Leading off today: Rudy King has stepped down after one season as coach coach of Bishop Loughlin's boys basketball team, The Daily News in New York reported.

   King was 16-11 after being appointed shortly before the start of practice in the fall after Khalid Green took a scouting job with the New Jersey Nets. He was disappointed that the interim label wasn't removed from his job title and that the school was continuing to interview candidates.

   "I thought from us doing well this year that we were going in the right direction," King told the paper. "I thought I earned that right to be here at least another year."

   The paper said sources say ex-All Hallow's coach Ed Gonzalez may be named as his replacement.

   Troy school adds two: Troy Catholic Central appointed Rich Foglia and Audra DiBacco as boys and girls basketball coach, respectively.

   Foglia, who has been a football assistant, strength and conditioning coach and JV basketball coach, replaces Blain Goverski. DiBacco served the past three seasons as the assistant to Chris LaBombard.

   Elba pitcher reaches 1K of K's: Elba senior Sarah Schwartzmeyer struck out 19 Alexander batters yesterday during a 12-0 softball victory to reach 1,002 for her six-year varsity career.

   Schwartzmeyer is No. 4 on Section 5's career strikeouts list and will likely end her career second to Jordan Ingalls (Bolivar-Richburg, 1,326).

   Darkness halts slugfest: Clarence and Lancaster slugged their way to a 13-13 tie in a baseball stopped by darkness

after seven innings. The game, featuring six errors by each team, was a rematch of Clarence's 10-0 victory on April 23.

   Clarence coach Dave Smith joked to The Buffalo News that it was "the worst baseball game ever."

   Girls lacrosse highlights: Junior Addie Reilly tallied 12 goals and an assist to lift Portledge to a 24-17 win vs. Long Island Lutheran. Senior Alex Siwiec also piled up 13 points on seven goals and six assists.

   Jenna Davis moved into fourth place on the NYSPHSAA career goals list with an eight-goal day as Levittown Division scored a 21-12 win over MacArthur. Davis has 333 goals, which puts her 110 behind all-time leader Shari Maslin of Clarkstown North.

   What's your hurry? Hey, I know there are logistics to be lined up, programs to be printed, etc., but did the rosters for the fourth annual Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Classic really have to be announced today — barely halfway through the schedule for New York's best teams?

   The game will take place June 27 at Towson (Md.) University’s Johnny Unitas Stadium, so it raises questions about how many worthy candidates might have played their way onto the 90-person roster in the next month if they were given the chance.

   Extra points: Vestal's 7-0 win vs. Elmira Free Academy on Friday pushed baseball coach Tank Anderson's record to 300-104-1 in 20 seasons. Tim Lewis struck out 16 and walked two in a three-hitter. . . . Kyle Clapper of Saugerties broke the school record in the shot put (53-5) and discus (156-4) on Tuesday.
