Nowich 106, Chenango Forks 74

NORWICH –Norwich coach Kevin Diefenbacher put Friday’s lineup against Chenango Forks in the capable hands of captains Greg Todd and Joe Stagliano, and the Tornado swam to decisive victory to improve to 5-0 on the season.

Norwich won every event but the diving competition, and had five personal-best swims. “This was a captains’ meet, and I had Greg and Joe arrange the lineup with the stipulation that they put together some competitive relays,” Diefenbacher said. “The result was the same as if I had arranged the lineup.”

Todd and Stagliano had big roles in the Norwich win with multiple wins. Also cashing in with firsts in individual events were Curtis Woodard, Grant Horton, and Killian Benedict. Todd, Woodard, and Stagliano finished the day with four overall wins. “We had a diversified lineup, and it really was one of our best outings,” Diefenbacher said.

Greene 95, Susquehanna Valley 74

GREENE – Greene went 2-for-2 in back-to-back meets dispatching Susquehanna Valley Friday night.

The Trojans (3-2) won nine events and all but one non-relay race. “It can be challenging to swim on consecutive nights, and we were successful in both,” said Greene coach Mike Platta. “This gives us some momentum heading into the second half of the season.”

Scott Lord and Chris Bay won three total events for Greene, who are idle until a Jan. 4 home meet with Windsor.
