We celebrate a packed weekend across the Mohawk Valley, from Utica’s postseason hopes and Section 3 football titles to a frank conversation with Utica men’s hockey coach Gary Heenan and a culture masterclass from RFA field hockey coach McKenzie Welter. The throughline is identity under pressure and how strong programs turn talent into standards.

• Utica football’s bubble watch and key local results
• Section 3 championship highlights across A, B, C, D and eight-man
• National college football shake-ups and playoff implications
• Utica men’s hockey schedule strategy and early-season reset
• Building a heavy, possession identity and accountability
• Goaltending depth, late additions and freshman upside
• RFA field hockey’s three-peat and team unity
• Young core impact and late-game composure
• Goalkeeper leadership and shared defensive trust
• Ten-year program growth and aligned youth pipeline
