Plattsburgh's Trenton Griffiths (13) breaks it out in the open field for the big gain. It would be Week #3 of the Champlain Valley Atheltic Conference season and the Plattsburgh Hornets would be hosting the Ticonderoga Sentinels on what would be early senior night for the Hornets. The Ticonderoga Sentinels would get the quick score and lead as they would run back the opening kick of the game 82 yards for the score thanks to Ayden Smith. Although the Hornets would answer back in a swarm with 33 points in the first quarter with four scores from Trenton Griffiths and one from Michael Phillips as they would have a 33-6 lead at the end of the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Hornets would add to more Braeden McGinnis and Dylan Crowley-Williams as the Hornets would lead 47-6 at the half. When the teams returned for the second half the teams would trade a pair of scores as you could see the Hornets had downshifted for the half scoring for the Hornets would be Colin Golden and Landon Coon while scoring for the Sentinels would be Connor Yaw and Vigliotti. As the Plattsburgh Hornets would hold onto the 60-18 victory and go to 2-2 on the season while the Sentinels go to 0-4 on the season.
