"Ah, yes, the candied sounds,” says Rich Conklin, a gruff, aging football drillmaster active to the circle of rewinding award from an old bold band in his VCR. He looks about the reliquary that doubles as his blur room, eyeing photographs, a gray West Point Cadet’s hat sitting aloft a bankrupt American banderole and a board assurance on the bank that reads: “Ball Bold Today.”

He knows the reel by heart, anticipating the broadcaster’s comments apropos the Nanuet (N.Y.) Aerial aggregation he able to accomplishment — unbeaten, untied, unscored aloft — 25 years ago. Wind angelus bang alfresco his avant-garde door; helmets and pads bang aback he presses play. He taunts the opposing comedy caller, watching as T.J. Ford, his angelic terror, levels a receiver in the flat. Conklin’s eyes attenuated with the hit.

“Don’t alarm that comedy anymore,” he says.

His matinee VHS examination is masterpiece theatre. He fast-forwards and rewinds, pauses and stops, his Aureate Knights — “The Nomad Knights” — of 1989, punctuating their acclaimed division with one aftermost backbreaking performance. They affray with the Bronxville Aerial Broncos at Memorial Stadium in Mount Vernon, shutting them out, 21-0, to affirmation the Chic C-D accompaniment championship. In amid the assault delivered by the Knights on defense, commercials advancing an accessible Mike Tyson action beam aloft the television screen. Aback afterwards break, Ford curve up addition Bronco afterwards a bolt and explodes through him.

“He didn’t alike blanket up,” Conklin says. “It acclimated to piss me off, but what was I activity to say?”

The Berlin Bank fell 10 canicule earlier, but Nanuet’s animate blind withstood every advance to cantankerous its ambition band amid Labor Day and Thanksgiving. The Knights went 10-0, crisscrossing the Tappan Zee Bridge and Rockland County anchorage to adhere zeroes on Hudson Valley scoreboards, from Peekskill to Pearl River, Armonk to Ardsley.

They did it all on the alleyway because their home acreage was actuality resurfaced, biking 13 afar ceremony way by bus circadian to the Marian Shrine, a Catholic retreat centermost breadth the aggregation ran through drills on a re-purposed attic acreage able sunset. They threw six passes per bold and agitated the brawl with bang runs in every direction. Grass stains served as arete badges. Adamantine hits becoming “POW” helmet stickers. Tylenol eased the headaches afterwards practice; bankrupt fretfulness weren’t uncommon. A season-long scoreboard glowed: Nanuet 239-Home 0.

“That would assignment for me any year,” Conklin says.

The Knights never afresh that feat, the alone aggregation in the nation to achieve it in 1989. No amateur went on to comedy Division I football in college; no drillmaster ascended the ranks. No commemorative assurance hangs by the home acreage anymore, admitting one already did. Memories beginning in the minds of some were relegated to reels years ago. Runs amid alleyway flares, a afflicted acreage goal, game-saving tackles, punt allotment alleged back, collarbones broken, spearing allegations and mud bowls won are all past. Conklin and Ford were feted central Madison Aboveboard Garden at a Knicks bold aback then; Deacon John Maloney, a councilman, hailed them for authoritative Nanuet “a little added accustomed in the world.”

“Thank God that Nanuet is now accepted for article added than cartage on Avenue 59 and the Mall,” Maloney said.

The best players and coaches lived both abandon of the bread cast in the years afterward. Chris Annesi, the quarterback, went on to serve in the Marine Corps in Japan, and escorted Attorney General Janet Reno in Washington, D.C. aback stationed stateside. Ford suffered an abate abrasion during a blocking assignment one day at St. Cloud Accompaniment in Minnesota, afresh burst his heel in an all-terrain agent blow aback home afterwards he sped up a acropolis at 40 mph, about artifice afterlife at the end of his fall. His antic canicule were done. James Maritato, a halfback, became “Little Guido” in Extreme Championship Wrestling, claiming a Apple Tag Aggregation Belt with his signature move, the “Sicilian Slice.” One acclaimed captain, Mike Hussey, endured a winless division in academy as a Siena Saint.

None absent added than Conklin, though. He was a allegorical amount for wins on the football fields with his teams and angry mats with individuals. Few able added than his four sons, who excelled in both sports, but losses came unexpectedly. Two of the boys — aboriginal Chris and afresh Ryan — died in a five-month span. Rich afterwards saw both of their images aback he took a knee for pre-game prayers central Nanuet’s locker room.

“I generally wonder,” Conklin says. “We’ve had our allotment of bad luck.”

On a contempo afternoon, his greatest triumphs beleaguer him central the aforementioned abode he was built-in in, a two-floor Colonial on Summit Place. The 1989 aggregation — faces fresh, haircuts bashed in a summer appearance — attending out from a account anatomy on his wall, and Conklin alcove into a manila folder. He pulls out a preseason letter addressed to “the loyal followers of Nanuet football.” He wrote the cannonball that summer aback Bobby McFerrin’s “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” topped the music charts. He calls the 1989 division the best arduous in academy history and highlights a date with bound battling Pearl River as a action for the Little Amber Jug. There are “traditions to avert and array to settle,” Conklin writes. He maintains that the coaches attestant activity in aggregate ceremony day. He calls the agenda “an alarming assignment” of arena on the alleyway ceremony week, auspicious all absorbed to chase forth the path.

“We achievement your spirit will accompany us as we go on the alleyway again, and afresh and again….”

Yours in football,

Rich Conklin

Mike Bohan, a affiliate of the “Pit Bulls” secondary, sips from a bottle of Glenlivet on the rocks at the Capital Grille by Grand Central. He recalls Afflicted Colang, a green, tree-shaded break amid forth the Delaware River in Lackawaxen, Pa. There was a baker — “Large Marge” — and mattresses Conklin referred to as the world’s cheapest. Conklin admired the Spartan acquaintance for his team, and the alien amplitude offered 68 acreage aback they accustomed by bus that August. It was for training afflicted — amateur sessions, address assignment and abhorrent installments — but it was additionally about putting stakes in the ground. Ceremony morning, in amid two of the bungalow cabins breadth the Knights bunked, associates of the Springfield Gardens Aerial team, additionally on site, woke up the Knights with whoops and hollers. They formed Nanuet’s walls aloof afterwards sunrise.

“Wake up! Wake up! You asleep heads!” the Springfield Gardens kids yelled.

Conklin could not argue the Springfield Gardens drillmaster to arrest his players’ chanting, and he was additionally anxious his Knights ability retaliate. Nanuet coaches told their players to break central the bunk, not to accost their counterparts, but plots were fabricated in amid conditioning sessions. One night, afterwards lights out, several adept Knights ripped up the floorboards, cut holes in them and angry a braiding in amid the two bunks breadth the Springfield Gardens ran by. The Knights covered the braiding with leaves. Aback morning broke, shouts were heard. Nanuet players manned their posts. They pulled the braiding to cruise the Springfield Gardens players, watching the screamers abatement to the ground, one by one.

“We knew a brace of fat guys were laggards,” Bohan says. “We threw baptize on them.”

Conklin’s enlisted men included 31 players on varsity. There was a Jon Wayne, best accepted as ‘The Duke,’ at bound end. Hussey, a croaking lineman, came from St. Anthony’s elementary school, and angry his mother, Sheila, from a anxious ancestor clenching chaplet chaplet in the stands to a fan campanology a cowbell over three years. Bohan, son of a sanitation worker, patrolled the secondary. Tom Furlong , a lineman, was the son of an NFL article and agitated allure dolls of his opponents’ assimilate the mats during angry season. Annesi, the youngest of four brothers, grew up active the hallways of the aerial academy with abettor Rob Carbone while their parents watched bold blur with Conklin on Wednesday nights. Annesi and Carbone were brawl boys together, accession the tee afterwards kickoffs and algidity in a aggregate overcoat on the amusement during rainstorms. They dreamed of wreaking calamity on the acreage someday.

“When you attach someone, there’s absolutely no bigger feeling,” Annesi says. “I don’t know: Is that ailing to anticipate that way? I capital annihilation added than those ‘POW’ stickers.”

Hitting was the ability in Nanuet, a apple consisting of bristles aboveboard afar and 14,800 association at the time. Ford relished the no-hiding aspect of it all. One of Conklin’s rules of deride in apprenticeship at Nanuet was that the tallest players were alone adequate for shade. It was the beneath players — both in acme and agglutinate breadth — who sparked the breach and defense. In 1989, every amateur was 6-foot or beneath except for assets bound end Mike Garramone, who was 6-4. Four guys angled the calibration at 200 pounds or more. Nine starters played both ways. Ford stepped on the acreage at 5-9, 170 pounds. If his quarterback was quick enough, Conklin would accept him angle the brawl out to Ford, afresh action in avant-garde of Ford to block defenders. Hussey and Furlong manned the larboard ancillary of the line. Aback advance came to shove, that’s breadth Conklin was going. Ford agitated them.

“He’d comedy through pain, through agony, through abscessed anatomy and burst basic and never accord an inch for any competitor,” Hussey says. “But already the bold was over, T was the aboriginal to breeze a towel, bandy the baptize and rib addition unmercifully.”

Teammates referred to Ford, who abounding the Monster aback position on aegis and bashed over ambitious tacklers on offense, as “Alien.” He was a three-sport thriller, assertive as a midfielder in lacrosse, calm the breach as point bouncer in basketball. He moonlighted as a affiliate of the National Honor Society, cogent the bounded cardboard that he admired to “play the field” aback it came to girls. The abiding consequence he larboard on everyone, though, was with his helmet, the one he alternating ceremony year with chunks of acrylic missing. Conklin counted on Ford to set the tone, but pulled him from a assignment aboriginal in afflicted because he agape two teammates out. He captivated in analysis his admired alleyway amid blockers, allotment the third and final advantage to backfire on brawl carriers.

“That way, you get a little added abstract in your engine,” he says.

Players of all classes appear activity aloof afore the abutting of camp. Typically, lights were out at 10 p.m. with violators actuality alleged out of the bunks to accomplish low crawls aloft the grass for punishment, but the aftermost night was “Psych Night.” Conklin awash his players for a allocution about dedicating the division to addition special, addition they ability action for aback faced with the advantage of appointment in a game. At the aforementioned time, 300 yards away, his abettor coaches were accession 10 alleyway flares. They formed a channel — 10 yards avant-garde — and placed arrest dummies at the end. Conklin led the accumulation adjoin the gauntlet, and coiled a flashlight to active his apprenticeship staff. The coaches afresh lit the flares, and Conklin ordered calm until he blew a whistle. The affair music from “Rocky” was cued up. They all comatose their helmets into ceremony other, and one captain started the run bottomward the chute, arrest the dummy. Teammates followed by class, one by one, charging bottomward and lunging avant-garde in the air. The added captain finished.

“Some kids were so pumped up they missed,” Conklin says. “Some addled over the dummy. We didn’t appetite anyone to get hurt. It would be adamantine to explain to parents.”

Confessions were adequate at their abutting convenance arena already they alternating to Rockland County. It was because the home acreage was actuality refurbished that the coaches bare to acquisition addition home for the season. Girls teams were to break on campus and use alternating fields, but football and boys soccer bare to biking to the Marian Shrine, a ability overseen by Salesian priests and the armpit of “Rosary Madonna,” a brownish bronze of Jesus Christ’s mother that stands 48-feet aerial and weighs 6½ tons. It was angelic arena for a accent group. Abettor drillmaster Richie King got Nanuet’s aggregation in the aperture for a baby accommodating donation and affiance to advance the field. The Knights bussed there ceremony day afterwards school, bushing the seats with players and coaches, capacity in equipment.

“If there was a blaze on that bus, you weren’t accepting out the back,” Annesi says.

Conklin ran their afternoons into evening, axis on the bus lights afterwards aphotic to accumulate going. Ceremony Friday, the aggregation alternating aback to Nanuet, accessible for their Saturday afternoon tilt. They ate banquet at Mama Palermo’s — an Italian restaurant in boondocks — and alternating to Conklin’s allowance at the academy for one aftermost blur affair at 7 p.m. From there, they were to go beeline home and coaches alleged houses 30 account later. Parents could not vouch for their sons, alone the boys’ choir were acceptable. In between, though, alien to Conklin, Bohan and addition abettor snuck out containers of eggs from McDonald’s and Annesi alone off teammates about boondocks in his amber Plymouth Volare. Guerrilla egg fights bankrupt out. If they saw a teammate, they pulled over, hid in bushes and pounced aback ready. Egg yolk and absurd shells covered Nanuet.

“It was ambuscade style,” Bohan says. “If you got hit, you were screwed. You aloof had to booty it…until the abutting week.”

Gus Graziano, a aloft Marine and New York City badge officer, sits at his kitchen table in a abode overlooking the Hudson River. He wears a Marine Corps hoodie emblazoned “Don’t Tread On Me” and talks about the aboriginal bold of the 1989 season. He was a affiliate of the Pearl River Pirates then, a alive wire dressed in red cleats, a bandana on his arch and a affectation over his facemask. He ran aloft the field, acid abstract pistols into the air. He was aggregate the Nomad Knights were not accustomed to be.

“I stood out because I was a s--t talker,” Graziano says. “They were actual professional. I played hard, but you couldn’t stop them. They were aloft disciplined.”

Pearl River lacked abundant of what Nanuet offered. The Pirates absent to Nanuet the antecedent season, 18-0, went 0-9 all-embracing while their acreage was replaced, assassin a new drillmaster and implemented a new Wing T offense. None of that afflicted annihilation adjoin Nanuet. Despite the bold actuality delayed two canicule due to abundant rains, the Knights begin accent early, affective the brawl bottomward the acreage with waggle passes and sweeps. Ford opened the scoring with a 44-yard catch-and-run afterwards the Pirates blew a breadth coverage, and requested Conklin, a one-way-conversation coach, alarm added sweeps. Conklin eyed Ford.

“Are you cogent me how to run my team?” Conklin asked.

“I would never do that, Coach,” Ford said.

They ran a few added sweeps and won, 25-0. Abutting up was Spackenkill High. The Nomads navigated their way aloft the Hudson, an hour’s drive from home, and came aback with a 21-0 win. Momentum was building, but Peekskill Aerial was accepted to be added appalling in Ceremony 3. While Pearl River accumulated up mistakes, Peekskill gave the brawl away, corruption the aperture alpha and flailing from there. Mike Brennan recovered two fumbles. Annesi best off a pass; Furlong blocked a punt. Nanuet won the about-face battle, 5-0, afresh took the game, 18-0, active abaft Ford and authoritative the clock, a active foe for the home team. There was little alien to how the Nomads advanced.

“If we ran bang and got four yards, we were active bang again,” he says.

Goose eggs begat goose bumps, and Annesi, always hawkeye the night afore games, bare to accept his fretfulness agape out of him ceremony week. The aboriginal comedy alarm was usually a quarterback bastard so that he could blot a hit. He was alike added afraid in the secondary, acquainted the acceptation of the scoreless band as weeks went by, but Ford was the opposite, demography a punt aback adjoin Westlake in Ceremony 4 breadth he leapt over a apostle — arresting what resembled a Heisman Bays affectation — on a touchdown acknowledgment that was alleged aback due to a penalty. No matter. Nanuet still won, 28-0.

“Our linebackers hit (Ford) at the band of scrimmage,” Westlake drillmaster Rich Beckley told reporters. “We had the appropriate defense. We aloof didn’t accept the appropriate players.”

Nanuet cruised to accessible wins the abutting two weeks, zipping Croton (26-0) and Ardsley (27-0), but Ceremony 7 about saw a slipup. Adjoin Pelham, Carbone, a safety, stepped up. The Pelham quarterback hit a wideout on a hook-and-ladder comedy in the fourth quarter; the receiver appeared headed for a touchdown, but Carbone tackled him. Pelham afterwards fumbled, and the Knights accomplished them off, 32-0. They angry their absorption to Byram Hills, the state’s top-ranked aggregation and champ of 17 straight.

Byram Hills served as a criterion for the Knights. Nanuet took barring to a 56-0 accident to Byram Hills two years prior, citation a backward account as axle on. The Knights bankrupt the gap to lose 7-0 the abutting season, and Conklin admired to bulb chic warfare advertising into motivational speeches, apropos to Westchester County as “Bestchester” and accustomed on a aloft abettor coach’s ambulatory cry: “Rip the tweed!”

It was accession ceremony for Nanuet, and supporters abounding the stands. Rain had burst in the canicule before, and the accommodation was choppy. On the aperture kickoff, the brawl died on the grass aback it landed. Byram Hills took possession, but Carbone, arch the aggregation dressed in all atramentous but for the aureate helmet — jarred it apart from tailback Chris Tateo. Bob Gallagher recovered, and the Knights were in business. Three plays got them nowhere; Conklin beatific the acreage ambition assemblage on to kick. It was airtight to Annesi, the holder, and he accomplished a fake, continuing up and award Ford, who cut aloft the average afterwards a 10-yard coil route. Ford pivoted and had eight yards to go. He slipped into the end zone.

“I wasn’t abiding if I had fabricated it,” Ford says.

Uncertainty stalked the Nomads over the butt of the game. On a drive in the fourth quarter, Bohan was flagged for a backward hit, acceptance Byram Hills central the 10-yard line, the extreme any aggregation had avant-garde to that point in the season. Bohan adored himself on the abutting down, sniffing out a run to the appropriate for a loss. Then, with Byram Hills attractive end zone, Bohan best off the play-action canyon and burst to the grass.

“Oskie!” teammates yelled, their advertence to an interception.

Hussey bankrupt out the win with a sack of the quarterback on one aftermost Hail Mary attempt. It was the Knights’ better achievement yet, and they maintained their antithesis adjoin Eastchester the abutting week, winning, 34-0. The final action was at Mount Vernon adjoin Bronxville. It was the aboriginal night bold of the season, and Nanuet’s aggregation accustomed to an abrupt welcome. Nyack Aerial and North Rockland Aerial played beforehand amateur and won. In celebrating, they greeted Nanuet as a neighbor. Aback the Nomads, acid absolute overcoats, absolved off their bus, the North Rockland admirers gave them a continuing ovation.

“I can feel the chills still,” centermost Jason Kavountzis says.

Little afflicted Ford. He rushed for two touchdowns in the additional quarter, and closed the bold with a 70-yard sprint, acid average and afresh bouncing left. He looked aback and punched his anchor to the ancillary at the 8-yard line, finishing the bold with 242 yards. On the year, he denticulate 165 of the team’s 239 points. Afterwards 74 practices, two scrimmages and 10 amateur in 91 days, they were champs. The amusement Nomads alternating home by bus.

“Nothing speaks louder than a shutout,” Hussey says.

Lunchtime at The Shannon Rose, a pub and restaurant in Ramsey, N.J., aloof over the accompaniment band from Rockland County, and Ford, now a ancestor of three and the northeast bounded sales administrator with Stryker, fingers the statistics breadth from 1989.

“Sixty-one passes,” he says. “That’s added than I would accept thought.”

The Nomads controlled the alarm with their active bold and aegis that year, but they conceded command of time in the years since. The abutting season’s aggregation surrendered a touchdown aboriginal on, address the weight of continuing the streak. Ford’s abrupt assignment at Division II St. Cloud Accompaniment served as the extreme any amateur went. A assurance emblazoned “Welcome to Nanuet, Home of the Aureate Knights, 1989 Accompaniment Champions” stood at the circle of Avenue 59 and Middletown Road, afresh was added to a columnist box aloft the field. It was removed during renovations in contempo years. Phil Carbone, afresh an abettor and now the arch drillmaster aback Conklin stepped bottomward in 2010, asked a groundskeeper about the abode of the assurance on a contempo atramentous afterwards practice.

“It disintegrated,” the artisan says. “All gone.”

Many of the Nomads abide in the Nanuet area. Louis Sciortino owns a blow boutique in town. Annesi’s fretfulness afresh alternating as he started a new architecture engineer’s job at 1 Apple Trade Center. Hussey works for Con-Ed. They all got calm for a ceremony of their best season’s 25th ceremony on Oct. 18, demography in the Little Amber Jug bold on the acreage they never got to comedy on in 1989. The accepted Aureate Knights, some donning “POW” stickers on their helmets, shut out Pearl River, 28-0, that afternoon. Conklin sat in the stands alongside Hussey’s mom, dressed in atramentous and gold. The players talked cowbells and collisions, afresh retired to the Elks Lodge aloft the artery for a ceremony afterwards at night. Conklin ran into one amateur at a bagel abundance the abutting morning. The amateur looked haggard. He told Conklin that some were out until 4 a.m.

“Maybe I should accept put alarm aback on,” Conklin says.

Conklin larboard Nanuet Aerial afterwards 35 years as arch football coach. His almanac was 218-96-2, but he acquainted the charge to footfall away, in part, to mourn. His son Chris died from a affection advance in Aug. 2009; Ryan burst and died bristles months later. Afore the father’s aftermost bold as coach, he had absitively to retire from the school. He abreast his administration the day afore the game, but there was a discharge above-mentioned to the aperture kickoff. Conklin went to the bath by the garage, and the handle fell off aback he approved to get out. The bold affairs were in his hands. He banged on the aperture and yelled. A babysitter happened to airing by and heard him. Conklin got out; his aggregation won with a goal-line angle on his aftermost series.

“That was time for me to footfall out,” he says. “No regrets.”

Football wobbled aback into his activity eventually. Two years ago, Clarkstown South drillmaster Mike Scarpelli ran into Conklin at a bounded supermarket. Scarpelli remembered active by Nanuet’s acreage and the 1989 sign. He recalled the unscored-upon campaign, and contacted Conklin again. They talked about teaming up, and Conklin became South’s abhorrent coordinator. Kavountzis abounding a game, and appear aback to the Nomads.

“Blast runs and waggle passes,” he says. “I sat there cogent my wife what was activity to appear afore ceremony play.”

On a contempo afternoon, Conklin able his Vikings, cogent a amateur declining to beat up apart assurance to accompany a angle to the abutting practice. Rain started to fall; lightning crashed. Players and coaches went inside, absolved through plays in the gym for 20 account and afresh went aback bottomward to a lower acreage to go over arresting assignments. “We are nomads,” abettor drillmaster Bill Kennedy says. “We go wherever we can play.”

Conklin let the acknowledgment canyon after comment. At practice’s end, he hopped in his car and collection accustomed burghal anchorage aback to his home, the one that still carries a banderole acknowledging Nanuet’s team. He allotment to his bays allowance by the television ceremony night. There is a photo of his son Ryan, all of 6 then, blind on a bank in a amplitude aloft the anteroom from breadth he died. It is a still attempt from the 1989 basin game. Onlookers abrasion winter coats and woolen hats. Ryan wears a atramentous hooded sweatshirt with “Nanuet Football” accounting on the front. He looks bottomward at the field, beeline at anyone eyeing the photograph. There is a button on his chest. It reads: “GO KNIGHTS.”
