Football, Volleyball Prepare for Section III Contests

The Skaneateles Lakers football team and girl's volleyball team are preparing for Section III playoff contests this weekend, with the volleyball team in action on the road at Solvay beginning at 5 p.m. on Friday as the football team takes on Canastota at 5 p.m. on Saturday at CNS.

The volleyball team is contending in the opening round of the Section III Class B tournament, entering as the No. 5 seed in the six team playoff.  If the Lakers win they will advance to take on top seeded Westhill on November 1 at 6 p.m.

The Lakers football team is coming off a 48-6 victory over Little Falls in the quarterfinals of the Section III Class C playoffs, with No. 3 Canastota now in their sights.  The Lakers are the No. 2 seed in the playoffs and a win on Saturday means a trip to the Carrier Dome in Syracuse for the Section III Class C championship.  The top seed, General Brown, takes on Sherburne-Earlville in the other Class C semi-final at CNS, which will be played at 2 p.m. on Saturday.
