ENDICOTT – Trumansburg was too big and too fast for the Greene Trojans Saturday afternoon at Union-Endicott High School.

The Blue Raiders beat Greene for the second time this season, and advanced to the Section IV 8-man football finals blanking the Trojans, 48-0.

“Trumansburg is a little bigger and a little stronger than us physically, and it showed,” said Greene coach Dave Gorton.

The Blue Raiders put their first points on the board less than 90 seconds in.

After forcing a Greene punt, T’burg executed a short touchdown drive after a long punt return.

Nik Nelson hit Derwin Good on a short swing pass. Good made a defender miss en route to a 15-yard score.

Greene failed to move the ball for a first down, but managed to hold T-burg to a punt as well.

However, following that forced punt, Greene committed the first of its four interceptions. Aidan Clarke picked off a Greene pass taking it into the Trojans red zone.

From there, it was the Chandler Wright show for the Blue Raiders.
