ONONDAGA COUNTY – Now it’s clear that the Cicero-North Syracuse Blue girls golf team will once again have to outplay Fayetteville-Manlius Green for SCAC Metro division regular-season honors.
Both the Northstars and Hornets got key wins over Baldwinsville at Timber Banks three days apart, C-NS Blue doing so last Monday as it ignored soggy conditions to beat the Bees 168-225.
Isabella Borte’s nine-hole score of 38 nearly matched par and led the Northstars. Jessica Ricciardi and Chloe Tice both posted 42 as Natalie Hacker finished with a 48, each of them ahead of B’ville’s low round of 50 from Eva Pawelek.
In slightly drier conditions on Thursday afternoon, C-NS Blue returned to Lakeshore Country Club and, against West Genesee, was able to handle the Wildcats 178-234 to make it seven wins in a row.
Again, Borte was in front, her 40 easily beating the 44 from Ricciardi. Hacker improved to a 46 and Andrew Wheaton stepped up with a 48, each ahead of the low 54 from WG’s Sophia Simiele.
Ironically, that same day C-NS’s younger Green team met up with F-M Green, humbled by the Hornets in a 169-253 defeat at Green Lakes.
Lauren Sisk’s 59 was the low round for the Northstars. Melanie Dolson had a 62, ahead of Kate Bouziden (64) and Grace Didrio (68), with Erin Graves pacing F-M Green thanks to her 39.
Liverpool was back in action Friday at Hickory Hills and would take its shot against F-M Green, playing quite well, yet still losing to the Hornets 153-171.
Melanie Biviano shot a 40, with Ella Foriero getting a 43. Maddie Turck and Jewelyana Daniels both posted 44 as, leading a top-four F-M Green sweep, Alana Isley had 37 ahead of 38s from Gabby Dardis and Bella Fullmer.
