    Congratulations to the Montoursville Warriors. The 2025 baseball team had an unforgettable season. They finished with a 20-5 record: a PIAA District IV chip and a trip to the PIAA AAAA state finals. The Warriors never backed down. They had their opportunities but were nipped 5-4 by a mighty Indiana, PA squad with several Division

    Leaving Her Mark0

    For Alizabeth Schuler and her South Williamsport High School softball teammates, it was like Ground Hog Day all over again. As the state championship game ended, the Mounties fell to state powerhouse Neshannock for the second year in a row. Emotions overflowed, both from the players on the field and the legion of blue-clad fans

  • A Road Well Traveled0

    As the winter began its march toward spring, the 2025 South Williamsport High School softball schedule was still a work in progress. Some phone calls seeking games went unanswered; other possible opponents already had full 20-game schedules. The Mounties knew they were headed to Myrtle Beach for five tough opening games, but questions remained as

    My column was all but penned out in my mind; it was to be a celebration of Manager Tom O’Malley’s Lady Mountie softballers and Manager Jeremy Eck’s Montoursville Warrior baseballers. My hope was both won their way onto the cover as PIAA state champion. It was to be a lead-up for our June 25th cover,

    Props to the Montoursville Warriors on a fantastic season. They are heading to the 4A PIAA State Championship. The outcome will be determined by the time we go to print. But win or lose. These guys are rock stars. We are so dang proud. I have many ties to their coaches and players. I hope

  • Girls on the Run at the PIAA State Track & Field Championships0

    I know that I don’t delve into sports very often, but sometimes things just play out that way (pun intended). The fact that I regularly joke about not running unless I’m being chased makes this even more ironic. But let’s ignore all that and talk about Kylie Temple and the amazing year that she has

  • Transform Jersey Shore Area 2025, August 4-8.0

    Having grown up in the Upstate New York countryside and then raising my family in North Central Pennsylvania, I’ve realized that small-town people care for their own. Let’s be honest: if every time we’re in a jam, we wait for some big agency to come and bail us out, we might be waiting for a

    A few weeks ago, I had an opportunity to join a number of individuals from Northway Community Church as we traveled to the Black Mountains of North Carolina to help with recovery efforts, still very much needed, as a result of the Hurricane Helene that tore through that secluded area in Western Carolina in September

  • Gazette and Bulletin: May 9, 1945 – Solemnity Marks Program for V-E Day Here0

    Entirely lacking in the fanfare and excitement which greeted Armistice Day 1918, tempered with the realization that America still has a war with Japan to win and made solemn with the knowledge that hostilities have claimed the lives of hundreds of the city’s finest young men, Williamsport today marked V-E Day. More solemn than spirited,

  • A Hong Kong Thank You0

    In April of 2021, our church family gave us a very generous gift at a celebration of our twentieth year of ministry at Faith Wesleyan. It was given so we could “visit someone special to us.” We knew they meant our son, Reid, who lives in Hong Kong. Due to COVID-19, our trip was delayed.

    Perhaps the novelty has begun to waiver a bit once the reality of winning a state championship has sunk into the players and coaches of the Loyalsock Township state champion girls’ basketball team, but their accomplishment made school and District IV history and the smiles on their faces and pride in their hearts remain as

    United Way and Early Learning Launch Talking is Teaching0

    Most parents know that a child’s early years are formative and that their brain acts like a sponge. This is why early childhood education is critical in giving children a foundation for learning and setting them up for future social and academic success. According to the American Public University, a child’s early developmental stages bring

  • Pooches, Penguins & Promises: A Tribute to Naomi Watts0

    Your Webb critic has two favorite actresses. One — though she’s really before my time — is Golden Age golden-girl Myrna Loy. For years America’s favorite wife, Loy starred in the marvelous Thin Man movies, and was partly responsible for the bullet-riddled end of John Dillinger’s criminal career. (Look it up!) My other fave is

    It might not compare with the annual swallows return to Capistrano, which occurred March 19, just two days before the Mounties returned to Myrtle Beach, but the South Williamsport softball team’s return to the Grand Strand Tournament was made to prepare them for the demanding schedule awaiting them in the 2025 season. The team’s trip

  • “A Night at the Opera”: Repasz Band’s Spring Concert0

    Folks of a certain age might recall “Night at the Opera” as the name of a best-selling Queen record — the one with “Bohemian Rhapsody” on it. For those a bit older, that title also invokes the Marx Brothers’ classic comedy from 1935. But for Lycoming County music fans this spring, it means another exciting

    A reminder that these articles are submitted on Friday. So, I have no clue how the Lady Lancers faired in their PIAA AAA State Semifinal against IMHOTEP. My fingers are crossed, and I am hoping they find a way to advance to Hershey. That would be fantastic. But regardless of what happens — I am

  • Twice as Nice for Johnson & Harer0

    ‘Been there, done that’ is a common expression most often uttered by individuals who have accomplished a task and, sometimes out of boredom or disinterest, choose not to continue down the same path. Muncy’s Austin Johnson and Montgomery’s Brandt Harer have certainly mastered the four-word phrase, but it has only been the opponents they have

    To say that Zoe Furman is a force to be reckoned with on the girl’s wrestling scene would be an understatement. Thus far, the Montgomery junior has dominated and crushed every opponent she has faced this year, with all of her wins coming either by fall or technical fall. For those of you who didn’t

    Among the proverbs often kicked around is one traced back to Thomas Fuller in 1732 pertaining to the arrival of March weather. Referring to the month as coming in like a lion and departing as a lamb, it depicts a cold, windy, snowy start, eventually giving way to glimpses of spring’s coming beauty and warmth.

    It was a lesson learned long ago when my interest in journalism was in its infancy.
