Becoming ‘that Dad’ on Facebook

For months, I had seen posts from old high school and college friends to help make their child “the next Gerber baby” or “the cutest baby at someparentswebsite.com” among other things. To be honest, I voted once or twice on the multitude of posts filling my Facebook news feed for days and weeks on end. It wasn’t until this week that I understood the craze and bought completely into the trend. My wife got notification Monday that a photo from our July vacation to Seaside Heights, N.J., was in the running in the Parents.com photo contest for best family vacation photo.

BEHIND THE BYLINES

CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES The shot of my son, John, peering through the wire cage of a Ferris wheel overlooking the boardwalk and the edge of the Atlantic, his hair blowing in the ocean breeze with the shadows of the amusement ride falling on his face, was one of our personal favorites. It was a true moment of wonder captured through the lens, but we didn’t think much more of it from there. Having the photo in the running for a $250 weekly prize and a possible grand prize of a sevenday, six-night trip to Jamaica,

however, sent our keyboards and computer mice into a frenzy. My wife and I posted links, from both home and work computers, practically pleading for daily votes and the chance to win fabulous prizes. It wasn’t until Wednesday that I really understood what all of my friends’ posts were about. As much as it would be nice to win something, it’s great to see our kids recognized in some way. I’ve written often about Taryn’s great accomplishments in reading and writing in the oral reading and Reflections contests, respectively, but there had been no online contest to promote those things. This was not just a chance to win something for having an adorable kid (or two). It was a chance to brag about them a bit,

too. My kids are the reason I work so hard, and wrestling, painting, or playing with them is the way I escape the rigmarole of municipal meetings, indecent assault cases that can turn stomachs, and escaped prisoners. Taryn and John help me unwind, and for that I will always be grateful. As other people clicked “vote” and “share” on John’s photo this week, it felt good to see one of my kids being celebrated for something as simple as a cute photo. I’d do it every day if I could, and I’ll be sure to click on the next voting link to support another proud parent lucky enough to be in an online contest. Both the parents and children, I’ve learned, deserve it.

‘Occupy’ message echoed in Scranton

By CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@golackawanna.com

ARTS JASON RIEDMILLER PHOTO / FOR GO LACKAWANNA

Megan Davidovich of Hazelton and Ashley Cilento of Greentown make signs for the Occupy Scranton rally on Saturday.

“The separation of wealth throughout the years has continued to get more and more unbalanced. We can watch our government influencing that lack of balance,” he said. “I want to see a sustainable future for myself, and if I were ever to have children I’d like there to be a sustainable future for them as well. “The way things are trending currently, I don’t believe that’s something that’s going to happen.” Writer and Keystone College adjunct professor of English Brian Fanelli, 27, of Kingston, has attended “Occupy” events in Boston, Mass., over the last few weeks. He began following Occupy Wall Street after Canadian activist group Adbusters began encouraging people to physically occupy to the New York City financial district. “I teach so many young people at Keystone, and I’m worried that they’re acquiring this debt and their job prospects are kind of dim,” he said. The messages play well in ar-

eas like Scranton, a working class city saddled with high unemployment rates, Fanelli said. He hopes continued movements will reverse the actions of Citizens United, a conservative nonprofit organization that won a 2010 Supreme Court case against the Federal Election Commission that, in essence, protects corporate and union funding of independent political broadcasts in candidate elections. “I’m hopeful, in time, that the occupations continue and that it will put pressure on lawmakers to pass various legislation – something to counter Citizens United, a comprehensive jobs bill, and maybe a restructuring of education so young people don’t have to acquire so much debt,” he said. Fanelli said the occupations in downtown Scranton could continue each weekend. Many of those behind this weekend’s event were set to return to work on Monday morning. Dr. Dan Edmunds, 36, an ex-

istential-humanist psychotherapist with a practice in Tunkhannock, was scheduled to address those gathered on Courthouse Square this weekend. The Dunmore resident and founder of the Center for Humane Psychiatry said emotional distress and breakdowns often stem from oppression within a person’s life. “If we really want to have true mental health arise, then we really need to tackle the things in society that are making people distressed to begin with,” he said. Those things, Edmunds said, range from poverty and inequality to a general lack of hope and a feeling of perpetual “survival mode.” “Sadly, I’ve seen that there has been this general apathy and people, to some degree, accepting this abuse that they’re receiving. This movement is the awakening to really tackle the issues and be a voice.” The Occupy movement reaches farther than many of the movements local activist Rox-

anne Pauline, of Taylor, has seen. Seeing the events in New York and Boston come to Lackawanna County makes it more real for the people of northeastern Pennsylvania. “It tells people that you’re part of this, too. It gives people the feeling that these events are on the ground and they’re happening where you live,” she said. “It’s not just New York, it’s not just D.C. It’s their hometown, too.” Pauline, who often addresses such issues as the prevailing wage, infrastructure, and worker’s rights, wasn’t familiar with the people behind Occupy Scranton. She said that’s a good thing. “These are people I’ve never met before, and most of them really never knew each other,” she said. “By the end of the day, we will probably know each other very well and probably strengthen our little movement a little bit more.”

Participants in the New York City demonstrations have essentially rallied against corporate greed, social and economic inequality, and government lobbyists. Those who have worked for the last two weeks to build Scranton’s movement relate to those messages but also see the movement as something more. Gathering symbolically and almost nightly on Courthouse Square at the statue honoring the late labor leader and United Mine Workers President John Mitchell, more than a dozen volunteers concerned with regional and global apathy towards inequity have helped plan the first event in Lackawanna County. Among those gathered over the last two weeks was 25-yearold Scranton resident Chris Deemie. The pharmaceutical telesales worker said he feels the occupations are crucial in awakening those most affected by the “dire state” of the country. “I want to show as much support as I can because I think, generally, the youth of my generation and the generations beneath me are growing increasingly apathetic,” he said. “I just see it as a very, very good cause and something that needs to be addressed. I would like to inform as many people as I can and to open people up to what’s wrong and seeing the fact for themselves.” Deemie said people around his age were mainly responsible for starting the movement, but the messages behind it span generations including those that haven’t been born yet.

CRANTON – The ongoing series of peaceful demonstrations on Wall Street based out of Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan have created spin-off “occupations” across the country, including one that began under the threat of rain on Saturday in Scranton and was expected to continue until at least 9 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 16.

Politicking on public time increases

By RICH HOWELLS rhowells@golackawanna.com

SCRANTON – As election time approaches, the proper use of time allotted for public comment during city and county meetings has been debated by both voters and those running for elected office, particularly this past week when the lines between discourse and campaigning were disputed. Scranton City Controller candidate Ray Nearhood (R) returned to Scranton City Council on Tuesday, as he had done in previous weeks, to list his credentials for office and criticize current City Controller Roseann Novembrino (D). Despite some protest from Council President Janet Evans, he continued to talk about his position and what he viewed as Novembrino’s

failure to manage city finances effectively. “It was nothing more than a political speech. I’ve been attending these meetings for 10 years fighting for this city. Not once have I seen Mr. Nearhood at these meetings. Now that he’s running for public office, he shows up,” Scranton resident Les Spindler reacted. Another city resident, Mary Ann Wardell, who was so tired of watching the “political speeches” live at home on Electric City Television that she came to the meeting to comment, said she has been speaking at council meetings long “before the cameras were here.” “I was a candidate several times. I came to every meeting. However, I didn’t spout my philosophies and my experience and what I know and what I didn’t know when

I was at this podium,’” Wardell said. Council candidate Lee Morgan (R), a longtime speaker at council meetings, felt that as long as he did not announce his candidacy from the podium or talk specifically about politics, he should be able to speak his mind. He found it “disrespectful” that Evans could make comments he could not immediately respond to due to the meeting’s format of parliamentary procedure. “I think that whenever a speaker speaks at the podium, if a councilman agrees or disagrees and wants to engage in conversation, then the conversation should flow freely and unimpeded,” Morgan said. “I would prefer that you debate your opponents in a proper venue and not during the City Council meeting,” Evans told

Morgan. “It’s certainly not a matter of disrespect.” Both council and the Lackawanna County Commissioners have attempted to discourage direct back-and-forth dialogue with speakers, instead allowing citizens to finish their thoughts and then addressing those concerns during the motions portion of the meeting. This has yielded mixed results. Councilman Bob McGoff (D), who is seeking re-election in November, came under fire by several city residents who felt that he has served as a “rubber stamper” for Mayor Chris Doherty. Resident Bill Jackowitz asked him to admit that his previous council majority was “a big failSee POLITICS, Page 7

Inmate beating case held for court By CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@golackawanna.com

SCRANTON – As members of the Sheriff’s Department stood watch with rifles at ready and assisted by a K9 officer, Michael Simonson was led into the Lackawanna County Courthouse on Wednesday wearing handcuffs and shackles. The admitted murderer who escaped prison on Sept. 28 appeared for a hearing on charges that he beat inmate Nicholas Pinto on Aug. 8, 2010, at the prison in Scranton. It’s alleged Simonson stomped on Pinto’s head nearly 15 times, causing severe brain damage and leaving Pinto comatose. Simonson withdrew a previous guilty plea in the case, which led to Wednesday’s hearing. In testimony before county Judge Vito Geroulo, two former Lackawanna County Prison inmates testified that they witnessed Simonson’s attack on Pinto. James Oaks, a former block mate with Simonson in the prison’s restricted housing unit, said Simonson made numerous threats toward Pinto leading up to the attack. “When I see you, I’m going

to (expletive) you over,” Oaks recalled Simonson saying. The evening before Simonson the beating, Simonson allegedly expressed his intent to harm Pinto. “I talked to him that night. He said he was going to crush Pinto,” Oaks said. As Pinto returned from the recreation yard, his cell remained locked for several minutes, according to Oaks. Simonson’s cell was allegedly uncharacteristically left open. Simonson, an administrative custody inmate, and Pinto, a protective custody inmate, would otherwise never have crossed paths. Oaks said Simonson punched Pinto, knocking him out and leaving him slumped against his cell door. As the attack continued, Pinto’s body slumped over, and Simonson “started stomping him.” While shackled, Oaks jumped into the air inside the courtroom, stomping his feet to mimic Simonson’s attack.

Workers worried about status quo Concerned about contract negotiations that were set to end Saturday, members of the Service Employees International Union employed at the Regional Hospital of Scranton gathered Tuesday at the Jewish Community Center, 601 Jefferson Ave., Scranton. An interim contract with Community Health Systems, Inc., expired Oct. 15. “Our prayerful hope is that we can make an agreement,” said Jackie Musyt, who moderated Tuesday’s rally. Workers hope to ratify a contract similar to their final contract with Mercy Hospital, which Musyt said will maintain salary and overtime payment, curb oursourcing of service, and maintain staffing levels. - CHRISTOPHER J.

Archbald man throws steak knife, hits toddler By MATT MORGIS For Go Lackawanna

ARCHBALD - A man was charged by Archbald police on Monday for allegedly throwing steak knives at his family members and striking his 2-year-old son. Roger Broome, 29, of Spruce Street, Archbald, faces two counts of recklessly endanger-

ing another person and one count of simple assault. According to the affidavit: Police received a call at about 3 a.m. on Oct. 10 for a report of Broome throwing knives at his son. Broome was allegedly “drunk and disorderly” during an argument with the boy’s mother, Theresa Ford. Ford al-

leged that Broome threw a steak knife at her and hit the toddler in the head, causing a small laceration. Archbald Capt. Joseph Zegalia was the arresting officer. Broome was arraigned Monday and held for a lack of $5,000 bail. All charges are pending, and a preliminary hearing is set for Oct. 17.

Crime watch director’s car torched By CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@golackawanna.com

SCRANTON – The Scranton police and fire departments confirmed that a vehicle in the 1500 block of Jackson Street was set on fire early Friday morning. Scranton Fire Marshall Martin Monahan said that a passenger side window was broken and the fire was set in the passenger seat of the car. Police Capt. Carl Graziano said the incident happened at about midnight, according to reports. The fire was ruled arson Fri-

day, Monahan said. The car, a 2003 Mini Cooper S, was purchased by West Scranton Hyde Park Neighborhood Crime Watch President Karin Foster in early 2011. There is no current evidence tying Foster’s role in the crime watch to the early Friday arson, Monahan said. The fire is the latest in a string of incidents where vehicles have been damaged over the last month. Both Foster and Monahan said cars in and around the 1500 block of Jackson Street

have had their windows and mirrors broken and nails shoved into tires over the last several weeks. According to www.crimereports.com, this is the second vehicle arson in as many weeks. A vehicle in the 1100 block of Sloan Street was torched just before 5 a.m. on Oct. 1. Monahan asked that anyone with information about Friday’s arson should call the Scranton Police Department at (570) 3484134. He added that he intends to follow all leads in the case.

Siblings arrested outside Scranton officer’s home By MATT MORGIS For Go Lackawanna

SCRANTON – A brother and sister were arrested Friday, Oct. 7 for an alleged incident that happened in the driveway of a Scranton officer. Richard Peters, 28, and Kelly Mincer, 26, both of Fillmore Avenue, Scranton, face charges of simple assault, trespassing, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. Peters is also charged with public drunkenness. According the affidavit: City police received multiple reports of a man and woman fighting in public. One report

came from Scranton Cpl. Anthony Loureiro stating that the two were in his front yard. Mincer was allegedly crying. When police arrived, they advised the two to leave the property, and Peters allegedly responded with a string of profanities. Peters was ordered to the ground after he claimed he had a knife in his left pocket, but police did not find the weapon. He resisted arrest, yelling more curses at Ptlm. Chad Doherty until he was tased and handcuffed.

Mincer, upset that her brother had just been tased and placed under arrest, started yelling at the officers and threatened to press charges. When they attempted to detain her, she also would not comply. S he allegedly cursed at the officers, punched Doherty in the face, and was tased twice before police were able to handcuff her. The two were arraigned on Oct. 7 and released on their own recognizance. All charges are pending, and preliminary hearings set for Oct. 12 were continued to Oct. 24.

SOUTH ABINGTON TOWNSHIP – A township resident was arraigned this week on charges he inappropriately touched his children in a so-called tickling game on several occassions. Mark Richards, 49, of Northern Spy Road, South Abington Township, faces two counts each of aggravated indecent assault of a child less than 13 years old, indecent assault of a person less than 13 years old, and endangering the welfare of children. According to an affidavit: An investigation into the allegations began in July by Lackawanna County Children and Youth Services. Richards told investigators that he believed “he is being set up” by his estranged wife, Patricia, as a result of their pending divorce. In an interview with representatives of the Children’s Advocacy Center, his son said “there is a problem with my dad, he’s been sticking his hands down my underwear and playing with my private parts, and says it’s a tickle game… I know it’s inappropriate so I have to tell my mom.” The alleged abuse only occurred at the children’s grandmother’s home, according to interviews with the two children. “Both said he only used his fingers, both said he inserts his fingers in their rectums, both said it hurts and both said they saw it happen to the other child,” the affidavit states. Because of Mr. Richards’ allegations that the claims were fabricated by his wife, Mrs. Richards underwent a lie detector test on Sept. 26. That test showed no deception when she told investigators she did not coach the children into making up the allegations against their father. Mr. Richards was arraigned Oct.10 and held for $50,000 bail. All charges are pending, and a preliminary hearing is set for Oct. 18.

SCRANTON CITY COUNCIL

New revenue plans County approves CDBG submissions proposed by chair

By RICH HOWELLS rhowells@golackawanna.com

SCRANTON – As the city continues to face an estimated $6.5 million budget shortfall with projections changing monthly, City Council Finance Chairman Frank Joyce made several suggestions for revenuegenerating initiatives on Tuesday that could be implemented to prevent further deficits in 2012. The list of proposals was also included in a letter dated Oct. 13 from City Clerk Nancy Krake to Mayor Chris Doherty, asking the mayor to include the initiatives in the city’s revised Recovery Plan and the 2012 operating budget. Joyce’s suggestions include: • Selling or leasing the city’s parking garages, if feasible, and implementing a smart parking meter system like StreetSmart, which utilizes sensors under the pavement and radio telemetry to detect vehicles moving in and out of parking spaces. The plan was budgeted for by council in 2011 but held up when the Scranton Parking Authority and city administration determined that StreetSmart Technology, LLC, was not a sole source provider of the service and eventually put out a request for proposals. • Implementing a program to allow city businesses to place paid advertisements on city refuse collection trucks and street sweepers. Joyce said this

was executed successfully in New York City, resulting in nearly $10 million of new revenue. • Petitioning the court to allow the city “pauper” status on filing fees for civil actions in magisterial or district courts, meaning the city would not have to pay for filing fees that are an expense to the city when a matter goes to court. Joyce said the city of Reading was allowed this while they were under Act 47 distressed status, as Scranton has been for 19 years, and would save the city on lien fees and court costs associated with delinquent taxes and refuse fees. • Implementing a strong rental registration program, which requires landlords to register with the city and pay according fees. Council feels that this program has remained largely ineffective for years, but Councilman Bob McGoff said he has recently met with city solicitor Paul Kelly, Jr., and he has drafted new legislation that may replace the original ordinance. • Implementing a surcharge on non-parking violations, such as summary offenses and criminal activities. “If the reason that we need police on the street is due to crime, I say let the criminals take a greater part in paying for their expenses,” Joyce explained. “If the fines are higher, perhaps it could be used as a force to drive criminals out of the city.”

SCRANTON – Lackawanna County Commissioners unanimously approved the submission of a Community Development Block Grant application on behalf of cities, boroughs, and municipalities in the county to largely fund storm water improvements, among other proposed projects. Administered by the state Department of Community and Economic Development, the projects are meant to serve “the needs of low and moderate income residents and eliminating slums and blighting influences.” Community Development Contract Manager Michelle Giovagnoli said the county would be receiving $1.5 million in CDBG money, a 16 percent decrease from 2010. “This year, even though we had a decrease in funding, we were able to allocate funds for all the projects that were submitted,” Giovagnoli added. The first part of the legislation applies for $182,680 for storm water improvements in Moosic, $19,095 in Jefferson Township for a township building elevator,

POLICE BLOTTER The following criminal charges were filed in Lackawanna County Court between Oct. 9 and Oct. 11. All accounts are derivative of police affidavits, and all charges are pending following the suspects’ respective preliminary hearings.

OLD FORGE • Benjamin Harris, 38, of South Main Street, Old Forge, is charged with simple assault, harassment, and disorderly conduct after a domestic incident on Sunday.

$15,000 each for clearance and demolition in Spring Brook Township and Vandling, and $50,872 for administration for a total of $282,647. All four are considered “non-entitlement” municipalities. Separate applications were submitted on behalf of individual municipalities for projects and administration, including: • Archbald: $112,147 for storm water improvements in the Nebraska section. • Blakely: $120,210 for water and sewer improvements on Second Street. • Clarks Summit: $101,217 for storm water improvements on Bedford Street. • Dickson City: $111,997 for water and sewer improvements on Main Street. • Dunmore: $190,061 for clearance and demolition and police station improvements. • Jessup: $97,140 for Lawler Drive Housing Authority park and recreation facilities and street improvements from Erie Street to 1st Avenue. • Old Forge: $137,905 for storm water improvements on Sampson Street. • Olyphant: $99,738 for storm

water improvements related to a flood control project • Scott Township: $99,268 for on-lot sewage disposal systems on a single-unit residential property • Taylor: $114,695 for storm water improvements on Pond Street. • Throop: $90,066 for water and sewer improvements on Kossuth Street. Commissioner Bruce Smallacombe said that was “disappointed” that more non-entitlement municipalities did not step forward and called it “a very bleak year for applications.” “That money is there and they can do these storm water projects, just like every other community does, and they just don’t come forward to come and get that money,” Smallacombe said. Additionally, commissioners unanimously ratified a single application for up to $1 million in assistance from the Local Share Assessment Grant program to expand the county’s wireless project’s coverage area to Salem Mountain and Blair Hill towers, strengthening the signal in Carbondale, Clifton, Moscow, Roaring Brook, Elmhurst, and North Pocono.

With McGoff unwilling to engage in an exchange with them, both conversations quickly devolved into heated debates. For the second time in two weeks, Miller picked up a chair and placed it next to the council members, asking the mayor to be “a big boy” and sit there to face voters in an open forum. “I do believe that (Miller) was very condescending in the things that he said both about myself and about the mayor…I don’t believe that demeaning other people is the way in which you would solve things,” McGoff responded. “This podium is not a bully pulpit for political campaigns. It’s just not the thing to do.” Nearhood attended the Lackawanna County Commissioners meeting the fol-

lowing morning, questioning, as he had at several meetings this year, the reasoning and funding behind a county-wide wireless network. Commissioner candidate William Jones II (R) also questioned commissioners about the sale of a county property, following previous appearances where he asked commissioners about various unrelated issues. Past appearances resulted in Commissioner Mike Washo (D) stating that he “resents” Jones’ allegations of alleged misconduct, and he asked Nearhood at a July meeting to clarify that he was running for office after he inquired about Commissioner Corey O’Brien’s campaign contributors. After Wednesday’s meeting, O’Brien acknowledged the frequency of political rhetoric during election time but said he welcomes the debate. “It’s the beauty of democracy. We don’t all have to agree, but we can respectfully disagree. That’s the beauty of the system of government we have, so I encourage it,” he said. “I think it’s healthy – it’s a healthy exchange between people, and we can do it in a respectful way, and we saw that today.”

NEWS BRIEFS Fired prison guards named Lackawanna County officials revealed the identities of the four prison guards terminated over the Sept. 28 escape of Michael Simonson on Wednesday. Sgt. Brian Cwalinski and corrections officers Richard Pitoniak, Kevin Dolphin, and Michael Zemantauski were sent termination letters this week following their immediate firing announced Friday, Oct. 7, by Warden Robert McMillan. Those prison employees, according to McMillan’s letter, failed to follow orders regarding special handling of Simonson. The guards were suspended on the evening immediately following the escape. Simonson is tentatively scheduled for a preliminary hearing regarding the escape on Oct. 24. - CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES

Scranton sting targets scrap metal buyers Police executed an undercover operation on Friday, Oct. 7 at five area businesses to review their compliance with the Scrap Metal Theft Prevention Act, according to a press release issued Thursday. The investigation resulted in two businesses – Bladt’s at 403 North South Rd., Scranton, and Hosko’s at 417 N. Keyser Ave., Scranton – receiving summary offense charges through Magistrate Terry Gallagher’s office that could bring $2,500 fines. Elmwood Specialized, 105 Middle St.; Upstate Shredding - Ben Weitsman, 1500 N. Keyser Ave.; and Mike’s Scrap Recycling, 3001 Boulevard Ave., were all in compliance with laws, according to the press release. Workers from Mike’s Scrap Recycling even called Scranton police to alert them about the suspicious encounter with their own undercover officers. - CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES

U of S study: Try suds, spuds Research by a University of Scranton professor indicates your heart will thank you if you drink a lager and eat 16 purple-skinned potatoes every day. The studies conducted by chemistry professor Joe Vinson, 69, of Dalton, follow a 2003 study on the effects certain styles of beer had on hardening of the arteries that was mentioned in an August edition of Women’s World magazine. The study that was conducted on hamsters showed that lagers and other darker beers rich in antioxidants and polyphenols could reduce the risk of atherosclerosis by 62 percent. A more recent study, funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, looked at the benefits of eating potatoes, specifically purpleskinned tubers with their skin still on. Not only did the findings show a health benefit – the average diastolic blood pressure of participants dropped by 4.3 percent and the systolic pressure decreased by 3.5 percent – but also the results bucked the belief that eating 200 calories of potatoes daily would cause weight gain. None of the study participants gained weight. “We could OD on potatoes and still not gain weight,” he said with a smirk. “It’s a good food for you if you’re obese.” But frying them or taking the fiber-rich skins off would offset the positive effects. - ANDREW M.

In 2011, the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC) selected “William Penn’s Legacy: Religious and Spiritual Diversity” as its annual history theme. Pennsylvania has a strong connection to religious diversity dating back to its Native American inhabitants who placed great importance on spirituality and to its colonial period when founder William Penn advanced tolerance of a variety of beliefs and traditions through his Holy Experiment. The theme offers Pennsylvanians an excellent opportunity to focus our rich heritage and look at how religious traditions and values have shaped the American experience. To promote this theme, the Anthracite Heritage Museum, a PHMC site, is pleased to present “Faith and Governance” on Sunday, Oct. 23 at 2 p.m. The program will offer a series of presenters who will address a different perspective of how religion has played a role in our community’s development and continues to influence society on many levels.

Music listeners across the world are inspired everyday by their favorite groups, but hard alternative rock band RED want everyone to know that they’re just as inspired by their fans. RED will stop at Eleanor Rigby’s, 603 Scranton/Carbondale Highway in Jermyn, on Friday, Oct. 21, with Head, Icon for Hire, and Echoes the Fall. Guitarist Anthony Armstrong formed the band in Erie in 2004 with his twin brother, Randy. With both of their parents being singers, it was only a matter of time before the identical siblings fell into the music business. “When we were kids, we were just little punks. We didn’t really listen to our parents a whole lot, just like any young kid. I think music is what all these kids were turning to. Even nowadays, a lot of kids turn to music for inspiration, for questions they have. They find escape and release in listening to music, so I think that’s what ultimately led us to do what we’re doing,” Armstrong recalled. After finding a producer in Nashville, Tenn., the musicians packed everything they owned and moved across the country in the middle of the night, residing there now for almost 11 years. While some bands avoid the label of Christian rock in hopes of finding a mainstream success, RED has successfully done so without having to hide who they

are. “To us, it’s just a label. We’re out there just making good, heavy rock music and doing our thing,” Armstrong explained. Three best-selling albums and two Grammy Award nominations for Best Rock Gospel Album later, the band feels like they have blazed their own trail and defined success in their own way. “You can make a million dollars. If that’s success to you, then that’s success. I think our success is that we can sustain what we love to do, play music and tour the world, and inspire people through music and take care of our families,” he feels. “Each record has progressively gotten better, bigger, and done more things in the market that we’re in. Everything is just on a downward slope as far as music buying is concerned, but RED is still continuing to sell records and have something to say.” Released in February, their latest record, “Until We Have Faces,” retains their philosophy of finding your own identity and encourages listeners to follow their own paths. “In the last few years of touring, we’ve seen people that are more or less faceless, people that are trying to fit the mold, trying to go along with the flow, and never really doing anything to define their lives. Rather, they’re letting the world define them,” Armstrong observed. “For us, we see it so often that it

ends up just turning people into monsters. There’s so much more that I feel people have to offer the world or the world around them…if they just be themselves and they do what they’re meant to do rather than doing what everybody wants them to do.” It’s a genuine message that Armstrong believes the band exemplifies. “They’ve got to see us being leaders, in a lot of ways, and creating more leaders. It’s not about creating a bunch followers and minions of RED. It’s to create leaders.” Offstage, RED retains their own website, redmusiconline.com, and Armstrong’s brother answers fan questions for an hour every Saturday on Facebook so that they can stay connected to those that continue to inspire them. “We’re vigilant with our fans because we’re drawing inspiration from them,” he said. “The fact that they can actually reach out and more or less be able to contact the band directly rather than some record label executive or somebody is really cool, I think. Growing up, if we had that opportunity, we would have taken full advantage of it.”

SCRANTON – The Northeastern Pennsylvania Philharmonic aims to “introduce kids to the orchestra” through a John Williams tribute concert Friday, Oct. 21, at the Scranton Cultural Center, 420 N. Washington Ave., Scranton. “It’s one of those concerts that are really accessible to both adults and kids alike. It introduces young kids to the orchestra with music that they know and is very accessible to them,” said Stephen Parulski, director of marketing and community relations for the Philharmonic. “We really enjoy having these kinds of concerts.” The event will showcase music by Academy Award winning composer John Williams. “He has always been able to capture the characters and the action and the feelings beyond what you see on the screen with his music,” Philharmonic Music Director Lawrence Loh said. “He created characters with his music.” Featured predominantly throughout the night will be scores from the “Potter” series along with other notable musical themes and Halloween music.

IF YOU GO WHAT: John Williams tribute concert featuring music from ‘Harry Potter’ and more. WHERE: Scranton Cultural Center, 420 N. Washington Ave., Scranton. WHEN: Friday, Oct. 21, 8 p.m. COST: $28-$60 for adults, $15 for students. INFO: www.nepaphil.org, (570) 341-1568.

“ ‘Harry Potter,’ as the whole world knows, just finished its run of books and films. As we were planning the season, we knew people would still be having ‘Harry Potter’ fever after the summer of these two final movies,” Loh said. Film scores by other composers will also be performed including music from “Batman” by Danny Elfman and the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy by Howard Shore. The performing orchestra is comprised of many talented musicians selected from competitive auditions for a seat with the professional ensemble. “We believe it’s one of the best orchestras of its size anywhere in terms of musical quality,” said Loh proudly. “Everyone here has really great attitudes and enthu-

siasm.” The audience is encouraged to dress up as their favorite charac-

ter from the “Harry Potter” films and be as creative as possible for the event to embrace the spirit of

the holiday. A costume contest will take place with prizes for the best dressed adults and children.

GO-GETTER: JESSE ERGOTT Resides in: Tunkhannock Education: Central Columbia High School Class of 1996, 2000 graduate of Bloomsburg University. Occupation: Executive director of Neighborhood Housing Services of Lackawanna County This weeks’s Go-Getter spends his days serving homeowners and first time home buyers in Lackawanna County. He can also be found serving on various boards in the community, each related to bettering the home owner and health care landscape in our region. Jesse Ergott, 34, began his professional career working for the Lackawanna Valley Heritage Authority after graduating from Bloomsburg University with a bachelors degree in planning. Ergott held several positions over the seven-year career, including chief operating officer. Currently, Ergott is the executive director at Neighborhood Housing Services of Lackawanna County. “Our goal at Neighborhood Housing Services, at its most basic level, is to create and preserve home ownership for families in this region. We adminis-

ter home rehabilitation programs for modest income families. There are a lot of people in our region who own their own homes but don’t necessarily have the means to make improvements. “We also work on foreclosure prevention counseling. Many people have lost the ability to keep up with their mortgage for health reasons, employment reasons. We believe homeownership brings stability to the neighborhood,” says Ergott. He is also treasurer for the Northeast Pennsylvania Area Health Education Center, a company that works to ensure that top ranked health leaders are recruited to work in underserved rural and urban areas. Ergott’s work throughout Lackawanna County is dedicated to helping those who may be less fortunate. Those missions, he said, are often driven by his faith. “I’m definitely someone who values faith, through my upbringing and work with the church. Working in a capacity to provide people with some hope, helping people meet the basic need of having a roof over their head is very rewarding to me and is something that drives me every day,” says Ergott.

‘Red State’ not all horror but not bad, either I wanted something new, and I definitely got it. Top-notch performances by underrated actors like Michael Parks and John Goodman make for an excellent indie flick, but behind the scenes, many were too busy criticizing its creator to critique his creation. Entertainment media instantly turned on Smith for not indulging in a post-Sundance film auction, saying that his career was “imploding.” . That demonstrated the faith he has in his fans to consistently support him and his work, even when he doesn’t always say what you’d expect him to. Maybe big companies will never understand that mentality, but in the end, the little guy usually will.

an unexpected but worthy follow-up to his original magnum opus, and I laughed pretty hard at “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” in 2008. But then the unthinkable happened. Smith made a movie that even I couldn’t get behind. “Cop Out,” a 2010 comedy starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan, was an homage, of sorts, to the buddy cop genre of the ‘80s and ‘90s that only served to remind me why those types of movies became as played out as their premise. This was the first film of Smith’s career that he did not write, and without his trademark dialogue and storytelling technique, it felt generic. I took a break from reading his posts when he reacted poorly to criticism of “Cop Out.” His podcasts began taking off soon after, so I started listening again when I heard that his long-rumored foray into the horror

feels like a horror film, it swiftly changes direction and barely looks back, evolving into an intense, unpredictable action movie instead. The plot follows three teenage boys looking for sex who end up getting captured and tortured by the self-righteous Five Points Church, who punish sins in an Old Testament kind of way. Once the local police discover what’s been going on inside their twisted house of worship, they attempt to raid the compound, which escalates quickly into a Waco-style shootout. Main characters drop like flies and the camera puts you right in the middle of the chaos. Excuse the pun, but it’s a blast from here on out.

genre, “Red State,” had finally begun production. As a horror movie buff, I was curious as to how he was going to adapt to a genre he had yet to attempt, and he often hyped his newfound visual style by listing foreign film influences like “Let the Right One In.” Sick of unoriginal remakes and cheap gimmicks, he was speaking my language. Due out on DVD and Blu-ray this Tuesday, “Red State” was released a few months back on Video on Demand, which is how I’ve already seen it. Was it a welcome departure from his usual approach? Yes. Was it a fun, entertaining movie with a some underlying messages? Yes. Was it a horror film? This is what had me scratching my head. For years, Smith had talked about this project, inspired by the hate-filled preaching of infamous Westboro Baptist Church pastor Fred Phelps, and every single time he did, the word “horror” was used. Early ads and promotional posters solidified this assumption. While the first half-hour or so definitely

Reviews of a little film called “Red State” have been mixed. Feeling about a little filmmaker named Kevin Smith have also varied over the last year. Despite feeling batted around a bit by both the movie and its maker, I confess that I’ve still found a way to enjoy them both. I grew up watching Smith’s earlier movies, and I had the pleasure of seeing him speak at Bloomsburg University and meeting him long before his speaking engagements sold out big theaters. Even when he released “Jersey Girl” in 2004, widely panned by his fans for being too sappy, I stuck by the writer/director because he made something that meant a lot to him as a new father. It was still funny, although in a different way, and while I wasn’t a parent myself, I could still enjoy the down-toearth story as comedian George Carlin was granted one of the best film roles of his career. Smith returned to his roots two years later with “Clerks II,”

TV pilot premiering at Marquee on Oct. 25

IF YOU GO WHAT: ‘Double or Nutin’ ’ Scranton premiere. WHEN: Tues., Oct. 25, 7 p.m. WHERE: Marquee Cinemas, 301LackawannaAve.,Scranton. COST: $3, business promotional tables available for $100. INFO: sbrodian@yahoo.com. TV premiere on WNEP-TV on Fri., Oct. 28, and Fri., Nov. 4, 1 a.m. after ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live.’

Stewart Brodian is a celebrity impersonator, radio host, musician, composer, singer, independent newspaper publisher, author, artist, actor, and film producer, but he isn’t satisfied with stopping there. His next venture? Television, of course. He will be premiering his new comedy show, “Double or Nutin’,” locally on Tuesday, Oct. 25 at 7 p.m. at Marquee Cinemas, 301 Lackawanna Ave., Scranton, before it airs on WNEP-TV on Friday, Oct. 28 and Nov. 4 at 1 a.m. after “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” Born and raised in New Jersey, Brodian has lived in the Lehigh Valley for the last 20 years, where he became an alternative rock disc jockey at WDIY 88.1 FM in August of 1995, amongst other radio gigs. In that time, he has recorded his own music, published a small newspaper called “Nickel,” written a book entitled “I’m Not Snooki,” and started working as a celebrity impersonator. Mimicking everyone from Abraham Lincoln to “Batman” villain the Joker, he became best known for portraying radio shock jock Howard Stern at private parties and corporate functions, eventually making appearances on “The Howard Stern Show” itself. A friend with a cable TV show asked him to play a Howard Stern impersonator for a skit, which inspired him to write a back-story for the character which became the script for “Double or Nutin’.” “Too many times I hear people say, ‘There’s nothing else to watch.’ I decided to take that to

heart and, having this script in mind, I decided to make a pilot, show it around, get it some publicity, and see what kind of buzz I could create on account of it,” Brodian explained. “I hate reality television, but this show is 90 percent the truth.” The show follows the life of a Pennsylvania actor and celebrity impersonator who attempts to pitch his own local cable TV variety show using other celebrity

impersonators. His goal was to not only create a program that wasn’t just another talent or reality show but to deliver a comedy/drama that the whole family could enjoy. Unlike the man he resembles, Brodian never resorts to sex jokes or profanity for laughs. “Everybody is trying to push the envelope to try to get attention. I’m doing the one thing that nobody else is doing – keeping it clean…In my TV show, people talk the way people actually talk,” he said. “Double or Nutin’” has already aired in other markets, including Allentown and New York City, where the creator says it has received positive reviews. He hopes the premiere at Marquee Cinemas, which will include a subsequent questionand-answer session, will continue that buzz.

“The ultimate goal is to get on a major network, and call me a dreamer, but I’m listening to people complain and I wouldn’t mind starting a new revolution in the world of television….The

old expression goes, ‘Give the public what they want.’ That’s what I’m doing, or trying to do,” Brodian said. For more information, visit www.doubleornutin.com.

Finishes surprise first-timers SCRANTON – Runner’s World added to the list of honors for the Steamtown Marathon earlier this year when the magazine named Steamtown one of the best 10 places for those looking to run their first marathon. When including the Forest City-to-Scranton run on their list, editors may not have had Renee Skelly and Samantha Snead in mind. The feature story’s tips were all about how to select safe, enjoyable debut marathon. Winning was not part of the agenda. But that is what Skelly, a 29year-old from Philadelphia, did when she held off Snead, a 23year-old Marywood University graduate student from Moscow, to take the women’s title in the first marathon for both runners. Skelly finished her sometimes torturous journey with a victory. Snead surged to the finish line in second place with a smile. A two-time, All-American cross country runner at North Carolina State, Skelly dominated the women’s fieldbefore beginning to break down. “I think I went out a little too fast,” she said after winning in 2:50:58. “People warned me not to do so. “I was feeling pretty good for 13 or 14 miles.” At about 17 miles, after the Rails to Trails portion of the course, Skelly started struggling. Before long, she could hear race workers discussing the possibility that she might not finish and might need medical assistance. “I had a baby last year and I’ve had some medical issues,” said Skelly, who had never run a race longer than 10 miles. “I made some assumptions about (a marathon), but I didn’t really know what it would be like. “With about 10 miles to go, I experienced something I never experienced before.” Skelly stopped to walk “seven or eight times,” while proceeding toward the finish. Snead began cutting a gap that at one time had approached a mile down to the final margin of a single city block. “I remember thinking, ‘I gave

KEEPING SCORE TOM ROBINSON birth, I can do this’,” Skelly said. It wasn’t easy. Some of the top men passed Skelly by until it was just Snead chasing her through the streets of Scranton. Snead ran for one year in high school as a senior at North Pocono and one year in college at Penn State-Scranton as a sophomore in 2008. She had one standout season on the small school college level, setting four course records, winning a Pennsylvania State University Athletic Conference title and finishing second in the United States College Athletic Association National Championship in Virginia. Snead did not, however, continue her running career at the Penn State Main Campus. When she returned to Lackawanna County, Snead started running with friends and began training with people from the national running center. In the Oct. 9 marathon, she kept up an average pace of 6:32 for 26 miles to eventually finish 22 seconds behind Skelly, but she didn’t enter as a contender. “Along the way, people would say the lead female is five minutes or 5 ½ minutes ahead,” Snead said. “I didn’t want to go out and do something stupid.” Snead moved from fourth to second among the women as the message about Skelly began to change. “I wasn’t able to see her until the uphill at St. Joseph’s and then I didn’t see her again until Cooper’s,” Snead said. “I was told she was starting to slow down. “I gave what I had. I hadn’t really thought about winning it.” When Skelly responded well to Snead’s final push to hold on for the win, Snead’s finish line reaction to the clock’s 2:51:20 said it all. “I’m just excited,” said Snead, whose longest previous races were half marathons. “This is unexpected. “I just wanted to go under three (hours).” Skelly and Snead showed that it is difficult for first-time marathon runners to know just what to expect.

Champ Kemboi never looked back S

By TOM ROBINSON For Go Lackawanna

RESULTS

CRANTON – Peter Kemboi ran by himself for the final 20 miles of the 16th annual Steamtown Marathon. When Kemboi proved too strong early, all those chasing him could do was hope something changed late. “You never know, you keep going and think maybe the hills will get to him,” Scranton’s Matt Byrne said. They never did.

Kemboi, who broke away from the pack in the sixth minute, cruised to the title in 2:19:26, the fifth-fastest time in the event’s history and the second-fastest since 1999. “I like this course,” said Kemboi, a Kenyan who lives and trains in Kentucky. “It is very steep. “I run on steep hills when I train.” Byrne and Dickson City’s Kevin Borrelli, the only two-time overall winners in Steamtown history, each wound up more than three minutes back in second and third. “The support was phenomenal, as always,” said Borrelli, who is in the middle of another successful season as the Marywood University cross country coach. “I can’t be disappointed. “I ran a (personal record). It’s about 20 seconds off my best time.” After hundreds of cancellations cut into the sold-out field of 2,306 runners, about 2,000 took off from Forest City High School at 8 a.m. Oct. 9. Kemboi quickly got himself into the lead pack and, less than a half hour into the race, simply became the lead runner. A total of 1,861 runners – 1,111 men and 750 women – eventually crossed the finish line in downtown Scranton but none were in position to threaten Kemboi. The win was the third of the year for Kemboi, who picked up victories in Akron last month and Louisville earlier after winning marathons in Memphis and Mississippi last year. Only five runners broke the 2:30

mark, with Justin Gillette and Christopher Heisey following Borrelli. Tom Lipsey, a 44-year-old from Indiana, Pa. who was fifth a year ago, came in sixth, making him the champion of the Masters Division for runners 40 and over. Champion Renee Skelly and runner-up Samantha Snead from Moscow were the only two women to break three hours. Behind them, there were various battles going on for age group titles. Former Boston Marathon age group champion Tony Cerminaro, a 75-year-old from Jermyn, continued his amazing history in the event. Cerminaro has won his age group in all 16 years. Often, like this year, it is not close. Only two runners older than Cerminaro, the 70-and-over champion, completed the race. Cerminaro finished 347th overall, beating more than 1,500 younger runners to finish in 3:31:55 and take his age group by more than 45 minutes. Nancy Werthmuller from Scott Township moved to a new age group but remained a champion, taking the 60-64 women’s group with a time of 3:46:10. Kaleen Lavin from Dunmore won the 22-25 women’s group title. Snead was also part of that age group, but as a money winner in the overall prize list, she was not eligible for age group honors. James Drogalis of Old Forge and Tom Kusy of Clarks Summit were each second in their age group. Drogalis was second among men under 25 in 2:54:52. Kusy was second among men 60-64 in 3:34:11. Karen Dolge from Valatie, N.Y. was the Masters women’s champion.

Steelers spoil Munchak’s Pa. debut By JASON RIEDMILLER For Go Lackawanna

P

ITTSBURGH - The Pittsburgh Steelers were suffering a serious Super Bowl hangover. Following an opening week trouncing by arch rivals the Baltimore Ravens and a disappointing loss last week to the Houston Texans, it seemed Pittsburgh could not compete against quality opponents.

Entering Week 5, it didn’t look like things would improve with a visibly injured Ben Roethlisberger under center. The Steelers were also missing starting running back Rashard Mendenhall and fourtime Pro Bowl linebacker James Harrison, among others. Scranton native and rookie head coach Mike Munchak and his Tennessee Titans brought a three game winning streak into Pittsburgh and ended up on the wrong end of a black and yellow steamroller. Big Ben threw for 228 yards and tied a career high five touchdown passes with one in-

terception. He hit wide receiver Hines Ward for two touchdowns and threw one each to Mike Wallace, Heath Miller, and David Johnson for a 38-17 victory over Tennessee last Sunday. Missing three starters in Harrison, Casey Hampton, and Aaron Smith, the depleted Steelers defense held Titans running back Chris Johnson to 51 yards on 14 carries and sacked quarterback Matt Hasselback three times. Despite third and fourth quarter touchdowns, the Titans never presented a real threat to the dominant Steelers defense in Munchak’s Pennsylvania debut as a head coach. “I don’t want say we played

flat, but we didn’t play well.” Munchak said. “Against a good team you can’t do that, and you can’t do that (in Pittsburgh.)” Coach Mike Tomlin gave the game ball to tackle Max Starks after he was called up by the Steelers to step in for Marcus Gilbert who was out with a shoulder injury. Starks played for the first time in almost a year after a near career-ending injury last November. “He stepped up,” Roethlisberger said of Starks after he provided key protection throughout the game. “Our biggest goal was to keep him upright,” Starks said of Roethlisberger. “And we knew he’d perform if we did that.”

quarter. Louis Febbo’s 42-yard touchdown run midway through the third quarter closed the scoring.

AROUND DIVISION 3

Old Forge, Mid Valley and defending champion Susquehanna all came away from the week with 2-0 division records. Mid Valley will host Old Forge Friday after moving to 2-0 with a 40-14 romp over Holy Cross. Susquehanna downed Montrose, 45-8. Holy Cross scored first on a 65-yard Rob Heyen run on the game’s first play. Antonio Russo scored the first two of his four touchdowns, the second of which came from 80 yards out, to put the Spartans ahead, 16-7, after one quarter. Greg Price ran for three touchdowns and Susquehanna scored three times in the first seven minutes of the second half to build a 38-0.

DIVISION 1

Scranton and Wallenpaupack moved into a second-place tie in the division with road wins. Scranton shut out North Pocono, 27-0, and Wallenpaupack defeated West

Scranton, 42-14. The Knights and Buckhorns join Delaware Valley, a 21-7 loser to Valley View, at 3-1 in the division. Scranton has been dominant throughout October after going 1-3 in September. The Knights have outscored opponents, 105-7, in a threegame winning streak to start the month. Two of the three wins have come by shutouts. West Scranton led Wallenpaupack until the final minute of the first half. Pat Ingulli scored late in the first half to tie the game then led Delaware Valley on a 99-yard drive that he capped with another score in the third quarter. Ingulli finished with five touchdowns.

DIVISION 2 Carbondale pulled off one upset, but Riverside rallied to avoid another. Carbondale topped Western Wayne, 40-14, for its second win of the season after winning just once a year ago. Riverside rallied to defeat Honesdale, 29-23. The Hornets took the lead on a 65yard, Kevin Miller-to-Kyle Carney touchdown pass on the first play and lead for much of the game. TOM ROBINSON and ROBERT TOMKAVAGE contributed to this report, which also includes information taken from www.northeastpafootball.com.

SPORTS

Old Forge quarterback Colin Carey accounted for four touchdowns and 254 of his 274 total yards in the first half to help the Blue Devils break in front on the way to a 37-6 romp over Lackawanna Trail. The Blue Devils piled up 415 yards rushing and 555 yards total offense while improving to 2-0 in Division 3 of the Lackawanna Football Conference and 5-2 overall. The Lions have dropped two straight since winning their first five and are now 0-2 and 5-2. Carey got the scoring started on a 35yard run with 2:33 left in the first quarter. Marvess Rosiak brought Lackawanna Trail back within 7-6 after one quarter by breaking a 48-yard touchdown run with three seconds left. Carey then ran for two touchdowns and passed for another in the final seven minutes of the half. He ran 9 and 76 yards, then passed 66 yards to Dave Argust with 1:46 remaining. The late burst produced a 28-6 halftime lead. Carey ran eight times for 133 yards and three scores in the first half then finished with 13 carries for 134 yards. He was 4-for-10 passing for 121 yards in the first half and went 1-for-2 for 19 yards in the second half. Old Forge added a safety when the Lackawanna Trail punter stepped out of the back of the end zone in the third

Valley View took a straight-forward approach to its showdown with host Delaware Valley. The Cougars ran the ball on 46 of 49 offensive plays, grinding out 315 rushing yards on their way to a 21-7 victory Friday night in the battle of Lackawanna Football Conference Division 1 unbeatens. Tyler Phillips carried 18 times for 139 yards and two touchdowns to lead the way as Valley View improved to 4-0 in the division and 7-0 overall while taking over sole possession of first place. Pat Jeffers, who shares the tailback duties with Phillips, added 97 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. Fullback Tyler Kapinus ripped through the interior of the Delaware Valley defense for 74 yards on eight carries. The Valley View defense, as usual, did its part. The Cougars have given up just one first-half touchdown this season and that came after they had opened a 28-0 lead on Carbondale in the second week of the season. Valley View allowed just eight rushing yards in the first half. The defense also stood up to the most diversified passing attack in the LFC, coming up with three sacks and two interceptions while holding the Warriors to a 33-percent completion rate and less than four yards per attempt. The Cougars immediately established control, scoring on two of three drives to start the game. Jeffers took the first play 48 yards. He carried all six plays on a game-opening, 61-yard drive that he finished off from the 1 for a 7-0 lead after less than three minutes. Phillips went to work on Valley View’s third possession after a partially blocked punt set up the Cougars at the Warriors 49. The Cougars were facing second-and-14 from their 47 before Phillips went around left end for 23 yards. Liam Callejas found tight end Nyeem Wartman for 17 yards and the team’s only pass completion of the night on the next play. Phillips followed up the pass with a 13yard run for a touchdown and 14-0, first-quarter lead. Valley View did not let Delaware Valley past its own 37 on the first four possessions. Another short punt led to a five-play, 42-yard scoring drive in the second quarter. Phillips scored from the 9. Delaware Valley opened the second-half with an impressive, ground-oriented, 12-play, 72-yard scoring drive. Bryan Schor scrambled in from the 8 to cut the lead to 21-7 less than five minutes into the second half. The Warriors, however, did not get past their 33 again. Valley View had one fourth-quarter drive stopped inside the 1 and ended the game by kneeling on the ball from the Delaware Valley 9. Schor finished 8-for-24 for 95 yards for Delaware Valley, which is 3-1 and 6-1.

TOP STORY

Julia Crilly and Jenell McFadden each produced double-doubles Thursday night while leading the University of Scranton to a 3-1 women’s volleyball victory over visiting Marywood University in the Dig Pink Match to raise money for breast cancer awareness. Scranton (13-9) won 25-17, 25-18, 19-25, 25-22. Crilly had 15 kills and 16 digs. McFadden had 13 kills and 11 digs. Emily Keim added 23 assists and five service aces. Kathleen Reilly had nine kills to lead Marywood (12-9).

HONOR ROLL

Marywood University sophomore Diana D’Achille continued her domination of the Colonial States Athletic Conference women’s cross country Runner of the Week award. D’Achille was honored for the third straight time and the fifth time this season when she led the Pacers to first place out of 23 teams in the Blue Race at the Oct. 8 DeSales University Invitational. D’Achille finished third out of 205 runners to lead five finishers in the top 20 for Marywood, the seventh ranked team in the Mideast Region, according to the latest U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) rankings. Chris Wasnetsky, a senior from Bishop O’Hara, was named University of Scranton Athlete of the Week after placing ninth in his race at the DeSales Invitational. Jessica Sciscione, a junior back on the University of Scranton women’s soccer team, was named Landmark Conference Defensive Player of the Week after helping her team to a pair of shutouts as part of a streak in which it allowed just one goal in 598 minutes. Carly Bergstrom from the Marywood field hockey team made the CSAC Honor Roll after scoring both of the team’s goals in an overtime win over Keystone College Oct. 6. Keystone named field hockey player Hope Krolewski and cross country runner Justin Clarke as its Athletes of the Week.

TOP EVENTS

Siobhan Blancaflor’s hat trick helped Marywood defeat visiting Baptist Bible College, 5-1, Tuesday night in a CSAC women’s soccer game. Western Connecticut State ended Scranton’s seven-game women’s soccer unbeaten streak, 1-0, Wednesday night. Gretchen Kempf scored two goals and assisted on the other as Scranton downed visiting Oneonta State, 3-1, in field hockey Tuesday.

Abington’s Courtney Ostrowski prepares to return a volley in the championship doubles match against her classmates on Wednesday at Birchwood.

TEAM Abington Heights is the top seed in Class AAA while Scranton Prep, Valley View and Mid Valley have all qualified for the Class AA team tournament. Mid Valley will make its district tournament debut Monday as the sixth seed when it plays at third-seeded Wyoming Seminary at 4 in a District 2 Class AA quarterfinal. Valley View is the fifth seed and will play at fourth-seeded Dallas Monday night at 7. The Mid Valley-Wyoming Seminary winner will meet second-seeded Holy Redeemer and the Valley View-Dallas winner will face top-seeded Scranton Prep Thursday at 12:30 in semifinal matches at Kirby Park. The finals will immediately follow the semifinals. Abington Heights is the top seed in the District 2-4 Class AAA team tournament and will begin play Thursday in an 11:30 a.m. semifinal at Kirby Park, most likely against Wallenpaupack.

CLARKS SUMMIT – Tyra Abdalla and Allie Pusateri played the roles of bracket busters for two days in the District 2-4 Class AAA girls’ tennis doubles tournament. Their Abington Heights teammates, Courtney Ostrowski and Alexa Abdalla, however, eventually came away with the gold medals Wednesday afternoon at the Birchwood Racquet Club. The sixth-seeded team of Tyra Abdalla and Pusateri knocked off the tournament’s third and second seeds before winning the first set from the top seeds in the final. Ostrowski and Alex Abdalla recovered for a 6-7 (4-7), 6-1, 6-1 victory. “They were playing amazing,” Alexa Abdalla said. “They were hitting some shots we’ve never seen before. “They deserved to win that first set.” Ostrowski and Alex Abdalla had lost just six games in six sets while advancing to the finals. They faced familiar players when the finals turned into an all-Abington Heights match for the second straight year. “We’re used to it because in practice, we always play each other,” said Ostrowski, who was part of the championship doubles team for the second straight year. “When it comes down to a competitive thing, it’s kind of tough.” Tyra Abdalla, Alexa’s sister, and Pusateri started Wednesday with their second straight upset. They beat second-seeded Annette Deutsch and Sarah

Rossi close to end of stellar career

Rich Rossi is wrapping up a standout career with the Sacred Heart football team. Rossi (Riverside and Milford Academy) started his career as a wide receiver for the Pioneers but has been the team’s starting tight end the past two seasons. This season, the 6-foot-2, 225-pound senior has caught 23 passes for 317 yards and four touchdowns in the first five games, averaging 13.8 yards per reception. One of the top receivers in the Northeast Conference, Rossi’s 132 career receptions are second in the Sacred Heart record books, his 1,502 receiving yards are fourth and his 12 touchdown receptions are sixth. “Richie is a real weapon in the passing game as a tight end because he runs like a wide receiver but usually matches up against linebackers,” offensive coordinator and tight end coach Kevin Bolis said. Rossi is also a team captain this season – elected by his

ON CAMPUS

BILL ARSENAULT teammates. “He’s not a vocal guy but he certainly leads by example,” Bolis said. “At 225, he is poundRossi for-pound the strongest kid on the team, yet he still manages to win every sprint at the end of practice by five yards. The bottom line is that I’ve never coached anyone that works harder than Rich Rossi and the odds are pretty good that I never will.”

total on rounds of 74, 81 and 71. He followed that up with a 220, good for a tie for 23rd place, in the Adams Cup in Newport, RI. He had the team’s best round (2-under-par 70) and followed that with rounds of 74 and 76. Ross was one of just three players on last year’s team to compete in every tournament for the Hawks, playing 31 competitive rounds. “I think that experience he got last season playing top competition all over the country has made Patrick a more complete player,” coach Pete Stankevich said. “He’s been undergoing some swing changes with his swing coach and that can take time to adjust to

and trust in competition. Therefore, his scores haven’t been as consistent as he would like.”

CLARKE AN IMPRESSIVE FROSH Freshman Justin Clarke (Lackawanna Trail) has jumped to the forefront as a cross country runner for the Keystone men’s team. Clarke has been the top finisher for the Giants in every meet thus far this fall. He has been named Keystone Athlete of the Week three times and was recently named Colonial States Athletic Conference Runner of the Week after finishing 13th (28.42 for 8k) at

the Cougar Classic. He captured his first college race when he won the Keystone Invitational recently in La Plume. “Justin has taken to the increased mileage that you need to do in order to be successful on the college level very well,” coach Michael Badway said. Badway feels that Clarke’s biggest need is to attack hills with more confidence. “For a guy who stands 5-2 and weighs 110 pounds soaking wet, he is as strong as an ox and has the biggest heart when competing out on the course,” the coach said. “He needs to carry that into the hills when running up them.”

ROSS ADJUSTING Sophomore Patrick Ross is a key performer on the Hartford men’s golf team. Ross (Dunmore) has been the Hawks second-best golfer this season. He finished tied for 31st place in the Hartford Hawks Invitational with a 226
