Huge win for Storm

NEW BERLIN – For all those who doubted the improvement of Unadilla Valley-Edmeston’s football team this season, here’s the summary of the 2010 team: The Storm are the real deal.

UV-E shook off a fumble on the one-foot line as it was going in for a score in the second quarter, stopped the Trojans on a first-and-goal from the 10 after a blocked punt, and stopped Greene’s last-ditch drive fto pick up its first-ever win over Greene, 14-7, Friday night before a large home crowd.

The win was the third straight for UV-E, and the first in Class C division play. “What’s it been, 15 years?” said UV-Edmeston first-year coach Stan Foulds of the drought against Greene. “Nobody thought we could do this. I don’t think we got the respect especially after they beat us (61-0) last year. They thought Greene would just run away with it.”

The first indicator this was a different scenario than last year was on the Trojans’ opening drive. Greene, who came into the game averaging over 300 yards rushing per game, moved for three straight first downs, and seemed destined to put points on the board. The drive stalled, though, at the UV-E 29 after two incomplete passes, a fumble that lost a yard, and a stuff of a run.
