Sayville native Jack Coan has always been a fast learner, but when you get to the big time Division I level of football that he’s at, it’s not easy to progress.

For Coan, it’s the same old story though, another season, another chance to improve and shine.

“I definitely know a lot more, and I’m so much more comfortable than I was last spring,” Coan told LandOf10.com “I kind of actually know what I’m doing this spring.”

Coan, who is headed into his sophomore season next fall, will be the backup to starter Alex Hornibrook.

Amityville football was honored to receive the Joseph Dooley Suffolk County Football Officials Association Sportsmanship Award this week.

Congrats to the Warriors players and coaches on this award!

Suffolk’s Jeremy Ruckert represented Long Island football in a big way when he played in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl last weekend in Texas.

He only had one pass thrown his way, but did set a massive block that lead to a 44-yard rush.

He will play his next football for Ohio State as the No. 1 ranked tight end recruit in the nation.

Ruckert helped his Lindenhurst football team capture a Class I Long Island championship this year.

We are saddened by the passing of long time Suffolk County athletic director, Jay “Doc” Holiday.

Holiday was an athletic director in Kings Park and Islip.

Arrangements for Doc’s wake and funeral have been announced. The wake is Sunday from 2-4 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. The service will be on Monday morning at 11 a..m. at the funeral home.

Services will be at Branch Funeral Home, 190 E. Main St., in Smithtown.

Congratulations to John Glenn’s Nathaniel Larkins for signing his National Letter of Intent to attend and play football at the United States Army at West Point.

Good luck to Nathaniel as he pursues his dreams in representing our nation!
