As of Thursday evening, Norwich’s home game with Owego tonight was postponed. A make-up date is pending, said head coach John Martinson. “It’s all dependent upon Owego’s ability to get safe transportation,” the Norwich coach said.

Martinson said that Norwich may reschedule the game to either Saturday, Sunday or Monday night, and we will proceed with our weekly game previews under the presumption that ever game will be played.

When the Tornado do tee it up for kickoff against the Indians, it will be an opportunity to avenge last year’s Section IV Class B playoff loss. Owego dominated the Tornado winning by four touchdown in a game where Norwich was never really in it after the opening quarter. “Teams usually get better as the season goes on, and I was not pleased with last year’s game,” Martinson said of his playoff loss. “We’re trying to focus more on ourselves and play Norwich football instead of worry about the other team.”
