Wednesday, September 16, 2026: Cortland football is off to a strong start through the first two games of the season, and the Red Dragons’ defense has been a big reason why. Cortland has allowed just 18 points, including a dominant 26-0 shutout at Union last week. Senior linebacker Joe Galea, the Empire 8’s Co-Defensive Player of the Week, joins BTL to look back at the win, his big impact early in the season, and what’s allowed this Cortland defense to come out firing to start the year.
