Syracuse Strong: Epic goal-line stand holds off late rally from Monroe County

The weather in Syracuse can be very weird and that’s been the case the entirety of this summer season.

Although in the heart of July we witnessed an absolute scorcher with temperatures surging in the 90s between the Syracuse Strong and the Monroe County Sting.

Both teams entered the gridiron undefeated and Syracuse Strong team president Khalid Bey said it best prior to the game, “One of these zeroes has got to go.”

Throughout the season the Strong have faced every team’s best shot. After gaining a ton of notoriety in their National Championship season in 2018, every team wants to be the one to knock them off in 2019.
