Three veteran YPD officers retire

BY NICK TRUJILLO
STAFF WRITER

e Yorktown Police Department is set to see turnover in

their ranks following the retirement of three o cers over the

past two months with a combined 94 years of law enforcement

service.

Lakeland School Resource O cer Lawrence Paniccia, De-

tective William Gordineer, and Detective Tim Tausz have all

departed in the past two months, and their careers have been

remembered fondly through celebrations by the department.

Paniccia began his career at the New York City Department

of Corrections in 1999 and joined the Yorktown Police Depart-

ment as an o cer in 2005. He spent the last 11 on Lakeland

Central School District campuses as the SRO, building rela-

tionships with the students and sta while keeping them safe.

In 2009, Paniccia was awarded the Yorktown Police Depart-

ment’s Excellent Police Duty award for disarming a subject in

emotional distress and was awarded a Life-Saving Award in

2013 for his actions when a subject entered cardiac arrest at

Lakeland High School. Detective Bill Gordineer

was no one who worked

harder and was more e cient

during his run as detective.

He made all of our jobs easier,

especially mine.”

Gordineer managed the

information technology systems and created the YPD’s real-

time hazard tracker, a system to keep the public updated during

times of severe weather.

Tausz committed 40 years to the YPD, serving in myriad

roles that included: general topics instructor, collision recon-

structionist, special patrol o cer, sex crime, and sex o ender

investigator, and the rst drone commander in YPD history.

Tausz also served as the president of the Westchester County

Detectives Association and received the Detective of the Year

award from the association. He helped found the New York

Statewide Accident Reconstruction Association and volun-

teered for the American Red Cross for 35 years.

“You won’t see many more police o cers completing a 40-

year career, as Tausz just did,” Noble said. “To have that type of

longevity, you must be talented in your craft and enjoy what you

do. Detective Tausz embodied that. A very skilled investigator.”

On behalf of police sta in Yorktown, Noble added that “all

of us at the Yorktown Police Department wish Detective Tausz,

Detective Gordineer, and O cer Paniccia a long, healthy, and

happy retirement. ey’ve certainly earned it.”

tional Team, which accumulated signed my sisters and me up just
an unfathomable 86-6-4 record so we would have a sport or ac-
tivity to try growing up.

Little did I know that I would
grow such a passion for this
sport.

What is your favorite thing
about being on the softball
team at Lakeland?

My favorite thing about being
on the Lakeland softball team
is knowing that my teammates
constantly have my back. We’re
a solid team so I know that if I
make an error in the eld or can’t
hit one day, there’s always some-
body else I can rely on.

What is your favorite team
activity or pregame or post-
game ritual that you share with
your teammates?

My favorite pregame rit-
ual would have to be getting
Dunkin’ or Starbucks with some
of my teammates.

Who has been your biggest
role model over the years and
what have you learned from
them?

My dad has de nitely been
my biggest role model over the
years. I learned everything I
know from him both on and
o the eld. I couldn’t be more
thankful for the best dad and
coach ever.

Tell us one thing about
yourself that not a lot of people
know.

I am very superstitious with a
lot of things I do.

Do you plan to continue to
play softball in college? Tell us
about where you are going to
school and why you chose it?

I plan on continuing my soft-
ball career at East Stroudsburg
University. As soon as I stepped
foot onto the campus I felt right
at home and knew it was where I
was going to spend the next four
years.

Do you know what you want to study in college? If yes, what are

you planning on studying and why?

I’m undecided.

Who is your favorite professional athlete and pro (or college)

sports team?

Yankees because I grew up always watching them, and players like

Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera are great athletes who inspire me.

What is your favorite music to listen to warming up for a game?

I can listen to anything. I prefer upbeat music.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why?

I would want to y so I can get places faster.

If you could pick one place to visit on vacation that you’ve never

been to, where would you go and why?

I would go to Bora Bora because it looks really nice and I love the

islands.

What is your favorite food to eat before or after a game?

Before my game I normally eat something small like a protein bar

and after I like to eat dinner like chicken cutlets and whatever food

is cooked at home.

Best place to eat in Yorktown and why?

In my opinion, the best place to eat in Yorktown is Bob-B-Q’s.

ey have all my favorite foods.

What’s the go-to app on your phone and why?

My go-to app on my phone is TikTok because I like scrolling

through funny videos and sending them to my friends. PHOTO: BRIAN MARSCHHAUSER

For a young athlete growing up in the Lakeland district, what Ava Knopf runs the bases.
would you tell them about the experience of being part of the

softball team and why should they go out for the team?

I would tell a young athlete growing up in the Lakeland school dis-

trict to always work hard and to try new things. Joining sports teams, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES.
in my case the softball team, gives you a second family.

You make so many new friendships and bonds that will last forever.
