GC and Manhasset are bitter rivals, but I daresay their fans are civil in comparison to some other rivalries on Long Island (Farmingdale-Massapequa comes to mind!).thedisciple516 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 06, 2023 1:19 am John Fallon and Bob Ford Field are right next to each other up at UAlbany. Is it a good idea to have Manhasset and Garden City fans in such close proximity? Anyway Niskayuna could bring a couple thousand fans seeing as the game is at 6:30 after work. hope GC is ready.

Out of curiosity what would you guys say is the fiersest rivalry on Long Island (for all sports)? From what I gather on these boards it's Farmigdale-Massapequa or maybe St. Anthony's-Chaminade. But unlike the rest of the state there's so many schools in such close proximity to each other that there's so many candidates. Sayville-BBP? Mt. Sinai-Miller Place? Manhasset-Garden City?? Commack-Northport?? Rocky Point-Shoreham?????

The way my mother described growing up there it was Wantagh vs the world! My uncle who surfed regularly at Jones Beach and was a hippy would’ve said the Island vs the Hamptons.
