Grounded: Sachem East Comes Up Short In Suffolk County Championship

Despite 4 Casali TDs, Sachem's defense couldn't stop Floyd from pouring on 61 points.

The 2012 run is over. Sachem East put in a valiant effort, but Floyd's offensive running game proved to be too much for the Flaming Arrows as the Colonials defeated East 61-27 to capture yet another Suffolk County Championship. 

Playing in his last game at Sachem, Steven Casali put in a stellar effort, with four touchdowns on 264 yards and 38 carries. The team also managed two turnovers against Floyd, but it was Floyd's combination of Diamonte Corley and Chris Faison that proved unstoppable down the stretch. 

The final score is a bit misleading, as Sachem East was only down by two touchdowns and had recovered an onside kick with about 10 minutes remaining in the game. Floyd poured it on after that drive stalled, recording three more touchdowns to blow it open. 

Patch will have remarks from the coach, from the athletic director and from Superintendent Nolan, along with an extensive photo gallery to come.

Despite the loss, an absolutely amazing turn around for the program in the last two years.

Tell me what other district is as large as Sachem?????? No better yet tell me what district hasRead More almost 6,000 residents but less than half of them care enough to vote because they are to lazy to come out. Why because they don't think anything will happen? Or because of the i don't have a kid in the district so why should I pay attitude. Maybe you don't have a child in THIS district but you probably do in some other district or maybe a grandchild somewhere. I can't stand the fact that the CHILDREN .......mine or someone elses will suffer. For what?, being to cheap to pay an extra 500 per year. Yet you will see these same people in Starbucks or at the nail salon every 2 weeks or lets not go there and God forbid give up smoking cuz that's just so important. Before you think that I can afford to pay this 500 increase let me tell you my husband works 12 hour shifts 6 days a week and I work 40-50 hours per week as well. We have 2 grown children and 2 younger ones and we barely make ends meet. BUT I would rather take on a second or third job than see things my kids enjoy ripped from under them. ITS DISGUSTING !!!!!!! Anyone who did not take the time to come out and vote the first time or who did and voted no are disgraceful. Its about the KIDS NOT ABOUT OUR WALLETS!!!!!
