Painted Post NY- Pitching and hitting carried the Corning Hawks to their first ever win over the Elmira Express in the first ever game now that both districts have consolidated teams. Elmira started the scoring, plating a run in the first. The Hawks came back, riding the bat of catcher Megan Lewis who powered a two-run shot well beyond the leftfield fence.
Meanwhile, Quincy Lewis pitched her second complete game in as many days and retired 15 batters on strikeouts. She did, however, give up three homeruns, including two off the bat of Express first baseman Abbie Topping. Like her sister, Quincy Lewis also hit a pitch over the fence.According to "Q" she was just looking for a pitch to hit.
Corning Hawks Coach Mike Johnston was pleased with the team's effort following the 12-5 win vs Elmira.

Horseheads NY- Corning Hawks Girls Lacrosse Coach Kim McNaney was concerned about the team's defense prior to Wednesday's meeting with Horseheads. Message to Coach....everything looks good...the offense may sell alot of tickets this season based on their performance at the Raiders Lacrosse complex. Led by Senior Mallory Frysinger's 5 goals and 1 assist, the Hawks burned the twine for 20 goals and limited the Raiders to 4 scores, three in the first half, and were never threatened. Michelle Schwartz of Corning finised with six points(4 goals/2 assists).The win snaps a one game losing streak.
Endicott NY- Prior to this season's staart Corning Hawks Coach Bob Streeten might have reason to be concerned about his offensive firepower. Afterall the Hawks graduated nearly 90% of its starting attack. Well, not to worry...three games into the season, the young Hawks spread the wealth around enroute to a 14-1 thrashing of Union Endicott.Thirteen different Corning players figured in the scoring as the Hawks improve 3-0. Jake Woodhouse led the scoring with three goals whilte Jordan Crusha and Eli McCaig finished with two.McCaig also had two assists. Corning travels next to Owego Saturday for an 11AM game.
