CLARKS SUMMIT - A group of seventh- and eighth-graders at Abington Heights Middle School recently donated many hours of their time to benefit the lives of soldiers serving the United States.

Students at the school volunteered for “Operation Give Back” and put together holiday care packages and wrote letters several months ago for soldiers stationed overseas in Afghanistan.

The activity was organized by seventh-grade teacher John Fitzsimmons and sent by the Tobyhanna Army Depot to the soldiers.

“We asked students to bring in certain imperishable items and other things that the soldiers in Afghanistan could use,” Fitzsimmons said.

“The response was fantastic. We packed over 300 care packages for the soldiers.”

Several students, as well as Assistant Principal Eduardo Antonetti, received letters back from a soldier who was overwhelmed with the students’ and administration members’ generosity.

RANSOM TWP - Ransom Township supervisors approved a resolution for an irrevocable letter of credit for Falling Springs Estates, a proposed development in the township, at the supervisors meeting March 7. Chairman Joe Esposito was absent from the meeting.

Township Solicitor Bill Jones said, “We originally had a letter of credit, then we had a cash deposit, now were going back to an irrevocable letter of credit, which is the prerogative of the developer….”

The amount of the irrevocable letter of credit is $260,000. “It’s our intent tonight to release the $260,000, plus the accrued interest that’s on there to further authorize the execution of the third addendum,” Jones said.

The third addendum in the development agreement for Falling Springs Estates refers to the irrevocable letter of credit.

Edward Bush, a principal developer of the group, said it is a 50-acre spring-fed lot with two phases. “It’s a pristine area and we’re proud to be in Ransom Township.”

In other news, Supervisor and Road Master David Bird mentioned the condition of the roads March 7 after the snow received the night before.

Waverly resident named V. P. at WVIA The WVIA Board of Trustees has named Tom Curra executive vice president of the region’s PBS and NPR broadcast stations. In this role, Curra, of Waverly, is designated the stations’ number two executive at the request of WVIA President and CEO Bill Kelly.

Together Curra, Kelly and almost 40 professionals will further develop a public media enterprise that is increasingly entrepreneurial while remaining not-for-profit.

Tom Curra WVIA’s actions following last year’s $1 million cutback in state funding have garnered national attention, for not only surviving unprecedented fiscal setbacks but generating a surplus of revenues. Now with the possibility of reduced or eliminated federal funding, WVIA faces new threats. Elevating Curra to executive vice president is partly intended to allow Kelly to increase his efforts in national advocacy and a WVIA endowment.

Bard Chairman Dr. Harmar Brereton, speaking on behalf of the full WVIA Board, said “We could not be more pleased that Bill Kelly continues mentoring Tom Curra to eventually lead WVIA. We’re told that few non-profits master succession planning and at Bill Kelly’s persistent suggestions, we have assured the future of what many consider a treasure.”

Tom Curra came to WVIA in 2004 after many years in commercial television and as an award -winning independent filmmaker.

Kelly said, “Everyone here saw Tom as a game-changer from the beginning. We’re most proud of what he accomplished with a ‘blank canvas’ career opportunity, knowing literally nothing about PBS.”

Munley, Munley & Cartwright, P.C. ranked among best firms Munley, Munley & Cartwright, P.C.has won a place on a list of the nation’s best law firms, published jointly for the first time by Best Lawyers and U.S. News & World Report.

The other members of the planning committee are Leela Baikadi, Megha Baikadi, Sujata Nair –Mulloth, Sandy Longo, Anu Anand and Priti Shah.

The event is open to all ages and will include a traditional dance, traditional Indian food and drink, a photo exhibit “Colors of India,” henna tattoos, music and more.

Of the day, a colorful festival celebrated on the full moon day of Phalgun, Pancholy said, “It’s based on the Lunar Calendar. Our festivals are based on the Lunar Calendar.”

The event is celebrated more in Northern India than in Southern India, according to committee members.

The event was the brainchild of Abington Community Library Director Leah Ducato Rudolph, who said the idea came about because numerous library patrons share Indian and Pakistan backgrounds and wanted to plan an event that would give a glimpse into their culture. Holi is known as a colorful holiday, and color will be on display, according to Longo, who is the young adult librarian for the Abington Community Library. Leela Baikadi, Dalton, said the event traditionally starts with

people celebrating by throwing color on each other. One way to throw color is by having colored water in a water gun and squirting people as they pass.

Megha Baikadi said most people wear old clothes when they celebrate the holiday.

Another portion typically includes a bonfire the night before Holi, Pancholy said. “It basically symbolizes the victory of good over evil and the destruction of evil the night before and then the celebration of the fact that good is present the next day.”

Holi represents forgiveness, according to Leela Baikadi.

“The Holi is the time that they kind of forgive each other of arguments and fights. They talk to everybody.”

The event includes folk dance, according to Shah, who is assisting. Nair-Mullton, Clarks Summit, teachers an Indian Classical Dance class at Wilkes University, Wilkes-Barre, and at the Kala School of Dance, Clarks Summit. Her students will perform.

Shah said the dance will last five minutes and is an expression of happiness.

South Abington Twp. resident Anu Anand is looking forward to her 6-year-old son Aneesh Iddya conducting the prayer before the event.

The photo exhibit “Colors of India” will be on display at the library throughout March and into April. The exhibit was constructed by Leela Baikadi For more information on the event or to register, visit www.lclshome.org/abington.

“Hopefully this will be … annual ,” said Longo.

BY RALPH NARDONE Times Leader Correspondent

WILKES-BARRE - Sukanya (Sue) Roy,13, took first place for the third straight year at the 2011Times Leader/Scripps Northeast Pennsylvania Regional Spelling Bee held at the Woodlands Inn and Resort on Sunday.

She topped students from 23 local schools who all qualified to compete by winning spelling competitions in their respective schools since January.

Roy, a student in the Abington Heights School District, outlasted second-place finisher Ty Nichols,12, representing the Geneva School, and third-place finisher Justin Prenga from Good Shepherd Academy. She won when she tackled “apparatchik,” a word with Russian roots that defines a blindly loyal follower. Nichols was eliminated when he missed “philhellenism,” which means a love of Greek culture, and Prenga missed “baedeker,” a Germanrooted word for a guidebook to a nation.

Roy will make her third trip to Washington, D.C., courtesy of the Times Leader newspaper to compete in the national spell-

ing bee in June. Her last two trips there resulted in12th and 28th place finishes.

“This year I’ll try to go all the way,” said Roy, holding her firstplace trophy.

She attributed her knowledge of spelling to a lot of reading and understanding of the origin of words. Building a strong vocabulary helps as well, she said.

Organizer Alan K. Stout, Newspapers in Education manager for The Times Leader, said this year’s competition lasted significantly longer than previous

years, indicating “stiff competition among a high quality” of spellers. The last five contestants were competing into the 20th round, he added.

Jean Lynott, who served as the contest’s pronunciator, said the students need each word spoken with the correct pronunciation and clarity. The judges for the contest were Mark Guydish and Mary Therese Biebel from The Times Leader and Kristie Grier Ceruti from The Abington Journal.

Some Sirius bread

BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent

CLARKS SUMMIT - It was an ordinary day for Michael Bonczar, owner of Bet’a Bread Bakery and Deli located at 404 S. State St. in Clarks Summit.

Until the phone rang.

“It was in the afternoon on a Tuesday or Thursday, I saw on the call answering, Sirius Radio,” said Bonczar. “I thought, ‘This is going to be another telemarketer asking me to sign up for their services.’ So I picked it up and hung it up (the phone) and I thought for a few seconds, “Well, I better see what this guy has to offer.” So Bonczar picked up the phone.

The call was from a producer for Martha Stewart Radio, and in front of the producer was a copy of a story that he referenced that appeared in Dec. 29, 2010 in The Abington Journal.

In each tour, the students are recruited as “detectives.”

During their detective work, they engage in a number of exercises while learning. All of the activities are hands on, which Buch said was an important aspect of the program.

“Diet is often amplified and placed under a microscope, but we have to remember to balance out those choices with regular, yet fun physical activity,” said Buch.

“Schools have been limiting recess, which cuts into opportunities for physical activity. We do not want to send the wrong message to our children.”

Weis provides downloads at their website for teachers to use in their classes in preparation for the tour, as well as post-tour evaluations.

The children are taught healthy eating habits, with an emphasis on portion size.

Buch said that the program also caters to different lifestyles. Students are taught they if they don’t eat meat, they can find alternative sources of proteins such as nuts and beans.

Schools interested in the program should send an e-mail to mystertytours@weismarkets.com or call the Weis Mystery Tours Coordinator at 570.988.3025.

States Army wrote students and Antonetti, thanking them for the “wonderful goodies” the students donated and sent and the “kind letters” from the students.

“It’s wonderful to know that people like you remember us,” Specialist Stephens said in his letter to Antonetti. “I speak on behalf of all the service men and women here in Afghanistan in saying thank you and your school for sending warm words of encouragements. Thanks again for all your love and prayers.”

Antonetti said that the administration at Abington Heights Middle School does its best to get the students involved with community service projects.

After a Veteran’s Day presentation, students showed interest in participating in a project that would benefit the soldiers serving in Afghanistan.

Antonetti said he was thrilled when he and the students received a response.

“It was a wonderful way to show the students that what they did for the soldiers made a difference in their lives. It connected our kids with the soldiers serving over there,” he said.

Eighth graders Ian Halloran, Jake Peterson, Marissa Paulish, Erin Schumacher and Jessa Sablan were just a few of the students at the middle school instrumental in the project.

Seventh graders Noah Sirianni, Same Jubon, Paige Harris and Mia Paone also gave up lunches throughout the course of two months to prepare the letters and packages.

They helped assemble care packages, as well as proofread letters written by middle school students. They also addressed letters and packages to individual soldiers to make donations more personal.

Many students said they found the contents of the packages fascinating.

“We thought it was weird that they were getting crayons and coloring books, but then we found out it’s because they like to give them to the local children

to help show that they are there with good intentions,” Halloran said.

“I was surprised how much we could contribute,” Peterson added.

“It made me feel like we were really connecting with the soldiers,” Sablan said.

Schumacher said it was great to see how many people they were helping by putting together the care packages. Paulish said it really helped them feel as though they were connecting with soldiers.

All agreed that it was well worth all the effort they put into the project, . They hope to participate in similar community service projects in the future.

Sirianni said it felt good to participate in such a beneficial project.

“After actually reading the letter, I’m glad he knows that people are caring,” said Sirianni.

“It’s cool that he took the time to send us a letter.”

Fitzsimmons added that as a teacher he was proud and happy to see the students’ willingness to help people that they don’t know. Although there were some students who were vital to the project, he noted that much of the school participated .

“The students put so much work and sacrifice into this project, I’m glad they got a response and know that a difference was made,” Fitzsimmons said. “And they also benefit, because we received some photos of Afghanistan and things of that nature from the soldiers, which they can learn from and also helps them to relate better to where the soldiers are serving.”

Antonetti agreed that although the students were advised by Fitzsimmons and other Abington Heights Middle School administration, overall the project was a completely student-led effort.

“The kids were so focused and real,” Antonetti said. “It was a wonder to see them at work.

They were really working toward a cause that they had a passion for. It was just so positive that they received some feedback for all of their efforts,” said Fitzsimmons.

Purim with Italian flavor

BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent

Merriment and commemoration are two words that best describe the upcoming Purim holiday celebrated by members of the Jewish faith.

Locally, the Jewish Discovery Center, located at 749 Northern Blvd., Clarks Summit, will celebrate the holiday with a taste of Italy at the center’s upcoming 10th annual Purim Celebration. The Italianflavored Purim Festa will be held in the Commons at the Inn at Nichols Village, 1101 Northern Blvd., Clarks Summit March 20.

The festivities begin with cocktails at 5 p.m., followed by dinner at 5:30 p.m.

“It’s fun for the whole family,” said Rabbi Benny Rapoport, director of the Jewish Discovery Center.

According to Rabbi Rapoport, the meal is inspired “by a holiday that we (the Jewish people) have been celebrating for more than 2,000 years. We like to bring in a theme every year, and locally there’s a huge Italian community and it’s part of the backbone of America.

We’re going to have a healthy feast, featuring food from a country that is famous for its bounty…a lot of fresh vegetables and herbs and Italian dishes. It’s basically bringing two cultures together to celebrate the Flavor of Italy in the Jewish tradition. We’ll have parodies, skits and live music.”

The menu for the evening will include a tower of grilled veggies with pesto bread sticks and Italian bread rolls as the appetizers and a buffet dinner featuring mini stuffed peppers; semi-boneless Cornish hen with lemon-garlic-oregano and artichoke hearts; chicken marsala; pasta with eggplant, tomato sauce and fresh basil; a salad with red and yellow tomatoes, cucumber, red potatoes, red onions and olives; and spinach with roasted cauliflower, capers, olives, walnuts with a lemon-olive oil dressing. Kosher wine will also be served.

Rapoport said, “The greatest challenge is not mixing milk and meat. So we’ll have ground beef stuffed peppers, chicken marsala, canolis and nondairy…”

Although Purim does not

have the same observance requirements as Yom Kippur because it’s not a biblical holiday, Rabbi Rapoport said, “The joy of Purim is like no other day, with the traditions of drinking wine and the dressing up.”

Purim, which is considered to be the most joyous holiday on the Jewish calendar, is celebrated from sunset March 19 to nightfall March 20. The holiday commemorates the survival of the Jewish people at a time when Jewish people living in Persia were saved from extermination, as told in the biblical book of Esther.

Esther, a beautiful, young Jewish woman living in Persia, along with her cousin Mordecai, refused to bow to the evil Haman, so Haman plotted to destroy the Jewish people.

“They were attacked because

they refused to bow down to this person called Haman,” said Rabbi Rapoport.

“That caused him to say to the king, ‘Hey, listen, we’ve got to kill these people.’ The Jewish people were strong in their faith and they could have saved their lives by abandoning their faith and instead they risked their lives and gathered in public places to study Torah and pray to God. That was the absolute consummation of their commitment to God.” On Purim, children and many adults dress in costumes that portray characters such as Mordecai and Esther.

Space for the dinner is limited and by advance registration only. Cost is $25 for adults, $12 for children 11 years old and younger, $80 for a family or $100 be a sponsor.

For details, call 570.587.3300 or register online at www.JewishNEPA.com.

Angela was a resident of Glenburn and Clarks Summit for more than 40 years and Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, for five years. She was born in Rybnik, Poland, the daughter of the late Pawel and Stanislawa Stankowska Harazim.

She is a graduate of the French-Polish Ursuline Sister’s Academy for Girls in Rybnik and pursued her undergraduate degree followed by three years of medical school at the Johann Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany.

Lucky Centennial

At a recent meeting of the Clarks Summit Centennial Committee, members randomly selected 15 winning raffle tickets as part of a basket raffle held recently. According to Janine Port, “The raffle was held as a fundraiser for the birthday celebration to be held in August. We started at the January event at the firehouse and then had the raffle again at the recent Ice Festival weekend in February. We’re going to do another raffle..

I think we raised $150.”

The money will likely be used toward expenses, including musicians, supplies, food , said Port, who is planning to donate four baskets for the upcoming June fishing derby event and more in August for the centennial.

He ran a saw mill and also built a large garage where he stored trucks and a horse.

From there he would transport the props to Scranton.

Bob Vogelbacker said his father was also involved with real estate. “He was a very industrious person.”

John Vogelbacker also helped raise money for the construction of Our Lady of the Snows Church, 301 South State St., Clarks Summit. “He was an instrumental when that was built,” according to his son.

Bob and Kathryn Vogelbacker lived on Stone Avenue, Clarks Summit, until they left Clarks Summit in 1980.

Jones said the cost covers the time of the worker rather than the actual copies. “Somebody may want to see documents from six years ago, or 10 or 12.

Students perform L. Frank Baum classic March 19, 20

akeland Jr./Sr. High School students are off to see the wizard - the wonderful “Wizard of Oz,” that is. Students of the Lakeland Curtain Club will present their spring production of L. Frank Baum’s classic at their high school auditorium March19 and 20. They will perform the Royal Shakespeare Company’s version, which closely follows the script of the 1939 movie by MGM. Lakeland’s cast features seven seniors within a company of 30-plus students in seventh through12th grades.

“We had so many seventh graders who were interested in being in a show,” said Catherine Carter, artistic director. “We felt we should put on a show that could include the younger students.”

The Lakeland chose “The Wizard of Oz” because it gives the seniors a chance to showcase their talents one last time.

“We have a lot of seniors leaving us this year,” said Carter. “‘The Wizard of Oz’ is a good ensemble show that can showcase the talent of our upperclassmen.”

Jessica Zaleski, a senior, is Dorothy Gale, the girl with the slippers. Her own dog, a Chihuahua named Boq, will play Toto. Sophomore Dakota Lawler per-

Who plays Mom in the new movie "Mars Needs Moms"

Congrats to all of the cast and crew who were part of the Dietrich’s production of “Frankenstein.” We could not be more pleased with the outcome. Jennifer Jenkins and all the actors did a fantastic job and dedicated so much time and talent to the project. You could just feel their excitement about bringing Shelley’s masterpiece to the stage. You could also see how much effort and thought went into designing period costumes, a great set, perfect lighting and sound, and dramatic makeup for the Creature. It was truly a wonderful gift for the community.

We also would like to extend a thank you to all of those who came out to support our theater production.

Without an appreciative audience, none of this would have possible. We were especially thrilled to have students from Tunkhannock and Dallas high schools attend the show. Many of the students in attendance just recently finished reading Shelley’s novel, so it was interesting to witness their response to the play.

Our next theater endeavor, under the direction of Jennifer Jenkins, is to bring five children’s theater productions to our area that discuss a variety of issues that children encounter in their daily lives. Jennifer and the Dietrich Children’s Theatre will kick-off the series of shows in May with Peter and the Wolf. This project has been funded in part by the Pennsylvania Humanities Council. Stay tuned for more information about this exciting program.

Speaking of upcoming events, you do not want to miss the karate demo at the Dietrich March 19, at 11 a.m.

Kevin Robinson and some of his students from Robinson’s Martial Arts Studio will present traditional karate forms, weaponry and self-defense.

This high-energy presentation is appropriate for all ages and admission is free. Kevin will hold a question-and-answer session following the demo.

We hope to see you there.

Then in April, the Dietrich in collaboration with H.A.N.D.S. of Wyoming County will be celebrating the month of the young child as we bring back Tom Knight for a fun-filled puppet show.

Young children and their families are invited to join us April 7, at 1:30 p.m. for great music and skits with Tom Knight and his puppets. We will be singing and dancing along to songs about the environment, animals, food and See Movies , Page 13

LIBRARY NEWS

BY MARY ANN MCGRATH

The Abington Community Library’s annual spring creative writing contest for boys and girls features the theme “Seasons: Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall.” Entry forms and rules for eligibility are now available. The deadline for submitting entries is April 16. Children may enter at their grade level (i.e., grades 1 and 2; grades 3 and 4 and grades 5 and 6).

They are invited to submit an original story, poem or nonfiction work based on the theme. Length is optional and illustrations are also optional. Although they are strongly encouraged to be creative and come up with their own ideas, some ideas can concern a favorite season; how the seasons are different; seasonal sports; the science of changing seasons; colors associated with each season; and holidays and seasons. Nine prize winners will be selected by independent judges. Stop at the Children’s Desk for an entry form and further information.

Marywood University elementary education students will be coordinating a series of three Saturday Story Hours for children ages 3 through 7 years. The programs will be held from 11 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. on March 26, April 9 and 16. Registration is now taking place in the Children’s Room.

However, once a crime fighter and prosecutor, Hailey agrees to investigate the murders of waning celebrities, all stunning actresses, when she is asked to help solve the crimes by Lt. Ethan Kolker of the NYPD. “The KenKen Killings” by Parnell Hall. When a key witness in Cora Felton’s alimony hearing gets murdered, a KenKen puzzle is left at the scene of the crime. Is someone trying to tell Cora (“The Puzzle Lady”) something?

Before she can find out, she runs into more murders, more puzzles, and a murder weapon that seems to point to her ex-husband Melvin as the killer.

“Eye of the Red Tsar” by Sam Eastland. Once the most trusted secret agent of the Romanovs, Pekkala is living a harsh existence as Prisoner 4745-P, a decade after the executions of the Tsar Nicholas, the Tsarina and their family. Told to find their bodies, catch their killers, locate the royal child rumored to be alive, and give Stalin the international coup he craves, he will be given his freedom. Pursuing clues that have eluded everyone, Pekkala uncovers a secret so shocking that it will shake to its core the land he loves.

books. Admission is free.

The following day the Dietrich’s Spring Film Festival will begin with its opening night gala. This year it will be quite a bash as we are also celebrating the 10th anniversary of the reopening of the Dietrich as a movie theater and cultural center. Those who attend will be able to enjoy just the best hors d’oeuvres by Epicurean Delight, Simply Savory BBQ, Seasons Restaurant and Twigs Restaurant. Nimble Hill Vineyard and Winery will provide wine and, of course, Epicurean Delight will wow us with their sumptuous spread of desserts. For opening night films, Hildy and Jeffery, our film buyer, really wanted to bring in something special so we will be seeing “Potiche (Trophy Wife)” directly from New York City just two weeks after its U.S. premiere, and the indie flick “The Company Men” featuring Ben Af-

In addition to being able to see “Potiche” and “The Company Men” during the festival, Hildy and Jeffery booked in 15 additional foreign, independent and art films for our viewing pleasure. Seventeen films during a two-week festival is a new record for us. These films include “Another Year,” “Barney’s Version,” “Biutiful,” “Blue Valentine,” “Casino Jack,” “Even the Rain,” “The Illusionist,” “Kings of Pastry,” “The Legend of Pale Male,” “Of Gods and Men,” “Oscar Nominated Shorts 2011: Animated,” “Rabbit Hole,” “A Somewhat Gentle Man,” “Vision: From the Life of Hildegard von Bingen” and “The Way Back.”

Sounds like a great lineup!

As you can see, the Dietrich is so much more than the movies!

The Jason Miller Playwrights’ Project will stage a free reading of the playwright’s’ “Champagne Pool” March 23, at 7 p.m. at the Olde Brick Theatre.

Published as part of a collection of “Five Plays” in 1961, the comedy takes a look at the process a playwright goes through in order to have his or her work staged.

Actors participating in the project include Sam Falbo, Steve Pauley, Carla Reck, Sarah Stachura Regan and others. Wine and

appetizers will be available, seating is limited and doors will open at 6:45 p.m.

Although there is no charge for admission, donations to the Jason Miller Playwrights’ Project are appreciated.

Also scheduled this season is a reading of Alicia Grega’s new play, “Avenging Arachne: A Nemesister Fable,” May 18.

The Olde Brick Theatre is located at 126 W. Market St., Providence Square.

M.D. offers tips to keep athletes safe

BY DON MCGLYNN dmcglynn@theabingtonjournal.com

Tragedy struck at Fennville High School in West Michigan March 3, when, while celebrating after making the game-winning basket in overtime to cap off a perfect regular season, basketball player Wes Leonard collapsed on the court.

Leonard Dr. Gopi was rushed Dandamudi to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

According to an article in the Associated Press, an autopsy by the Ottawa County medical examiner showed Leonard died of cardiac arrest due to an enlarged heart.

“Sudden death is rare in athletes,” said Dr. Gopi Dandamudi, M.D., a cardiac electrophysiologist at Richard and Marion Pearsall Heart Hospital in the Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center.

But it does happen, and heart problems can go unnoticed, even when athletes are properly screened and approved to play.

The Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA) requires that all students undergo a physical prior to trying out for a competitive sports team.

The problem is that the type of physicals these athletes experience might not pick up a medical condition like Leonard’s.

“Some of these (diseases) are very difficult to diagnose unless they do more aggressive and thorough screening,” said Dandamudi.

Some countries have adopted a more aggressive screening process. Dandamudi said that Italy has been screening every child who participates in competitive sports with a 12lead ECG since 1982.

A.H. challenges Allentown Central Catholic at districts

By Don McGlynn dmcglynn@theabingtonjournal.com

ALLENTOWN- A scoring burst from District XI Allentown Central Catholic’s Muhammad Ali Abdur Rahkman pushed the Vikings to a 57-52 overtime victory over District II Abington Heights High School in the PIAA Class AAA boys basketball tournament March 11 at William Allen High School.

Rahkman, who was scoreless in the second and third quarters after dropping seven points in the first, made eight points in the fourth quarter to help force an overtime.

“I’m really pleased with the kids,” said head coach Ken Bianchi of the Comets’ play.

“I thought we had it in regulation. We were one rebound away, we just couldn’t get it. They got

four big offensive rebounds, off foul shots, and you can’t give that up and win.”

The Comets led 35-31 going into the fourth quarter, but the Vikings went on a 6-0 run to cut the deficit.

Trailing 42-41 in the closing seconds of the game, Rahkman was sent to the foul line. Making his first shot and missing his second, Allentown Central Catholic’s Jack Sandherr grabbed the rebound and kicked it out to Rahkman who hit a 3-pointer, giving the Vikings a 45-42 lead with 8.5 seconds left on the clock.

With time winding down, the Comets in-bounded the ball to freshmen guard JC Show, who hit

a three at the buzzer to send the game into overtime.

Show and senior guard Justin Klingman proved deadly from outside on Friday night. Show finished with nine points from behind the arc, Klingman with 12.

“I thought our guards shot well.

We set some nice screens for them,” said Bianchi.

A pair of 3-pointers from Klingman and Show gave the Comets a 51-49 lead in the opening of overtime. Rahkman went on to score another eight points for Allentown in overtime. He led the team in scoring with 22 points, but it was Shane McNeely who was the difSee Comets, Page 2

Lions’ Laytos earns medal at state tournament

BY ROB TOMKAVAGE Abington Journal Correspondent

HERSHEY - Lackawanna Trail junior Eric Laytos, the defending state champion at 215 pounds, did not enjoy the same success at the PIAA Wrestling Championships this year, but was able to leave Hershey with a seventh place medal.

After pinning Bethlehem Catholic’s Josh Alpha in 4:28 in his preliminary match, Laytos was eliminated from title contention in the quarterfinals when Joel Sutter of Northern Bedford pinned him in 1:06.

“He just didn’t wrestle his match,” Lackawanna Trail coach Jeff Stauffer said. “We talked after the match, and he admitted that he didn’t go all out and after it like he has all year.”

The junior then lost a 9-3 decision to Fort LeBoeuf’s Brandon Bradney, setting up a seventh place match

Abington Heights heavyweight Morgan Craig started the tournament on a positive note with a 3-1 decision over Westmont’s Josh Duplin, but then lost two straight difficult matches to drop out of medal contention.

“He preformed very well,” Abington Heights coach Chris Calder said.

“He had a good performance against the Duplin kid. We knew when the draw came out that it would be tough, but we had the confidence that there wasn’t anyone in the bracket he couldn’t beat.”

Craig lost his quarterfinal match, 5-1, to CanonMcMillan’s Cody Klempay, who entered the tournament undefeated.

SCRANTON – Taylor Bryant needed only eight seconds to put six points on the scoreboard at Marywood University Friday night, March 11.

The Upper Dublin junior guard set up in the left corner as the clock ticked down in the first quarter and drained a 3-pointer with two seconds left.

Bryant then took the in-bounds pass to open the second quarter, dribbled up to the top of the key and hit another 3-pointer just six seconds in.

Quick strikes to open and end quarters helped give the Lady Cardinals a lead that they held for all but 20 seconds on the way to a 47-36 victory that eliminated Abington Heights from the state Class AAAA girls’ basketball tournament.

“Those shots at the buzzer killed us,” said Abington Heights coach Vince Bucciarelli. “The one at the end of the first quarter, we had a hand in her face and she still drained it.”

Bryant’s two quick 3-pointers changed a 14-12 game into a 20-12 game in a hurry. She just beat the thirdquarter buzzer with an 18-footer that made sure the entire fourth quarter was played with at least a two-possession margin by giving Upper Dublin a 37-32 lead.

LADY COMETS

WRESTLING

Curtena Goff and Lauren Rothfeld all played a role in the well-timed baskets that kept the Lady Comets trying to fight back from a deficit.

Hallowell hit a 3-pointer just 18 seconds into the game to open the scoring.

After Lauren Hoyt’s 3pointer and Tiffany O’Donnell’s layup off a Nikki Williams -feed trimmed the deficit from nine to four, McAneney’s 18-footer for the last basket of the second quarter gave Upper Dublin a 28-22 halftime lead.

Goff’s penetration set up Bryant’s baskets to end the first and third quarters. She then set up inside to score the first three points of the fourth quarter for a 40-32 lead.

match he would see all tournament, but he didn’t open up his game enough offensively, and that cost him the match.”

The senior lost in a tiebreaking match against Corry Area High School’s Alec Gluvna.

“It was a tough match,” Calder said. “The kid (Gluvna) was tough, but Morgan was a shoestring away from winning the point, and placing in the medal round.”

Calder raved about Craig’s development during his time at Abington Heights, and is certain that he will prosper at the next level playing football at Villanova.

“He’s grown tremendously over the past three years,” Calder said. “His leadership abilities continue to grow. I think he will be a good football player at Villanova, and a real asset to their program.

I look forward to watching him progress into a standout athlete for the Wildcats.”

James Freuhan, the other Comets grappler to advance to states, also struggled against top competition. He was pinned in his first match by freshman Chance Marsteller of Kennard-Dale, the eventual state champion at 152, in 2:43. The senior then lost a 5-1 decision to Pottsgrove’s Thomas Demetrio, a former state medalist, in the first round of consolations.

“James had a tough draw,” Calder said. “We knew the kid (Marsteller) was good, and was definitely gonna be a kid to be reckoned with.

“He wrestled his tail off down there, as did Morgan.

They left it all on the mat, and that’s all you can ask for.”

Calder also think Fruehan has great potential as he heads to Virginia Military Institute in the fall.

“His future is very bright,” he said. “The football coaches are very excited to have him, and their wrestling coach was in Hershey over the weekend, and they talked a little bit.

“They are a close-knit family, and I think that will benefit him. I think he will develop into a leader there, just as he was at Abington Heights.”

The Lady Comets did not score again.

After chasing the Lady Cardinals all night, Bucciarelli said the Lady Comets looked tired late.

“We’re not super big or super fast, but we’re in the places where we need to be,” Upper Dublin coach Vince Catanzaro said of his team’s defensive effort.

Hashem finished 3-for-3 from the floor and 2-for-2 from the line for eight points to go along with a game-high 12 rebounds.

O’Donnell had four assists while Hoyt had three assists and three steals.

WAVERLY TWP. - Community member Mari Byron attended the Feb. 28 Waverly Township Board of Supervisors meeting to inquire about the retirement of the Chief of Police Dan Mooney.

Byron asked about the selection process for a new police chief. She questioned whether the public will be involved. Supervisor Tom Durbin explained that they will follow the proper procedure in advertising for the position and that the public will not be involved because it is a personnel matter. Byron asked if anyone from the current police force is able to apply and was informed that they will follow the same procedure as any applicant.

The public will be invited to a farewell reception for Chief Mooney on his last day of service, March 31, to

show appreciation for his years of service.

In new business, the NEPA Alliance, a co-op group based in Pittston, has invited Waverly Township to begin a computer program with them for co-op purchasing. A coop purchasing agreement allows the township to buy equipment, such as dump trucks and snow plows, at reduced prices.

Supervisors are finalizing the paperwork for the pavilion, including title and ownership, and preparing to submit it to Lackawanna County for approval.

In regard to the E911 addressing, a conference call occurred between Atty. Andrew Hailstone and sources in Harrisburg. It was announced that the address change will be made in two to three weeks and letters will be sent out to the community.

Public Works director Thomas James expressed his concern for what he described as a drainage problem occurring parallel from Lynwood Drive. PennDOT originally created a ditch to drain water coming from Clinton Street, but now it is coming through yards and collecting against foundations, said James. The same problems are occurring on Upland, Longview and Violet terraces. The homeowners there are responsible for their property, which means the township cannot fix the problem without right of way or an easement. Homeowners will be sent a letter explaining the situation.

A motion was passed that approved the township’s former police car be donated to Lackawanna College in the case that the Waverly Community House has no need for it.
