” “We lost but the kids played a great game. I'm proud of them, I feel they minutes left in the game they were ahead 7-6 and we had a chance to go ahead with a two-point conversion.” “Balliet was off balance into the end zone but two of our kids collided when they were going for the ball and the try failed.” “That could have been the game if they connected,” continued Knights Coach Rich Gorgone. “But that dampened the kids some and “the Trojans took advantage to score two more in the final quarter.” “We lost and it’s no sour grapes but again the officiating was lousy. We've been robbed in a number of one-point games during the past two years. I guess it’s true if you're from the Back Mountain you can’t beat the refs.” L-L girls On Friday the Lake- Lehman Jr. High girls field hockey lost "to Wyoming Valley West 2-1."

By “My kids played a great defensive game and they were going for the win all the way.” A hard-fighting Lake- Lehman team was defeated but broke the Trojans shut-out streak at 18 quarters Saturday night at the Nanticoke stadium. The Trojans scored first early in the first quarter when Bob Bukowski ran the ball over from the 18- yard line and Rob Kozlowski kicked the extra point. The defense from both teams held for the second and third quarters and with only 10:13 in the game Knight Quarterback Bert Balliet took the ball in from the one-yard line. The pass for the two point conversion failed and the Knights trailed 7-6. The pass failure sparked the Trojans, who added two touchdowns before the end of the final quarter. A short punt by the Knights and a penalty against them put the Trojans on the Knights 10 yard line. They moved the ball to the four when John Janiczek went over for the touchdown. The kick for extra point was good. Less than a minute later, Tom Gill intercepted Balliet’s pass and took the ball over from the 20 yard line. Kozlowski kicked his third point of the game to give the Trojans the 21-6 game. A strong Nanticoke defense held the Knights to only four first downs. “Our real test is this Friday night,”’ said Gorgone. ‘‘GAR is the we don’t beat the Grenadiers, they walk away with the devision title. If we win, the worst that can happen is a three- way tie with Dallas, GAR, and our team.” “We know this is the game but they know it, too, And they will be in there giving all they have. We don’t underestimate them. We know what we have to do and we will be playing for the win.” “With Dallas losing it puts us in the driver’s seat. There is a time for every team and I believe this year is the time for our kids. Friday night will be the real test.” The Lake-Lehman dropped their record in the Cross Country League to 2- 4 last week by losing to the Wyoming Valley West Spartans and the Crestwood Comets.
