Chenango Valley 13, Norwich 0
NORWICH – Chenango Valley extended its unbeaten record to 13-0 Friday, and most definitely met the quality of play expected of a number one ranked team in the state.

Eight of the Warriors’ 13 hits were of the extra-base variety. Eric Bidwell went 4-for-5 with a double and a triple, while Dan Pendleton and Jordan Oakley led with two RBI apiece.

COOPERSTOWN – A bases-loaded infield throwing error allowed two Cooperstown runs to score in the fifth inning to propel the Redskins past S-E in a battle of Center State Conference division leaders.

Sidney 11, Greene 5
SIDNEY – Errors hounded the Trojans, and Sidney put the ball in play enough to make Greene pay in a win for the Warriors Friday.

Sidney stretched its lead to 10-3 in the fifth scoring three runs with the aid of four Greene errors. The Trojans’ book tallied eight miscues for the game. “We gave up runs early that we shouldn’t have, and that hurt us more than anything,” said Greene coach Dave Gorton.
