The Connetquot stands were filled with people adoring purple and they were treated with an impressive win by their hometown team. 

Connetquot had their way with Newfield in one of the most impressive victories on opening weekend. 

Vinny Feraca led the way and looked like a budding star in the process. He missed on just two passes all day and threw for 265 yards and four touchdowns in the 42-6 win.

Feraca connected with six different receivers as he spread the ball around, none more impressive than Nick Mastriano who paced the team with just under 100 yards receiving. He also added two TD catches. Jonas Mendez and Kingston Maugeri also caught touchdowns in the win, with Mendez going for 80 yards on just two receptions. 

Javon Barnwell was just as impressive on the ground with 158 yards and a TD of his own. 

The stands wore purple in support of 'Islip Goes Purple'. It is a month-long initiative designed to unite The Town of Islip in raising awareness of mental health, substance use disorder and celebrating those in recovery. 

Next up for Connetquot will be a tough road tilt against Bellport. Newfield has Copiague on deck.

Is There a New Ace in Town?

The New York Mets have a new ace, and fantasy owners have been accustomed to viewing Freddy Peralta as a near-ace for some time. The move to a more pitcher-friendly park should help, but do not overreach, because the reality is that the lineup around him is roughly the same and the bullpen is likely worse at protecting his leads. Peralta has been a standout for years, and slotting him in as a high-value fantasy arm is easy. The question is just how high he should go.
