is accused of touching two of his female schoolmates inappropriately last Thursday, Ontario County sheriff's deputies reported.
Thomas Jeffrey Savage, 17, was charged Thursday with two counts of sexual abuse, a misdemeanor, Deputy John Peck told the Democrat and Chronicle. All three teens are members of the same unspecified school sports team at Marcus Whitman that was returning from a competition, he said.
Savage was arraigned in Gorham Town Court and released, and orders of protection were issued on behalf of the girls, Peck told the paper.
Extra points: Keep an eye on the issue of CHSFL divisional fotmat and schedul changes, which Tom Dowd of The Advance explored today. It would be great to find a way to match the CHSFL's against some NYSPHSAA football opponents, but that development would seem to just be an offshoot of possible changes rather than a primary goal. . . . Heather Reynolds set two school records last night by making nine three-pointers and scoring 45 points as Corning West routed Corning East in girls basketball, 70-41. Reynolds also made 10 steals.
