Staff Reports

In a see-saw game, Medina and visiting Batavia battled to a 3-3 tie Tuesday in a Genesee Youth Soccer League U16 Division game.

Medina held a slender 1-0 halftime advantage on a goal by Megan McCann before the scoring really picked up down the stretch.

Batavia opened the second half with a two-goal scoring burst to grab what proved to be the visitors only lead at 2-1.

Medina answered back with a pair of goals on tallies by McCann and Kelly Bower.

However, Medina could not hold the advantage because Batavia answered again with a goal in the final three minutes to earn the 3-3 tie.

The tie is the third of the season for Medina which is undefeated at 3-0-3.

Medina, which also tied Mt. Morris 2-2 and Pembroke 1-1, holds wins over Pembroke (2-1), Pavilion (3-1) and Elba (4-2).

Batavia is now 2-4-2.

Medina next hosts Attica at 6:30 p.m. this evening.
