T-Bird Baseball
Mike will once again be the starting lead-off and Center Fielder for the 2009 Hills East T-Birds this year! What’s exciting aout this year though is that Mike will also be pitching. He has been working with Coaches Belz and Rizzo this winter and they have finally molded Mike into a pretty crafty lefty! Look for Mike to be either a lefty specialist or fourth starter for the T-Birds.
Check out the official Hills East Baseball site made by Head Coach Belz for all T-Bird information. We will obviously only be writing about Mike here!

High School Football for HSE #3 Comes to an End
The T-Birds lost their final game 14 – 6 to the East Islip Redmen. But that’s not the story. Mike had a great day with a 21 yard touchdown in the 1st quarter and also reached a personal best of 244 punt yards (one of which was 70 yards).
Also, Mike stayed on the field after the game and refelcted on his four years of high school football. This chapter is now closed in his life, but bigger and better things are to come when he plays college football. You can count on that!
If you want #3 on your college team, then please contact Mike and the Mike Lykos 3 webmaster at MikeLykos3@gmail.com. You won’t be dissapointed with him playing for you!
This site will take a break for now, but we will post once Mike makes a collegiate decision. Also, blogging will continue come baseball season when he will once again be the Lead-Off hitter and starting Centerfielder for the HSE T-Birds.

North Babylon beats Hills East, but Mike has his day on Offense
Even though the ball wasn’t thrown to him, Mike proved to be the offensive jauggernaut that he his and had 7 runs for 127 yards (an 18.1 average) on Saturday. Hills East played top ranked North Babylon and lost miserably 43-8. However, Mike did have more total yards than NB super-star, Ciwan McCoy. McCoy had 18 runs for a total of 102 yards. But of course that isn’t in Newsday because NB won!
The windy weather conditions seemed to hinder Mike on special teams. But Mike took a faulty snap and ran a fake punt for 45 yards! Also, he had one punt for 40 yards, this gives Mike a total of 533 punt yards and 459 return yards on the season… pretty impressive!
This saturday is Senior Day for the Hills East T-Birds. Come to the game early and see the ceremonies that will include Mike and his fellow seniors. This is Mike’s last High School Football game and he would appreciate it if everyone came out to support #3 one last time!!

If Football Games Were a 1:36 Shorter, Then the T-Birds Would’ve Had a Win!
That’s right the T-Birds lost another tough one to Newfield this Saturday in the last 1:36. Despite the bad ending, the T-Birds had an awesome start thanks to Mike. He started the game with a 97 yard kick-off return, and was stopped at the Newfield 3 yard line.
Once again Mike was limited on offense by the run heavy play calling, but he truly shined on special teams. He had 157 yards in returns, and punted for 142 yards (avg. 35.5). Mike was also one of the leaders on defense this week with 10.5 tackles and 1 for a loss of 3.
Overall all of the T-Birds looked great on Saturday despite the bad ending. Look for the away game at West Babylon to be more evenly matched for the T-Birds.

Mike and some other players on the T-Birds were mentioned in the Half Hollow Hills Newspaper this past week. The article talks about the T-Birds season so far, the Homecoming game, and previews the game versus Newfield.
Here’s a little peek at what Mike said,
“This year’s team has a lot of heart and has great speed and is quick in the skill positions, added senior Mike Lykos.
‘Our ultimate goal this [season] is to make the playoffs…I believe we can achieve this goal…We need to focus on staying as a team and not fighting within ourselves,’ Lykos said.”
