• Unbeaten Wallkill Valley Defeats Verona 14-0 Despite Impressive Verona Defense (TAPinto.net) — Verona High School's football team fell 14-0 at Wallkill Valley, but its defense turned in a strong performance, forcing two interceptions and a missed field goal. Despite several drives into Ranger territory and a big fourth-quarter opportunity, the Hillbillies couldn't break through offensively. Coaches and fans can still take heart that Verona held an unbeaten, high-scoring opponent well below its usual output.
