“They (Susquehannock) are always a district playoff team, so we anticipated a tough game,” said head coach Emily Lebo. “The girls played a great game, and we got a nice result.” L-S last Wednesday night section leader Ephrata prevailed in a tight 1-0 final. “It’s a challenge to play four games in six days with two of them being huge section games,” Lebo stated. VOLLEYBALL The volleyball team suffered a 3-0 loss to Ephrata on Sept. 23 and then dropped a 3-1 result at Cocalico on Sept. 28, running their record to 2-4. In tournament action on the 25th they blanked Upper Dauphin but lost to Eastern York in five sets. FIELD HOCKEY The field hockey team scored six goals over four games but came away without a single win over the last week. They opened with a 3-2 overtime loss against Manheim Central on the 23rd and six days later dropped a second OT result, this one 4-3 at Elizabethtown. L-S held a 3-2 lead over the Bears with one quarter left but couldn’t deny the hosts who got a pair of goals from Regan Flory, including the game-winner. Marissa Rice put L-S on the board in the first while Rowan Kimmel and Maggie Swarr scored third quarter goals. Brooke Zuber recorded nine saves. Against the Barons, both teams found the back of the net in the second and fourth quarters but needed OT to determine the outcome. Rice and Ally Raub were the goal scorers with Tori Heiserman adding two assists.

ing in they had scored over 50 goals and had only given up two,” noted head coach Katrina Swarr. “To hold them to one goal was encouraging.” At home last Monday, LS took a 1-0 lead against Ephrata on Kimmel’s first quarter goal, but it wasn’t enough. The Mounts slowly gained momentum, taking advantage of Pioneer miscues to forge ahead 3-1. Two strokes and a handful of cards made for an interesting game. Zuber did deny one of those strokes. “We have juniors and seniors on the field that are rather inexperienced with varsity play,” said Swarr. “We have to take care of things like catching the ball, receiving inserts and getting our feet out of the way and then look to make the magic happen.” For more photos see townlively.com.

senior quarterback Berkeley Wagner rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns and threw for two more scores as the Pioneers ran away with a 42-2 victory, their fourth straight. L-S scored on its first possession, a Wagner one-yard keeper that capped a nine-play drive. In the second quarter, Jonathan Mellinger returned an interception 23 yards for a 14-0 lead. The Vikings followed with a safety, but the visitors shrugged that off when Wagner found Austin Cole with a 27-yard scoring strike to push the lead to 28-2 at the break. Wagner completed 9-of-11 passes, with Drexton Frank hauling in five, for 155 yards and rushed for another 126 to pace the offense. Carson Coleman added 48 rushing yards and Hildenbrand chipped in with 35. Mellinger scored on a four-yard TD run early in the third and Wagner raced from 32-yards out to cap the scoring. Defensively, Julian Lopez and Jackson Heeter both recorded seven solo tackles.
