The Mattituck High School girls volleyball team knows there’s no place like home. So the Tuckers kept telling themselves that, clicked their heels together and their wish appears to have come true.
By wrapping up its regular season Monday night with a 25-15, 25-16, 25-11 road win over Hampton Bays, Mattituck secured second place in Suffolk County League VII. But, more importantly, the Tuckers also earned what coach Frank Massa believes will be a home Suffolk Class B playoff match against Bayport-Blue Point on Nov. 2. READ
The drought ended, the dam burst and a torrent of goals flooded in.

The weather for Friday night’s season-opening football game at Hampton Bays High School was nothing less than splendid — crisp and comfortable. Some thunder and lightning, though, spoiled things for Greenport/Southold/Mattituck.

BAYMEN 16, CLIPPERS 4 (5 INNINGS)
Softball is king at Hampton Bays High School, where both the tradition of winning and the talent pool are deep.
So, the result of Southold/Greenport’s game in Hampton Bays on Friday was hardly surprising. Leadoff hitter Mackenzie Taylor singled, tripled, doubled and walked, and Rebecca Harris drove in three runs as Hampton Bays rolled, 16-4, in five innings. The game was halted after 1 hour 16 minutes because of the mercy rule.
