Photos: Dutch Are Battle Ready

It was a tough week for the Guilderland soccer team Head Coach Curtis Snyder said the effort was there even though the results weren’t. Guilderland traveled to Niskayuna last Thursday evening and lost a game that was closer than its 2-to-0 score. Then Guilderland played Colonie in the first round of the Class AA sectional and lost 1-0 on Wednesday afternoon at home.
