Cyclones win three of four in final home game of season
NORWICH – The Cyclones’ “C” team reached the Tri-Valley League playoff finals with a 13-0 win over a stubborn Canastota Raiders team Sunday at Alumni Field.
The Cyclones scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns of 24 and 36 yards on runs by Michael Oralls, who rushed for 111 yards on the day. Tristan Rifanburg added a pointafter touchdown run.
The Cyclones’ blue offensive line of Storm Cook, Cole Brightman, Jordan Vinal, Matt Craig, Matt Parella, Eric Bishop, and Kevin Porack have controlled the line of scrimmage throughout the year.
Craig and Cook led the Cyclones defense, with Spencer Stone, Cameron Edwards, Oralls, Killian Benedict, and John Marvin playing big defense. The Cyclones held Canastota offense to one first down in the game.
The Cyclones “B” team built a big first-half lead to defeat Whitesboro 27-6.
The Cyclones opened the scoring with a safety in the first quarter, and Michael Sutton scored on a nifty 25-yard punt return – also in the first.
Jaden MacRabie had two second-quarter TDs – one 48 yards and the second three yards. Robbie Wheeler added a nine-yard TD jaunt in the fourth, with Keegan Franklin adding the conversion run.
On defense, Matt Murray, Matt Burke, Frank Garcia, Graydon Murphy, Trent Stone, Wheeler and Sutton stopped Whitesboro cold.
A Cyclones win Sunday at Cazenovia could create a three-way tie for the league crown with V.V.S. and Oneida.
The Cyclones “A” team upended Rome 33-0 for the third win of the day.
Dennis Oralls was 6-for-8 in passing with three TDs and 120 yards – all in the first quarter. Oralls hit Paul Wonka on a 31-yard TD pass, Cassie Sutton on a seven-yard TD toss, and Nate Ashton on a 30-yard aerial, with Ashton kicking the conversion.
Oralls passed Derek Hughes for second all-time in 38 years of Cyclones football with his 14th career touchdown pass. Oralls has nine TD tosses on the season. Andy Schroer (1970-72), former Cornell quarterback, had 19 career touchdown passes in three seasons as the Cyclones signalcaller.
Kyle Edwards went untouched on a 24-yard scamper in the second stanza and passed to Wonka for the extra-point conversion.
Matt Antonowicz ended the Cyclones’ scoring at home for the year on a three-yard TD run in the third.
On defense, Ian Weaver, Shawn Roach, and Dane Jeffrey had a big day, with Jordan Crandall and Jeff Witt having interceptions. Ba’Sheim Jenkins had three fumble recoveries, while Roach also recovered a fumble.
The Cyclones “D” team lost 13-0 to Waterville to end their first season.
