Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Mike Pettinella
Genesee County Spartans<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both on and off the field, the Genesee County Spartans achieved what they set out to do this season in the Northeastern Football Alliance semipro league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s the assessment of Head Coach Harry Rascoe and Board President Tammy Hathaway, who pointed to the team\u2019s 7-3 record and an \u201call for one, one for all\u201d attitude that bodes well for the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe made great strides this year, without a doubt,\u201d Rascoe said. \u201cOur only losses were to (league champion) Lockport and there were no instances of misconduct. We\u2019re only a couple players away from contending for the title.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In its return to the football scene last season, the organization was hampered by a lack of discipline on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hathaway said that the codes of conduct put into place this season and the leadership of the team\u2019s captains resulted in an organization that local fans could get behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSpeaking for the board of directors, I couldn\u2019t be more pleased with the players\u2019 performance in every aspect,\u201d Hathaway said. \u201cHopefully, we\u2019re building something special here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, the team learned that nine players were named as league all-stars and have been invited to play in an East vs. West game on Sept. 28 in Apalachin, home of the Broome County Stallions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All-stars on offense: Wide receiver Deyonci Farley, tackle Jordan Chambers and guard Anthony Natrigo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All-stars on defense: Linebackers Kaden Marucci and Marley English, linemen Gunner Rapone, Steve Kowalczyk and Jalen White, and defensive back\/returner Jzhon Henderson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rascoe said the team\u2019s awards banquet is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Oct. 5 at T.F. Brown\u2019s Restaurant in Batavia.
