Summary:  Last year Corning knocked off Ithaca by 25-34, and this year's contest could again be close between two top 10 ranked teams. Corning dominated at the recent STAC championship, but the S4-A is often much tighter. Silas Derfel was 2nd to Kevin Moshier (graduated) at last year's race, but this year he has separated himself from the pack.

Summary: Maine-Endwell won by 34-40 over Owego last year, but the tables could be turned this year as Owego finished well ahead of the othe S4-B teams at STAC. Johnson City has also put together a strong competitor here, so this should be the tightest three-way battle in years. Parker Stokes was 2nd to graduated teammate Matt Goyden last year, and he is far ahead at the top.

Summary:  Watkins Glen dream of a 2016 season included a Federation title over the big teams, and though not as deep as last year, this year's squad will win the S4-C title and move on as one of the favorites for the States title again. Gabe and Aaron Planty are the top guys in S4-C, and Gabe will likely win here after finishing 2nd to teammate Patrick Hazlitt last year.

Summary: Delhi and Trumansburg finished 3rd and 2nd to Elmira-Notre Dame last year, but this year one of the two will win the S4-D title. Delhi appears to have a little more depth, and Trumansburg's Evan Whittaker is the clear individual favorite after winning at IAC.
