Our simulator is up and running. The putting green is set. It looks incredible. The Warrior Golf team room is almost finished. Much love to the Plankenhorns for their generous gift. We are so spoiled, and now the guys get to work on their games on campus. 24-7. Beautiful. Thanks to Lycoming College and our
On February 28th, the Lycoming County Beagle Club held its annual Rabbit Hunt. The weather finally broke, giving us a reprieve from bone-chilling cold and snow. With warm weather and a bit of a breeze, my dad and I were able to get the two beagles, Trigger and Radar, out for a run. It didn’t
The warm weather and the excitement of the World Baseball Classic have me in a baseball mood. I figured this week would be a good time to tip my Oilers hat to the Olean Oilers. They are gearing up for their first season in the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League. I was lucky enough to
Special thanks to those who gave me some love. I received several notes and thank-yous from readers about some recent columns. Most were nice. A few were not. No worries. Your feedback is amazing. Appreciate the support. You make this worthwhile. Fishing has always been my passion; my lovely bride would say I am somewhat
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
At the end of next week, spring will finally usher in warmer temperatures, and as the last of the remaining snow melts away (hopefully!), it’s the perfect time to get out and try your hand at hunting for shed antlers. If you have never looked for them before, you may well be in for a
“The End Marks the Beginning,” and the title of this piece pretty well sums up what happens in March when it comes to our fishing seasons. Our ice fishing is coming to a close, and our trout fishing season is soon to get underway. Yes, some fishermen are still getting out on the ice as
The Montoursville Hoops team is rolling. The Warriors have punched their ticket to the PIAA State playoffs. Coach Mike Mussina and his guys will face Lewisburg in the District 4 AAA Finals. I plan to go to shake some hands and kiss some babies. They are playing extremely well. Making the extra pass, hitting shots,
It was a typical Sunday morning as the pastor stood before the parishioners making the weekly church announcements. As he departed to join the choir for the formal entrance to begin the service, he suddenly reappeared, stating, “One more announcement, the hockey game is 1-1 after two periods.” The congregation nodded and smiled approvingly. The
The signs of spring are starting to appear. While the plump-breasted worm-eating robins are thought of by many folks as the harbinger of spring, often in my neck of the woods, the arrival of the eastern bluebirds to the yard and nearby trees is the first avian signal that spring is on the way. Over
I was talking to a buddy about ice fishing the other day, and he said he kept moving around on the lake, drilling over 30 holes trying to find some active fish. The fishing was generally poor until very late in the day when he finally began catching a decent number of fish. When he
This is a great time of year, kids. The basketball postseason is here. I will do my best these next few weeks to see my friends and their teams. Let’s get things rolling. Props to the South Williamsport Mounties. Joe Simon and his squad won the Mid Penn and tallied 20 wins. When did they
