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.

SYRACUSE — The Northern Adirondack volleyball team just couldn't get past Dolgeville.

The Bobcats posted a 3-0 win in their first match against Section IV's Sidney, but fell twice to Section III's Dolgeville, including the final, in the regionals Saturday at Jamesville-DeWitt High School.

"It was a better offensive scheme than we've seen all year, so the girls didn't know how to handle it at first," NAC coach Shae Gilmore said.

Northern Adirondack showed a lot more fight in the final, though. The Bobcats lost a hard-fought first game, 25-23, and then fell, 25-14, in the second game before a tough, 25-8 final.

In the first meeting of the two teams, Dolgeville won by scores of 25-11, 25-15 and 25-17.

"Serving was a lot better in the second match," Gilmore said.

In the final, Kara Perry recorded seven digs and three kills, and Emily Garrand had four digs, four assists and three points.

Northern Adirondack had a tough battle against Sidney in the second game of the match, but came out on top, 31-29.
