Division battles highlight local grid action

Week three brings local grid fans into heated division battles, and a potential game of the week is Sidney’s home matchup against Chenango County’s 12th-ranked Greene Trojans.

Greene’s current ranking, although completely subjective, may be the program’s highest in statewide Class C in school history.

Week one’s 37-0 shellacking of Oxford set the early tone, and last week’s 36-22 win over Tioga is a wee bit deceiving. The Trojans led 36-6 early in the third quarter before head coach Tim Paske flooded the field with reserves.

Sidney counters with two equally impressive wins routing Section III’s Mount Markham, a playoff team a year ago, and Delhi. “They have a good group returning up front (on the offensive line), and that’s a key to any team’s success,” said Greene’s Paske.

The Trojans handled Sidney a season ago with relative ease, but that was before the Warriors began to jell. Sidney finished with three wins over the final four games, and is off to a hot start this season.
