Sullivan West’s Steve Daley finds an opening between Pine Plains defenders Louie Cassinelli (23) and Shane Vankeuren (80) as he runs for a big gain in the Bulldogs’ Homecoming win over the Bombers. This was the first of two league games that Sullivan West will play this season as they vie for a Class C title. They play at Tri-Valley on October 22. A win against Tri-Valley would guarantee the league title and a berth in the Class C sectional game.

Bulldogs shoot down Bombers
Dominant performance versus Pine Plains puts Bulldogs atop Class C
By RICHARD A. ROSS
LAKE HUNTINGTON NYPlaying on the new field in Lake Huntington for the first time ever, the Sullivan West Bulldogs turned a rainy, chilly Homecoming game against Class C Pine Plains into a cause for celebration.
Displaying the kind of dominant football in evidence ever since the team lost (but really won) up at Walton, the Bulldogs slammed down the gauntlet in Class C by knocking off the first of its two rivals. Two weeks hence, Sullivan West will visit Tri-Valley and encounter the Bears, who got on a roll the night before with a resounding win over LMR.
But today it was all about shooting down the Bombers.

The Devil-Cats were hoping to steal a honey of a win on October 7, but they were mauled from the get-go instead, as Tri-Valleys offense became LMRs pain in the rain.

Chester edges Eldred in non-league prelim
By RICHARD A. ROSS
CHESTER, NYFor visiting teams, winning a game at the Enchanted Forest—Chesters home turf—is a tall order. Not only is Chester tough at home, but strange things happen down there. Case in point: at a key moment in the October 7 game against Eldred, the lights went out on Eldreds side of the field, but the game was allowed to continue in the semi-darkness.
Still, for Eldreds head coach Frank Kean and his previously undefeated hive of Yellowjackets, this game was about proving that they could compete with the defending Class D champs.
