Saranac's Brandon Velie (3) with the leaping catch across the middle for the first down. It would be the opening week of the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference and it would feature the Saranac Chiefs and Ticonderoga Sentinels. It would be a game that the Sentinels would be in control from start to finish. The Sentinels would have the 42-0 lead at the half. In the second half, the Sentinels would cruise and win the half 19-6 as the Chiefs would get a late score to avoid the shutout as the Sentinels would get the 61-6 victory. In the losing effort, the Chiefs start the season 0-1 while the Sentinels are 1-0. Gallery.
