Caldwell ran for two touchdowns on the night as the Golden Cougars shut out the Black Knights 42-0 in Falconer. The contest was called after three quarters due to a lack of healthy players for Silver Creek. Photo by the Observer

The Yankees, who recently had a 13-game winning streak, now seems like a distant memory as they have lost 11 of their last 13 games since that streak. The Bronx Bombers lost Friday's game 10-3.
