Two weeks ago, I wrote an article about Williamsport native Treyson Potts. The University of Minnesota stud running back had been tearing it up. This all came to an abrupt end. Potts suffered an undisclosed injury serious enough to keep him hospitalized for six days. The details were very hush-hush, and Coach PJ Fleck talked
Should Muncy ever decide to install a Jukebox at Stanley T. Schuyler Memorial Stadium, chances are the most often played tunes would be “Boys of Fall” and “We Are the Champions.” With two regular-season games to be played (Friday at Homer Center and next week hosting Hughesville), Sean Tetreault’s Indians are seeking to secure their
With the statewide archery deer season in full swing and the upcoming junior & senior license holder 3-day antlerless deer season running from Thursday, October 21 through Saturday, October 23 this year, some of Pennsylvania’s deer hunters may be enjoying early-season success. While many of today’s savvy deer hunters already have made plans as to
In my early archery hunting years, I was quick to hit the woods as soon as the season opened, and often, the weather was relatively warm, the foliage was still heavy, and the rut was not yet underway. I must admit, however, that over the years, my enthusiasm has waned a bit for those first
The numbers tell the tale when it comes to just how good black bear hunting opportunities are in Pennsylvania these days. In the six and a half decades between 1915 and 1979, Keystone State hunters typically harvested 398 bears a year. That jumps to 424 if you exclude the four years – 1934, 1970, 1977
Pennsylvania’s grouse season opens statewide on October 16 and runs to November 26; a second season runs from December 13-24. I’d be the first to admit that I am not a dedicated grouse hunter, but I have enjoyed walking the woods on a number of occasions with my 12-gauge at the ready. I’ve certainly missed
The statewide archery antlered and antlerless deer season began on October 2. As the season progresses and nears that “magical” time of the rut, bowhunters will be spending an increasing amount of time in the woods. While hunting from the ground or in a ground blind can be successful, most would agree that a tree
It is no secret. It has been stated in this space countless times. I am a baseball fan. Specifically, I’m a Pittsburgh Pirates and Boston Red Sox fan. Generally, I am a baseball fan. If there is a game going on in my vicinity, chances are, I will be watching it. We are in the
Fall is my favorite time of the year to play, and I will occasionally tee it up for a few good causes. The teams and organizations I represent vary, but I will almost never pay my share. Golf is way too expensive. I simply rely on my friends to pick up the tab. I sometimes
The arrival of fall has always presented me with a bit of a conundrum. As a fan of summer, I enjoy the warmer days with daylight lasting well into the early evening. Fall certainly has its better qualities with pleasant days, cool evenings and the annual display of color Mother Nature affords us. It is
The Spencers were in Happy Valley. We got an early start and somehow made it to State College. My lovely bride scored big at the very last minute. She is a proud 00 alum, and many of her roommates have season tickets. They are a great-looking bunch. Quite fun and full of spirit. These gals
The next full moon will occur on Wednesday, October 20, 2021, and is called “The Hunter’s Moon.” It is so named to indicate that it is time to go hunting in preparation for the cold winter months ahead. The Pennsylvania archery deer season began on Saturday, October 2. Later this month, various small game seasons
