SPRING VALLEY, NY – February is Black History Month and we would like to recognize Spring Valley HS Football Coach Andrew Delva.

Delva is a Spring Valley HS graduate and has dedicated himself to Spring Valley High School. Besides Football, he also coaches track and field. Rockland & Spring Valley are extremely lucky to have an individual like Andrew Delva mentoring the youth in our community.

An incident that shows Coach Delva’s character and dedication occurred in 2018.

After coaching the Spring Valley HS Football team on Friday night, Coach Andrew Delva Sr. woke up early Saturday morning to coach the Spring Valley Pop Warner team – the Hornets.

At the end of a long day filled with multiple games, he was filmed by parents from the opposing team cleaning the stands himself.

In March of 2020, Laurie Santulli County Legislator presented Coach Delva with the Distinguished Service Award.

“Coach Delva has been an older brother and father figure to hundreds if not thousands of students in his years at Spring Valley. He takes absolutely no nonsense or excuses, he pushes for and expects maximum effort. But in return students know they will have the strongest and most dedicated man in their corner for life. “ said Spring Valley HS teacher and Rockland County Legislator Laurie Santulli.

Caitlin Clark Makes WNBA History With 45-Point Masterpiece, Joins Elite Company

Published

on

Caitlin Clark delivered one of the greatest individual performances in basketball history Friday night, pouring in a career-high 45 points to lead the Indiana Fever to a thrilling 110-107 victory over the Seattle Storm while rewriting the WNBA record books.

Clark didn’t just have a career night—she made history.

The Fever superstar added 10 assists, four steals and two blocks, becoming the first player in WNBA history to record a 40-point, 10-assist game. Her 45 points also set a new Indiana Fever franchise record.

The performance becomes even more remarkable considering Clark accomplished the feat while playing just 29 minutes as she continues to return from a back injury and was still on a managed minutes restriction. She shot 11-of-18 from the field, including 6-of-10 from three-point range, and sealed the win with a clutch late three-pointer and four free throws in the closing seconds.

Clark also became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 200 career three-pointers, accomplishing the milestone in just 74 games, breaking the previous record of 81 games.

Her historic stat line also places her alongside some of basketball’s biggest names. According to widely shared statistical research, Clark is one of only five players in NBA/WNBA history to record at least 45 points, 10 assists, four steals and two blocks in a single game. The others are Michael Jordan, Dwyane Wade, Luka Dončić, and Cade Cunningham.

For many basketball fans, Friday night’s performance was another reminder that Clark is already reshaping the WNBA record book just two seasons into her professional career. From becoming the league’s first player to post a 40-point, 10-assist game to reaching 200 three-pointers faster than anyone before her, the Fever guard continues to accomplish feats that place her among the sport’s all-time greats.
