Brent Steuerwald told Brent Martineau at media day, the last time Shen had a poor season, they bounced back with a very good one. Sure looked good last night against CBA. Not sure about CBA. They lost a lot, so the quality of Shen's win is still in question, but, aside from some penalties, the Green Machine was rolling.
Colonie also looked good. Credit Columbia's defense.. they made some good stops, slowing the Raiders run game early, but I think they just wore down toward the end of the 2nd quarter. Poleto busted off a few good runs, and a 21-0 margin was too much to overcome.
Lansingburgh is at it again.. Youngs with 200 plus, Hepp with 3 scores. First question Pete Porecelli asked me tonight when he called in the score(he's one of the best at getting his games called in quickly) was how did Amsterdam and Maginn turn out.
Zach Kraham with 5 TD's for Chatham. Had a viewer call to ask if we know about the Chrysler kid for the Panthers. Big lineman, getting some college looks. Didn't see him last night. Hopefully next week.
Guilderland's Andrew Smith looked like the real deal last night.. quick on the punt return.. I'l look forward to seeing him in person hopefully next week.
Soccer.. nice win for Duane Wood and Mohon in the first game of their girls tourney in Rotterdam. Duane coaches my daughters team and is one of the genuinely good guys in the area.. even handed with the girls. They like to play for him. Mohon won 4-0, with 4 different scorers. Nice start. We'll know more when they match up with the likes of Shen, Nisky and Burnt Hills.(Spartans win their opener against Schalmont)
