   Following up: The Wellsville Daily Reporter caught up with Wellsville AD and baseball coach Dennie Miles, who is on pace to become the winningest coach in that sport in Section 5 next spring. But it wasn't baseball that has Miles back in the news.

   Until last week, his eight-goal performance for Friendship in 1967 in a 10-0 win over Belmont was the NYSPHSAA record in boys soccer. The mark fell when Slater Bushen scored 10 goals in a 23-0 victory.

   "It's a tough situation. I sent out an e-mail to all of our coaches after Hornell beat us 71-0 in football last year saying, 'You have to prepare our kids for a game like that, you have to be prepared to be way up on a team in a game. You have to have a game plan for that,'" Miles said.

   Instant replay for N.J.? New Jersey is considering a plan to use instant replay at the high school football level, MyCentralJersey.com reported. this week.

   The New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletics Association is exploring a pilot program with a few schools. Those schools would be subscribers to the HUDL Sideline service and equipped with wireless tablets on the sidelines, where replays from cameras in both end zones and the press box would be instantly available to game officials.

   The NJSIAA expects to develop a plan that would allow for reviews involving fumbles, catches, touchdowns and out-of-bounds calls.

   National Federation rules currently allows coaches to use video review on the sidelines during games as a teaching tool for players following a specific down or series of downs.
