Wilkes-Barre, PA – Allegra Hanover went into the $50,000 Bobby Weiss Series Championship for 3-year-old pacing fillies with two wins and a nose loss in the preliminaries; the filly who beat her was Strutsville, who was the only horse who won all three of her prelims.

But Allegra Hanover drew the inside for Monday’s (May 5) Weiss finale at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania and Strutsville had post seven – quite the reverse from their last meeting. The wagering public flocked to Allegra Hanover, and they were rewarded when the daughter of Papi Rob Hanover came away with a 1:52.2 victory over her archrival.

Sweet Odds (also a two-time prelim winner) and Strutsville were fastest away from the gate, with the latter claiming the point, but Allegra Hanover was already out and moving frontward for Dexter Dunn by the :27.4 quarter. Allegra Hanover got command, and nobody was eager to challenge her through midsplits of :56.2 and 1:24.1. Strutsville (to the outside) and Sweet Odds (to the inside) took their shot in the stretch, but Allegra Hanover won by a length over the potential pocket rocket, with Sweet Odds another 1½ lengths back.

Allegra Hanover posted only one victory at two, but that win gave her a career best clocking of 1:51.3. The filly is now four-for-five (plus the nose loss) this year, and that lifetime standard may not be standing much longer for the filly, trainer Gareth Dowse, and the ownership of Martin Valentic, T G Stable LLC, and Bill Boyce.

AIA Peconic recently recognized architects at the 2025 Daniel J. Rowen Memorial Design Awards for outstanding work completed on the East End.

During the awards celebration at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor on Thursday, April 24, AIA Peconic, the East End’s chapter of the American Institute of Architects, presented six awards for design as well as the third annual AIA Peconic Community Award.

In the Architecture category, the Honor Award — the top award — went to Paul Masi of Bates Masi + Architects in East Hampton for Mohegan Trail on Block Island.

According to the project synopsis, the house is a 45-foot-by-45-foot square, gabled saltbox with the uniquely Northeastern character of an object perched amid a rugged coastal landscape. The project was limited by being on a remote island with no cargo boat or barge access, the synopsis notes, and also had to be durable to withstand violent storms and simple to repair due to limited access to tradespeople.

“This project stood out from the field with an integrated sustainability in the design team’s choices regarding the use of 6” of exterior insulation, simple materials, and an effort to limit the use of any steel in the project,” the jurors commented.

Summerhill Landscapes of Sag Harbor contributed to the project as well.

Bates Masi + Architects also took home a Merit Award. Masi and Katherine Dalene Weil earned the award for Walking Dunes in Amagansett. The home was built 9 feet above grade on a grid of slender metal columns for flood protection and to provide ample height below for outdoor living areas, according to the project description. Steel bars between the columns are designed to provide lateral support while also collecting sand as a sand fence would.

“The home above is arranged in 4 volumes, each…

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins lost to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, 5-2, in their opener to the 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs on Wednesday night at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton is now facing elimination in its best-of-three, first-round series after allowing five-straight goals to their turnpike rival. Alex Bump scored twice in his pro playoff debut for Lehigh Valley, and the Phantoms’ penalty kill clamped down on four-straight Penguins power plays during the second period.

Lehigh Valley scored the first goal of the series when Olle Lycksell cleaned up a rebound at 8:41 of the first period.

Shortly after the Penguins’ fourth power play opportunity, the Phantoms extended their lead to two. Jett Luchanko found Bump loose in the slot, and Bump finished it off at 8:25 of the middle frame.

Rodrigo Ābols buried his own rebound at 13:46 of the second period, making it 3-0.

Bump scored a man-advantage marker at the eight-minute mark of the third, swiftly followed by Anthony Richard making it a 5-0 game 93 seconds later.

Avery Hayes and Gabe Klassen both scored their first pro playoff goals in the last five minutes of regulation, preventing Parker Gahagen from earning a shutout in his Calder Cup Playoff debut. Gahagen ultimately finished with 28 saves.

Joel Blomqvist started the game in net for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, but was replaced at the start of the third period by Taylor Gauthier. Blomqvist notched 23 saves on 26 shots faced, while Gauthier denied five of seven in relief.

The Penguins and Phantoms go head-to-head again for Game 2 of their best-of-three series on Friday, Apr. 25 at PPL Center. Game time is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. at PPL Center.
