Eldred and Manor cancel remaining basketball games

Recent post-game violence prompts move

By RICHARD A. ROSS and DAVID HULSE

ELDRED, NY — The sports rivalry between Eldred and Livingston Manor has always been fierce and now it has deteriorated into something else altogether.

Violence entered the picture at the schools’ January 21 basketball game. A post-game melee broke out at Eldred sending one Eldred girl to the hospital. Considering the situation too hot to handle, Eldred Central School (ECS) Superintendent Candace Mazur on Friday, January 31 decided to cancel the games between the two schools for the remainder of the season.

Livingston Manor Superintendent Dr. Kenneth Gray did not agree with the solution.
