A couple of tidbits left over from Friday's football action:
Cornwall, No. 3 in Class A, escaped with a 12-6, double-OT victory over Port Jervis when Lou D'Esposito scored on a 3-yard run.
The extent of the shoulder injury suffered by Churchville-Chili senior running back Averin Collier remains unclear. But the Saints don't have enough firepower without him to beat Gates Chili for a spot in the NYSPHSAA Class AA quarterfinals if he's missing five weeks from now.
New scoring king: We're not sure if Chazy senior Nolan Ryan can throw a baseball, but he can certainly kick a soccer ball.
Chazy scored three times Saturday in a 4-0 victory over Keene. His first scoring effort came 14:55 into the game gave his 153 goals in his five-year career to eclipse the state-record career scoring mark of 152 by Chittenango great Jeff Knittle in 1994.
Chazy fans celebrated the moment by releasing green and white balloons.
"Nolan is a once-in-a-career player," Eagles Coach Rob McAuliffe told The Press Republican.
Ryan is considering a handful of upstate Division III college programs.
Running notes: The Fayetteville-Manlius girls put on an impressive show at the 43rd McQuaid Invitational in Rochester, holding off Burnt Hills-Ballston Spa, 38-45, in the large-school race.
They are rated first in Class AA and A, respectively by the New York State Sportswriters Association. Class B leader East Aurora was third with 81 points.
The Warwick Wave Mania meet drew deep fields that resulted in some impressive efforts. Seniors Julian Sheinbaum of Scarsdale (15:40.2) and Tori Pennings of Warwick Valley (17:50.2) led the way.
Saratoga senior Hannah Davidson won the Varsity A race at the Oatlands Invitational in Virginia in an impressive 18:04.96.
Commitments: Holy Names forward Jess Walton says she will play basketball next year for LaSalle. The 6-foot-1 forward will sign her Letter of Intent in November according to The Times-Union. Walton was fifth-team all-state in Class A after helping Holy Names into the Section 2 finals.
Extra points: Alcohol infractions in Elba led to the suspensions of 19 athletes in a variety of sports last week. Each will be required to sit out 20 percent of their teams' contests. . . . In field hockey, Kingston (9-0) remained unbeaten and unscored upon with a 3-0 win against Vestal. . . . Sarah Tarantino of East Aurora scored 13 goals in three games last week including four during a 5-1 girls soccer triumph yesterday against Holland. Tarantino has scored 17 times this season.
