Wrestling Preview
Lindenhurst’s and Ward Melville’s departure to League II leaves League I with six solid programs. Sachem seeks its 12th league dual- meet title, and third in the last four seasons, under 32-year coach Jack Mahoney. James Sykes (171) and Ken Kennedy (275) highlight a formidable lineup. Brentwood, with Torres and Anthony Rivera (152), will challenge. Chris McAleese (119) and Greg Holmes (140) keep Longwood‘s dual-meet title defense aspirations alive. Floyd’s John Barone (171) and Smithtown’s Sean Egan (103) give their teams an outside shot.
