Vestal NY- It might not be their home turf, but the Binghamton Patriots settled in nicely Friday evening at Dick Hoover Stadium at Vestal High seeking their first Sectional title in three years. They would not disappoint their fans and emerged with a one-sided 34-14 win over defending Champs Corning. The Pats seemed to be hobbled with ankle injuries affecting many of their running backs, especially JJ Jones and freshman Dan Sellepack, however, turned to Kareem Leaver and Brian Alexander to do the job. Both were instrumental in turning a close first-half 14-13 Corning lead into a decisive win, and a return to Hoover Stadium next Saturday to host either West Genesee or Christian Brothers Academy (Syracuse) in the NYS Regional game.
