Bayport Blue Point girl's lacrosse are the New York State champions after dominating in the final game to win the title. 

Bayport-Blue Point won the Class C state title in a route winning 17-7 over Queensbury at SUNY Cortland this weekend. The Phantoms were on top of their game from the start. They came out of the locker room on fire on both ends of the field. Their offense was in full control and their defense clamped down hard to lead to a 12-2 halftime lead. 

The Phantoms got up quickly with two goals to take a 2-0 lead when Queensbury scored to give them life. That was the last time they had life as that seemed to only anger the Phantoms who then answered by scoring the next nine goals.  

Ava Meyn led the way with a game-high five goals. She scored all five in that nine-goal spurt in the game. Aubrie Eisfeld also had an outstanding game with four goals and three assists to lead the game with seven points. The offense was humming and everyone got involved. Kailey Bruckner had three goals and one assist, Emma Shanahan put two shots in net, Olivia Brady had two assists, Sara Richardt, Liliana Lipuma and Erika Kreuscher all chipped in with a goal apiece while Eva Carvahlo got one assist. Sophia Diaz and Peyton D'Angelo were shut down in goal. 

The Phantoms are ranked eighth overall in the USA Lacrosse High School Girls' National Top 25 poll and finished with a 21-1 record.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
