Hite is Dallas coach wideout, while senior Randy Moyer and junior Floyd McRoy will play wingback. “Morris is a fine receiver,” said Gorgone. “He fits the mold of outstanding receivers that we've had here the last several years. Moyer and McRoy give us a couple of options. They are all talented receivers.” While the offensive skill positions lack a great deal of experience, the Knights have five returning starters on the offen- sive line. Junior Jarrod Dalley will start at center while senior Brock Raspen, last year's starting center, moves to guard. Carl Sgarlat returns at guard and Bob Gallagher On special teams, Seth Moyer will handle the extra point chores while Brock Raspen will be the team’s punter. After opening the season at home against Riverside, the Knights will focus their attention on the Wyoming Valley Conference Division II where they hope to challenge for the league title. “Our first goal every year is to compete for the league title,” said Gorgone, who's teams have made the playoffs three of the last four years and have enjoyed 11 win- ning seasons in the last 12 years. “The league is one of the toughest in the state, but this team is capable of playing with cern is our youth at quarterback and the fact that we have a new backfield. But, we have some exceptional athletes there. The only thing they lack is experience.” “The league is one of the toughest in the state, but this team is capable of playing with anybody.” Rich Gorgone Lake-Lehman coach monthly fees, and no minimum balance.
