordan), Jameson Wyant, Keegan Bramer and Everitt Torrey all chipping in on offense in the 1st half. For the Blazers, it was Raelyn Cosimeno, Trenton Alford, Alley Loftus, Tarick Vangalio and Aaron Bailey helping out on offense. The game was tighter than expected at the end of the half, with the Raptors going into the break up 16-10. You can only hold off Hamilton for so long as he got open often in the 2nd half and capitalized on those opportunities to put up 10 points to help his Raptors pull away from the Blazers. Tarick Vangalio got hot from the outside as he added 6 points for the Blazers in the 2nd half, but in the end it was too little too late. The Raptors came away with the 38-26 win to finish the season 5-1 and secured the #1 seed going into next weekend's playoffs. The Blazers fall to 1-5 and as the #4 seed will meet the Raptors again in the playoffs. The Raptors were led by Anthony Hamilton with 16 points. Other offensive contributors were Keegan Bramer (10 points), Jameson Wyant (8 points), Everitt Torrey (2 points) and Jordan Hamilton (2 points) The Blazers were led by Tarick Vangalio with 10 points. Other offensive contributors were Raelyn Cosimeno (6 points), Trenton Alford (6 points), Alley Loftus (2 points) and Aaron Bailey (2 points). Game #2: Rockets vs Warriors The last game of the night was a matchup of the Warriors and the Rockets and would wrap up the 2022 KTA Basketball regular season. The Warriors have a dominant duo of 2nd graders in Brayden Johnson and Dalton Bzduch. The Rockets have a more balanced attack but rely heavily on the outside shooting of Payson Keller. While Johnson proved once again he is tough to defend, teammates Jayce Miller and Joseph Oliver would be key to today's game as well. For the Rockets, Austin Branton, Layla Robinson and Ameaus Largeroy would have to step up if they wanted to take down the Warriors. The Warriors took an early lead and ended the 1st period up 8-5. Some great defense by Ella Murrow helped the Warriors pitch a shutout in the 2nd period and gave them a 15-5 lead going into the break. In the 2nd half the Rockets would need some big time contributions from Alex Tomidy and Xander Parker if they wanted to get back in the game. But the defense of Steavan “Chalupa Batman” Montesano wasn’t going to let that happen. The Warriors pulled away in the 2nd half and came away with a 29-9 victory and end the year 4-1-1 to close out the season as the #2 seed heading into the playoffs. The Rockets finished the year 1-4-1 and will be the #3 seed in the playoffs as these two teams meet again next week. No individual scores were reported. Le Roy Youth Basketball Continued from pg 5...
