Our Girls Varsity Girls Soccer team earned another great win on Friday night! Here are some game highlights from Coach Kanofsky:
"The Riverhawks earned their third win of the week Friday evening with a 7-0 victory against Spa Catholic. This game was not only amazing to coach, but amazing to watch as we had goals from 7 different players on the team.
Settling into play very early in the game, the Riverhawks began amazing passing sequences and movement. This gave us the opportunity for two 7th graders, Alexis Baker and Lylah Dishon, to score their first varsity goals of the season. Heading into the second half, the Riverhawks continued their push forward, ultimately scoring five more goals.
We saw goals from Isabella Craig, Maddie Baldes, Savannah Sullivan, Sage Shanahan, and Heather Pita.
Our defense consisting of Ada Carlton, Kerrigan Millis, Arieanna Shannon, and Piper Houser concluded another game of not allowing any shots on net, and keeper, Alexis Hall earned her first varsity level shutout.
We also saw great plays from Daisy Thomas, Erika McGuire, Hailey Shannon, and Bailey Hall.
The progress this team is making with each practice and contest is amazing to see. Chloe Hall and Caitlyn Crossman, two of our center midfielders were pivotal in creating opportunities for us scoring this game.
This victory moves Corinth into 2-2 in the league and 3-2 overall. We are on the road for both games next week, Lake George on Tuesday and Salem on Thursday."
Congratulations, RIVERHAWKS!!!

ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT: In this edition of alumni spotlight, we would like to give a huge shout out and congratulations to 2017 alumna, Morgan Baker. Morgan is currently an Athletic Trainer at James Madison University, helping NCAA athletes stay healthy and pursue their athletic dreams and endeavors!
A little about Morgan:
After graduating in 2017, Morgan went on to earn her Bachelor's Degree in the Science of Athletic Training from James Madison University. She continued her education by earning a Master of Science in Exercise Science with a concentration in Mental Performance.
When asked what she loves most about her job, she responded:
"I have the opportunity to develop great relationships with these student-athletes, and a lot of times I see them most at the lowest times in their athletic careers. Getting to see them be successful off of the field and then having a front row seat to them returning to sport and succeeding is the best part of my job."
When asked what inspired her to pursue this field, she responded:
"Sports have played a large role in my life, and I have been around them as long as I can remember. I competed in 3 sport seasons during my time at Corinth and I knew that I had a strong desire to still be in that environment throughout my career. I was able to find a way to combine being surrounded by athletics and continually challenge myself as no 2 days are ever the same."
Advice to current students and recent alumni :
"If you don’t know what you want to do when you are a senior in high school, that is completely okay! Whether you decide to attend college, join the military, enter the work force, go to trade school, etc., make the best choice for you at the time. Not everyone will have the same path, and chances are, you won’t know what you want to do for the rest of your life when you are 18 years old. If people in your life are choosing to go in one direction, and you choose to go in another, that does not mean that you are behind!"
We are so proud of Morgan and all that she has accomplished already! The next time you see a James Madison University game/match, look for Morgan!!
Thank you to Morgan for sharing her story to inspire current and future students to pursue their goals.

Our Girls Varsity Soccer Team had a huge win last night! Here are some game highlights from Coach Kanofsky:
Our Girls Varsity Soccer Team had a big win last night! Here are some highlights from Coach Kanofsky: "Corinth dominated the field last evening, earning a 6-0 win over North Warren. We took the field with intensity and purpose this evening. From the very beginning, possession and passing were priorities for us. Caitlyn Crossman was able to put away her third goal from a penalty kick about halfway into the first half.
Isabella Craig had two goals, and was able to assist two more for Maddie Baldes and Alexis Hall to ultimately find the back of the net. North Warren battled for possession, but Corinth’s defense remained strong and did not allow North Warren any shots on net.
Kerrigan Millis was able to score the final goal of the game on a direct kick outside of the box, this being her first varsity goal. We are so proud of this group of ladies! Keep an eye on our schedule for our next game!"

It was a great win for the Boys Varsity Soccer Team. Here are highlights from Coach Deso:
Ft. Ann travelled to Corinth yesterday in what would turn out to be a game worth remembering for a long, long time. The energy was high, and the battle raged on from the opening minutes of the contest! In first half action, the Riverhawks controlled the tempo of the game, controlling the midfield, making many fine runs on frame. It would take the team the better part of the first half before they were able to break down the Ft. Ann defensive line.
Tristan Lozier would find a seam for a streaking Tyler Smolinski, who would ultimately beat a defender and blister a shot, which was unable to be touched or collected by the Cardinal keeper. This would ultimately be the only goal of the entire contest.
In the second half, the tension was high! There came a moment in the contest where it seemed that the Cardinals had breached the Riverhawk defense, but Owen Baker made a quick decision to vacate the net, making two consecutive magnificent saves to preserve his first shutout of the season.
With this victory, the Riverhawks continue their winning streak, notching their third consecutive league win, and fourth consecutive win overall, bringing their league record to 3-0-0, and 4-2-0 overall. Most notably, though, is the significance of yesterday's victory for Corinth, as they achieved something truly monumental, and an incredibly important milestone for their program. Dating back as far as any Corinth coach or any player can account for, this would appear to be the first time that a Corinth boys soccer team has ever come away victorious over the Ft. Ann Cardinals. A truly, hard-fought match by both sides this afternoon, and a victory for the ages for the Corinth Riverhawks!

Our Girls Varsity Soccer Team earned the "W" tonight! Here are game highlights from Coach Kanofsky:
Final score:
Corinth-2
Granville-1
"Corinth earned their first win of the season against Granville this evening. Beginning the game strong, Granville battled Corinth’s defense and was able to meet the back of the net early on. To close out the first half, Isabella Craig responded on the attack to put away her first varsity goal as an 8th grader.
Into the second half, Corinth upped the intensity, and maintained the majority of the possession with multiple shots on goal. As a result of a penalty kick, Caitlyn Crossman was able to score her second goal of the season.
I am so proud of every girl on our team, the hard work pays off! Corinth moves on to play North Warren Thursday evening, come out and support!" Way to go, RIVERHAWKS!!!

Collin Vincent won 3-2, Parker Duerr-Clark won 4 and 2, Gage Bardin won his third consecutive match and Reiley Halliday won his match 4 and 3. Great Job team. Next match is vs Bolton on Thursday."
Congratulations, RIVERHAWKS!!!

Our JV Mountaineers Football team had their home opener last night! Here are some highlights from Coach Bowe:
"The JV football team had their first game last night vs. Glens Falls. The boys came out with a lot of intensity at the beginning of the game. They continued to work very hard throughout the whole game. Even though the score did not end up in our favor there were a lot of bright sides to the game. We had some nice touchdowns and drives we put together. The defense forced a couple of turnovers. This is a very young team that will only improve as the season goes along. These boys have a lot of good football ahead. We are excited for our next game. Thank you to everyone that came out and supported us last night."
Keep working hard, guys! We are proud of you!! Photos courtesy of our Riverhawk fans! (Thank you!)

Dear Families,
This week our school community will be kicking off our Positivity Project Social-Emotional-Learning curriculum. This week, we are focusing on the Other People Mindset. This means anything that builds relationships is going to make you happy.
The mission of the Positivity Project is to empower America’s youth to build positive relationships by understanding, appreciating, and exemplifying the character strengths in us all. People who have strong positive relationships do five things consistently - these are the five practices of the Other People Mindset. 1. Recognize the good in other people, 2. Recognize that everything you say or do affects other people, 3. Support others when they struggle, 4. Cheer people on when they succeed, 5. Remain present when giving people your attention. People who have a strong Other People Mindset are able to build and maintain strong, positive relationships with others.
While mental health is incredibly complex, we do know that positive relationships can help people become happier, healthier, and more resilient. And, the Positivity Project believes that educators have a huge opportunity and vital role to play in this endeavor. Our nation’s youth spends a large percentage of their time in school. By deliberately and consistently teaching students that relationships are important -- and that positive relationships are cultivated through character and the Other People Mindset -- educators can roll back these trends and create strong citizens and leaders for our communities and countries.
To practice and encourage the character strength of prudence with your child, please visit the Positivity Project’s P2 for Families where together you can watch a video, read a quote and talk about the answers to the 3 questions.
If you have any questions, please reach out to our SEL/DEI Coordinators, Patricia Siano or Christina Taylor.
Have a wonderful week!

It was a big day on the field for our Boys Varsity Soccer team! Here is a game recap from Coach Deso:
"The Corinth Riverhawks hosted last year's defending league champion Bolton-Warrensburg yesterday morning in a make-up game that was a result of Friday's rainout.
The battle that would ensue would be an epic dogfight, but in the end, the Riverhawks would come away victorious, toppling the Eagles in an exciting double overtime victory.
First half action would test the durability of each team's defense, and neither was showing any vulnerability. Corinth's back four: Wiseman, Hunt, Shanahan and Petteys remained stout and unforgiving, while BW, led by Tyler Trowbridge, showed no sign of willingly conceding a goal.
It would take the better part of 33 minutes before anyone would successfully break through the defensive line. After a scrum in front of the net off a serve from Corinth's Sam Tangora, Logan West would battle for a shot, which would glance off a BW defender to put the Riverhawks up by one at halftime.
Within seven minutes of the second half, BW's Louis Lang drove down the field, pulled the defenders with him, and was able to find a streaking Ben Holcomb to bury the equalizer for the Eagles.
Overtime would see opportunities from both squads, with Corinth GK, Owen Baker and BW keeper, Keith Sonley responding when it mattered to keep the game even. The game winning goal would happen with 3:30 left in the second overtime. Corinth's Sam Tangora would serve up a far post corner kick, a scramble ensued in front of the net, and somehow the Riverhawk's Tyler Smolinski would find a way to will the ball in the back of the net for the game-winning goal.
The Riverhawks have now notched their third consecutive victory, placing them 2-0-0 in the league and 3-2-0 overall. The boy's next game is a big one on Wednesday, September 13th, battling at home against the Ft. Ann Cardinals... come out and show your support!"
Congratulations, Riverhawks!

It was a big night for our Boys Varsity Soccer team last night. Here are some highlights from Coach Deso:
Final score (in second OT) Corinth-2 HL- 1 "Corinth travelled to Hadley-Luzerne yesterday for their league opener under sunny and very warm skies. The onset of the contest brought a stiff battle to win the midfield, and Corinth gained possession and control of the game early on.
Possession and control would not be enough in the equation to produce goals though, at least early on. The Riverhawks were able to penetrate deep into the Eagle defensive end, but were unable to score. The Eagles struck first on a penalty kick, and Corinth would have to fight back from behind in the second half.
The Riverhawks took the field with purpose and were a team intent on evening up the score. Shot after shot would test the Eagle back line and it would be 30 minutes into the second half before Corinth was rewarded for their efforts. A scrum in front of the net ensued, and Tyler Smolinski was able to send it home to tie up the game.
Overtime would arrive, and there was no shortage of intensity. The first overtime would see several exchanges in possession, breakaways on both sides, but no one could find the golden goal. That would come with but three minutes remaining in the second half.
Hunter Shanahan carried the ball down the line where he would beat the defender, serve a beautiful ball inside the 18, which was eagerly greeted by the head of Tyler Smolinski and placed perfectly in the goal to secure the victory for the Riverhawks.
Credit to both teams for persevering through a warm and challenging environment on the afternoon... a well-played contest! Corinth moves to 1-0-0 in league play, 2-2-0 overall, and will take on Bolton-Warrensburg at home on Friday at 4:30... come support this incredibly hardworking team!"
