Editor’s Prologue

By Sandie Biddle, managing editor Editor@CentreCountyGazette.com CCGazette@Hughes.net

Mark your preference: www.centrecountygazette.com

It’s with great pride that I’ll be accepting a Media Recognition Award from the Pennsylvania Association of School Retirees on behalf of The Gazette. I’ll discover the reason that The Gazette won this statewide award after this issue hits the newsstands, so more next week. But I can promise you, we are committed to highlighting the accomplishments, good deeds, and triumphs of our younger readers. This is a newspaper where good kids and good schools are considered news.

A bit of serendipity led to Sam Stitzer experiencing the PSU opportunity of a lifetime.

Don Bedell and I offered Sam our seat in the press box at the homecoming game last Saturday.

He jumped at the chance. Little did we know that this faithful alum and former Blue Band trumpeter had been at Beaver Stadium for three decades of homecoming games, but had never seen it from the vaunted heights of the press box. Sam has done so much for The Gazette. We’re glad we got to give him a memorable experience.

There are so many community events this weekend, you’ll have a hard time choosing.

Bargain hunters will be giddy with the choices at a half-dozen fall craft festivals and bazaars – the big one in Lemont and others in Snow Shoe, Howard, Tusseyville, and Sprucetown.

This weekend you have a rare opportunity to ride an historic train, thanks to The Bellefonte Historical Railroad Society. You could enjoy a lively Acoustic Brew bluegrass concert or experience Big Bands’ finest, the Glenn Miller Orchestra. Discover the fun side of getting in shape at the Bellefonte YMCA Fitness Festival, attend a comedy show for a good cause, or enjoy a top-notch concert at St. John’s United Church of Christ in Bellefonte, as they celebrate their congregation’s 175th anniversary.

The Gazette Stock Market Game Challenge is in full swing. We have the first of ten weeks of results in this issue, with Penns Valley in the lead. It’s anyone’s guess who will finish first.

We’ll give you weekly updates.

Halloween isn’t just one day in Centre County, it’s 10 days! See the center of this issue for events beginning today (10/21) and continuing through October 31. Don’t miss the display of hundreds of lighted jack-o’-lanterns at the Penn State Arboretum, or the Punkin Chunkin at the Howard Fall Festival at Bald Eagle State Park. How about a Haunted Bog Walk at Black Moshannon State Park, the Benner Township Haunted Trail, the Haunted House in Pleasant Gap, or the Fall Festival and Haunted Trail at Penn State’s Shaver’s Creek Environmental Center? All this weekend!

Next week: more Halloween and something darn near as frightening – choosing politicians to represent us for the next few years. I’ve invited those running to serve Centre Countians to state their cases in 300 words or fewer – just positive why-choose-me messages – no sniping, griping, or hyping. Election Day is Tuesday, November 8.

Enjoy another mild fall weekend! Take in a concert or an exhibit by local artists. And make a wish on a falling star, which shouldn’t be too hard at the peak of the Orionids Meteor Shower.

Meet the Penns Valley Team

The students winning in the first week of the ten-week competition are from Penns Valley High School.

Meet the CPI Stock Market Team

Recently, John Rodgers and Steve Invasile of Fulton Bank met with the CPI students that are participating in the Centre County Gazette Stock Market Game Challenge from EconomicsPennsylvania. The students playing in this special competition are 11th-graders, Katie Cramer and Loren Newman.

Mr. Rodgers shared, “When talking to the students, they were very excited about the game and truly interested in learning about the stock market. That was really fun and refreshing to see and hear. At Fulton Bank, we are committed to help with financial education, which this program definitely helps. We have two branches in Centre County – on the Bellefonte Pike, in Bellefonte and another on North Atherton Street in State College.”

The young ladies have been following about 70 different stocks for the last three weeks, before making their first selection of stocks for the competition, this week. While at the end of the fourth day, Penns Valley’s students, under the leadership of Jane Brook are in the lead, it’s still anyone’s game.

The Central Pennsylvania Institute of Science & Technology was established in 1969 as the Centre County Vocational-Technical School. In November 1998, the school’s name was changed to reflect its competencies in scientific and technical education for high school students and the adult community.

Today, CPI offers more than 18 secondary programs, more than 60 in-house adult & continuing education programs, and more than 350 online courses. CPI offers certification in a wide range of disciplines, a notable advantage to CPI graduates and their employers.

The school’s mission is to produce highly competent individuals who are prepared and motivated to pursue the high-skill careers of the 21st century.

One team of three to five high school students will represent each school – Bald Eagle, Bellefonte, Penns Valley and State College High Schools, along with Central Pennsylvania Institute for Science and Technology (CPI). Each team is given $100,000 in hypothetical money and invests in the stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. The team with the most money at the end wins. The top three teams will be listed in the newspaper each week during the game, which began October 19 and ends December 16.

This program is sponsored by The Gazette and local businesses, Fulton Bank, ProAct LTD, Lion Country KIA, and Videon Central, Inc.

Through seminars, workshops, course offerings, and other instructional resources, EconomicsPennsylvania aids educators in their preparation to teach students how to become productive members of the labor force, responsible and informed voters, prudent savers and investors, knowledgeable consumers, and life-long decision makers.

Anna & Raymond Holderman Compassionate Teamwork

By Brian E. Bassett

Anna and Raymond Holderman were raised in Centre County – and have resided at their present Bellefonte location for 28 years.

“Mrs. Holderman has tirelessly and steadfastly given of herself as a housewife, mother, neighbor, and church member,” remarked Shawn Cox, neighbor and fellow church member. “She is a model of quiet humility, compassion and servitude – never hesitating to reach out to those in need.”

The Holdermans are very much involved with the Living Help Alliance Church on Howard Street in Bellefonte where Anna is a deaconess and Raymond is head usher and a trustee.

As a deaconess, Anna helps the pastor take care of communion, teaches Sunday school, plans various church events, and sends get-well, birthday, and anniversary cards to church members. Raymond assists with church maintenance – and in past years, worked at

grounds keeping and lawn mowing.

When not tending to church matters, the Holdermans take care of their grandchildren and Raymond’s brother when he needs their assistance. They’re dedicated to their family and church.

Anna insists that without Raymond’s help taking care of family affairs, she would be hard-pressed to meet her responsibilities to those who depend on her.

“I wish I had time to do more,” Anna said earnestly. “It seems that when I have the energy, I run out of time – and when I have the time I run out of energy!”

The Holdermans are credited with being a blessing to their church and community.

They are always ready with a positive word, a comforting smile, and a hand-up when it is needed.

“I think they’re a very special couple,” concluded Shawn. “And they deserve to be recognized.”

Collars & Chronic Disease?

The wrong dog collar in the wrong hands can be dangerous. Think it’s not true? Try this.

Put a choke collar around your head, attach it to a leash, and ask a (kind) friend to give it a few tugs. If you want to go further, try the shock collar or the prong collar. It’s very uncomfortable and nobody wants to do this particular experiment. Welcome to the world of injuries and disease for your dog.

The other day, I watched a man trying to walk a puppy on a leash with a choke collar.

The poor little pup was struggling to get to another dog that was close by but the owner had a different idea. He was determined to prevent his puppy from going any closer, and he jerked and pulled and yanked on that dog until it coughed and gagged and even fell over once. It was so hard to watch. I just kept thinking about the injuries he could be inflicting on that dog and not even knowing it.

The neck and cervical spine are the most important energy paths in the whole body.

It is where the front leg nerves originate and it is the channel through which the nerves controlling the internal organ functions pass.

The thyroid gland that regulates the body’s metabolism is also located there. If the flow of energy in the neck is interrupted or restricted, a whole array of problems may arise, including lameness, skin issues, allergies, lung and heart problems, digestive issues, ear and eye conditions, thyroid gland dysfunctions, among others. The alignment of the neck is a major contributor to the health of your dog.

Hypothyroidism seems to be a correlation to pulling on the leash (breeds such as Labs and Shepherds seem to be particularly prone to this condition). A choke collar pushes on the throat exactly where the thyroid sits. This gland can be traumatized, becoming inflamed and possibly attacked by the body’s immune system when trying to remove the inflamed thyroid cells. The destruction of thyroid cells leads to the deficit of the hormone the gland produces. Symptoms of hypothyroidism include low energy levels, weight gain, skin problems, hair loss, and personality issues.

Ear and eye issues can also be caused by pulling on a leash. A choke collar restricts the blood and lymphatic flow to and from the head, which can then causes frequent infections among other conditions.

Paw licking and foreleg lameness also can be related to pulling because of the impingement on the nerves supplying the front legs with energy. This can lead to an abnormal sensation in the feet, which can cause the dog to start licking. These dogs are often misdiagnosed as allergic, when all that needs to be done is to remove the collar and treat the neck injury.

Some dogs suffer severe whiplash-like injuries from being jerked around via their collar. Extension leashes do not help because they encourage dogs to pull and they are faced with the inevitable jerk at the end of the lead.

The bottom line is that collar injury can be at the root of many issues for dogs in later life. It’s just not worth the risk. So how can we reduce the dangers?

Harnesses – A Collar Alternative

Harnesses that have the leash attached at the front of the chest seem all wrong, but in reality they are exactly right. They distribute the pressure of tugs and jerks throughout the whole body and keep the neck and throat free from pressure. Harnesses that attach on the back are alright, but they still restrict the front part of the neck, pressing on veins, arteries, nerves, and other energy channels. Use the harness only when leash-walking and take it off when your dog is off leash. Ensure that the harness does not rub on the body and that it is washed regularly.

Gentle leaders are also gaining popularity and if used correctly, they can work. But again, you have to be careful because they also have a good chance for injury if not used properly.

The absolute best way to eliminate all danger, no matter what collar or harness you use, is to teach your dog to walk loose-leash.

It’s not hard to do and your dog will benefit from not only the bonding of a nice walk, but also from not being uncomfortable while out.

BELLEFONTE – The Annual Dinner and Awards Presentation of the Bellefonte Intervalley Chamber of Commerce was October 12 at Celebration Hall in State College.

Gary V, Hoover, executive director, welcomed the attending members and guests and introduced Nicholas Lingenfelter of First National Bank as the newly elected chamber president. Mr. Lingenfelter thanked his predecessor, retiring President Matthew J. Hill of the Logan Branch Insurance Agency, for his work and congratulated him on a successful term.

In his remarks, Mr. Lingenfelter noted that the chamber was formed in 1938 to serve and promote its members and foster community and economic development within the Bellefonte intervalley area, a role that it continues today.

After dinner, Mr. Hill introduced Phyllis J. Corman and presented her with the Chamber’s Life Member Award in recognition of her numerous achievements and her service to the community and the Chamber in many leadership roles over the years.

Mr. Lingenfelter then introduced Holly A. Wilson and presented her with the Chamber’s Community Service Award. In making the presentation, he cited Ms. Wilson’s work as the President of Historic Bellefonte, Inc. and for her role as a community builder and leader.

Mr. Hoover presented out-going President Matthew J. Hill with a plaque commemorating his term of office and spoke about Mr. Hill’s personal donation of time and effort to the chamber and his leadership.

The chamber’s annual report was presented by Mr. Hoover. He noted that the Chamber’s membership remained stable over the past year, despite the tough economy – recruiting some new members and losing some.

Highlights of the chamber’s operations over the past year included: • Five major media promotional projects that benefited the Bellefonte Intervalley Area in general • Chamber representation at Bellefonte special events and regional events like the Grange Fair and the Expo specifically to promote its members • Sponsorship of a volunteer fair to help local non-profits and civic groups recruit citizens to further their community work • Operation of the Train Station Visitor’s Center in partnership with the Central PA Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Bellefonte Historical Railroad Society • The expanded provision of information and assistance to visitors and local residents • The success the chamber has had avoiding dues increases for more than three years.

Also mentioned were the Chamber’s establishment of a member-to-member discount club, the successful 7th Annual Croquet Tournament and other regular activities, and many instances of partnering with and assisting community groups.

Free Child Car Seat Check Oct. 21 STATE COLLEGE – PennDOT’s certified Child Passenger Seat (CPS) technicians will be available from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Friday, October 21 to check children’s car seats at Dix Honda, 2796 West College Avenue, State College.

Parents and guardians attending the check should bring their child in his or her car seat if possible. It is also beneficial to have the car seat manual and the owner’s manual for the vehicle. Technicians can still check the seat without the child or manuals.

The free seat check follows a week of training in which the CPS technicians learned how to assist parents and caregivers in the four areas of child passenger safety: rear-facing car seats, forward-facing car seats, booster seats, and seat belts.

The technicians join more than 34,000 trained CPS technicians and instructors in the United States. PennDOT funds resources such as training and educational materials for fitting stations across Pennsylvania, which checked more than 5,000 car seats last year. These checks found that four in five child passenger seats were used improperly.

For more information on child passenger safety and to view a list of car seat checks, visit www.DriveSafePA.org, then “Traffic Safety Information Center” and “Child Passenger Safety.”

BELLEFONTE – Experience the magic of a train chugging past the changing autumn leaves, thanks to The Bellefonte Historical Railroad Society.

Tickets are on sale now for its Fall Foliage Train Rides, boarding on the railroad track at the Bellefonte Train Station in Talleyrand Park on October 22 and 23. Passengers will view the fall colors from 1940’s Pennsylvania Railroad cars.

BHRS is sponsoring a choice of three rides. The first trip – to Pleasant Gap on Saturday, October 22, at 10:30 a.m. – is sold out. The second trip the same day to Tyrone at 1:30 p.m. with a stop at the Tyrone Area Historical Museum, is nearly sold out. The last trip to Lock Haven, will be the following day – Sunday, October 23 – also at 1:30 p.m. Trips to Tyrone and Lock Haven will last three hours and cost $30.

The restored historical passenger cars will make the runs under a contractual agreement between BHRS and Jeff Pontius of Sunbury, owner of Penn Valley Lines. Locomotives and the engine crew will be donated by the Nittany & Bald Eagle Railroad – which operates the track in Bellefonte – and its parent company, North Shore Railroad; SEDACOG’s Joint Rail Authority, the insurance.

BHRS, chartered in 1984, is currently trying to rebuild after a number of setbacks. Its on-display cars, a 1953 Rail Diesel Car (#9167) and a 1962 RDC (#9153), don’t operate and are the object of donations, as are its 1920’s snow plow car and its rare 1922 wooden caboose, both from the old Bellefonte Central Railroad.

In sponsoring its Fall Foliage Train Rides, the BHRS is still serving the public.

For tickets, stop by the Train Station in Talleyrand Park, call 355-1053 or order through PayPal at bellefontetrain.org.

The Bellefonte Historic Rail Society sponsors train rides at various times throughout the year to raise funds for rail car renovations. The Fall Foliage rides are this weekend.

The second-floor hallway at the pre-school finally got finished this year.

A chilly but sunny morning welcomed Day of Caring volunteers to Medlar Field for breakfast.

Penn State Football – The View From the Top Article & photos by Sam Stitzer

A long time ago, this reporter was fortunate enough to be a member of the Penn State Blue Band. I marched and played my trumpet on the turf of Beaver Stadium many times, and returned each year for 32 years for the Homecoming football game, marching in the Alumni Band. However, in all those years, I never watched a game, or even set foot in the Beaver Stadium press box – until now.

Last Wednesday, I received an email from Gazette editor Sandie Biddle, asking me if I wanted to go to the game on October 15, and sit in the press box, since both of our sports reporters, Les Barnhart and Matt Masullo were unable to attend. I debated this question for all of two seconds before replying with a definite yes!

My game-day experience began at 10 a.m. when I met Gazette General Manager, Don Bedell in the parking lot between the Target and Kohl’s stores outside State College. Don drove us to the game in his Toyota RAV-4 in bumper to bumper traffic all the way. We hopped on a tram in the stadium parking lot and rode to the south end of the stadium. We flashed our press credentials and were admitted (free) to the stadium, where we rode the elevator to level three of the press box. We were shown to our seats in the box, where I was immediately awestruck!

I felt like a country boy tourist in New York City, staring up at the skyscrapers, except that I was staring down in awe at the huge expanse of turf and steel we call Beaver Stadium. The view from up there was amazing! We were seated aligned with about the 15 yard line, but even at that vantage point there was a clear, unobstructed view of the entire playing field.

From outside, the press box is a large, impressive structure, but inside it is long and quite narrow, with hallways, stairwells, and elevator shafts which must be zig-zagged around when walking from one end to the other. The ceiling is low, and cluttered with steel beams. The press seating accommodations are austere, with plastic chairs and plain white countertops. The high winds of the day produced whistling sounds around leaky windows, and some noticeable shaking of the whole structure, which was a bit creepy! A constant barrage of airborne debris (snack bags, napkins, etc.) flew by the huge windows, out over the stands, and often onto the field throughout the day.

One of the nicer press perks was a full buffet of free food. Don and I helped ourselves to bacon, scrambled eggs, and fruit upon our arrival, then Don took the elevator down to Alumni Drum Major Chip field level, where he spent his time getting Willis (class of 1971) on photographs during the game. the sidelines.

As the pre-game pageantry began, I had a great view of the Blue Band and Alumni Band performing on the field. I found myself wishing, for the moment, that I was down there with them. As kickoff time arrived, an announcement came over the press box public address speakers reminding us that this was a “working press box; there will be no cheering in the press box.” It was tough to be an unbiased journalist, and not cheer for my Alma Mater on homecoming, and I heard several muffled, staccato cheers from other journalAlumni Band members (in white jackets) took their seats ists down the line when Penn as the stadium filled up.

State players made long runs or interceptions. We’re supposed to be impartial journalists, but in a room full of PSU employees and graduates, I guess some allowances can be made.

I noticed that most of the other journalists there were using laptop computers to take notes, while I was using a notepad. No, not the software, I mean a real notepad, with The Lions ran their final play of the game.

One of the perks that comes with doing this article for the Gazette is that people recommend new books to me all the time.

Richard Montanari lives in Great Britain, but is originally from Cleveland, OH where he met my niece and she sent him my card and he sent me his latest book. Complicated, but it worked, and to my delight I can share The Echo Man with you.

Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano have been partners as homicide detectives in Philadelphia for a long time, long enough to know each other well and to have seen some horrific crimes. Now they are investigating a series of crimes that seem to be connected to unsolved murders from the past.

The new crime scenes are duplicates of the old scenes only this time the bodies are mutilated and the killer has left an

p a p e r, and notes scrawled in ball point pen.

I felt a bit inferior for a moment, but kept Your reporter working hard! telling myself that real journalists don’t need computers! Printed game statistics sheets were handed out to us after each quarter, to help The Nittany Lion warmed up the crowd. us reporters keep track. They were very complete, with records of every play, stating who carried the ball, yardage gained, first downs, and a host of other statistics.

In a glass-enclosed booth beside me were two young men from the PSU campus radio station WKPS, doing a radio broadcast of the game. Their volume and animation level rose exponentially each time Penn State neared the goal line, or made a big play. It was fun to see their youthful enthusiasm and energy, and they seemed to be having the time of their lives! Ah, to be young again!

At half time, I once again had a perfect view of the band performances. Of course, I may be a little biased, but I think the Penn State Blue Band is the finest college band in the country. With their wailing trumpets, booming low brass, and alto horns and Blue Band made a PSU formation. woodwinds filling in the midrange parts, they produce a full, rich, and balanced sound like no other band in the land. The excellent percussion, silks, and majorettes are the icing on the cake of showmanship.

The sight of 400 white spats rising and falling in unison as the Drum Major flies ahead, sticking his famous flip brings chills and tears of intense pride to this old alumnus!

With five minutes of playing time remaining in the game, press box journalists are allowed to go down to the field. I went down and joined Don Third-quarter action – PSU with the ball.

Bedell in watching the final exciting minutes of the game and took photos as we celebrated another Nittany Lion victory.

We watched the bands’ post-game performance and took more photos. I saw a few familiar Alumni Band faces, including Jack Miller (PSU class of 1954), who was Penns Valley High School’s band director for 30 years. Mr. Miller was my director in the 1960s, and he taught me much about music, marching, discipline, and commitment.

To say I had a good time that day would be a huge understatement. It was a great experience, which I will never forget.

Blue Band and alumni played post-game songs.

The view from the top is good, and I’m very grateful that I had a chance to see it.

unusual calling card. It becomes obvious that the victims have been tortured by a person with a sadistic mind.

The Echo Man builds with so many twists that it is not fair to tell much of the plot; I would not want to draw attention to a clue that the reader should find for himself.

I can, though, tell you about the skill of the author.

It has become a trick of suspense novels to get us into the mind of the killer. Never identifying the person, but giving the reader a glimpse of how the mad mind works.

Montanari handles this with a flair that is

almost poetic and still builds the suspense.

I could feel the person falling deeper into madness as the story went along.

I really liked the detectives, Jessica and Kevin. They come to this book with a background that intrigues me and I want to read earlier books to find what made them the people that they are. I also want to see what becomes of them personally in the future.

My only complaint, and it is a small one, at times Montanari breaks the rhythm of the story to explain a term or word that would have been clear in context. But, as I said, that was a small matter. All in all I have found a new author who will fill in the space on my shelves right beside David Baldachi.

Bloodcurdling Events

Indian Caverns – Home to Serial Killer Ghost?

In June 1966, 19-year-old Tom was a tour guide at Indian Caverns. No one could have imagined the evil, the lust for murder and blood he desired. In August 1966, a family, whose names have been kept secret went missing after reporting to family that they were headed for a day trip to tour Indian Caverns. Authorities were able to determine Tom’s involvement in their disappearance and other disappearances over the years.

When questioned, Tom ran into the caverns to escape into a maze of endless tunnels. He was never reported seen again.

During cave renovations in 1986 a large room was discovered, and inside were remains of bodies. Ever since the discovery, tour guides have reported hearing a strange man giving a

Even Rain Can’t Dampen Bonfilio’s Tournament Experience

By Les Barnhart

T h e District 6 golf tournament opened last Wednesday at Penn State’s White Course. The two day tournament was cut short due to rainy weather on Wednesday.

One of the golfers in the field was St. Joseph’s Catholic Academy’s freshman Kinsley Bonfilio. She opened the round on Wednesday and was on her way to posting a very good

number through six holes but the weather halted play for the day making it a single day tournament on Thursday. Unable to build on her solid start the day before, Bonfilio posted a 109, some eight strokes above her average, to finish 18th. The resilient freshman maintained her positive attitude after the round, stating that she was glad to have been able to make Districts and have the experience of playing in the postseason tournament.

Wheldon, Two-time Indy 500 Winner, Dies in Crash

By Les Barnhart

LAS VEGAS – Tragedy struck the world of auto racing last Sunday in the IZOD Indy Car Series as Dan Wheldon was killed in a fiery 15-car accident early in the season’s final race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Wheldon, 33, was a two-time winner of the Indianapolis 500 with his last win coming at the famous track in May. He also won the series championship in 2005, the same year he won the other Indy 500.

The young driver who had not raced much this season due to sponsorship issues had been working to help test the new chassis that will be used in the Indy Series starting next season. Michael Andretti announced that the England born driver had signed before the race to replace Danica Patrick on

the Andretti team next season.

The race was cancelled following the accident with drivers doing an impromptu five-lap salute to their fellow driver. The scoring pylon that shows the drivers position went blank all but Wheldon’s number 77 at the top position.

Dan Wheldon was born in Emberton, England and moved to the United States in 1999. He worked through the minor race series before reaching the top Indy series in 2002. In his Indy career, he posted 16 wins while earning five pole positions and 50 top ten finishes.

Wheldon leaves behind a wife and two young sons.

Bearcats Surge Past Rams Eagles Blanked on the in Second Half Road at Tyrone to Take Win

By Les Barnhart

By Les Barnhart

HUNTINGDON – The Penns Valley Rams saw their chance to notch their second win end in the span of about six minutes last Friday night as they traveled to Huntingdon to battle the Bearcats. The Bearcats put two touchdowns on the board in opening five and a half minutes of the third quarter to pull away for a 34-13 win.

The Rams (1-6) and Bearcats (2-5) exchanged first quarter touchdowns with quarterback Sam Snyder’s 15-yard touchdown run tying the score at 7-7. Huntingdon would score the only points of the second quarter with a short touchdown run by Bearcat quarterback Alec Tressler to make the score 13-7.

Penns Valley coach Marty Tobias stated after the game that Huntingdon played a very physical game and allowed them to control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. The Bearcats rushed for 335 yards on Friday night. The Rams also lost the turnover battle and as is usually the case with turnovers, they proved costly for Tobias’ team. The first of the three turnovers came on their first drive after they had driven inside the Bearcats’ red zone, only to see the drive end on the fumble. Another drive was ended just before the end of the second quarter when Austin Auman put the ball on the grass after a host of Bearcats gang tackled him.

The Bearcats opened the second half with an opening drive the ended with another touchdown run to push the score to 19-7. After holding to the Rams to a three-and-out on the ensuing series, the Bearcats forced a punt and promptly returned it 45 yards to set up another short touchdown run to open up the game 26-7.

The Rams refused to give up and were looking to get back into the game with a nice drive but Snyder committed the third turnover of the game in the third quarter when he was sacked at midfield. This turnover served as the finale as Huntingdon’s Dakota Peters scooped up the losses ball and returned it 45 yards for what be all the scoring the Bearcats would need.

Penns Valley’s Cameron Tobias tallied the final score for the Rams in the fourth quarter with a 4-yard run to set the final score at 34-13. Snyder, the team’s other quarterback, ended the game with 158 yards passing while completing 12 of 22 passes.

The Rams return to Spring Mills this Friday night as they will play host to Bald Eagle Area. The Eagles were blanked 41-0 on the road at Tyrone so both teams should be hungry for a win when the teams meet at 7pm on Friday night.

TYRONE – Whether they will openly admit it or not, few teams look forward to traveling to Tyrone to take the perennial powerhouse Golden Eagles. Not only does Coach John Franco usually field a very good team, but the aura of playing in Gray Memorial Field in front of the rabid Tyrone fans is a daunting task as well. Add to that a field that only needed grazing cows to complete the whole pasture look and worse, feel.

The weather has clearly not been kind to the once grassy surface on the field that Tyrone calls home. The conditions on Friday were so treacherous that Coach Franco apologized to Eagles’ coach Jack Tobias and commented that he had never seen a field in worse condition in his “33 years of football”.

While the weather may have been an issue, the Golden Eagles (6-1) didn’t seem to mind as they took an early 7-0 lead as J.D. Dorminy scored his first of three touchdowns on the night with a short touchdown run. Tyrone added a second touchdown in the opening quarter when quarterback Stevie Franco connected with Nick Patton for a 47-yard score.

Another short run and a short pass from Franco accounted for two more touchdowns in the second quarter and allowed Tyrone to build a 28-0 halftime lead.

The Eagles, who were missing multiple starters due to injury including three from their offensive line, were simply unable to find their rhythm against a Golden Eagle team that hardly missed a beat all night. Coach Tobias refused to use the field conditions as reason for his team’s play as he pointed out that both teams had to play on the same field. He did point out that he offered with tongue-in-cheek to have the game moved to the turf at Alumni Stadium in Wingate.

Dorminy accounted for all the scoring in the second half as in the third quarter he added two defensive touchdowns.

On consecutive plays from scrimmage, Dorminy intercepted Bald Eagle Area’s Cole Long and returned both for touchdowns. The first went for 34 yards while the second was longer at 67 yards.

Bald Eagle Area (2-5) returns to Centre County but will still be on the road as they will travel to Spring Mills to tangle with the Penns Valley Rams. The Rams will return home after a loss at Huntingdon for what should prove to be an entertaining game between two teams that appear to be evenly matched.

In their first meeting with the Mifflin County Huskies, the Huskies rushed for 324 yards en route to a 56-11 victory at Rogers Stadium. In their second contest of the season, thanks in part to the merger of Indian Valley and Lewistown, the Huskies dominated the Red Raiders from start to finish at Mitchell field, defeating Bellefonte 42-0. For the game the Huskies rolled up 412 yards on the ground, 173 coming by way of Harry Lowber, who scored on runs of 6, 78, 20 and 40; all in the first half.

Bellefonte returned the opening kickoff to midfield and appeared to be in prime position to make an early strike. However, on their first play from scrimmage, Malik Breon hauled in a Jordan Fye pass on the Huskie sideline, but fumbled after being hit, giving Mifflin County the ball.

Three plays later, Shane Whalen found the end zone from 38 yards out, giving the Huskies the early 7-0 lead.

Bellefonte challenged on its next possession, and faced a fourth and inches from midfield. However, before Fye could get out from under center, he was sacked for a loss, giving the Huskies the ball at midfield yet again. After a quick drive, Lowber would punch it in from 6 yards out, extending the early lead to 14 points.

After Bellefonte was forced to punt on its next possession, Alex Kaltenbach made a one-handed interception, giving the Red Raiders excellent field position. However, a drive would stall and Adam Johnson would pull his field goal attempt wide left. Lowber then ripped off a 78-yard touchdown, stunning the Bellefonte defense. Lowber would score two more times before the half ended, as the Huskies led 35-0. The Huskies would then score on their first possession of the third quarter, making the score 42-0.

For Bellefonte, Fye was 16-25 for 144 yards with one interception. Jesse Hocker led the Red Raiders in receiving, pulling in five balls for 45 yards. Bellefonte was held to 14 yards rushing on 20 attempts.

This week, Bellefonte travels to Mill Hall to take on the 1-6 Central Mountain Wildcats. The Wildcat offense runs through Von Walker, as he leads the team in rushing (878 yards), passing (608 yards) and touchdowns (11 rushing, 3 passing). Stopping Walker is easier said than done. For a Red Raider defense that gives up yards in bunches, they will need to dig down deep this Friday night.

Mounties Extend Winning Streak to Five

Letdown. That’s the word that many people were using for head coach Jeff Vroman and the Philipsburg-Osceola football team heading into their contest against Central on Friday night in Roaring Spring. How would the Mounties respond after getting one their biggest wins in recent memory, knocking off previously unbeaten Clearfield. Would P-O be looking ahead for their showdown against rival Tyrone? In terms of a letdown against the Dragons, there was none.

The Mounties exploded for twenty-one points in the fourth quarter to pick up a key road victory, defeating Central 32-20 to win their fifth consecutive game, and stay in first place in the District Six Double-A playoff standings.

Philipsburg-Osceola got on the board first midway through the first quarter, when fullback Cody Lee rumbled into the Central secondary and scored on a 20-yard touchdown run.

The Mounties set up for the extra point, but when holder Mike Marcinko saw a Central misplaced defensively, he took the snap and ran it in for a 2-point conversion for an 8-0 lead. Central tried to come right back, as they drove inside the Mountie 10-yard line, but Parker Watson stepped in front of a Dragon pass at the goal line, coming down with a key interception to end the threat. That would be the first of three interceptions on the night for the Mounties, as sophomores Nick Gray and Curtis Matsko also picked off passes.

P-O extended their lead to 11-0, as kicker Alex Boumerhi made a 25-yard field goal early in the second quarter, which proved to be the final points before the team went to the locker room. Early in the third quarter, Central’s defense made a big play, forcing a Mountie turnover, and converted it into a Dragon touchdown with 3:41 to go in the period to cut the score to 11-6, with the two-point conversion falling short. But the Mounties, like they have done for most of the year when feeling adversity, went on a scoring drive on the ensuing kick-off, with Michael John finishing off a 72-yard drive on a 36-yard touchdown run just nine seconds into the fourth quarter. The key play of the drive came on a 3rd-and-17, when Aaron McKnight took a handoff on a counter, and went 17 yards from the Mounties 21-yard line to pick up a big first down. Philipsburg-Osceola would get two more touchdowns in the quarter, with Lee scoring on a 16-yard run, and McKnight going in from two yards out.

The Mounties improve to 6-1 on the season, and will have one of their biggest home games in years when they host Tyrone at Memorial Stadium.

Little Lions Need OT to Take Down Falcons

By Gazette Sports Department

Stop if you’ve heard this before; Jack Haffner led the Little Lions in rushing yards in a State High victory. For the fifth straight game, Haffner totted the rock for over 100 yards en route to a thrilling overtime victory over Lower Dauphin, 41-38. Haffner carried 31 times and scored three times for the second consecutive game on his way to rushing for 211 yards on the day. He also pulled in seven catches for 70 yards.

Needless to say, when he is on, the Little Lions are on. For the season, he has carried 120 times for 943 yards and an ungodly 13 scores.

At the end of the first quarter, the Little Lions found themselves knotted up with the Falcons of Lower Dauphin, 7-7. In the second quarter, the Little Lions erupted for 21 points and held the Falcons to seven as the teams went into the half with the Little Lions holding a 28-14 lead.

In the second half, the Falcons held the Little Lion offense in check, scored 24 points and forced the Little Lion kicker Josh Clothiaux to kick a 22-yard field goal as the fourth quarter ended to tie the game. That gave the fans free football, as the teams lined up to play in overtime. With the Falcons getting the ball first, Josh Palmer (170 yards rushing) fumbled at the 10-yard line with the Little Lions recovering to take possession. Clothiaux then kicked a 27 yarder to give the Little Lions the 41-38 victory.

This week, the Little Lions will host Chambersburg, who own a 5-2 record. Chambersburg owns a 2-2 Mid-Penn Commonwealth record, and currently sit one game behind State College in the league standings.

Steelers Run by Jags

Steelers Head to the Desert Eagles Righting the Ship, Take Down ‘Skins

By Matt Masullo

It was a tale of two halves for the Pittsburgh Steelers in their 17-13 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. In the first half, the Steelers raced out to a 17-3 lead behind the inspired running of running back Rashard Mendnehall. Mendenhall ripped off a 68-yard run in the second quarter and finished the day with 146 yards on 23 carries, both season highs.

He also scored from eight yards out to give the Steelers an earlier 7-0 lead in the first quarter. The Steelers were clicking in all facets of the game in the first 30 minutes of the game.

The final 30 minutes were a different story.

In the second half, the Steelers totaled 70 yards of offense, and were held scoreless, as the Jaguars made the game interesting behind the play of Maurice Jones-Drew and rookie quarterback Blaine Gabbert. A roughing the punter penalty on the Steelers gave the Jags new life on their first drive of the second half. That allowed for Gabbert to find Jason Hill from 18 yards out to make the score 17-10.

In the fourth quarter, with their defense tightening up, the black and gold would lose All-Pro safety Troy Polamalu with “concussion-like symptoms”. How long he will miss is yet to be determined. The Steelers defense held enough times to keep the Jags from completing the unthinkable comeback, as a last second Hail Mary throw to the end zone would be knocked down, giving the Steelers the victory.

Mike Wallace nabbed two balls for 76 yards and a score in the victory, as he continues to be a receiver that defenses need to reckon with.

This week, the Steelers head to Arizona to take on their Super Bowl XLIII opponents with coverage beginning on Fox at 4:05 PM.

So much for that aging defense. The Steelers leads the league in yards allowed per game (270.5) and yards allowed against the pass (157.7). Somewhere in Los Angeles, Warren Sapp is biting his tongue. Sapp came out after the Steelers got whacked by the Ravens and proclaimed that the Steelers were on their way into the grave. The Steelers have responded tremendously in the past two weeks, and will face a Cardinal team this week that has seen its share of offensive struggles this season.

The Cardinals acquired Kevin Kolb from the Eagles in a trade this past offseason, and that deal was supposed to sure up the quarterback position that saw a musical chair at the quarterback position last season. Kolb was solid early on, but has played on par with the likes of Rex Grossman and Donovan McNabb as of late. The Cardinals still have All-World wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald who is a threat to go to the house each and every time he touches the ball. Giving Kolb enough time to find Fitz with the likes of LaMarr Woodley and Brett Keisel applying pressure will be difficult, as the black and gold have found their pass rush in recent weeks.

The Cards are fresh off a bye week to get rested, the Steelers are fresh off of their first big rushing performance of the season. Traveling to PST is never an easy thing to do, but the Steelers are a veteran bunch who have been around the block a few times. The time change shouldn’t affect anything, other than the time off kickoff.

Coverage begins at 4:05 PM EST on Fox this Sunday.

“Did you know…?” …the practice of identifying baseball players by number was started by the New York Yankees in 1929.

By Matt Masullo

The Philadelphia Eagles ended their four game losing streak Sunday, taking down the then first place Washington Redskins, 20-13. The Eagles picked off Rex Grossman four times Sunday and raced out to a 20-0 second quarter lead, prompting the Redskins to give John Beck the football in an attempt to comeback against the much maligned Eagles defense. The Eagles did just enough defensively to hold off a late comeback attempt and get back in the win column.

LeSean McCoy ran for 126 yards and a touchdown, giving him at least one touchdown rushing or receiving in each game this season to pace the Eagles. The game was dominated in the first half by the Eagles on both sides of the ball.

Michael Vick found tight end Brent Celek from seven yards out in the first quarter to give the Eagles an early lead. In the second quarter, the Eagles got a one-yard McCoy touchdown run, and two Alex Henery field goals to extend their lead.

From there, the Redskins did all of the scoring, with Graham Gano kicking a 50-yard field goal before halftime, and a 26 yarder in the third quarter. When Beck scampered in from two yards out in the fourth quarter, Eagles fans across the country gasped for air as they saw their defense crumpling yet again. Their defense held however, giving all of Philadelphia something to cheer about.

The Eagles have a bye this week, and will host the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football on October 30th on NBC.

War at the War Memorial

A few weeks ago at the Cambria County War Memorial proved to live up to its name as four of the fighters from the Dignan Brumbaugh gym went to war in the octagon. It was a good night for the Dignan Brumnaugh team winning two of their four fights, and one bad 135 pounder by the name of Shawn McManon making his debut.

The first fight from the Dignan Brumbaugh gym was between Leon Paciorek and Shawn McManon (Dignan/Brumbaugh Team). Shawn made his debut in the octagon under 135 pounds and looked great and eager to fight. Shawn came out strong and by the second round he was clearly in control.

At the end of the second round Shawn was having no problem taking Paciorek to the mat at will, and by the end of the round had put Paciorek into an arm bar but failed to finish before the horn sounded. The fight then went into the third round and Shawn did an excellent job of continuing to control the fight by taking down Paciorek when he pleased, and remained on top for the majority of the fight.

The fight would end and come to a judge’s decision where Shawn won all three of the judges’ votes 30-27 and walked away with a loud debut victory.

I’ve gotten the privilege to train with Shawn the last few weeks before his fight and I enjoy rolling with the kid. He is a solid 135 pounds and when he is on top of you he feels like 235 pounds. He is always looking for the submission and loves to bring the noise when its go time. He trains hard with a humble attitude and will continue to go far. There is no easing into submissions with this kid; if he sees a way to make you tap it’s coming quick and hard. If you aren’t ready for it, whatever he goes for is going to get broke…

The second fight from the Dignan Brumbaugh gym was Arthur Campbell and Tyler Updike (Dignan/Brumbaugh Team). Tyler came well prepared and determined for this fight and looked fantastic entering the ring. The first round was all Tyler as he took Arthur wherever he wanted whenever he wanted. Tyler took Arthur to the mat with authority numerous times and it was clear Arthur had no idea what he had got himself into. By the end of the first round it was clear the fight wouldn’t go the distance and the Dignan/Brumbaugh gym in the bleachers knew it was going to end, it was just a matter of time and how. As the bell sounded for the second round Tyler came out looking like the fight had just started, and didn’t look tired at all. After a few seconds passed in the second round Tyler got Arthur into a standing guitine and ended the fight with authority.

In the weeks leading up to the fight I also got the privilege to practice with Tyler and he’s one of the most competitive people I’ve met. He hates to lose and always works to better himself to have an edge on the competition. Tyler is built like a tank and is just about as strong as one too. He conditions very well by using innovative and different techniques while training and his endurance is one of the best at our gym. With his wrestling background and competitive attitude Tyler also has the potential to go far under the wings of the Dignan Brumbaugh camp.

The third fight from the Dignan Brumbaugh gym was between William Miller and Brad Mountain (Dignagn/ Brumbaugh Team). Leading up to the

fight Brad cut a lot of weight to see what kind of damage he could do in a different weight class. In the first round Brad took William to the mat with a few take downs but got hit hard in the process. Brad took a few hard shots to the head and managed to escape a choke put on by Miller and made it to the second round. In the second round Brad was less in control as Miller took Mountain to the mat and landed some bombs.

The fight went the distance and made it to the third round where Brad took Miller to the mat two times in the round and also got taken down himself.

The weight cut proved to be too much for Mountain and by the end of the fight he looked gassed. The judges scored the bout 29-28, 28-29, 29-28 in favor of William Miller.

Leading up to the fight Brad was working every day to make the weight he wanted to fight at. If he continues to get comfortable in a lower weight category I think he will be a force to be reckoned with. Brad can stand and throw with anybody and it was cool to see he could catch bombs as well as he can throw them. His chin is just as hard as his fists and it will be interesting to see what he takes from this fight into the next.

The last fight of the evening as well as the last fight from the Dignan Brumbaugh gym was between two professional fighters by the names of Darryl Madison and Travis Glass (Dignan/Brumbaugh Team). In my opinion this was the fight of the night and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time.

Round one was pretty even until Travis got Darryl into a rear naked choke and was only a few seconds away from ending the fight when the horn sounded ending the round. The Dignan Brumbaugh corner was screaming and yelling and begging for just a few more seconds but the seconds seemed to go faster. Round two proved to be just as exciting and Travis showed the judges how technical he could be trying to pull off a Peruvian Neck Tie. Travis held the choke for a few seconds but knew it wasn’t going to finish the fight and let go. Darryl seemed to stall the fight out by using a lot of time putting Travis up against the cage and taking him to the mat. The third round proved to be the most exciting of the night and most devastating. A few leg kicks by both fighters missed, and Travis had a good hard elbow to Madison’s head but proved not to be enough. They spent a lot of time against the side of the cage and Madison threw Travis to the mat and ended the fight by using a few hard elbows knocking Travis out 4 minutes and 32 seconds into the round. The Dignan Brumbaugh fans were silenced and the night ended in disappointment.

From the day I started training with the Dignan Brumbaugh camp Travis was one of my fighting mentors and friends. I love to watch him fight and he is one of the most humble people I’ve ever met. When it’s time to fight in the cage he remains the most poised fighter I’ve ever seen. It’s truly an honor to get to train with Travis and watch him fight on a regular basis.

The Dignan Brumbaugh camp would like to invite you to cheer them on November 12, 2010 at the Altoona Convention Center. I hope to see all of you cage side come fight night cheering our team on.

2011 Tussey Stupar’s Interceptions Highlight Win for Nittany Lions mOUnTaiNBACK 50-Mile Relay and Ultra-marathon

By Les Barnhart

October 23 at Tussey Mt., Benefits Cancer Patients

By Mike Casper

More than 140 men and women from around the nation will take on a 50-mile Ultramarathon known as the Tussey mOUnTaiNBACK on October 23 in central Pennsylvania’s Rothrock State Forest. Some of them will be embarking on their first adventure at this distance. We caught up with one of them, Emily Herring, during the final weeks leading up to the race. Emily is a Penn State student pursuing a double major in marketing and nutrition. She’s also a cancer survivor.

Tussey mOUnTaiNBACK 50: When did you first start running, and what was it that motivated you?

Emily Herring: I have always been active, but I first started getting into running in high school. It was more of a hobby to stay fit, and I never increased my mileage more than three miles at a time. That habit carried into college, and 2008, my sophomore year was when I really started running for a sport.

TM50: Most people would never know you’ve had cancer.

Can you describe how it was detected, the treatment you went through, and the part running has played in your life since?

EH: Right after I got into a more serious habit of running, I was diagnosed with cancer. Luckily I did start to run because that’s how it was detected. When I started running, it was in the evenings of August and September, when the nights are getting cooler. Any runner knows that your lungs take a few days to become adjusted to the temperature change, so when my lungs started to hurt that was my first thought.

On September 18, 2008, I woke up swollen; my neck, back, and face had expanded greatly. I was diagnosed with Mediastinal Large B-Cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. I began to receive chemotherapy every other Wednesday…then I began to receive radiation every weekday. It was extremely hard to get back into it [running]. In March 2009 I ran my first 5K. My friend, joking, asked if I wanted to run a marathon, and being my crazy self I said yes. In October 2009 I ran the Steamtown Marathon in Scranton, Pa. It was such an amazing experience; I became addicted and have been running them ever since.

TM50: What possesses you to take on the Tussey mOUnTaiNBACK’s ultramarathon?

EH: I have run five marathons…but like any runner, I want to do more. In March 2011 I ran my first ultramarathon, a 50K in Pittsburgh. That’s when I decided to take on the Tussey mOUnTainBACK. I know I am capable of running a marathon; the ultra will be challenging.

TM50: Have you experienced a lot of support from friends and other runners?

EH: When I joined the Nittany Valley Running Club, I gained so much support from local runners. Even though most of my friends and family don’t run, they still support my decision and will be at the race. My parents are also extremely supportive.

The Tussey mOUnTaiNBACK 50-Mile Relay and Ultramarathon is Sunday, October 23, with start and finish at Tussey Mountain Ski & Family Fun Center. The ultramarathon begins at 7 a.m. Proceeds support the Bob Perks Fund, providing financial assistance to qualified individuals and families faced with a cancer diagnosis. For more information, visit www.tusseymountainback.com. Donations to the Bob Perks Fund may be made through the event Web site.

B.E.A. Winter 2011-2012 Sports Physicals & Recertifications

Students needing a physical for basketball, wrestling, cheerleading, or indoor track & field, should report to the cafeteria on Thursday, November 3, 2011 at 3:15 pm. Physicals will be on a first come, first serve basis.

Athletes that played a Fall sport need to complete a recertification packet and turn it in to Mr. Dyke by November 13th.

Winter parent & athlete meeting will be held on Monday, November 7, 2011 in the high school cafeteria at 7:00 pm. All parents are urged to attend to get important information from the head coaches.

Physical & Re-cert Packets are available outside the Attendance Office.

The late Al Davis, owner of the Oakland Raiders, used to say “Just win baby”. He didn’t care how it came to be as long as when the game ended, his team was victorious. Pretty simple, eh? Well, the 2011 Nittany Lions may agree with him.

On Saturday afternoon, they pushed their record to 6-1 while improving to 3-0 in conference play with a less than perfect 23-18 win over the visiting Purdue Boilermakers.

While the win wasn’t flashy, in fact at times it was a bit pedestrian, it wasn’t without drama and as has been the case for most of the season it saw the Lions offense struggle to put teams away. The Boilermakers (3-3, 1-1 Big Ten) had a chance to win the game at the end. They got the ball back and only needed to march 98 yards for the touchdown against a Penn State defense that uncharacteristically was at times gouged for yards. The drive would end with Nate Stupar’s second interception that preserved the win for Penn State.

Penn State’s defense allowed their third touchdown in a little over four games (18 quarters) in the third quarter. That score allowed the Boilermakers to pull within 20-12 with just over four minutes to play in the third quarter.

The Nittany Lions’ oft-beleaguered offensive line again delivered another 100-yard rushing game for Silas Redd, the third straight for the talented sophomore running back. He finished with 131 yards on 28 carries and found the endzone in the third quarter on a 9-yard run. Overall the offense again struggled to deliver a knockout blow to an opponent that was allowed to hang around only to make it a close game at the end.

The quarterback rotation again had mixed results with Matt McGloin throwing the ball much more than Rob Bolden. McGloin completed 8 of 17 passes for 145 yards with a fluky interception that would set up a Purdue touchdown in the fourth quarter. Bolden went 2 of 6 for 40 yards passing.

Not having Derek Moye (out with broken foot) may have had an impact on the passing game but not as much as the high winds swirling around Beaver Stadium. Several of the throws sailed while others were short-hopped to the intended receivers. Justin Brown led the receiving corps with four grabs for 86 yards including a highlight reel one-handed catch that electrified the fans.

State College’s Nate Stupar certainly had a hand in the win on Saturday. His two interceptions (his first of the season)

first set up a 29-yard field goal before halftime to give Penn State a 10-6 halftime lead. His second would come on an attempted fourth down conversion that would end the Boilermakers bid at a final scoring drive. As a unit, Stupar and the Lions allowed 224 yards, at times in bunches, in the first half.

In the second half, they played much better while allowing just 120 yards. Nick Sukay attributed a lack of intensity to their play throughout the game.

Sukay, who had other of the team’s three interceptions, made a huge play on special teams in the fourth quarter. On the punt that would give Purdue the ball back for their final drive, Sukay hustled down the field and left his feet to keep the ball from getting into the endzone. His teammates would down the ball at the 2 and leave the Boilermakers’ quarterback taking snaps in his own endzone.

The Nittany Lions haven’t played the perfect game this season and frankly, they have done just fine this far. Sure, it’s frustrating but they are winning ballgames and at the end of the day, isn’t that what is important? In the very competitive Big Ten, the Nittany Lions can ill-afford to look past anyone including a possible trap game this weekend on the road at Northwestern where they play the part of Homecoming date to the Wildcats.

The Wildcats fell to 2-4 with their 41-31 loss to Iowa last weekend but they may not be as bad a team as some would lead you to believe. Northwestern is led offensively by MVP quarterback Dan Persa. He has a decent back behind him in Mike Trumpy and his has an experienced set of receivers. His offensive line isn’t bad either. Defensively, they give up points so this could prove a nice elixir for a Nittany Lion offense that at times acts like they are allergic to the endzone. Northwestern built a 21-0 lead last year at Beaver Stadium before watching the Nittany Lions storm back with 35 unanswered points to give Coach Paterno win #400.

Following the game against Northwestern, the Nittany Lions will run the gauntlet to the end of a season that hopefully has them playing in Indianapolis in the inaugural Big Ten Championship Game on December 3rd.

This Saturday’s game kicks off at 7pm from Ryan Field Stadium in Evanston, Illinois and will be televised by The Big Ten Network.

Bellefonte Kayak Slalom

By David Kurtz

The Bellefonte Kayak Slalom on Spring Creek was held at Sunnyside Paddling Park for the final slalom of the 2011 Penn Cup Series. Ethan Van Horn of Bellefonte tried to break a hundred for his kayak score, but was able to reach only 101 seconds for the best run of the day. Evy Van Horn, Ethan’s younger sibling, scooped the competition by winning both her classes, the cadet/junior women’s kayak class in 120 seconds and the women’s cadet/junior class in 151 seconds.

One of the most exciting competitions of the day was Tanner Helms tieing Alden Henrie in the cadet/cub kayak class. Helms of Bellefonte was challenged by the sequences of gates 1 to 3 but rose to the task in tieing Henrie for second place with the same score of 159 seconds. Henrie came up taking second place on the basis of the noncounting other run by scoring 163 to Helms’ 165. Kyler Phillips won that class in a fine 138-second run.

Phillips nearly beat his coach, Dave Kurtz of State College, who had a time of 135 seconds to take second place in the master’s kayak class. Jon Nelson of State College was first in 119 seconds, the second fastest time of the day.

Nelson also raced in the expert plastic kayak class, winning that class in 136 seconds.

Sarah Mosier of State College fared well in her competition against friend Evy Van Horn. She was the silver medalist in the cadet/junior kayak class in 131 seconds while taking third in the cadet/junior singles canoe class in 164 seconds. Sarah Douglas of Allentown, took second in the women’s canoe class in 160 seconds and third in the kayak class in 133 seconds.

The Mach One Team of Sarah Mosier and Evy Van Horn was second in the doubles canoe class containing at least one female paddler in 184 seconds.

The doubles team of Phillips-Henrie scored well in taking second place in the open doubles canoes class in 206 seconds. They were only 10 seconds off the pace of the class winners, Jim and Jack Graham of Pittsburgh.

Paul Kremer teamed with his very young son, Salihcan, to take first place in the open doubles canoe class in 396 seconds. Kremer also took second in the master’s singles canoe class in 159 seconds. In other action Gordon Jenness of State College was second in the open

Sarah Mosier (L), winner of the women’s overall kayak class, and Evy Van Horn, last year’s winner. As a team, they placed second in the doubles canoe class. singles canoe class in 272 seconds.

Ethan Diefenbach was the silver medalist in the junior kayak class in 128 seconds. Ethan Van Horn also was third in the expert/junior singles canoe class in 129 seconds. Tanner Helms also was second in the plastic cadet kayak class in 248 seconds. Martin Melville was second in the plastic kayak class in 166 seconds. Michelle Van Horn was second in the master’s women’s kayak class in 170 second.

All the local youth finishers represented the Mach One Slalom team and most of the adult finishers represented the NSTC#9 team.

The Pennsylvania Cup series for 2011 was concluded with the Bellefonte Slalom. Local winners of the Cup Turkey Awards were all youth paddlers with the Mach One Slalom team.

From Gazette reader Rob Mellott in response to the death of Dan Wheldon:

I know you have covered national racing items, and you will probably report on the death of Indycar Driver Dan Weldon. I raced for years all over the North East and I would like the fans to understand something when trying to deal with the circumstances of this tragedy. When you race long enough, you see things happen like

what happened yesterday just 12 laps into the IZOD indycar race. I started racing when I was 10, and you always put that fear somewhere else, to never think about it. When you climb into your car, you are invincible. You must have that thought, or you shouldn’t be out on a race track. Cars have been made safer. Safety equipment is better,

but every once in a while, none of that can help. You don’t know why, but you go on, and even knowing the risks, you do it because it’s inside you and part of you. Dan was doing what he loved and would have kept doing it no matter the risks.
