Norwich 0, Whitney Point 0

NORWICH – In a battle of winless teams Thursday, Norwich and Whitney Point failed to solve the goal-scoring riddle in a scoreless tie Thursday on Norwich’s turf field.

The Tornado had the game’s best scoring opportunity drawing a penalty kick at 34:15 of the first half. Whitney Point keeper, Jake Keenan, guessed right and saved the shot attempt of Norwich junior Jason Woodard. “We had the better of the play in the first half, but our shots were not of great quality,” said Norwich coach John McCumiskey. “They had a few more chances in overtime, and in the long run, the tie is probably a justified ending.”

Greene 5, Unatego 2

GREENE – After a slow start to the season, Greene is beginning to hit its stride with a convincing victory over Unatego Thursday.

The Trojans (4-1-1, 4-3-1) scored three goals in the first half, and outshot the Spartans 12-3 in building the lead. “I felt we stepped up and controlled play the whole first half. It’s probably the best first half we’ve ever played,” said Greene coach Randy Smith. “We’ve played well the last two games, and this should give us some momentum.”

Megan McDermott scored the first of her three goals 13 minutes into play, and Tara Bub followed nine minutes later with her first-ever varsity goal. Liz Wentlent made it 3-0 heading in a deflection off the Unatego keeper’s deflection.

Summary

(3-0 at half)

Goals-assists: (G) Megan McDermott, 3-1; Liz Wentlent, 1-0; Tara Bub, 1-0; April Small, 0-1; Vanessa Markham, 0-1. (U) Jessica Welch, 2-0.
