Cream rises to the top at Sullivan County Meet of Champions

By RICHARD A. ROSS

JEFFERSONVILLE, NY—Amid the whirlwind of the spring track and field season wherein teams vie against each other for division and sectional titles, the Sullivan County Meet of Champions holds a unique place. The meet features only individual titles, allowing athletes to concentrate on their events without the added pressure of team scoring.

On May 19, athletes from host Sullivan West, Monticello, Liberty, Livingston Manor, Fallsburg and Tri-Valley competed for county gold. Under gorgeous blue skies and with the kind of balmy temperatures one expects in late May, the meet flowed smoothly and featured many compelling races on the track and a plethora of outstanding competition in field events.

JEFFERSONVILLE, NY - Sullivan West’s final league game of the season, an 8-0 win that completed a sweep of the Comets on May 21, may have seemed routine fare as Brad Reimer tossed a three-hit shutout. Westie bats were paced by Mark Tesseyman’s three RBI, and Eric Minton’s fine two hits and two runs.

But this game was anything but routine.

Sullivan West clinched its first Division IV baseball title since 2003 when the Bulldogs captured the crown in a tilt against Burke, remembered most for its game-saving catch by Billy Nordenhold on a blast by Eagle pitcher Mark Broadhead.
