Lowville, General Brown top expanded Section III Class C football bracket

Lowville and General Brown are the top two seeds in the expanded Section III Class C football playoffs, setting up a possible rematch between last year’s sectional finalists. The teams are in opposite halves of the 16-team bracket and could meet only in the championship game.

Lowville is seeded first with a listed 6-1 overall record and a 3-0 mark in Class C-1. General Brown is seeded second at 5-2 overall and 2-1 in C-1, according to the published playoff bracket.

Both teams are scheduled to host first-round games at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22. Lowville will face No. 16 Weedsport/Jordan-Elbridge, while General Brown will host No. 15 Westhill.

The teams met earlier this season in Lowville on Sept. 11, when Lowville won 30-14. Lowville later defeated Skaneateles 51-6 on Oct. 2 and Canastota 66-14 on Oct. 9.

Lowville and General Brown each won a sectional title in 2025. Their placement in opposite halves of this year’s bracket leaves open the possibility of another meeting in the Class C final.

Other North Country teams are scheduled to begin postseason play during the same week. South Jefferson, listed at 2-5, is scheduled to host Camden, listed at 5-2, in a Class B play-in game at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 23.
