The Bills and Visa honored Mehr for his leadership in guiding the Red Raiders to a 19-13 victory over Alexander/Pembroke. The win propelled Hornell/A-C to a 6-1 record for the season. Tyrone Buchanan's rushing touchdown with 5 minutes left in the fourth quarter secured the win. Matt Karr's 12 rushing yards, a touchdown, and a crucial play sealed the victory. Mehr, a Hornell alumnus and board-certified anesthesiologist, began his coaching career in 2002 after serving as an assistant to legendary coach Gene Mastin. The Buffalo Bills recognized Mehr's impact on and off the field, with his program receiving $1,000 and the region's Coach of the Year receiving an additional $1,000.",
