Robinson to Play at Monroe College: Peekskill-Cortlandt Daily Sports Digest April 27

See what your local student athletes—and their biggest supporters—are up to today and take this week's poll.

Welcome to Patch's daily snapshot of sports in Peekskill and Cortlandt.

 

Football

Peekskill senior wide receiver Diamonte Robinson will be playing football next year at Monroe College.

Below is a statement about Robinson from Peekskill head football coach Frank Bucci:

As a coach and educator, I take great pleasure to see Diamonte Robinson, a dedicated, diligent, and disciplined young athlete, achieve his goal in playing football at the college level.  Diamonte is a talented athlete with great character qualities.  

This is evident through his respect for others and himself.  These attributes were shaped from the loving support of his family and in part with the many other positive influences Diamonte had from Faculty, Staff, Administrators, and Coaches at Peekskill High School, most notably Coach Anthony Turner, who took Diamonte under his wing.  

I wish I could have coached Diamonte for more than just his senior year.  I know Monroe College is the first step of Diamonte’s very bright future.

Feminella Leads Sailors

NO! PLEASE HAVE MERCY!!!!!!!
Dutch May 25, 2013 at 09:36 am
How can the majority of residents of Peekskill look forward to support Mary Foster and her team whenRead More they cannot vote!

Jesus...Be a fence around Peekskill...
W Kelly May 20, 2013 at 09:51 am
Don't believe a word of HVHC mission statement they tossed out the Meth Clinic since it carriesRead More negativity to the new and improved hospital.
Danny May 18, 2013 at 12:20 pm
It is dangerous and a menace to our already horrible traffic on 6. Thank God none of those kids gotRead More hit running in between cars looking for change. Traffic was backed up all through Mohegan...Poor choice of a way to raise monies for a good cause.
shakemdown May 23, 2013 at 02:51 pm
i know what i'm talking about, i live at hudson view and i saw the whole thing unfold from theRead More beginning to the end,unlike you who sits behind a screen and type what he or she hears, i saw first hand what went on and what didn't happen, and yes the excavator did in fact start tearing down the building before any investigation started,regardless of what you say, i know what happened, there is and old saying that goes like this, " believe less of what you hear and more of what you see", this fits you TELEMAN, if you really want to know what happened , you can ask me, hell i'll even meet you in person, but if you what to continue believing the bs that the mayor and others are putting out there, then go ahead.as far as moving on , i have and so have the people who lost everything, but what remains is a mayor who is hell bent on building a muti-million dollar firehouse and the firefighters can't even get water to fight fires. "fire houses don't save lives, water to fight fires do." once again TELEMAN, if you want the truth see me, if not continue listening to the "BS", in the long run the "BS" will run it's course, and the truth will be right there waiting.
Teleman May 23, 2013 at 12:08 pm
The evidence was more than likely destroyed by the intense fire-not the mayor. I think you areRead More incorrect saying that the building was raised before investigators arrived. Move on!
shakemdown May 22, 2013 at 11:55 pm
yeah, but let the mayor tell it, that never happened, ( the excavator tearing down the buildingRead More before the investigators even got to the scene) just like all the other lies that they have told.

I never heard so much baloney. Don't let them brainwash you kids. Solar and wind are frauds. ARead More windmill just threw off a blade that weighs tons. They break all the time and wind energy is the most dangerous and not efficient. Oh and global weather patterns are natural and not man-made "OCOTILLO WIND TURBINE THROWS OFF MULTI-TON BLADE, PROMPTING WORLD-WIDE SHUT DOWN OF SIMILAR TURBINES AMID GROWING SAFETY CONCERNS" http://www.eastcountymagazine.org/node/13251

With all these non profits not paying taxes they have certainly made a lot of us who pay the billsRead More for them non profit also.

Can someone call the Planning Department and find out if Frank's sign outside of his office followsRead More The City's sign ordinance?
Concerned Parent May 21, 2013 at 09:08 am
@w Kelly.....Ahhhhhhhhh maybe the cops are not educated about addiction?? Why not ask the neighborsRead More of the soon-to-be closed HVHC Methadone Clinic -- the veterinarian, residents in hear-by homes, the stores and restaurants in the shopping center, etc. -- have they experienced any "problems" with the clients going to the clinic ?? Personally, I believe the "cops" should be focusing on the known areas to buy drugs -- it does not take a rocket scientist to see the dealers. What happened to the bike patrols used by the police dept ??? As said by another, thank goodness we live in the U.S. for freedom of speech. I
W Kelly May 21, 2013 at 06:06 am
Residential is right, Dogwood, Sprout Brook, Highland Park all the neighbors off of Highland Ave ,Read More Dunbar Heights yes those are all in very close proximity to Meth Clinic. Tell me why all the cops /troopers say a very bad thing for the community?
sayitsnotsojack May 19, 2013 at 11:37 am
The long suffering tax payer should look at it as them paying for their extravagant health care andRead More pension plans. As for lending a hand they have had our hand outs for way too long.
Teleman May 19, 2013 at 05:09 pm
We've got the Constitution on our side. Although it is being eroded, we still have quite a largeRead More number of the population who still believes in it- 46,455 gun background checks per day since bama got in office- ( yes, we already do background checks for the majority of gun purchases)
Teleman May 19, 2013 at 04:57 pm
Let's face it- we can find niche studies to suit any position we take- but the justice departmentRead More study I am citing is a large piece that goes from 1993-2010- before, during and after the 1994 assault weapons ban -and it spans a pretty large time frame in which to draw these conslusions. This is a very comprehensive look at gun crime in the US- and it shows massive decline despite rising ownership. Deny all you want, because to continue your agenda, it's your only choice.
Abby Normal May 19, 2013 at 11:27 am
Tele, I keep hearing the mantra from the right saying more guns equal less crime. The truth howeverRead More flies in the face of this propaganda. A recent study actually shows that the highest homicide rates are in the states with the fewest gun controls. States like Louisiana, South Carolina, Mississippi and Alaska just to name a few. Sure, there are fewer homicides in Alaska than in New York, but adjusted for population, the per-ca-pita homicide rate is significantly lower in New York.

Thanks Liz, We appreciate your support and I will pass your kind comments on to our staff. I'm sureRead More it will mean a lot to them.
