  • SCHOLASTIC NOTEBOOK: Mausser continues run success at little Jamestown

    IT’S THE small school that boasts a big heart. What speed is to football, hand-eye coordination is to baseball and core strength is to hockey, you have to have heart to compete in cross country.
    And when it comes to developing harriers with heart, there’s none in Mercer County better than Jamestown High.
    During the recent District 10 Championships the Muskies’ Derrick Mausser became the tiny hamlet’s latest harrier to qualify for the annual PIAA Championships.

    MOST NFL TEAMS look forward to their “bye week.” The banged-up Pittsburgh Steelers can use one this weekend.
    The Steelers showed their resolve when they defeated Minnesota last week, turning key turnovers into victory. While Pittsburgh appears to be the luckiest team in the league, returning a fumble and interception for touchdowns, a lot of it has to do with their great ability to take advantage of their opportunities.

  • D-10 Cross Country Championships: WM girls capture Class AA team title; Kildoo defends AAA crown
    Some of the great nicknames in team sports include the Mud Hens and Mud Dawgs. So, perhaps now the appropriate moniker for West Middlesex High’s harriers should be “Mudders.”

    ä Sharpsville 42, Linesville 7 — At McCracken Field in Sharpsville, the Blue Devils (6-2, 7-2) secured the No. 2 spot behind Farrell in Region 1-A with a victory over the Lions (5-2, 7-2).

  • Outdoors: Muzzleloader season brings buck sightings
    Four of us traveled up to Camp F-Troop last week for the fall muzzleloader deer season, and the trip was a great success. We climbed mountains, visited our favorite old boulders from hunting seasons past and enjoyed crisp mornings and sunny afternoons in the colorful autumn forest.

  • Mercer rolls past WM to earn 5th straight victory
    Thanks to a huge 42-7 win Friday night at West Middlesex, coach Pat McClearn’s Mercer High Mustangs now have just one team standing between them and a berth in the District 10 Class A playoffs — backyard rival Lakeview.
