If the PrimeLink tickets are part of the season package, what are the odds and what is the process of getting tickets to the PL tourney this year?

They've always been part of the season ticket package. If they use the same process, it will mean getting on to Plattsburgh's ticket website at 9am the Monday before the tournament and hope you have a fast internet connection if you want multiple seats together... Which is still better than the previous system of "drive to Plattsburgh and hope for good luck"

I am glad to hear that Moffat is coming back, but isn't he leaving Castleton kind of late in the game? Is the current assistant Mike Coppola leaving of his own accord or being pushed out? Interesting development this late in the off season.

Really glad to see that Mof is back, but I'm sure I'm not the only one to be wondering just what caused this to take place.

The only hint, is "Emery stated. "We are very fortunate that he was interested in coming back." This leads me to think that they weren't planning an a last minute change. Hopefully Mike Coppola has an obvious potential opportunity - that he doesn't want spilled yet.

Not only is it his comfort zone, he also already has a significant vested interest in the NYS retirement system.

Steve is only a little more than 9 years younger than Bob, turning 43 on Sept 6 (Bob Emery turned 52 on March 4, so I find retirement is not too likely yet - a career change perhaps).

Cancer patient to get trip to see Yankees game, meet players {Courtesy of the Plattsburgh Press-Republican Aug 18, 2016}

PLATTSBURGH — Matt Thompson of Plattsburgh and Theresa Kempisty of the FitzPatrick Cancer Center have agreeded to disagree about their favorite baseball teams.

Thompson loves the New York Yankees, and Kempisty is a Red Sox fan.

Their rivalry began two years ago, when Matt began treatment at the Cancer Center for Hodgkins lymphoma.

“Matt’s infectious smile and hugs are always welcome, but what I love most is his undeniable love of the Yankees,” Kempisty said in a news release from the hospital.



TRIP TO NYC

To demonstrate her affection, Kempisty just spearheaded an effort to get the Plattsburgh man to not only see a Yankees game in New York City but to meet some of his favorite players.

Working with the Dream Foundation, the only dream-granting organization for adults, the FitzPatrick Cancer Center team was able to make Matt’s dream come true.

He and his parents will be in New York next weekend when the Yanks take on the Baltimore Orioles.

Kempisty was quick to point out that many people were involved in granting Matt’s wish, from the colleague who showed her the Dream Foundation brochure to the co-workers who helped complete the extensive documentation.

All were gathered at CVPH Thursday morning to see the surprise presented to Matt.



'KIND, GRACIOUS'

“Life throws many people a curve ball, and this young man has been thrown a few unfortunate ones,” Kempisty said in a letter written to the Dream Foundation about her friend, who also has Down Syndrome.

"Matt always remains kind, gracious and humble," she wrote.

When asked how he felt about the gift and being able to meet the players, Matt said, “It’s an honor.”

“Theresa is an unsung hero to us,” said Matt’s mother, Jane. "Everyone here has been wonderful."

“When people heard about Matt’s diagnosis, they asked us where we were taking him," said Matt's father, Mark.

"We said, 'Right here, where he can get first-class care and everyone is so caring.'”

It looks like Emery will be joined by TWO former Cardinals as assistant coaches this season!

Twelve?

Dear Season Ticket Holders,



Coach Emery asked me to pass along the following information to you:



Join the PSU Men’s Hockey Team for a one-day Ball Hockey Tournament to raise money and awareness for the “STOP Domestic Violence” program through our partners at Behavioral Health Services North. Watch or participate. There will be raffles, and the opportunity to meet and greet all 12 new players.



Saturday, September 17 beginning at 9am, Field House Gym
