Canandaigua vs. Hilton has makings of an old-school football clash

Fans of old-school football will likely enjoy the Section V Class A crossover. Hilton and Canandaigua both run the ball frequently. Their starting running backs combined for 65 carries and 361 yards in the sectional finals. These teams are not identical. They did, however, take similar paths to the Class A crossover. Both teams looked untouchable for a month. Both stumbled late in the regular season. Both overcame adversity to win a championship. But only one can represent Section V in the state tournament. Here’s a look at how Hilton and Canandaigua got here, and how they might match up Nov. 13 at St. John Fisher University. More: Hilton offense powers Cadets past Brighton to football title Overcoming adversity Fairport spoiled Canandaigua’s Homecoming. No one had touched the Gray Wolves in the four weeks leading up to their 21-7 defeat . They have not been beaten since. That loss to Fairport on Oct. 2 changed something inside Canandaigua’s locker room.

East/WOI gets its title shot back but will be shorthanded

The door is open for the East High/World of Inquiry football team to play in the Section V Class B championship game Nov. 14, after a ruling by a state athletic association and a Section V official to reinstate the Eagles into the high school tournament. East High/World of Inquiry won a semifinal game at Monroe, 14-6, last Saturday. But seconds after a tackle on the final play of the elimination game Nov. 7, players from both teams began fighting on the field, including those who were on the sidelines. Officials at both schools said they were notified later that day each team was disqualified from the tournament. The decision was made this week and announced Nov. 11 to allow East/World of Inquiry to play Honeoye Falls-Lima, 3 p.m. Saturday at Saint John Fisher University. "I was very optimistic that they were going to find out who was involved and who was not involved," East High/World of Inquiry coach James Vann said. "Hope was still alive. We kept it business as usual (by practicing leading up to a game). "I knew they were going to do their due diligence." Rochester City School District superintendent Eric Jay Rosser said in a
