Legends vs Tigers

The last time the Lancaster football team played they were at New Era Field where they would face off against Section V opponent Victor. The squad from the Rochester area would prevail and would turn into the state runner-ups for 2016.

That was last year, every team is back to 0-0 and will once again race to the finish line in Syracuse.

This Friday night the Lancaster Legends return to Foyle-Kling Field to take on the Bennett Tigers in a Class AA matchup.

Bennett would also see their season end in Orchard Park in the Far West Regionals losing to Greece Athena. They were in Class A last year but have since jumped up to Class AA for 2017.
