The Syracuse Strong is a talented machine comprised of great coaching and superior talent. On their own, they can beat any team respectfully, but poke the bear and you’ll get the claws.
In their first road game of the season, the Strong encountered a familiar foe: the Lockport Wildcats.
Syracuse faced the Wildcats in the NFA Championship game last season. Certainly, it was a hotly contested battle on the field, but what happened off the field ticked off the entire Syracuse Strong organization.
Despite the game being played in the lovely confines of the Valley Sports Complex, Lockport tried to make it their own home field advantage in what many deemed a disrespectful manner.
