JV Hockey Championship vs Rambam
SAR JV STING DEFEAT RAMBAM RAVENS TO CAPTURE SCHOOL’S FIRST
EVER HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIP!
March 8, 2015 will be a date to remember for the SAR Sting
Hockey program. The stage was set in
Lawrence Middle School in Lawrence, NY home of the Yeshiva Hockey League Junior
Varsity Championship. The title game
featured a battle between two undefeated teams chasing their respective
school’s first ever hockey championship. The Rambam Ravens hailing from the
five towns in Long Island, were the experienced team, having played in last
years JV final and were a heavily sophomore laden team. On the other side, the
SAR Sting from Riverdale, NY were a mostly freshman team with only three
sophomores on their roster.
Rambam jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead on a goal by Daniel
Lichter 1:03 into the 1st period. SAR answered back to tie the score at 1-1
with a goal by sophomore sniper Solomon Freilich. Freshman star Gordie Kolb of
SAR put his team up 2-1 with a quick snapshot from in front of the net.
However, the Ravens responded on a power play goal by star forward and Captain Avi
Orlow on a well placed wrist shot to tie the score at 2-2 heading into the 1st
intermission.
Rambam came out strong to start the 2nd period,
but SAR freshman goalie Jacob “Nay Nay” Nayowitz, came up with some big saves
to keep the strong Ravens attack at bay. SAR went up 3-2 on Freilich’s 2nd
goal of the day, ripping a top shelf snap shot past the Rambam goalie, off a
beautiful feed from Kolb. With SAR on
the power play, Orlow scored a flukey Short Handed Goal on a miscommunication
by SAR, tying the game at 3-3. Orlow
scored again, burying a rebound, for the hat trick to put his Ravens up 4-3. SAR’s
star defenseman Shua Friedman scored a big goal on the rebound off a Freilich point
shot to tie the score at 4-4 midway thru the second period. One minute later, Gordie
Kolb scored his second of the game, to give the Sting a 5-4 lead. Kolb’s
highlight reel goal was a gorgeous play picking up the puck from his own
goaline, splitting the defense and ripping a wrist shot glove side., sending
the Sting faithful into a frenzy. With just 2:47 left in the period SAR took
it’s first two-goal lead of the game, 6-4. The goal scored by SAR rookie
forward Judah Fortgang on a quick shot through the five-hole off a clean
faceoff win by fellow freshman Ben Lasher. The wild second period, featuring 6
goals in total ended with SAR up 6-4 heading into the dressing room.
Between periods, in the SAR locker room, veteran head coach
Noah Falkenstein gave an inspirational speech to his team, providing the
motivation for the final push they needed heading into the final period.. SAR
came out flying in the 3rd period, controlling play and putting
shots on net from all areas. The Sting’s 2nd line defensive pair of
Sophmore Eli Gelfand and Freshman Adam Weiss were particular ly strong in their
own end. At 5:44, with SAR on the power play, alternate captain Jason Burian
scored a goal off a nice backhand cross pass from Kolb to give the Sting a 7-4
advantage. However, Rambam showed tremendous heart answering only 9 seconds
later on a goal by Harry Tannen. At 7-5, and time ticking down, SAR could feel
their championship in their grasp. The Ravens, with their goalie pulled made
one last effort scoring a goal with just 7 seconds remaining in the 3rd
period to pull within 7-6. However, it
was too little to late as the clock struck zero and the SAR Sting captured
their first ever Hockey Championship, capping off a 13-0 undefeated season. The
SAR STING ARE THE 2014-2015 JV HOCKEY CHAMPIONS!!!
Congrats to the SAR Sting coaching staff, led by head coach
Noah Falkenstein, assistants Zach Fein, Yves Levy and Howie Falkenstein.

JV Boys Basketball vs MTA SemiFinals
SAR JV Boys Basketball beat MTA, 33-32 in triple overtime. SAR was down 30-21 in the 4th and went on a furious run, including clutch 3-pointers by Hank Stein and Daniel Wisotsky to tie the game. Regulation ended in a 30-30 tie and that score would remain the same until triple overtime, when Daniel Wisotsky drained 1 of 2 free throws. MTA's Buchbinder scored to put MTA up 1 and soon thereafter Wisotsky had a coast to coast steal and layup for the final points of the game. Sammy Sokol had two monstrous block shots in the final minute to seal the win. SAR was led by Daniel Wisotsky's 16 points and Dovie Marcus' 10 points. Next Stop..... The CHAMPIONSHIP GAME VS Frisch.
Girls Varsity Volleyball @Ramaz Semifinals
It was a tough match up vs the number 2 seeded Ramaz Rams. The girls have never beaten Ramaz in the regular season so it was time for redemption. It started out smooth sailing when the team took the first match controlling their position and serve, winning the set 21-12. In the second set, with a few missed passes and serves, Ramaz was able to take the second game 21-15. In the third match, Sofia Schrieber had some great saves in the back row to keep the game alive for the sting. Then the girls settled down and fixed some of their mistakes to come back and win 21-19. Into the 4th match we go and the SAR sting girls seemed to want it more. They showed great teamwork, spot on passing and superb spiking by Abby Epstein and Talya Koschitzky. This allowed them to take the fourth game and the ultimate victory by winning 21-17. It was a total team effort that kept the team going with great spirit and intensity. They move on to the Championship game which is 3/15 Sunday @ 7:30pm (team TBD and Place TBD). Come cheer on the Sting girls on Sunday...Its going to be electric!!
