Quarterback Anthony Mason ran for a touchdown and passed for two more. He was only 3 for 4 from the air but 67% of his throws went for scores. Zach Zupan ran for 117 yards. - Antoine Montgomery turned Bishop Ludden’s game with APW into a route with interception returns and fumble recoveries on consecutive plays from scrimmage. A 15-8 game became 29-8 and the Gaelic Knights went on to win, 43-14. The other hero was Corey Williams son who ran for 204 yards and 4 touchdowns for the winners. - General Brown had all kinds of problems with Utica Notre Dame, finally subduing them, 33-30. The Jugglers scored twice as many points as the Lions had given up to all their regular season opponents combined. They jumped to a 17-0 lead and forced GB to make a big comeback to win. Zech Pitre’s 212 yards rushing and 2 scores were the key to comeback but it took a 16 yard pass from Richard Lagano to David Pitre to give GB the win. - Conor Herr, the best passer in the section by a considerable margin, completed 24 of 33 passes for 298 yards and two scores and caught a 70 yard TD pass to lead the Skaneateles Lakers to a 49-22 romp over Sherburne-Earlville. The game was 42-0 at one point. - Herkimer avenged their only loss, a week earlier against Little Falls, (12-20) with a dominating 42-8 victory.

CLASS AA FIRST ROUND (October 19-20) - Utica Proctor managed to score 33 points on that great CBA defense. But they still lost by 23 points, 56-33. The Raiders had a 14-7 second quarter lead when the brothers rallied for three straight scores and never again trailed. DeShawn Salter scored 5 touchdowns for the winners, running or 231 yards. - Defending sectional champs West Genesee knocked off Liverpool 36-25 as Naesean Howard ran for 240 yards and 4TDsThree of the Wildcat’s four losses this year were by a total of 5 points. Jeff Edwards had 218 rushing yards and two scores for the Warriors, who led 25-15 in the third period. - Fayetteville-Manlius shut down Henninger’s offense in a 17-6 win which was described as a “hard-hitting, old-school affair”.

Rickey Sparks had an 88 yard scoring jaunt and Eric Anthony an 88 yard pick six. They all must have been exhausted after that game. CLASS A FIRST ROUND (October 19-20) - déjà vu: Jamesville-Dewitt beat Watertown 47-12 in their final regular season game and did it again 49-0 in the opening round of the playoffs. Rasheed Baker ran for 164 yards and two scores. Watertown could only gain 79 yards. - Whitesboro avenged their 0-27 defeat in last year’s sectional final by beating East Syracuse-Minoa 34-12.

Darius Bryant ran for 151 yards on only 6 carries, two of which ere 61 and 69 yard touchdown runs. There were no upsets in this bracket. CLASS B FIRST ROUND (October 19-20) - Chittenango had no problem with VVS, 42-6. Star quarterback Devin Phelps ran for four touchdowns. The Bears, the only Section III team to make it past the first round of the state playoffs last year, look even better this year. - Oneida beat Cortland 20-12 with two fourth quarter scores by Dylan Cafalone to erase a 6-12 fourth quarter deficit. - Camden upset Homer, 37-20 behind four TD passes from Ryan McCarthy, who also ran for one and kicked a field goal. - Cazenovia shut down a Westhill offense that had scored 66 points the previous week and advanced easily, 48-6. The Lakers rushed for 276 yards and got an 85 yard fumble return. CLASS C SECOND ROUND (October 19-20) - Bishop Ludden, the 2007 sectional and state champ, eliminated #1 seed Canastota 33-20 behind 285 all purpose yards from Antoine Montgomery, who had kick-off returns of 70 and 79 yards. - Skaneateles had announced itself on the local scene in the 2011 opener by shocking perennial power and tow-time defending sectional champ General Brown, 54-31. That was the first of what is now 17 consecutive victories by an average 49-17. That’s virtually the score they beat General Brown by this time, 49-14. Conor Herr and Jake Cooney key the Laker’s aerial game but it was their interceptions, one returned 70 yards to set up a score and anther returned 45 yards for a score that keyed the rout. Herr passed for 223 yards and three scores, two to Cooney. - Herkimer continued rolling, beating Frankfort-Schuyler 42-6.

CLASS D FIRST ROUND (October 19-20) - Sandy Creek eliminated Dolgeville 28-21, building up a 28-7 lead going into the fourth quarter and holding on to win. Four different players scored for the Comets. Mason McNitt ran for 157 yards. - Weedsport Built up a 19-7 lead on Sauquoit Valley on three TD runs by Lance Myers, surrendered two scores to fall into a tie thanks to two missed conversions and won it on a fourth quarter safety and a 60 yard TD run by Matt Pele. - Westmoreland crushed Port Byron 48-13, breaking the game open with a 35 point second half. Quarterback Zack Green rushed for 133 yards and two scores while Tim Harrison rushed for 136 and four scores. - West Canada Valley beat Pulaski 35-20, putting them away with two fourth quarter touchdowns by Ryan Moody and Ryan Grogan, who each scored twice and ran for 258 yards between them. The schedule for next week‘s semi-finals: CLASS AA CBA 8-0 (281-105) vs. West Genesee 4-4 (251-196) Baldwinsville 7-1 (378-204) vs. Fayetteville-Manlius 7-1 (229-102) West Genny beat CBA 57-35 in last year’s final but I think the Brothers are the better team this year. Tyler Rouse now has rushed for 2,494 yards on 255 carries (9.8 yards per carry) and has scored 39 touchdowns in 8 games. That‘s an average of 331 yards and 5TDs per game. CLASS A Jamesville-DeWitt 8-0 (269-64) vs. Whitesboro 7-2 (224-136) Indian River 7-1 (300-144) vs. Nottingham 6-2 (263-142) J-D is the class of the field but Whitesboro is the perennial power here and Indian River and Nottingham would be formidable opponents. CLASS B Chittenango 8-0 ( 294-71) vs. Oneida 6-2, (243-93) Cazenovia 7-1 (299-90) vs. Camden 6-2 (235-160) Cazenovia’s only loss was a two pointer to the best team in Class A, J-D. They haven’t played Chittenango this year. They did play last year and the Lakers won, 13-10. If they meet in the final it should be a similar game. CLASS C Skaneateles 8-0 (383-133) vs. Bishop Ludden 7-1 (260-151) Herkimer 7-1 (303-82) vs. Lowville 6-2 (195-151) A Skaneateles-Herkimer final would be a confrontation between the team that seemed like the best team last year when they were excluded form the tournament for dubious reasons and the team that won the section in their absence. The Lakers seem dominant again but the Magician’s performance in the playoffs has been equally impressive, so this could be a heck of a game. CLASS D Sandy Creek 8-0 (213-81) vs. Weedsport 7-1 (277-108) Westmoreland 6-2 (331-127) vs. West Canada Valley 8-0 (256-78) Westmoreland is the defending sectional champs. Weedsport and West Canada have both won state titles. But that doesn’t men they are better than Sandy Creek. 　 [/QUOTE]
