The spring sports season is well underway in Section V. But before they dive all the way in, AJ Feldman and Carl Jones discuss the News 8 Primetime 585 Elite award show for the winter sports season.
Earlier this week, Dyaisha Fair, an Edison Tech grad and former Syracuse guard, was drafted 16th overall to the Las Vegas Aces in the 2024 WNBA Draft. Carl was in Brooklyn for the festivities and shared his experience in the city (1:55).
The New York State Sportswriters Association released their initial rankings for girls lacrosse and the lists were littered with Section V teams. Rush-Henrietta was the highest ranked of four Class A schools from the area. The News 8 duo broke down how an early season injury for Fairport will have an impact on this class (5:50).
There were five Section V schools ranked in the top 20 for Class B with Victor leading the way at third. Carl and AJ discuss the play of the Brighton Bruins and how their record does not tell the entire story (9:16).
In Class C, Mercy was the lone Section V representative as they were ranked 20th (14:15). Penn Yan, led by Bailey Cooper, was ranked second in Class D by the sportswriters (16:35).
They wrap up the show with two games to watch in the coming days. Carl talks about the Canandaigua/Honeoye Falls-Lima in boys lacrosse while AJ goes to the diamond to speak on the McQuaid/Aquinas game (18:28).
