He usually joins track practice af- ter baseball or works out alone. “I try to go to baseball prac- tice first and then get to track and field practice,” he said. “Sometimes I end up working on my throws alone. That's an advantage of being in an indi- vidual sport.” It's that individual aspect that really attracts Burkhardt to the competition of the throw- ing events. “Track is my fa- vorite sport,” said Burkhardt, who also plays football for the Knights. “I really enjoy the indi- vidual competition where you don’t have any teammates to depend on.” Sobocinski says Burkhardt’s presence has a huge impact on his track and field teammates. “It’s amazing to see the differ- ence he’s made in the team’s morale,” said Sobocinski. “He’s been a boost for the entire team. When he’s there, he gives everyone else a bit more confi- dence.” Burkhardt is currently preparing for the District II Track & Field championships which will be held Tuesday at North Pocono High School. He'll compete in the discus, javelin and shot put and is ex- pected to be among the top fin- ishers in all three events.

Josh Anderson wins first Casey Zalinsky Award Sophomore Josh Anderson has been awarded the first an- nual Casey Zalinsky Award, es- tablished in Casey's memory for the Dallas Senior High wrestler who went “above and beyond” to give up something for the team.

Anderson, who weighed only about 158 Ib., wrestled the 171 Ib. weight class for most of the year. While he had less than a .500 record, he finished a re- spectable sixth at districts. The award was presented by Sean McMahon, president of the club, and Bill and Shirley Zalinsky, Casey’s parents. The award will be given in future years and each recipient’s name will appear on a special trophy to be placed on display at the high school. Also a the dinner, Dan Nati- tus, the new Dallas High School head coach, and his as- sistant Matt Gingo were intro- duced.
