Long touchdown runs by Dom Gullo and Nick Whitfield in the second half led the Fredonia Hillbillies past Falconer-Cassadaga Valley, 12-10, in Falconer.

After trailing 3-0 after a fairly uneventful first half, Gullo scored the first touchdown on the second-half kickoff. Whitfield added the second on a 70-yard scamper down the sideline.

Fredonia is now 1-1 and has its first home game this weekend against Chautauqua Lake in Dunkirk.
