    Jim Webb

    Before I move forward with this week’s column, I want to clarify something that I’ve heard a few times over the years and again most recently. There are no cryptic messages within my column. To the person over last week’s column that thinks I communicate with Republicans in this manner while trying to undermine Democrats,

  • Crowning Champions in March0

    Scott Lowery

    In a well-known metaphor dating back to 1879, the phrase ‘there’s light at the end of the tunnel’ is often used to describe the end of disappointing times. Unashamedly, repeating its usage today, the same can be said as March’s arrival has brought with it increasing daylight, signs of approaching spring, the beginning of the

    Over the years, Jean has made the same remark many times. “Aren’t we lucky we have made so many friends and had so many good times through the involvement we’ve had with sports?” Each time, I shake my head in agreement. Sports have been a constant in my life since I was a youngster, and

    I recently had the opportunity to touch base with Coach Ron Insinger. We had a fun chat before a summer league game on Monday. I wrote a great piece on 50 years of the CI CAMP, but… Steph just called and asked for my stuff. Wait? What? My email never went. My article was gone.

    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

    Even the more casual viewers of sports, especially at the college and professional levels, have noticed the increasing amount of ‘bling’ hanging around the necks of players.

    It wouldn’t be a stretch to think that anyone who has played basketball with a sense of proficiency hasn’t at one time or another conjured up thoughts about becoming a 1,000-point scorer, hearing the roar of the crowd, and having his/her name go up on the gymnasium wall. Visit any area gym, and you’ll find
