Fayetteville-Manlius struck first in its eventual loss, with Jack Nucerino taking a short pass 30 yards for a score.
MANLIUS — Cicero-North Syracuse (4-0) and Fayetteville-Manlius (3-1) were supposed to play on Friday night before weather postponed the game to Saturday. In a battle of previously unbeatens on Saturday afternoon, it was the Northstars that proved superior, winning 35-21 at Fayetteville-Manlius High School. Behind two touchdowns from Jaiquawn McGriff and a fourth-and-goal stand, C-NS showed why it’s the defending Class AA sectional champions.
Here’s the highlights from the Northstars’ win over the Hornets.
