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.

BEEKMANTOWN — Zack Towle, Keyden Costin and Malo Valerian scored first-half goals Thursday afternoon and Beekmantown advanced to the Section VII Class B boys' soccer semifinals with a 5-1 win over Saranac Lake.

Towle opened the scoring at 4:13, Costin tallied on a header at 6:32 and Valerien scored on a breakaway at 28:46.

Matt Martin cut Saranac Lake's deficit to 3-1 at 11:15 of the second half.

But Chris McIlroy tallied at 24:13 and Towle, with his second goal of the game, at 26:38 to complete Beekmantown's scoring.

The Eagles held an 18-8 shot advantage. Brett Smith made eight stops for Beekmantown in net.

Mark Price assisted on three of the Eagles' goals.

"Our defense played a good game," said Beekmantown coach Tony Perez. "Saranac Lake was very aggressive to the ball. They had some nice opportunities, but our defense came through again.

"I was especially proud of Mark Price. He's a junior varsity kid we just moved up for (Thursday's) game."

CHAMPLAIN — Northeastern Clinton got goals from four players in blanking the Patriots.

Dylan Carter and Jamie Davison scored in the first half, while Brett Bosley and Fred Hapgood, on a penalty kick, tallied in the second half of play.

Davison, Devan Poissant and Sean Harrigan picked up assists.

The Cougars outshot AuSable Valley, 24-4, with Casey Manor in net for the shutout with three saves. Jeremy Wood stopped 17 shots for the Patriots.

"We didn't come out with stellar play," said NCCS coach Dale Hawksby. "We were holding back — I don't know why. But, we were not as aggressive as we should have been.

"In the second half, we were a different team. We played better, with better passing.

"(Dylan) Carter played really well up front and hustled. Branden LaMere, at outside halfback, also played well. Curtis Loreman played well for them at fullback and Sean Pulsifer up front."
