Determined Dawgs down improving Indians
By RICHARD A. ROSS
JEFFERSONVILLE, NYAfter suffering tough losses last week, both Liberty and Sullivan West went back to the drawing board and practiced intensively. Both teams are a work in progress and deserve admiration and respect for their efforts no matter what the final outcome of the season may be. Having said that, neither Liberty nor Sullivan West wanted to be 0-2 at the end of week two.
Libertys coach Jim OConnor noted before the game that his kids responded well following their loss to Highland on opening day. They showed up en-masse to practice on Labor Day. Sullivan Wests practice routine after last weeks debacle at the hands of dominating Delhi was grueling.

The event, organized by the Sullivan County ATV Association, raises money for gravely ill children.
Each rider receives a sealed envelope that contains a poker hand and some time later in the day, some lucky muddy gal, guy or kid is a winner.
