LIVINGSTON COUNTY – It’s sectional time in boys’ basketball, and several Livingston County teams are vying for postseason dominance.
York was the only Livingston County team to earn a #1 seed in the 91st annual Section V Basketball Tournament, grabbing the top spot in the class C3 tournament. The Golden Knights (15-3) will host the winner of #8 Red Jacket (6-12) and #9 Harley Allendale Columbia (5-13) on Feb. 24 at 7:00 p.m. The C3 bracket is also home to #5 Geneseo (12-6). The Blue Devils will host #12 South Seneca (3-15) Feb. 21 at 7:00 p.m. With two wins by Geneseo and a win by York, the two teams could square off in a Feb. 27 semifinal slugfest.
In the class C1 bracket, #4 Avon (10-8) will host #5 Gananda (8-10) Feb. 24 at 7:00 p.m. A second-round win would likely pit the Braves against top seed East Rochester in the semifinals.
The class C2 tournament is loaded with powerful Livingston County squads, with #4 Perry (15-3) leading the way. The #5 seed Letchworth (15-3) will host #12 Canisteo-Greenwood (5-13) Feb. 21 at 7:00 p.m., and a victory for the Indians would set up a showdown with Perry. Elsewhere in class C2, #6 Caledonia-Mumford (9-9) will host #11 Marion (4-14), and #8 Pavilion (6-12) will host #9 Oakfield-Alabama (6-12). Both games will tip Feb. 21 at 7:00 p.m.
Livonia (8-10) earned the #5 seed in class B1, and the Bulldogs will travel to #4 Newark (10-8) Feb. 25 for a 7:00 p.m. matchup. On the same night in class B2, the #6 Dansville Mustangs (7-11) will visit #3 Hornell (12-5).
In class D1, #6 Mount Morris (8-10) will host #11 Romulus (4-14) Feb. 22 at 7:00 p.m.

LIVONIA — The Bulldogs Annual Invitational Track Meet ended almost as soon as it began on Friday May 13th after thunder was heard less than an hour into the meet.
Many of the top student athletes in Section V were invited to this event including competitors from Avon, Cal-Mum, Perry, Warsaw, Dansville, Lima Christian, Letchworth and York making the trip into Bulldog Country.
After waiting out the mandatory 30 minute wait after thunder was heard or lightening seen… the rains, wind and looming thunderstorms arrived on cue forcing the cancellation of this event. An announcement of a possible make up date is likely to follow sometime this week.

CALEDONIA — The Cal-Mum Red Raiders hosted the Warsaw Tigers in a Section V midweek match-up that ended with Warsaw firing a 3-point buzzer beater to sink Cal-Mum 48-45.
With the score tied at 45-45 and 18.5 seconds left Warsaw Head Coach, Rob Stedman called his favorite play named after his son.
"We practice that play a lot," said Stedman. "We have to switch up it's name now because it is so well scouted."
The high double screen didn't go quite like it was scripted, but a wide open Hayden Newcomb, from Warsaw, took advantage of the screen and fired a 3-point bomb from the top of the arc.
"I was confident of the shot," said Newcomb. "People think because of my height that i can't shoot but i can. This win was a team effort though, we are like a family."
Newcomb led Warsaw with 21 points and Christian Hallett led Cal-Mum with 15. Cal-Mum was up 27-23 at the half.
