SCPD raises funds for drug hotline tip rewards By ReBecca anzel The Emporium in Patchogue was filled with almost 600 people on July 28, all there to listen to Billy Joel and Led Zeppelin cover bands, while raising money for SCPD’s Crime Stoppers’ four-month-old narcotics tip phone line, 631-852-NARC. The hotline has already received nearly 900 tips — so much that the SCPD added detectives to investigate leads. The original Suffolk County Crime Stoppers tip line generated a lot of helpful leads, Police Chief Stuart Cameron said, but residents did not realize they could use the number to call in narcotics-related ones. Now, narcotic search warrants are up 100 percent this year, he said, and the amount of reward money given to those who called in tips leading to an arrest was higher than it had been in the past 20 years. The benefit concert raised $55,000 in one night, all of which funds rewards. Donations are the sole way rewards are funded. Michael DelGuidice, a Miller Place resident and front man of Billy Joel tribute band Big Shot, said that the night’s concert was the right way to start fighting the county’s heroin epidemic, but stressed that it needs to be just the beginning of more action. “As parents and fellow Long Islanders, we need to do something,” he said. “It’s going to be a fight, and it’s going to take a lot of collaboration, but we need to think of future fundraising efforts too.”
Teri Kroll’s son Timothy died at age 23 from a heroin overdose on Aug. 29, 2009. He became addicted to oxycodone after a doctor prescribed it to help alleviate the pain from his migraines. When his parents found out, they took the drugs from him and began the process of helping him recover, but they did not know he had turned to heroin. The doctor, Seji Francis, was sentenced to six months in prison and deported after Timothy reported him to police. But during the process of helping her son and the detectives, his mother said there were no resources for her to turn to for help; no other mothers to call. There was a stigma around heroin addiction that there does not seem to be now. “The whole thing was hard on my family, but my son suffered the worst. Speaking out about this is my mom job for Timothy,” said Kroll, who is now the PUSH Coordinator for the Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence. “This event allows us to let our guard down, relax and know we’re doing a good thing at the same time.” She added that if Timothy were at the event, he would be smiling and dancing with whoever was around him. “The room was packed – and Michael DelGuidice gets it, and is willing to speak out on behalf of the disease of addiction and put his time an energy in the fight against what drives this epidemic — the drug dealers,” Kroll said. “The Suffolk County Police Department and Suffolk County Crime Stoppers have made it easy

We are attacking this epidemic from all sides, just what Timothy would have liked to see.” Louis Iacona, president of Long Island Helps Recovery Initiation, said this event was a fun way to raise money and awareness about Suffolk County’s heroin prob-
lem. He struggled with the drug and found there were not a lot of resources available to help him recover. “We need to smash this heroin epidemic to smithereens,” Iacona said. Smithtown resident Nick Santori, guitarist for Led Zeppelin cover band Zofolk, said the band was grateful to be invited to play at such an important event. “We love to partake in such a great cause,” he said. “Crime Stoppers is doing such a great job and we wanted to help in any way we could.” Residents can report tips or information regarding past crimes and drug dealing anonymously by calling 1-800-220-TIPS. Rewards of up to $5,000 will be issued.

Huntington celebrates police-community partnership By Ted Ryan Huntington Town joined communities across the nation on Tuesday, Aug. 2, to celebrate the 34th annual National Night Out, an event that promotes police-community partnerships to help make neighborhoods a safer place to live. This is Huntington’s 14th consecutive year celebrating the event, starting in 2002. Residents flocked to Manor Field Park in Huntington Station, where the Suffolk County Police Department, the Huntington Station Business Improvement District and corporate sponsors Target and 7-Eleven got together to show a sense of unity for the community. This event is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness and to generate support for participation in local anticrime efforts. Vice President of Huntington Station BID Dolores Thompson spoke on why this event is meaningful for the community. “We have forged relationships among law enforcement, government and the community that keeps lines of communication open so when problems arise, we can work together on solutions,” she said at the event. Suffolk County police ran a crime scene investigation clinic and had a demonstration of police dogs in action, demonstrated the department’s GPS tracker, let residents try a distracted driving simulator and explore a Humvee. Police Explorer Tim Beck described what the National Night Out meant to him. “[It’s] a nationwide law enforcement day which connects the community to the

Carolyn Macata was at the Northwell Health stand and said the medical group was trying to bring fun activities to kids that also helped them learn how to stay healthy. “One of the things we’re focusing on today is healthy nutrition for the kids, plus we work with controlling asthma, so we have asthma-related coloring books specially geared toward young children, as to help identify their triggers, learn their medications and work with their doctors,” she said. In light of the recent police shootings in Austin and Dallas this year — among other shootings throughout the country — Supervisor Frank Petrone (D) spoke on how this year’s National Night Out is an opportunity to heal the connection between police and civilians. “This year — especially at a time when the relationship between police and the community is strained in some places elsewhere in the country — it is gratifying to know that here in Huntington, everybody is working together toward the common goals of reduced crime, increased security and better quality of life,” he said. Last year, 38.5 million people from 15,728 communities in states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide participated in this event. Deputy Inspector Matthew McCormack spoke on what his takeaway was of National Night Out. “It’s a get-together where you can come out and meet everybody and celebrate a night out against violence,” he said. “[National Night Out] puts a face on the police department, and a face on the community.”

An ‘effective end’ to homeless veterans on LI Federal gov’t deems Suffolk one of 29 places in nation to successfully address issue By Victoria Espinoza Long Island has joined the ranks of only a select few regions of the United States in bringing an “effective end” to veteran homelessness. The community has a “systematic response in place that ensures homelessness is prevented whenever possible, or if it can’t be prevented, it is a rare, brief and nonrecurring experience,” according to the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness. North Shore legislators and organizations have worked together for the past several years to get an estimate on the number of homeless veterans living on Long Island and to make sure they are aware of all resources available to them. In June 2010, U.S. President Barack Obama (D) signed the Opening Doors bill, which approved a comprehensive federal 10-year plan to end and prevent homelessness. The bill was the first of its kind in the United States. The strategy focuses on many different subgroups of the homeless population, and the first to be tackled was homeless veterans. The goal was to see an end to veteran homelessness by 2015 in accordance with the federal plan, and that is what Suffolk and Nassau counties have achieved. In 2014, the Mayors Challenge to End Veterans Homelessness was announced, which helped unite local leaders with organizations within their communities to help tackle the problem together. It also helped give specific parameters of what a community must do to achieve an “effective end” rating from the Interagency Council on Homelessness. Politicians worked with North Shore organizations including the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless, the United Veterans Beacon House and more. Mike Giuffrida, associate director of the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless said the coalition has been working with other groups to whittle down a master list with names of 748 homeless Long Island veterans in the hopes of reaching zero by the 2015 deadline set by Opening Doors. Once they had the list, the coalition and other nonprofits started informing homeless
veterans of the resources at their disposal. Giuffrida said members of the nonprofit and veterans themselves help with letting other vets know their options. “We always have veterans doing veteran outreach, some of whom were also formerly homeless,” Giuffrida said in a phone interview. Todd Shaw is one of those volunteers. He served in the Army for 13 years, from 1975 through 1988, and found himself without a residence for about five months in 2014. At the time he was being treated as an inpatient at the Northport VA Medical Center, where he learned about Liberty Village, a 60-unit apartment complex in Amityville that provides housing exclusively for veterans. “Timing is everything,” Shaw said in a phone interview of the circumstances that led to him applying and later being accepted into Liberty House. “It’s a very liberating thing to have a safe haven, a place to come home to at the end of the day.” The 61-year-old veteran said he enjoys volunteering with the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless because he is able to give back. “I come from a strong patriotic family,” he said. Both of his parents served in the armed forces. “I feel good by doing good. I thank God everyday there are people that have the compassion to fight for us.” Frank Amalfitano, president and CEO of United Veterans Beacon House, anoth-

He clarified that declaring an “effective who have sacrificed so much to serve our end” does not mean there are zero homeless great nation and their families,” he said. Only two states and 27 other communities veterans on Long Island. “This means there is a system in place in the country have reached this status.

Man arrested for driving boat drunk By Victoria Espinoza Police arrested a man for boating while intoxicated on July 30 after he crashed his boat into a buoy in Patchogue Bay. 5th Precinct officers responded to a 911 call at the Dublin Deck bar, located at 325 River Ave. in Patchogue, where witnesses reported that a man left the bar in a 22foot Sea Ray boat after a dispute and sped away down the Patchogue River at 9:04 p.m. Marine Bureau Police Officers Daniel Smith and Charles Giardella, aboard Marine Kilo, were notified about the fleeing boat and responded to check the area. A 29-foot Response Boat from the U.S. Coast Guard Station at Fire Island also joined the search. While officers were en route, the captain of a passing
ferry contacted the Marine Bureau via VHF radio to report that a boat had sped out of Patchogue River and struck buoy #4 in Patchogue Bay. Smith and Giardella located the disabled vessel with the operator, Erik M. Dowgiallo, and two male passengers on board. None of the occupants was injured in the crash. Dowgiallo, 35, is being held at the 5th Precinct. He is scheduled to appear at First District Court in Central Islip on Aug. 5. Attorney information was not immediately available.

Residential Styles Learn about the home styles in your market and beyond. Our Residential Styles guide includes illustrations, photographs, and detailed descriptions about popular styles. Plus, use our Home Features guide to learn about architectural elements such as dormers, roofs, and arches that make a property distinct.
Art Deco A vertically oriented design includes flat roofs and metal window casements. Neoclassical Neoclassical homes exist in incarnations from onestory cottages to multilevel manses. Bungalow A forerunner of the craftsman style, you'll find rustic exteriors and sheltered-feeling interiors. Prairie Originated by Frank Lloyd Wright, this style can be house boxy or lowslung. Cape Cod A true classic, Cape Cod homes have gabled roofs and unornamented fronts. Pueblo Flat roofs, straightedge window frames, and earth-colored walls typify Pueblos. Colonial An offshoot of the Cape Cod style, it features a rectangular design and secondfloor bedrooms.
Queen Anne Emerging in the Victorian era, the style features inventive floor plans and decorative chimneys. Contemporary Unmistakably modern, this style has odd-sized windows and little ornamentation. Ranch Ranch homes are set apart by pitched-roof construction, built-in garages, and picture windows. Craftsman Full- or partial-width porches are framed by tapered columns and overhanging eaves. Regency The style borrows the Georgian's classic lines, yet eschews ornamentation. Creole A front wall recedes to form a first-story porch and a second-story balcony. Saltbox Its sharply sloping gable roof resembles old-time boxes used for storing salt. Dutch Colonial German settlers originated this style, which features a broad, barn-like roof. Second Empire This Victorian style features mansard roofs with dormer windows. Federal This style arose amid a renewed interest in Greek and
Roman culture. Shed A subset of the Modern style, Shed houses are asymmetric with sloping roofs. French Provincial Balance and symmetry define the French Provincial style, which has a steep hip roof. Shingle An American style that echoes Queen Anne, it has unadorned doors and large porches. Georgian With paired chimneys and a decorative crown, this style was named after English royalty. Shotgun Tradition says that a shotgun blast can trace a straight path from the front to back door. Gothic Revival English romanticism influenced this style, marked by Gothic windows and vaulted roofs. Spanish Eclectic This style has details from Moorish, Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance styles. Greek Revival Entryway columns and a front door surrounded by rectangular windows are characteristic. Split Level A Modern style, Split levels sequester living activities, such as sleeping and socializing.
International The International style exposes functional building elements, including elevator shafts. Stick Decorative horizontal, vertical, or diagonal boards are typical of this Victorian style. Italianate This style has symmetrical bay windows in front, small chimneys, and tall windows. Tudor Tudors have half-timbering on bay windows and upper floors, and steep cross gables. Monterey The Monterey style updates the New England Colonial style with an Adobe brick exterior. Victorian Built during the rise of the machine age, Victorian architecture incorporated decorative details such as patterned shingles. National Rooted in Native American dwellings, the National style is rectangular with sidegabled roofs. 7KH DERYH LQIRUPDWLRQ LV SURYLGHG E\ 7KH 1DWLRQDO $VVRFLDWLRQ RI 5HDOWRUV Š

Fighting an unconventional enemy

High profile drug busts are increasing in frequency in Suffolk County, but the problem might require more creative solutions.
Complex problems call for creative solutions It is no secret that Suffolk County, New York State and the United States as a whole have a rapidly growing opioid, and especially, heroin problem on their hands. Suffolk County is frequently sited as one of the places in New York most susceptible to drug busts and overdoses. It is a complex problem that sometimes feels like plugging holes in a sinking ship with bubble gum to lawmakers and uniformed police officers charged with lessening the impact of drugs on the community. To the Suffolk County Police Department’s credit, they haven’t shied away from trying some outside the box methods to combat heroin and opioid addiction. In April, Suffolk County Crime Stoppers launched an anonymous narcotics tip phone line to help enlist the community in rooting out drug users and sellers in their vicinity. The tip line helped lead to the arrest, in June, of two brothers living in Mount Sinai who had a treasure trove of weaponry, bombmaking instructions, cash and drugs in their home. In July, 24 people were arrested in connection with a drug ring in Hauppauge that yielded four kilograms of heroin and fentanyl. The success of the hotline, which has received more than 900 calls since its inception, proves that the onus is on all of us to do our part in alleviating our community’s drug problem. The department hosted a benefit concert at The Emporium in Patchogue July 28 to raise money for rewards given to those who provide tips to the hotline that result in arrests, and it’s imperative that we continue to support this resource as it has already proven its worth. That’s not to say that without the reward money, you shouldn’t say something if you see something. Community members hold most of the power in their hands to help our officers in cleaning up our streets. Until we as a community recognize that this is a problem for everyone, even if the overdosing teen down the street isn’t a family member, the bubble gum approach will not stop the ship from sinking.

An enemy whose mission is to seek out and slaughter unarmed innocents by any means necessary has declared war on us. Denying this obvious truth is a form of self-deception, that by blurring the single-minded resolve needed to defeat a barbaric foe, will lead to increasingly deadly results. While many understand and prepare to fight a metastasizing, savage, global terrorism, others retreat to some idealistic, imaginary safe space, where “seeking resolutions,” demonstrating and demanding new laws will magically reduce this existential threat. Hoping that holding signs claiming “War is not the answer” or expecting gun-control legislation to be respected by murderous, pledged jihadists is beyond fantasy. It ranks right next to the discredited notion that “gun-free zones” will stop committed, weaponized murderers. Witness the recent carnage in basically “gun-free nations”: Bangladesh, at least 28 killed, in a diplomatic zone, no less; Turkey, 42 slaughtered, 239 hospitalized; Belgium, 32 murdered, more than 300 injured; France, 234 killed, some 600 wounded. Most of that butchery resulted from detonated bombs or, recently, a huge truck. Minus armed rescuers, the casualties would have been much worse. In America, along with guns,
we’ve seen pressure cookers, knives, machetes and hatchets used in Islamic-extremist inspired attacks. But the weapons that proved to be, by far, responsible for the most catastrophic losses of both lives and property were box cutters. An item easily purchased at any hardware store was used by hijackers to take control of three large passenger jets loaded with fuel. When those on the third plane realized their craft was destined to become a deadly missile, they were left ramming the cockpit door with a beverage cart. It was the only offensive option those courageous Americans had available to them. Considering the real world options these jihadists give us, think about whether a utopian or reality-based approach might offer both targeted civilians, and our nation as a whole, the best chance to survive. For example, should we pursue the kind of fanciful and recently decreed unconstitutional call for our congressmen to support legislation to ban “firearms with a capacity of more than five bullets?” Apparently caught up with all their surveys and polls, a peace group couldn’t be bothered to learn that a federal judge and appeals court right here in New York have already ruled that setting even a limit of seven bullets violated the Second Amendment.

Keeping America safe will be a major theme of the 2016 election. Or should we see the obvious facts as they exist, declare we’re in a war and fight it as such. More and more historians are beginning to equate today’s Islamic extremists to Nazis of the 1930s and ’40s. Given that comparison, it’s critical to remember that platitudes on placards didn’t stop Hitler and certainly won’t deter ISIS jihadists. Referring to Germany, FDR prophetically stated in 1940, “No man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it. There can be no appeasement with ruthlessness. There can be no reasoning with an incendiary bomb.” That approach worked awfully well during our last World War.
Jim Soviero Setauket
Who ‘couldn’t be bothered to learn’ the facts? Once again, Times Beacon Record Newspapers gives a halfpage to Jim Soviero’s rambling Tea Party musings. Mr. Soviero certainly shares Donald Trump’s penchant for “innocent hyperbole” when he says that a federal district court judge and an appeals court in New York State ruled that “setting even a limit of seven bullets violated the Second Amendment.” In fact, both judge and court upheld the SAFE Act and its ban on both semi-automatic assault weapons and magazines containing more than ten bullets, but
said that leaving three spaces empty was unreasonable. See: Fred LeBrun, U.S. Supreme Court to decide SAFE Act, Albany Times-Union, October 24, 2015. Who “couldn’t be bothered to learn” the facts? On his only other substantive point, he first sets up an incredible equation between the Nazis, who controlled the largest and strongest economy in Europe and a population second only to the USSR — and the ragtag ISIS which, while certainly as bloodthirsty as the Nazis, controls
a shrinking portion of Syria and Iraq with 10,000-20,000 jihadis; no thinking historian makes that equation. Further, apparently, if like President Obama you don’t want to carpet-bomb a largely innocent, conquered population, you must be as abject an appeaser as the supporters of the 1938 Munich Agreement with the Nazis (including, I should add, the America First Committee).

opinion The blaring battle of the presidential brands
T
he media coverage of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump misses the point. While the race for president is about each person, the process, the scandals, the outrage and the stories that have a life of their own are not about the people — they are about the “brand.” The most passionate advocates for each candidate have defended and supported them, recognizing their shortcomBy Daniel Dunaief ings but urging us to believe each candidate will be better because they just are better — the way any brand with a loyal following just is. Newspapers and advocates of
D. None of the above
each side shout at the top of their lungs about this historic election, offering evidence of Clinton’s inappropriate handling of emails and Trump’s personal attacks. In the latest battle, Trump has taken to the airways to respond to Khizr Khan, the parents of a MuslimAmerican war hero. The question isn’t whether this reveals something new about Trump, the person. It doesn’t. Surely anyone who has watched Trump over the last year or so realizes that his personal style, and the brand under which he is running for the highest office in the land, emanate from a scripted character. He doesn’t let anyone question him or his brand without counterattacking. He has become a talking head in touch with his irascible side. That may be what attracts people to him. There is no political correctness, a term he utters with such disdain that he says it as if he is standing at a podium filled with soiled diapers. The Trump brand
and playbook mandate that a best defense is a good offense. If he’s offensive in the process, who cares? He doesn’t — and on the whole it appears many of his supporters don’t, either. He may have been right that he could shoot somebody in Times Square and not lose votes because outrageous words and actions are a part of his brand. While I don’t agree with the slash-and-burn approach to the personal and political battles he fights, I recognize he’s probably not fighting for the little guy, the medium-sized guy or the big guy so much as he’s fighting for his brand. In a country where products and marketing are so inextricably intertwined, he is the best advocate for Brand Trump. Does being Trump prohibit him from saying “I’m sorry” or “I’m wrong”? Those who hated him before have more ammunition in their battle with him. But what does he care? If they weren’t loyal to the brand and they weren’t his customers, he hasn’t
lost anything. What will cause voters loyal to Brand Trump — or, put another way, those who are angry, fearful or resentful of the Clinton brand — to change their minds? How far can he go before some of those who identify with him decide he shouldn’t become president? Does this pitched battle with the Khans — parents of a slain and decorated war hero — do for the Trump brand what the attack on the U.S. Army did for Sen. Joseph McCarthy? His pursuit of communists damaged and destroyed lives and careers in the early 1950s until Joseph Welch, the chief counsel for the Army, asked McCarthy in 1954 if he had “no sense of decency.” For Brand Trump, decency doesn’t seem to have been a priority up until now. The question, however, is whether those buying the product will care enough about what he says or thinks to force a change in the brand before they, themselves, choose the other brand.
Bullied at a splendid Tanglewood concert
B
ullies come in all shapes and sizes. And ages. I was reminded of that fact this past weekend, when a good friend and I went on our annual Tanglewood trip. Situated in the lush green Berkshire Hills in western Massachusetts, Tanglewood is a beautiful estate donated to the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and since 1937 the BSO summers there and offers outdoor concerts to the public. As a result of their By Leah S. Dunaief presence and the huge crowds that they draw, the greater area of Lenox, including Pittsfield, to Stockbridge and even to Williamstown has developed as a mecca of culture. There are many museums, theater, dance and of course good restaurants throughout the neighborhood, making for a fun-filled runaway weekend destination.
Between you and me
Thanks to the Port Jefferson ferry, Tanglewood is an easy two-and-a-halfhour drive from Bridgeport to one of the many motels that accommodate the thousands of visitors. We unloaded our suitcases on Friday night just in time to drive to our seats in the Shed to hear a Mozart piano concerto, followed by Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 9. Content, we navigated the exiting traffic, which is admirably directed by the local police, returned to our motel room and slept. After a leisurely breakfast, we made the scenic drive to Williamstown and enjoyed a couple of hours in the Clark museum. Their current exhibit, Splendor, Myth, and Vision: Nudes from the Prado, includes works by Titian, Rubens, Tintoretto, Brueghel the Elder, Poussin and many of the other greats of the 16th- and 17th-centuries. These paintings would only have been seen at the time in what were called, “salas reservadas.” These were special, hidden rooms for select audiences, because to display nude bodies was considered sinful and contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church, also to the Spanish Inquisition.

hand, the monarchs were charged with upholding the decreed doctrines and moral values, and on the other, they were the primary collectors of these treasured works of art — especially Philip II and his grandson Philip IV. We left the museum hurriedly to scoot down the road for the Williamstown Theater Festival premiere of “Romance Novels for Dummies” by Boo Killebrew. This delightful play, about two sisters, their relationship and their experiences dating in the big city, was worth the rush to get there. Well acted and staged in a beautiful theater, the play ended just in time for another rush down Route 7 to our seats at Tanglewood. And this is when the bullying began. We were seated near the front, and I began chatting with the man to my right. He told us he was from Maryland and even tried to help me open a container. But his arm completely covered the narrow armrest between us. I laughingly asked him if he had siblings and therefore had learned to share. I suggested we each take half the armrest for our elbows and demonstrated. He had an empty seat next to him,
which I assumed he had paid for since there were no other empty seats anywhere around us. He responded that I should have bought two seats. Then, when the music began, a violin concerto by Sibelius featuring spectacular soloist Augustin Hadelich, he actually pushed my arm off the armrest and jabbed me in the ribs with his elbow. It’s hard to know what to do in such a situation. People around us were entranced by the magnificent music and I wanted to be, too. But I alternated between being absorbed and being discomforted by the man splayed out beside me. I strained to lose myself in the music, and when it ended I considered explaining my plight to the nearest usher. I didn’t want to cause a scene in one of my “happy places,” yet I clearly couldn’t handle the problem. How frustrating. Almost unwillingly, I approached a volunteer usher, who couldn’t help me directly, but he did bring me to a person in authority. That gentleman promptly changed our seats to what turned out to be an even better location, from which we thoroughly enjoyed Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7. Beauty washes away ugly every time.

Stony Brook hoops player is larger than life Jameel Warney signs partially guaranteed deal with Mavericks By Desirée Keegan Jameel Warney’s coaches used to say the player held a basketball like a bowling ball, cupping it with his hand and wrist when driving to the basket. He holds the ball a little differently now. He’s gripping it like an NBA pro. After competing for the Dallas Mavericks’ 2016 Summer League team from July 2 through July 8, Warney, a 6-foot, 8-inch, 260-pound forward, agreed to a partially guaranteed deal with the team, which amounts to a training camp invite. “I always have the utmost confidence in myself and know that if I play hard, I can do whatever I think I’m capable of doing,” Warney said. “When I play well and with a chip on my shoulder, I won’t be denied. It was great to know that I can play with this level of competition.” During five Summer League appearances, he averaged 6.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.2 steals and one block per game. Dallas never ran offensive plays designed to get him open, yet Warney still shot 60 percent from the field. “A lot of hard work went into this and it’s great to get some recognition, but I still have a lot of work to do,” he said. “I was happy that [Dallas] offered to bring me along to training camp, because it’s just another step toward ultimately making my dream come true.” Although his form may not have been there from the start, the now former Stony Brook University star’s previous head coach, Steve Pikiell, said he’s proud of the player Warney has become. He noted the vast improvement he saw in Warney’s game over the 22-yearold’s four-year tenure with the Seawolves. “Everyone says great hands, great this, great that, but he’s just a great kid,” Pikiell said. “How he handled himself on and off the court was just awesome. He’s one of the best I’ve worked with in all of my 23 years of coaching.”
Warney began his basketball career as many young players across the country now do; in the Amateur Athletic Union. “They didn’t think he was going to make it,” his mother Denise Warney said of her son’s coaches. “They said he was very lazy, and he was struggling with the drills and it seemed like something he wasn’t interested in. That all changed in two or three months.” Warney learned from the experience and established a newfound passion for the sport. Within months, multiple AAU teams were interested in the abnormally tall middle school standout. From there, Warney joined the varsity basketball team at Roselle Catholic High School in New Jersey. He graduated as the school’s all-time leading scorer with 1,968 points, and averaged 17 points, 13.5 rebounds, four assists and 3.5 blocks per game as a senior. “For Jameel, whether he’s well, sick or tired, he plays really well,” his mother said. “He just loves the sport.” At Stony Brook, he enjoyed much of the same success. Warney graduated with more victories than any player in school history, and is the school’s all-time leader in points, rebounds, blocks and games played. The Associated Press All-American Honorable Mention also broke Stony Brook records for points in a season and in a single game when he scored 43 against the University of Vermont March 12. Among all the records, Warney was also named American East Player and Defensive Player of the Year after leading the Seawolves to the American East Championship title and the first NCAA postseason berth in school history. He recorded 23 points and 15 rebounds in the first round of the tournament against the University of Kentucky on March 17, though the team fell 85-57. “I saw something in him early on and I was able to help him bring that talent and ability out of him,” Pikiell said. “Mix that in with his hard work, and that’s how he’s gotten to the point he’s at. I know he can play at the NBA level. He has a skill set that everyone could use. He has a great motor, he’s a terrific rebounder, he has great hands, he’s a great passer, he has a tremendous physical ability and he’s an unselfish player. He has a great mind for the game of basketball, and those are attributes that bode well for him to be able to

It’s about — I’ve learned so much,” he said. “I feel like how proud she is of how far her son has come a lot of the people I’ve come across over my not just in the sport, but as a person.
