SALAMANCA — With the high school fall sports season fast approaching, there is little time to waste for teams with aspirations of success.

The Salamanca girls soccer team takes that sentiment to heart.

As the clock moved to 12 a.m. on Monday Aug. 18 — the first day fall sports teams are permitted to practice — the Warriors were led out onto the field by head coach Kersten Furlong as they officially got their season underway.
