• 0:50
  SPEAKER_01: Let it rip, Roger.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: Thanks, Tim.
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: Well, let's take a look at some of the big games coming up in Section Four this weekend.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: Let's start things off in class A.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: UE's Tigers matching up against Horsez.
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: Horse had a big win to go to one and one last weekend.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: They racked up almost 400 yards on the ground.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: So they put a lot of yardage up on the board.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: Now the Tigers had a tough loss against Maine Enwell in their opener too.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: So that should be a very interesting battle coming up in action in Class A, Tim.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_01: This is an early season rematch of last year's Class A championship game, which UI won 34-0.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_01: Yui and Coach Bolino are looking for their first victory, and I'm sure Coach Hillman and the Blue Raiders would like nothing more to avenge the Class C I'm sorry, Class A championship game loss last season.
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: Let's take a look at uh Class B Main Enwell opening things up with that win over Union Endicott 14-0.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_00: They used a big punt return, 80-yard return to break open a scoreless game and go on to get the victory.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_00: This time around, they will face longtime rival Norwich.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: That's going to be at Main Enwell.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: Norwich comes in with a record of 1-1, and the Spartans are 1-0.
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_00: And anytime, Tim, these two teams go at it, it should be very interesting.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: And certainly the edge, perhaps, maybe with Maine Enwell in their home stadium.
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_01: Whenever you hear Norwich versus Main Enwell, you can't help but think of the two coaches, Gallagher and Christie.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_01: It sounds like a law firm.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_01: Norwich scored 69 points last week and allowed zero.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_01: Main Enwell shut out a very good UE team, 14-0.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_01: I highly doubt there's going to be a zero on the board for either team for this game.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: Another Class B team in action, Windsor.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_00: They will be in action against a Class A team in Ithaca.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: Windsor 1-1, but they had a loss to Shenango Forks in the uh game last weekend, and Ithaca has played just one game.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: They are 0-1.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: Anytime teams go out of their class in uh the enrollment situation, very interesting, and we'll see what Windsor can do on uh the slate against the Ithaca tip.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: Windsor is coming off a tough loss in the Hogan Bowl with Shenango Forks.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_01: That game could have gone either way.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_01: Ithaca is an improved team, and they have a new stadium, Moresco Stadium, named after their longtime coach Joe Moresco.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_00: Class C competition.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_00: The Forks will be in action.
• 3:20
  SPEAKER_00: They're 2-0.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: They will take on 0-1 Oneata.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_00: And Tim, will the Forks again be a dominant player, not only in Section 4, but around the state?
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_01: The real coach, Neil, sorry, Roger.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_01: And the Oneana Yellow Jackets should have their hands full with Shenango Forks.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: Also coming up this weekend, Waverly plays at Newark Valley.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_00: Waverly comes in unbeaten, 2-0.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_00: Newark Valley a tough loss to Tioga in the opener, so they are 0-1 at Newark Valley.
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_00: So that should be a good showdown as well.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_01: Waverly is a much improved program and just might challenge for the Class C championship.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_01: Mark your calendars for the weekend of October 14th, 15th, when the Wolverines host Shenango Forks.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_01: If Newark Valley can contain Joey Tomaso with a dynamic Waverly offense, the Cardinals can make it a very interesting game.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_00: Class D Tyoga 2-0 record.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_00: They have had a huge edge offensively, 82-26 outscoring the opponents.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_00: And Harpersville Afton 0-1 will come in to match up against Tyoga in that one.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_01: Tyoga is Tyoga.
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_01: I watched some of their game last week.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_01: They have playmakers in all the ball handling positions, so they will be tough to defense.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_01: The Harpersville Afton Hornets and Coach Garlets are going to need a strong defensive performance to beat Tyoga.
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_00: Also, uh, as we go on to eight-man football, Moravia puts their high-powered offense on display coming up this weekend.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_00: They're 2-0.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: They'll take on Trumansburg, and Trumansburg's unbeaten 1-0.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_01: This should be a very interesting contest.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_01: Both teams enter the game undefeated.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_01: Both have scored a lot of points.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_01: Moravia 92 in two games and only given up 14 points, while Trumansburg has scored 46 in their only game and given up eight points.
• 5:12
  SPEAKER_01: Something has to give.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_01: With these two high-scoring teams and only 16 players on the field at a time, the officials better have their cardio up because you'll be running a lot.
• 5:30
  SPEAKER_00: They'll take on Whitney Point with an unbeaten record so far, too.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_00: That should be an interesting game.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_01: Both Watkins-Glen Odessa Montour and Whitney Point have not had any problem scoring points or holding their opponents in check.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_01: In two games, Watkins-Glen Odessa Montour has scored 80 points and allowed only 24, where Whitney Point has scored 36 points in their only game and allowed only six.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_01: Both teams are undefeated, but that will change this weekend.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so no matter what, coming up this weekend, there should be some excitement on the football field.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_00: Lots of good matchups all around Section 4, Tim.
• 6:11
  SPEAKER_01: Thank you, Roger.
