  • Hoop-de-doo: Lady Rams win one while the Rams keep coming closer

    With apologies to the seasonal hymn, joy to the world or at least the Port Chester Basketball Nation because the Lady Rams basketball team has won its first game of the season after going 0-20 last year. And the Rams are coming closer to nailing their elusive first win after also going 0-20 last year.
  • Rye Town/Harrison Titans skate into the season with speed
    The Rye Town/Harrison Titans varsity hockey team has had a strong start to its 2018-19 season under the leadership of second year coach Rich Myers and assistant coach Jamie Funigiello. The team is comprised of players from Blind Brook, Rye Neck, Port Chester and Harrison high schools and plays in the Section 1 Class B league. 
  • B.B. girls’ basketball 1-1 after first week of play
    To start off the 2018-19 basketball season, the Lady Trojans hosted Pleasantville High School on Thursday, Dec. 6. Beginning the season on their home court seemed like it provided an extra boost to the Trojans as they came out firing. Right off the bat freshman Gabby Tucker connected with sophomore Kaitlyn Tangney for the first points of the game, followed by a quick basket of her own. 
  • Wrestling Rams impress in Eastchester Tourney
    Port Chester's varsity wrestling Rams became the first large school Westchester team in scoring in the prestigious Eastchester Tournament last Saturday (12/8). 
  • Grid Rams past and present surface during annual football awards dinner

    It was a local version of the Texas-style high school football classic "Friday Night Lights" except it took place at Westchester Burger in Rye Brook and it wasn't even a Friday night. But it certainly was a Thursday night (12/6) and that was the occasion of the Port Chester Rams annual football awards dinner.
  • B.B. hoops off to 1-2 start, but Trojans look promising

    After a second place finish in the annual Cliff Clinton Classic Tournament hosted by Rye and a tight loss to early section-contender Putnam Valley, the Blind Brook Trojans are sitting at an unrepresentative 1-2. The Trojans opened the campaign with an impressive victory over Sleepy Hollow before dropping consecutive games to strong opponents in Rye and Putnam Valley.

  • B.B. boys’ hoops set to tip-off
    Hot off one of the best seasons in recent program history that ultimately ended in a hard-fought loss to Briarcliff in the Section One Class B final at Pace University, the Blind Brook boys’ basketball team is back and ready to recreate some of the same success they enjoyed last year. 
  • Lady Rams basketball a work in progress starting with opening defeat by Eastchester

    Nobody ever said turning around a losing Lady Rams basketball program was going to be easy.

    Not after the Lady Rams went 0-20 last year, barely had enough players to field a starting varsity basketball team and didn't have enough players for a junior varsity or freshman team.
  • Splits indicate how fast runners are going on Rams, Lady Rams and collegiate level
    The word split means different things to different people. For ice cream aficionados, it could mean in a banana topping on an ice cream dish
  • PCHS hoop Rams run into 2 blowouts, 1 with a tire, the other against Scarsdale

    It wasn't the kind of blowout the Port Chester basketball Rams expected either on or off the court.
