The last regular season week highlights local saints from New York and the capital region. Players had to choose at least one capital region saint with the rest from New York, and they did it faster than Dominos can deliver pizza.
We like to bemoan the "ones that got away" but there have been some good local players over the years. But who chose the best team?
Let's beat 29 votes... should be a tight one this time. Poll closes Wednesday night.

I agree, this was the hardest week by far. The players came prepared and made some great picks. Even with international recruiting Some of the all time greats at Siena we're born And raised in nys.

I changed my pick three times (three different teams) and now I feel guilty about the 4th team. You can certainly make an argument for all four teams. Congrats to Gorvy and our Team Captains for a job well done and all of their efforts.

My dad used to tell me of the exploits of those on Team 4. Love Vernon Asquith but Bob Hermann would have been closer to the eras of the legacy guys.

Two players I thought might be picked are Rod Owens and Tim Hill.

Rod Owens was on my list - unfortunately I got distracted... He was on my list but would have still taken any of Justin Miller, Stuart Downing, Steve Downey, Tay Fisher, Josh Duell, David Ryan, and Monty Henderson over him. And possibly Carm for the name recognition.

I didn't say he was on top of my list, just on it - I would agree with all of your choices as going before him - one of the unknowns going into last night was how many team and how many picks so lists had to be fairly long - one I completely missed was Kojo - didn't realize he was a NY'er...

Rod was def on my list too, especially when i thought it was only local guys at 7:55pm last night! Freddie Daniels, Brian Smith. Dave Carlisle, Eric Fluery and Dinny Cahill were a few locals i thought would make the top 40 players, IF local only.
