6 days ago | gettysburgtimes.com | Tom Sixeas

Biglerville hung right with a strong District 3 Class 5A playoff bound Susquehannock side for four innings on Thursday. But the Warriors took control and put the game out of reach with an eight-run outburst in the top of the fifth, on their way to an 11-0 victory over the Canners in the YAIAA softball tournament quarterfinals at South Western. Susky (13-5) tacked on two more in the fourth as Emily Karst laced a single to left that plated Macie Minton and Jenna Lynch to boost the lead to 3-0.

The Name Game

When I think back to all the unfairness in my life, I often wonder why I never made it as a professional race car driver. A lack of talent, money, and opportunity head the list of reasons. My general mechanical ineptitude might have played a small role as well. kAmqFE x 36=:6G6 E96C6 :D 2 566A6C[ F?56C=J:?8 C62D@?

New Oxford's Holmes earn all-state nod

1 week ago | gettysburgtimes.com | Tom Sixeas

During the 2023-24 season, the New Oxford boys’ basketball team qualified for the postseason, but then graduated nine seniors and had just two players who returned that were in the team’s regular rotation. Included in those graduates were Brennan Holmes and Idriz Ahmetovic, who combined to average 31.7 ppg, so head coach Nathan Myers was going to need someone, or multiple someones, to step up to fill the void.

As the World of Outlaws makes its way into town next week, a pack of local drivers affectionately known as the Pennsylvania Posse with look to knock off the best of the best in the sprint car world.
