Strong day of lacrosse in the Southern Tier t'row in the Sect 3/Sect 4 matchups.
15-1 Corning gets a home game against Baldwinsville in A. The Hawks lost their first game of the year and then ran the table, including a late season win over Victor. However, any top team from Sect 3 gets immediate respect. The Bees smoked West Genny to get here. Should be an excellent game.
B - Not sure how good this Vestal Bears team is. They've had recent 'good' loss to B'ville so maybe they can hang with Fayetteville Manlius. Same note as above about Sect 3 team. No doubt FM would love to get another crack at Victor.
C - I'd expect JD to empty the bench t'row in their anticipated win. Owego might be taken to the woodshed early.
The last game of the day, the D's, should be lights out electric. The Lancers have put it all together suddenly and are reminiscent of the great 2009 team. They dropped one to Chenango Forks earlier (12-11) so they'll seek payback. They're riding a 4 game win streak and their fans will turn out. Forks were in the semis in last year's states after beating CBA out of Syracuse in this same game. They recently hung with Corning but had a poor showing against a so-so Ithaca team. They did thump Vestal earlier in year. That team will need to show up and be on their game to stop Lafayette.
In the West it'll probably be a tough day for the Buffalo teams at St John Fisher. OP and Hamburg might put up a fight in their games vs Fairport and Victor but not for 4 quarters. Eden got a taste of Penn Yan earlier and it was a 0-14 whitewash. East Aurora looks like they played one Sect 5 team this year. They got wrecked by Greece 12-3. Geneva handled Greece by 3-4 goals so Geneva is a heavy favorite. They did fall last year to West Seneca East in this same game so I think they'll learn from that and be ready from minute one. And then it'll be time for Buffalo to focus on the loser Bills summer news.
