Massapequa's Championship Tuesday
Girls soccer, field hockey, boys and girls volleyball each play for Long Island titles Tuesday.

Welcome to Sportstown USA.
Massapequa High School sports teams have had a remarkable fall. It comes to a head Tuesday with four programs vying for Long Island championships.
Hurricane Sandy compressed the playoff schedule, which made this year's title runs that much tougher to pull off thanks to back-to-back-to-back games. The gruelling run continues.
