SAINTS FOOTBALL:

ONCE A REGIONAL POWER IN THE 70'S & 80'S, THE ST. LAWRENCE FOOTBALL PROGRAM IS LOOKING TO RE-ESTABLISH ITSELF AS A LIBERTY LEAGUE CONTENDER THIS SEASON.  LAST YEAR A LITTLE ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES WITH ONLY 1 VICTORY.  HEAD COACH AND FORMER SAINT QB CHRIS PHELPS BELIEVES HE'S GOT THE SAINTS HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.  SLU COMPETES IN THE LIBERTY LEAGUE WHOSE CHAMPION EARNS AN AUTOMATIC BID INTO THE NCAA TOURNAMENT.  THE SAINTS DESPITE THEIR RECORD OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS PLAY ON ONE OF THE NICEST FIELDSIN THE NORTHEAST AND HAVE MADE USE OF THEIR NEW FITNESS AND WEIGHT TRAINING FACILITY.  DON'T FORGET TO TUNE IN EVERY SAT. AFTERNOON RIGHT HERE ON 99 SPORTS AS WE'LL BRING YOU EVERY SAINTS FOOTBALL GAME LIVE.   THE SAINTS WILL GET UNDERWAY AGAINST ITHACA AT HOME NEXT SATURDAY

SILVER AND BLACK FOOTBALL:

THE RAIDERS STILL LOOKING FOR THAT ELUSIVE FIRST WIN OF THE YEAR.  THEY'VE ONLY GOT TWO SHOTS LEFT AT IT.  A HOME GAME AGAINST THE WATERTOWN RED AND BLACK THIS SATURDAY NIGHT WHICH YOU'LL HEAR RIGHT HERE ON 99 SPORTS.  IF THEY DON'T GET IT DONE THEN ONE LAST CHANCE AS THEY'LL TRAVEL TO BROOME COUNTY THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND.  THE RAIDERS 0-8 ON THE YEAR BEEN A TOUGH SEASON FOR THEM AS EARLIER IN THE YEAR THEY VERY WELL COULD OF BEEN 3-1 BUT LOST GAMES THREE WEEKS IN A ROW ON THE LAST PLAY OR LAST MINUTE OF THE 4TH QUARTER.
