Prep Track: Late season swoon

In roughly two weeks, the YAIAA will host its league track meet at Dallastown. That means this week marks the beginning of business for most area track teams and athletes around the area. It’s a time of commitment and focus for teams and athletes on the border of placing at the league meet.

Prep Track: Musings from Saturday’s Arctic Blast Invitational

Some divine intervention needs to take place this weekend, because I’m not sure how much more of this from-the-clasps-of-Zeus weather I can take on Saturday mornings. True, I wasn’t there EARLY Saturday at Northern, when in fact the rain was really coming down like a greyhound. But I did, in fact, reach the Polar [...]

Prep Track: Golden Competition

HSB: The All-Area Teams

With our boys’ basketball All-Area teams official, it’s now time to offer the third team and honorable mention picks. I’ve been a proponent of creating an extra team for guy’s who deserve merit, but paper space has always been an issue and that’s one of the big reasons why we don’t have those guy’s [...]

College Athletics: Gettysburg Lacrosse

Prep Lacrosse: Gauging worth

Oh, the computer rankings system. Oh, how everyone loves a computer rankings system. It works in really every sport.
It’s no different in lacrosse, even in high school lacrosse, where LaxPower.com has developed a ranking system that determines the worth of teams all across the country.
In Pennsylvania, let’s see how our YAIAA team’s are [...]

Prep Track: Spring Grove-South Western boys’

Failed to mention this in my game story for yesterday’s Spring Grove-South Western track meet — it lacked any creativity — but every event winner on Tuesday was met with a big ovation from Tara Bahn over the loudspeaker at Spring Grove’s Papermakers Stadium.
“And with a new meet record!….”
Get it? Since both [...]
