Overall Comsewogue, Miller Place, Rocky Point, and Shoreham are not in the same class as the teams at their high schools in the mid-late 70's to mid 80's. Why is there such a difference now? | |

Austin, Read (all of them), Hogan and his gang - all at Miller Place in the late 70's early 80's with Brown, Sommerstad, and Burke as coaches. Best team was Romeo's Comsewogue 78-79 team with Jacobs, Barlow, and that group. | |

Kids actually got cut from high school teams who could really play. All the Miller Place, Port Jeff, and Comsewogue coaches were always working with kids at the Comsewogue morning program and watching closely at pick up games down at the Harbor. AAU was unnecessary at that time. | |
