Greene 61, Unadilla Valley-Edmeston 0

NORWICH – Greene’s own field turf home surface will not be ready until midseason, so it borrowed Norwich’s for a night, and came away a blowout winner Saturday night against UV-Edmeston.

The Trojans (1-0, 2-0) won their division opener scoring on offense, defense, and special teams in building a 35-0 halftime lead. Greene added four more scores in the third quarter, and the game was halted with 10:47 remaining in the fourth after another UV-E injury left it with scarcely enough players to finish the contest.

“Defensively, we came off the ball and played tough,” said Greene coach Tim Paske. “We worked hard on the fundamentals in practice this week, and we executed.”

Greene ran just two offensive plays in the second quarter, but there were no worries. Brendan Kinne returned two punts for touchdowns to added a three-TD lead.

Quarterback Scott Gorton had TD passes to Kevin Gilroy and Nick Wilcox, and James Church recovered a UV-E fumble in the endzone leaving the count at 35-0 after two quarters.
