Gowanda Small Town Times

April 25 was a bit slower for sports than most Spring days. There were no home games for Varsity with the track team and girls softball were both on the road.

The Varsity softball team was at Pine Valley. An 11-3 Gowanda win was reported, but no individual stats are available at this writing.

The boys and girls track teams were at West Valley with wins reported for both teams. The boys finished on top 77-60 while the girls blew past West Valley 74-41.
