Welcome to Patch's daily snapshot of sports in Chappaqua and Mount Kisco.

Vipers Are Champs

We thank the Westchester Vipers team supporter for the below submission and congratulate the Vipers on a championship effort:

The Westchester Vipers (playing out of the Westchester Skating Academy in Elmsford) won the Squirt (10 years old and under) Tier 2 NY State Ice Hockey Championship, last night (March 4) in Niagara Falls, NY.

The team, which has been nationally ranked in the top 10 for most of the season, is coached by Westchester residents Judson Selig and Frank Scalia and includes boys from communities throughout Westchester.

The team went 3-0 in the opening round on Friday and Saturday to reach to the semi-final on Sunday where they beat the Bethlehem Eagles (#1 seed from Northern NY) 6-4 before winning the final 3-0 on Sunday evening vs. the host and #1 seed from Western NY, the Niagara Jr. Purple Eagles.

The team finished the season with an overall record of 60-12-4. The tournament was played at O’Dwyer Arena on the campus of Niagara University.
