"Scouting" the Watkins Glen/Odessa-Montour Seneca Indians

W-G/O-M seeks rebound after tough season

StarGazette.com: Watkins Glen/Odessa-Montour went through some growing pains in year two of the combined program last year, winning just one of seven games.

Second-year head coach Trevor Holland is hoping to see the 2017 team closer to the 7-2 inaugural group that advanced to the Section 4 Class C playoffs.

Last year's team included a lot of new varsity faces following the graduations of numerous key members of the 2015 squad. Experience should be a plus this season, with several familiar faces back for Holland.

The returning group includes Dylan Houseknecht, Wrett Brower, Wyatt Brower, Kameryn Sheldon, Zach Elliott, Joe Chedzoy, Sean Kelly and Casen Weeden.

"The key to the Seneca Indians' strength this season is the experienced junior class," Holland said. "Most of them started as sophomores and gained a tremendous amount of experience during a tough 2016 schedule. Their determination for improvement will drive our success this season."
