4/24/2009 Berkshire United @ Schenectady Chargers U-19

This game was played Collins Park of Scotia, NY...overlooking the General Electric Plant.

Schenectady 22 - 46 Berkshire

Schenectady scored first through their halfback dotting down in the corner. From there though, it was one way traffic. The Schenectady boys were getting too sucked in to the breakdowns and Berkshire took full advantage of their size in the backline...breaking tackle after tackle and scoring try after try.

In the 2nd half Schenectady managed to get a bit more possession and force Berkshire into conceding some penalties. They marched up field and managed to dot down a few tries, but Berkshire still had the last word...again using their superior loose play and size.

Overall it was a well played game. It seemed Berkshire felt they had it all wrapped up at the end of the first half (they did) and let up in the 2nd half, committing some lazy penalties.

I had a video of this game...will post some interesting clips when I get them....
