YORKSHIRE — The Fredonia girls flag football team played its first Division 2 South game of the season against the Pioneers on Wednesday, but was taken off the scoreboard and lost 26-0.
Fredonia (1-1, 0-1) couldn't reach the end zone, but Brianna Whitfield and Rosalis Aponte both had interceptions and the defense committed several turnovers. Whitfield also defended two passes and had five flag pulls, while Natalia DiPalma and Julianna Snyder also had five flag pulls. Francesca Pucci led the way with 10 flag pulls.
The Hillbillies return to action Friday against rival Dunkirk in the Orange Bowl.
