LOCK HAVEN — If you try to measure success simply by podium trips at the Lock Haven High School Classic, you wouldn’t see the small bits of progress and steps in the right direction for Central Mountain’s track and field athletes. No, the Wildcats didn’t see anyone place in the ...
STATE COLLEGE — Penn State’s Koby Howard caught nine passes as a true freshman last year for a team-high 19.1 yards per reception. It was an encouraging start at a position screaming for big-play productivity. And yet, asked Tuesday what he learned most from 2025, Howard said: “A lot of patience.” You see, it took a coaching change for Howard to get on the field.

Bucktail keeping its opponents off of the scoreboard has now grown to four games, as their 12-0 win over Sullivan County (6-5) is their fourth consecutive shutout, outscoring their opponents 59-0 in that span. Sophomore pitcher Carrie Ditty was one walk away from throwing a perfect game, as a single free pass was her only blemish, striking out five and allowing her teammates to commit error free ball on ten other plays. The top of the Bucks lineup is loaded, so when the bottom of the order anchors an early rally, it is something that Bucktail surely likes to see as all eyes are ...
