Discussion

PLEASE NOTE: There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

ALSO NOTE: Derisive name-calling of an individual or group will result in the entire comment being deleted. This includes the terms "stupid" and "idiot" and similar references.

Welcome to our new online comments feature. Before you can join the discussion, you must first register with Disqus and verify your email address.

Once you do, your comments will post after they have been reviewed by a moderator.

We welcome your thoughts and your opinions, including unpopular ones. We ask only that you keep the conversation civil and clean.

Not all comments are deemed printable. Some are disqualified, at the newspaper’s discretion, for a number of reasons. Here are some typical practices to avoid in trying to get your comment printed:

There is a 150 word maximum for comments. All comments greater than 150 words in length will be deleted in their entirety.

Don’t state as a fact something that is unsubstantiated or that our editors wouldn't know to be true.

Don’t presume someone’s guilt in a case when it hasn't been established by a court.

Don’t assail or impugn an identifiable individual or group. If you have that kind of criticism, sign your name and submit it as a Letter to the Editor. (There is some leeway on this in connection with public officials, but it is not unconditional.)

Don’t use profanity. This includes the term “tea bagger.”

Don’t be incendiary or tasteless. Those qualities are subjective, of course, and our editors will be the arbiters.

Do not identify yourself in the main content area of the article content form. Only by enforcing this rule can the moderators prevent unscrupulous commenters from falsely identifying themselves as someone they are not.

Don't type in all caps. It is considered the Internet equivalent of shouting.

In sports articles, do not criticize officiating.

Remember, moderators are not allowed to edit any article comments. If an article comment fails any of the above criteria, the entire comment will be deleted.

We monitor comments Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. Approval of comments outside these times may be delayed.

Seton standout sets amazing pace

PLATTSBURGH — Andrea Maynard set a pace last week that few athletes would dare to attempt.

The Seton Catholic senior took two firsts in the Section VII Indoor Track & Field Championships a week ago Saturday and immediately after, boarded a plane to Nicaragua as a volunteer worker in the North Country Mission of Hope.

Maynard then left Nicaragua at 4 a.m. Friday, arriving at 4 a.m. Saturday in Plattsburgh. She then competed in the state qualifier in indoor track, earning a spot on the Section VII team in the 600-meter run and the 3,200-meter relay.

And, as if that wasn't enough, Maynard headed to Paul Smiths Sunday where she captured a silver medal in Empire Games snowshoeing.

It was back to school Monday with plenty to tell about how she spent her week's vacation.

The Seton Catholic standout was one of several athletes to qualify for the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Championships to be held March 7 at Cornell University in Ithaca.

Saranac, with 11 boys and girls, will send the largest delegation to the state meet with Nate Williams and Jason Pageau qualifying in three events each.

Seton Catholic is next with 10 athletes. Michael Champagne, Zach Ziemer, Genna Hartung, Anna Rabideau, Alexa Cosgro and Maynard each earned two tickets to the state meet.

Ticonderoga has eight representatives with Devin Scott, Lexi Reale and Ainsley MacAlpine doubling up for the Sentinels.

Beekmantown and Peru each have six state qualifiers with Josh Garren of the Eagles and Rachel Danis, Megan Black and Ashley Leta of the Indians making it in two events.

AuSable Valley, with Josh Ashline a two-time qualifier, has five going to Ithaca while Plattsburgh High will send two, including Alexis Harrington, who earned two places.

Sprinter Corrine Becker will be Saranac Lake's lone competitor.
