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

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.

Little plays big against Cougars

DID YOU KNOW?


You can look back over the last 70 years at some of the area athletes and personalities who made headlines in area sports. Flashback will revive memories of great local athletes and outstanding team successes.

DELHI — The Clinton Community College men's basketball team was staying close to SUNY Delhi Sunday.

Until Jamal Little took over.

Little, a 6-foot-1 guard, scored 20 of his game-high 24 points in the second half as the Broncos defeated the Cougars, 58-45.

"Defensively, we were playing pretty well in our zone," said Clinton C.C. coach Kevin Daugherty. "But, then Little got hot and hit three three-pointers.

"We were down, 37-33, and it was stuck on that score for what seemed to be a long time. We were right there. But, then Little got it going."

SUNY Delhi went up by as many as 17 points before the Cougars cut it down to nine in the late going.

"They then made their free throws," Daugherty said.

The Broncos held a 26-21 lead at the half.

"Both teams were deliberate and were patient in running their offense," Daugherty said. "The first time we played them about three weeks ago at our place, they won 44-33. So, a low-scoring game was expected."

Travon Smith added 15 points and Eliot Watson nine for SUNY Delhi.

Justin Vice paced the Cougars with 13 points, while Stephane Alexander added 10 and Anthony Hodge, eight.

It was the second road loss in as many days for Clinton C.C. which dropped a 74-62 decision at Fulton-Montgomery Community College on Saturday.

"This was another tough road loss for us," Daugherty said. "We still have three more road games left, including at North Country Community College on Wednesday."
