Published

on

The Haverstraw/Nanuet Softball Little League Team is headed to the Junior Little League World Series in Washington State. The team is made up of 13 – 14 year girls from Haverstraw and Nanuet in Rockland County.

After Pool play, the girls entered into single elimination rounds seeded 3rd in the Mid Atlantic bracket with a 1-2 record. The girls went on to defeat #2 seed Massachusetts from the New England bracket. They then faced Pennsylvania for the second time (NY lost 5-4 in 8 innings during pool play) and defeated them to win a bid to the final round (a best out of 3 series) against Delaware (NY lost to Delaware 5-3 during pool play). NY took the first game of the series 4-1 day 1. The following day, Delaware defeated NY 7-4, forcing a final game. NY won the decisive game by a score of 6-2, with pitcher Delaney McGovern (Haverstraw) hurling both games.

Congratulations To North Rockland HS Football Coach Joe Gizzi On Being Named The 2024 NY State Assistant Football Coach Of The Year

Published

on

Coach Gizzi has been an unwavering force within the North Rockland Football program for 14 years, beginning his journey at the modified level and steadily rising to become a key leader on the Varsity Coaching Staff. His extraordinary dedication, unmatched work ethic, and selfless spirit have made an indelible impact on the football program, culminating in their first Section 1 Championship in over a decade.
In his third year as Defensive Coordinator, Coach Gizzi’s defensive strategies have set a new standard, holding opponents to just 12.3 points per game and an average of 66 passing yards. His defense delivered an incredible 15 turnovers and 12 sacks this season, shutting out three playoff opponents and holding others to only 3.5 points per game in the postseason.
Coach Gizzi’s impact goes beyond the stats; he is a mentor, a motivator, and a model of what it means to lead with heart. Whether on the field or during the offseason, he inspires our players to achieve greatness both athletically and academically. His leadership has transformed the #NRockAthletics football program into one of the best in the state, and his influence will be felt for years to come.
