SULLIVAN COUNTY –– The Eldred Yellowjackets are now 1-1 heading into their next matchup of the season. After falling to the Pawling Tigers 36-49 last Saturday in an exciting 48 minutes. Senior Koen McGill rushed for 137 yards and Connor Ranaudo scored three touchdowns for the Yellowjackets despite their loss.

With a Rockland Wolves forfeit this week both the Wolves and the Eldred Yellowjackets will have a break from game action until next Friday.

The Rockland Wolves were shut out by the Onteora Eagles last weekend in their season opener. The Wolves struggled to complete plays but with an extra week off from competition, the extra practice time can yield positive results. 

The Liberty Redhawks suffered a substantial loss at the hands of James I. O’Neill last weekend. They will remain on the road and meet the Sawyers of Saugerties this Saturday at 1 pm and look to gain their first win of the season.

 Monticello took a tough loss from the Walkill Panthers. Panthers’ Coach Adam Rosenbarker previously said: “Our goals this season are to improve our win total from last season and cement a winning culture that will guide future players. Our eyes are looking forward to moving back into divisional play in the near future.” The Panthers are off this weekend but will play John S. Burke on Saturday, September 27 at 1:00 pm. 

After a road trip last Friday to start the season the Tri-Valley Bears host their first home contest this season against Taconic Hills this Saturday at 1:00 pm.

The Bulldogs are fresh off a 56-6 win over Cairo-Durham in their season opener on the road last weekend. Sullivan West has won their last two meetings against Cairo-Durham in 2023 and 2024.  Jesse Milk, Alec Hubert, and Paul Nunnari combined for a total of 323 rushing yards just to mention a few standout performers of that game. Sullivan West will face the Pawling Tigers tonight at 7:00 pm on the road.
