Liberty High School senior Christopher Rodgers was named to the Class B Section 9/League Football team. 

A team captain, he was a wide receiver, returner and cornerback for the Redhawks. He has played for Liberty for three years.

Chris, the team’s leading score, always led by example, verbally and physically, Head Coach Adam Lake said. “Chris is the perfect example of the standard we are looking for in a Redhawk football player—100 percent effort 100 percent of the time.”

LPD beats LCSD again in annual basketball game; scholarship fund wins

The Liberty Central School District team was looking for its first victory over the Liberty Police Department team in the third annual LPD vs LCSD basketball game on Wednesday, Nov. 14. But it was not meant to be, as LPD kept its winning streak alive. The real winner, though, was the Senior Athlete Scholarship, which earned more than $900 through the event.

Organizer Erin Alvord, a LHS physical education teacher, offered the following thanks:

  • Officer/Coach Lake for organizing the officers and for his continued support of this event.
  • The LPD for their generous donation to scholarships as they have for the last three years.
  • Our LCSD team: Joe Franke, Beth Quatrale, Rich Feeney, Felix Colon, Jenna Genco, Andrew Philips, Jamie Black, Peter Owens, Sonia Lemus, Roothland Medina, Kate Rusin, Jermaine Ferguson, Derek Adams and Dr. Sullivan for showing up and working hard despite the loss.
  • LCSD Coach Dave Philips!
  • The LPD team. Congrats on the win!
  • Ralph Bressler for announcing, singing the National Anthem and keeping the clock.
  • All of our chaperones for helping to keep the event safe.
  • Sarah Davis, Ashley Bury and Paul Voigtland for taking entry fees.
  • The Booster Club for their bake sale and 50/50.
  • Mrs. Bull for taking pics and gathering the Junior class to sell concessions.
  • The officials for coming out long before their season starts.
  • LMS students Montgomery Allen and Grace Fitzgerald for keeping the book.
  • Everyday Apparel for making the staff t-shirts.
  • The community, staff and all the students who came out for the event; and
  • A huge, huge, THANK YOU to our custodial staff for setting up before and cleaning up after.

“As you can see, although I organize this, it takes a village, and I truly appreciate everyone who shows up to play or help in any way they can,” Alvord said.

4 p.m.: Girls JV Soccer vs. Middletown at Middletown High School Upper Field.
Result: Liberty 2, Middletown 2. For the second time this season the girls JV team took Middletown to overtime. The result was different this time though. The Redhawks took an early lead following a clean drive off the left foot of Yarel Diaz Lopez. She was assisted by a beautiful pass through the defense from Genna DeFrank who earned an assist. Later Middletown tied it up in the second half and took the lead off a pair of goals. The Redhawks were determined and continued to press with excellent passing through the midfield led by captains Genna DeFrank and Juanita Garcia Lopez. Their efforts paid off when the Middletown keeper was unable to secure a blast from Gimena Quiroz Ramirez. The loose ball was corralled and expertly tucked into the net by Olivia Corrigan. Cassandra Porter stood strong in the net for Liberty refusing to allow another goal in the contest. The defense of Gwen Medaugh, Brooke Porter and Olivia Tyler turned away any more attempts by Middletown to get close to goal. The game ended in a tie following the overtime.
