Norwich 4, Owego 3
NORWICH – Norwich assured itself a winning record this season finishing out its home campaign with a win over Owego Wednesday.
With five matches already completed and Norwich leading 3-2 overall, the third doubles team of Reva Seager and Katie Orioli wrapped up the victory with a straight sets win.
It was a season sweep for Norwich over Owego, and although this match had a closer final than the first meeting (a 5-2 NHS win), the Tornado won more convincingly, said head coach John Stewart. “We really improved upon our scores over last time,” he said. “We won three super tiebreakers last time (out of our five points), and tonight all of our wins came in straight sets.”
Jen Zieno and Sophie Stewart were winners at singles, and first doubles partners Krissie Collier and Christina Decker added a win. Norwich improved to 7-4 with a season-ending date at Maine-Endwell Friday. “It looks like we’re going to replicate what we did last year,” Stewart said. “As young as we are in some spots, I would not have predicted that. I thought a .500 season would be a huge success, so a winning season is reaching beyond what I thought we were capable of.”

Greene 2, Maine-Endwell 0
ENDWELL – Greene ended a four-game losing streak to Maine-Endwell and won on the Spartans’ home turf for the first time in several years, Wednesday afternoon.
“It’s been a long time since we’ve won over there,” said Greene coach Sue Carlin. “Our defense played extremely well, and Andrea Myers (center back) probably played the best game of her career.”
Myers pulled at least two balls off the goal line to help preserve the shutout in the second half under intense M-E pressure, Carlin said.
The Trojans controlled action most of the first half, but had nothing to show for their effort until an Andrea Day goal with just three seconds left in the first half. Day deflected a ball in mid-air after a Holly Davis shot for the momentum-building tally.
With 14 minutes left in the game, Davis took a free hit from Anna Crumb and tipped it in the goal to add insurance. “We played well under pressure and we didn’t make the crucial mistakes that can change a game,” Carlin said. “In a couple of our losses, those mistakes were costly.”
Freshman Devin Staley made eight saves for Greene (3-1, 5-2) to earn the shutout.
Summary
(1-0 at half)
Goals-assists: (G) Andrea Day, 1-0, Holly Davis, 1-1, Anna Crumb, 0-1.
Shots-corners: (G) 7-2, (ME) 11-11.
Saves: (G) Devin Staley, 8. (ME) Amy Farro, 4.

DERUYTER – A single goal in the second half was the lone scoring in Otselic Valley’s second straight one-goal shutout loss Wednesday.

Waterville 3, S-E 0
WATERVILLE – Waterville generated all the offense it would need in the first half, and the Marauders were sent to their third straight shutout loss Wednesday night.
Mickey Heuning polished off the Waterville scoring in the first half with a pair of unassisted goals. S-E, meanwhile, had just one shot on goal in the contest.
“Offensively we’re trying to find the right combinations,” said S-E coach Mike Rodriguez. “We’re moving the ball well, but the problems have come when we have reached the offensive third of the field. We can’t seem to generate a shot on goal – it’s a chemistry thing.”
