Two interesting pieces of news today on the New York State Sportswriters Association website.

First, a New York State High School football All-Star game will take place on June 6 at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse. It replaces the old New York-New Jersey game that used to take place every year, but has since disappeared.

The game will use an upstate-downstate format and teams will be selected at an upcoming NYS head coaches meeting.

For more information, read this story in the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

The NYSSWA has created a new website: www.roadtoglensfalls.com, which, much like its counterpart for football, www.roadtosyracuse.com, is a must-see destination for information on high school basketball in the Empire State.

You'll find the weekly state polls posted on the new site every Thursday. You can also find lists of records, past champions and view headlines from other newspapers from around the state.

Let's hope they can keep the name Glens Falls in the address from quite some time.
