Over the last two weeks at Delmarva Now, polls have been released that allowed local high school sports fans to vote for which teams they thought would be the best in Bayside South football, soccer, field hockey and volleyball. And now that voting has closed in each poll, it is time to announce the winners.
In the poll predicting who will be the best Bayside South high school football team in 2026, the Stephen Decatur Seahawks prevailed as winners. 54% of voters selected Decatur to be the best in the Bayside South, as they attempt to defend their Bayside Conference Championship crown for a fourth year in a row. Coming in second place was Wi-Hi, who will look to build on their Class 2A State Semifinal appearance last season.
In boys soccer, the final results were close, with four teams tallying double-digit percentages of the votes. But the Crisfield Crabbers were the winners of the preseason Boys Soccer poll, as they won with 33% of the vote. Parkside came in second place and, James M. Bennett, and defending Class 3A State Champions Stephen Decatur were tied for third place.
Last season in Bayside South girls soccer, the Stephen Decatur Seahawks were able to usurp their rivals James M. Bennett as both Bayside South and Bayside Conference Champions. And according to the fans voting, they expect the Seahawks to do so again this season, as they won 50% of the votes in the poll. Bennett finished in second place in the voting.
Bayside South field hockey is competitive each and every year, with many good teams lining up against each other each fall. For field hockey fans voting in this year's preseason poll, they expect the James M. Bennett Clippers to come out on top as the Bayside South's best. The Clippers won with 57% of the vote, and the Pocomoke Warriors received 30%.

New York City's pied-à-terre tax was designed to extract money from second-home owners wealthy enough not to live in the city full-time. A side effect no one planned for: it's pushing middle-class and working homeowners, people who already live in their houses, into estate-planning conversations they've never had before, at hourly rates they've never had to pay, for advice the wealthy have had access to for generations.
The rush of publicity accompanying the mayor's office highlighting a list of over 680,000 New York properties that could theoretically be subject to a new tax has inadvertently advertised how public most property data is. And it's advertised the benefits of seeking some totally legal privacy, or risk inadvertent doxxing, courtesy of Gracie Mansion.
"The wealthy and the ultra-high-net-worth have been in this game for a long time," said Myles Fischer, a partner who co-leads the Trusts and Estates practice group at Harris Beach Murtha. "The rest are sort of catching up." And that isn't cheap. Many middle-class and blue-collar homeowners are "being forced into a situation where they have to sit down with lawyers" to get planning advice that families with means secured years ago. After all, he added, "it's not that you have to be a rich person to have something worth protecting. We see it from across the board."
The trigger, in this case, was a public records disclosure. When the DOF released its supplemental pied-à-terre ****** sment file, the coverage focused on the penthouses and the LLCs holding them. But the unfiltered file swept in far more than luxury properties—it included modest homes in Bayside, single-family houses in Staten Island, properties whose owners may have had no idea their name, address, and ****** sed value were sitting in a publicly searchable dataset. Many still don't.
Fischer wasn't surprised by the reaction. "Anonymity is desirable when it can be achieved," he said, "but anonymity is also typically only one piece of the pie, so to speak. It's part of the tax plan, part of the estate plan, part of the ****** et protection, limitation-on-liability sort of pie." Privacy, in other words, is the door. The estate planning is what's behind it.

Bayside High football opened practice July 28 before the sun rose as the Bears begin preparation for their third season playing in the Sunshine State Athletic **** ociation.
Last year, Bayside reached the SSAA Atlantic state playoffs for the second year in a row. It finished the season 3-8 after losing to eventual state champions American Heritage (Delray Beach) in the first round.
"I think we had a rough year. We went to the playoffs and played a really good American Heritage team down there. They're heads and shoulders above where we are. That's kind of our goal to be like them," Bayside head coach Billy Miller said. "We feel like in our program we learn from adversity. That's what allows you to grow. When we're able to do that and apply that to this year, we feel like it's going to pay dividends for us."
Miller said he's been pleased with the offseason program and the work the players have put in. The Bears will be young this season with only a dozen seniors on the roster. Consistency will be the key, according to Miller.
"There were flashes last year where we looked really, really good and then there were times that we just looked like we had never seen a football," Miller said. "We've got to find that consistency and teach kids that come in and stack days. It's easy to be good one time, but it's difficult to be good all the time. That's a learned behavior."

It took six years.
To get here, it took whiffing on Damian Lillard, Donovan Mitchell, Kevin Durant (twice), Kyrie Irving (twice), James Harden, Bradley Beal (twice), Chris Paul, DeMar DeRozan and, yes, even Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Yet, with a midnight blockbuster Monday, June 22 that ships Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat, team president Pat Riley proved, once again, that he can deliver a hoops wonder to Bayside. And with that, he appeased a fan base that had started to grumble and wonder if it was time for him to step down. Now, the hard work begins.
Make no mistake: this move triggers immense pressure. With Antetokounmpo in the fold, the expectation becomes that Miami is to compete for championships.
There’s precedent for that, too.
