Bonac boys host Amityville at the track on Friday, the Hither Hills Trails Half-Marathon is Saturday in Montauk, and the baseball team faces Rocky Point here on Tuesday.

Despite being bageled by the St. Anthony’s Friars, an undefeated senior-loaded rugby side, the Section XI Warriors “were scrappy as hell,” Kevin Bunce, a co-coach of the team, said. “I think we played really good. We didn’t quit.”

Ryan Fowkes, Bonac’s top distance runner, who’s headed to George Washington University on a partial running scholarship in the fall, won the 2,000-meter race at Port Jefferson’s Steeple Fest Plus late last month.

The South Fork Islanders, a combined team coached by Matt Babb of Southampton High, beat Brentwood 9-6 here last Thursday and now have a record of 2-10.

When a longtime spectator said he hadn’t seen so many hits in 10 years, Vinny Alversa, who’s in his third year coaching East Hampton High’s varsity baseball team, said Saturday’s display here versus Hampton Bays had surprised him a bit too.
