Dec. 5 Abington Heights School
District Reorganization meeting,
President Cathy Ann Hardaway

Hardaway, who was sworn in

were absent and Hardaway ab-
stained. Acker was approved by

I want to thank everyone for
their confidence in Warren and
myself, but I must say the confi-

collegial attitude we have and
the relationships that we have
with each other make it work.

COMMUNITY
CALENDAR
In the Dec. 5 edition, an
article about the new fire
chief in Chinchilla mentioned
incorrectly stated that past
chief Keith Grierson stepped
down. Grierson completed his
second term as chief in Sep-
tember and did not elect to
run for a third term due to a
relocation for work.
In a story Dec. 5, Susan J.
Colbassani, should have been
listed as a VMD. The Veter-
inariae Medicinae Doctoris
(VMD) degree is only award-
ed to veterinarians by the
University of Pennsylvania, in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
USA. It is equivalent to the
Doctor of Veterinary Med-
icine (DVM) degree awarded
by all other US veterinary
schools.
We regret the errors.
EDITORS NOTE
Speaking on behalf of the
Lackawanna County Associ-
ation of Boroughs and
S.T.O.P. (Scranton Taxing Our
People), the committee orga-
nized by the association to
oppose the Scranton commu-
ter tax, Mayor Alex Chelik of
Mayfield announced a fun-
draising drive to raise money
for the litigation expenses
connected with an upcoming
hearingon the Citys request to
assess and collect a 1 percent
surcharge on the income or
wage tax paid by commuters
beginning January 1, 2013.
We have engaged an at-
torney with past experience in
this type of litigation and we
have costs for his services as
well as to reproduce exhibits
for the hearing, Chelik said,
so we need your help to meet
our costs.
Non-residents who work in
the city now have a 1 percent
wage tax withheld from their
earnings and paid to Scranton,
which collects and forwards
the tax to their home munici-
palities. The wage tax is then
usually divided between the
home municipality and the
local school district.
The city filed a petition to
obtain court approval to col-
lect and keep an additional 1
percent tax from non-resi-
dents who work in Scranton.
The tax surcharge will double
the amount of local income
taxes being paid by those
persons from1 to 2 percent.
As a financially distressed
city, Scranton can ask to re-
new the tax surcharge on non-
residents on a yearly basis.
The wage taxes assessed on
city residents are not being
increased.
Each municipality that has
not already done so is request-
ed by S.T.O.P to donate $200
to begin the legal process. The
committee is also asking com-
muters to participate, and
individual donations can be
made by check payable to
LCAB Stop Scranton and
mailed to 739 Penn Avenue,
Mayfield, PA, 18433. Dona-
tions can also be made online
at stopscranton.com.

L
eah Ducato Rudolph,
Abington Communi-
ty Library Director
and Ken Rudolph, MD, met
in1979 as a result of a date
arranged by their parents.
Ken was home in the Pitts-
burgh suburbs on a break
fromhis residency program
in Internal Medicine in
Scranton. Leah was work-
ing and living in Pittsburgh.
Our parents, who were
friends, had suggested we
meet as we seemed to have a
lot in common, said Leah.
Actually, I never wanted
my mother to fix me up
because, what could my
mother know? Why would
my mother fix me up with
somebody that I would like?
What does she know? said
Ken. Well, prior to Leah
she fixed me up with anoth-
er girl she met in Pittsburgh.
Momcalled to say, I met
this girl. She lives in Phila-
delphia and I met her in
Hornes. It turned out the
girl was a model fromLan-
cme Cosmetics and beauti-
ful. I thought, My mother
picked this woman? So,
when she told me she had
this other girl in mind for
me to meet, I thought,
Well, she didnt do so badly
the first time. Maybe Ill
check it out again.
One criterion was, ac-
cording to Ken, She had to
be Italian. My mother was
Italian. And if the girl
wasnt Italian, she wasnt
good.
Leah Ducato, dating
someone and not looking to
meet anyone new, said her
father phoned to let her
knowKen would be calling
for a blind date.
My mother started the
conversation. She said,
Wed like you to go out
with Kenny Rudolph. Hes
going to be home for vaca-
tion and you should go out
with him, or hang out with
himwhile hes home, said
Leah.
I really didnt want to
bother, but my dad got on
the phone and said, Look!
You dont have to marry the
guy; just go out with him
one time. Do it as a favor to
me. My father offered to
give me his Hornes credit
card so I could buy a new
dress to wear on the date. I
went shopping right after
work. I got on a bus and
went downtown. I looked all
around Hornes for a new
dress and ended up with a
cheap, vinyl purse, she said
with a laugh.
She kept purse to this day.
I didnt even get a show-
er or wash my hair for this
date because I was shopping
for a dress.
Their first date took place
at a Polynesian Restaurant
in Monroeville in Septem-
ber 1979.
Leah said her first im-
pression of Ken was
shock.
I was shocked howmuch
he resembled one of my
favorite Pittsburgh Steelers:
Rocky Bleier.
She recalled details of the
date: I was most impressed
that Ken got chosen out of
the crowd to learn howto
hula on stage. I dont think
hell ever do something like
that again, but he was a
good sport that night.
The words Ken used to
describe his first impression
of Leah are genuine, per-
sonable and a believable
person.
Afewdays after their first
date, he suggested they go
out again.
She politely declined,
Ken said. She told me, I
thought I told you to never
call me again. I thought,
Did I miss something here?
I must have missed the
boat.
He added, Then a week
or two later, my mother said,
Leah and her sister, Lisa
Ducato Ross, are going to
NewYork and they won-
dered if they could stop by
Scranton to see you. I
thought, Wait a minute.
She blewme off. Now
theyre coming up to visit
me. I dont understand this.
In the meantime, she broke
up with her boyfriend.
In early December 1979,
they had their second date
and the rest, as they say, is
history, said Leah.
She shared her backstory.
My parents liked him. Its
infinitely easier to date
somebody your parents
like. Just fromthat one
date, we really did have a
very nice time. He was a lot
of fun. He was a gentleman.
I thought, I really would
like to get to knowhim
better. This would be a mis-
sed opportunity if I didnt.
So, Leah asked her sister
Lisa if she would drive to
Scranton with her and
planned to tell Ken they
were passing by on their
way to NewYork. Lisa
shopped while Ken and
Leah spent time together.
Sometime early in the
NewYear 1980, Ken was
home in the Pittsburgh
suburbs and took Leah back
to Scranton for a fewdays.
In the car, I asked him
what his parents had to say
about our budding relation-
ship. He said they wanted to
knowwhat his intentions
were. I wondered as well,
and said, So, what did you
tell them? He said, I told
themwe were going to get
married.
She was shocked again.
Astounded, I told him
hed better ask my father
first.
They were officially en-
gaged around Valentines
Day when Ken presented
Leah with an engagement
ring and a single red rose,
which Leah preserved.
Six months later on July
5, 1980 they were married at
Kens Presbyterian Church
in the Pittsburgh suburb of
Oakmont. The hot summer
day at fell in the span be-
tween Kens graduation
froma medical residency
and the start of his practice.
Their reception was held at
the Churchill Valley Coun-
try Club amidst the Fourth
of July holiday, complete
with fireworks.
More than 32 years later,
they reside in Clarks Sum-
mit where they raised three
children: Dania Rudolph
Edwards, 29, Julia, 27 and
Michael, 25.
AMyers-Briggs-type
personality test they took
years ago after they were
married, typed themas
nearly identical with the
exception that Ken is a
Thinker and Ima Feel-
er, said Leah. Their com-
mon interests include ser-
vice to their church, golf
and watching sporting
events.
The moral of their story,
according to Leah: There is
definitely something to be
said about taking your par-
ents advice and arranged
marriagesSimply meet-
ing someone with a similar
background and interests
can go a long way in estab-
lishing the basis of a match
made in heaven.
Isnt It Romantic?

Gerrie Fitzgerald Carey,
Clarks Summit Borough coun-
cilwoman, said she was born a
Democrat.
Carey recently received the
Pennsylvania Federation of
Democratic Women Outstand-
ing Elected Democratic Wom-
an 2012 award Nov. 18 at a
luncheon in Camp Hill.
Susan Rutt, Chair, presented
Carey with the award. The
organization, based in Harris-
burg, is comprised of 18 dis-
tricts throughout the state.
According to the Pennsylva-
nia Federation of Democratic
Women website, Each year,
the federation honors an out-
standing Democratic woman
elected to public office in
Pennsylvania. The honorees
have made significant contri-
butions to the Commonwealth,
have supported the Federation
and the Democratic Party and
have consistently aided other
women seeking elective office.
Outstanding Elected Demo-
cratic Women are selected
from the Federations regions
throughout the State and Hon-
orees are selected by the local
Democratic Womens Clubs in
each region. Carey belongs to
the Region 4/Northeast Dis-
trict.
Once a year they will honor
someone from each district for
their democratic achievements.
I was selected based on my
work with the Lackawanna
County Federation of Demo-
cratic Women, Carey said.
She was also honored as
Democratic Woman of the
Year in 2011. On hand to
watch their mother accept the
award were her children: Mary
Ellen Berry, Colleen Berry and
Rick Carey. Her son, Hutch,
was unable to attend.
Carey serves on the Demo-
cratic Executive Committee,
which she said is actually the
heart and soul of the Demo-
cratic Party as far as endorsing
candidates and also supporting
the Democratic slates. She is
active in the Lazareth and
Eucharistic Ministries of Our
Lady of the Snows church and
the Society of Irish Women.
She also recently joined the
Abington Heights Civic
League and is on the board of
Clarks Summit State Hospital.
When asked how she feels
about being a Democratic
woman, Carey said, I have
learned from my parents, to
respect my faith and party.
Both feeding off ones con-
science. Women have some
special God -given gifts that
when put into place make
them good candidates who will
work with sincerity and integ-
rity for all the people.
She is married to Bill Carey.

CLARKS SUMMIT- The National
Honor Society at Abington Heights
High School recently hosted their
first book swap.
Students were asked to bring books
they wished to donate to their lunch
period where they received a ticket
for each book. They were invited to
donate any type and as many books
as they wanted. Then a week later
students traded their tickets for
books. Abington Heights National
Honor Society President, Amelia
Oon, pitched the idea of the book
swap. The goal: to get students more
involved and reading more, as well as
to donate as many books as possible
to the Abington Community Library.
All books remaining were donated to
the Abington Community Library.
There are a decent amount of
books, but we are looking for more.
Its a good opportunity for free
books, said Kasey Feather, National
Honor Society member.
The National Honor Society at
Abington Heights High School also
actively participates in other events
for their school and community.
Events have included organizing craft
fairs, wrapping gifts and serving as
ushers for concerts and musicals.
The National Honor Society is a
high school academic society recog-
nized nationwide. Students are able
to be inducted into the National Hon-
or Society during their sophomore,
junior or senior year of high school if
they meet the requirement of having
a cumulative scholastic average of 85
percent, B, 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale), or
the equivalent standard of excellence.
Mrs. Antonio and Mrs. Lovett

years, and I have never seen so
many students and staff help-
ing out in so many wonderful
ways during the Thanksgiving
preparation as I have witnessed

of the students and staff mem-
bers pitched in whenever and
wherever they were needed.
Everyone worked cooperative-

NO SMALL DISTRACTION
Cell phones are seemingly everywhere, which is a good thing as long as the
user is not simultaneously driving. Chances are that you have heard all the
statistics about how distracted drivers using cell phones pose a serious safety
risk. Driving takes full concentration. Even if driers use hands-free devices,
parts of their minds are elsewhere, which compromises driving safety. With
this in mind, if you fnd yourself in an accident involving a distracted driver,
take careful not of it and enlist the statement of witnesses who can testify
to the fact. The police report may also indicate that the person at fault was
texting or talking on a mobile phone, which hurts his or her case.
If you have been in a car accident due to a distracted driver, you need
to call Amil M. Minora. I have spent years dealing with all aspects of
personal injury law and I will work hard to make sure that you get the
money you deserve. And remember, I am happy to take these cases on a
contingency basis, which means you dont pay until you win. Call (570)
961-1616 to make an appointment today. My address is 700 Vine St.,
Scranton. Im here to help.
www.minorakrowiak.com
HINT: If a case were to go to court, the plaintiff would be allowed to see
the defendants cell phone records to substantiate that he or she was
talking/texting at the time of the accident.

CLARKS GREEN- The
Abington Council of Govern-
ments held its monthly meet-
ing, Dec. 6 at the Clarks
Green Borough Building.
Len Gorney of the South
Abington Planning Commis-
sion announced that due to
sewer work, the South Abing-
ton Community Park will be
closed from approximately
mid-June until mid-August.
He explained that the project
entails replacing pumping
stations with gravity feed
lines, as well as other repairs.
The walking trail will be
open, however the parking lot
will not be available. He
stated that the recreation
board is, using this as an
opportunity to see what im-
provements can be made. Itll
be back better than ever.
Bill White, the Waverly
Township Manger mentioned
that they are having difficulty
adding the words Waverly
Township to their addresses
through the Post Office to
enable emergency responders
to better find residents. Sever-
al Waverly Township residents
currently have Clarks Summit
mailing addresses. In Clarks
Summit news, Herman John-
son reported that plans were
unveiled for a proposed new
CVS store where the Valero
gas station currently is locat-
ed. The CVS on 100 South
Abington Rd. will close and
move to the new location, he
said.

asket making, watercol-
ors, Ukrainian egg paint-
ing, called pysanky, are
among one studio own-
ers favorite ways of
teaching art to young
people.
And nowshell
have more space
to do it.
Diana Lombar-
di, owner of The
Abington Art
Studio has an-
nounced that the
teaching studio is
moving to a
larger location in
downtown
Clarks Summit at
the beginning of
the newyear.
The newlocation, at 208 Depot St., is
five times larger than the studios cur-
rent location on Colburn Avenue.
Weve really outgrown our old
space, said Lombardi, the studios
owner.
With a larger space comes larger
assortment of projects and classes.
I will be offering some pottery
classes, which I havent done in the
past, Lombardi said, adding that she is
going to install a pottery wheel and a
kiln in the newlocation.
Lombardi, a Clarks Summit-based
artist who has taught art in schools for
more than15 years, is the studios head
instructor and works on teaching basic
art skills to children in a safe, relaxing
environment.
In addition to its lineup of classes, the
art studio will host art-themed birthday
parties. For example, children
can stage a Victorian tea
party or learn howto
drawsuper heroes
with a cartooning-
themed party, she
said.
The studio, which
opened in June of
this year, will hold
classes and private
lessons for children of
all ages with an empha-
sis on young children.
Primarily I teach children ages four
and up for art lessons. We are a chil-
drens art school, Lombardi said, not-
ing that in a year she hopes to expand to
all age groups.
The art teacher said the studios niche
is sustainable art. During classes, Lom-
bardi shows her students howto repur-
pose objects ordinarily considered re-
fuse into art.
In the past, Lombardis students have
converted old bottle caps into vibrant
mosaics, which adorned the
exterior of her studio. In
the newspace, deco-
rative lights made of
water bottles fash-
ioned into flowers
hang in the front
window.
All of my window
displays are going to
be recycled, she said.
Although the school
primarily caters to chil-
dren, it holds a ladies
night out, where women can
gather and relax while creating
some art. Another program,
Mommy &Me, is designed for
children ages 2-5 and their moth-

D. B. Stovall, a Washington,
D.C. area native, bought his first
camera at age 10: a Rosko pur-
chased for 88 cents at Murphys
Five and Dime. Quickly moving
on to various Instamatics, an old
Leica D, and finally Japanese
35mmSLRs, Stovall explored
different aspects of black and
white photography, becoming
adept at all kinds of darkroom
work by the time he entered high
school. He was introduced to the
viewcamera at the Rochester
Institute of Technology in the
early1970s and eventually
moved on to large format color
transparency in a realism-based
vision, which he still practices
today.
Camerawork Gallery, located

A number of the new fic-
tion titles for adults just add-
ed to the collection at the
Abington Community Li-
brary are in a Trade Paper-
back format (larger than the
usual paperback) rather than
hardcover. Some that stand
out are the following:
Bone River, by Megan
Chance. In the mid-19th cen-
tury, on her 37th birthday,
Leonie Russell discovers a
mummy buried in a river-
bank near her home in the
Washington Territory. As she
searches for clues to the
mummys origins, she begins
to feel a strangely mystical
connection to it.
The Constellations, by
Kevin Cunningham. Wid-
owed and broke, Roy Conlon
finds that his eight-year-old
son Eric is suddenly a mys-
tery to him. The boy has
become aware of a sky
awhirl with stars and of the
universe outside his small
Midwestern town and his
fathers efforts to hold on to
his son are threatened by
weakness, guilt and his par-
ticipation in a foolish crime.
The Hollow Man, by
Oliver Harris. Detective Nick
Belsey has decided he wants
out, out of London and out
of the endless complications
of his life, when he discovers
a new identity and a fortune
waiting for the taking. Un-
fortunately for Belsey, a dead
rich man with suspicious
financial holdings is bound
to have some dangerous ties
and a few ruthless enemies,
not to mention the interest of
Scotland Yard.
The Damage, by Howard
Linskey. David Blake never
wanted to be boss, the man
in control of everything in
the city of Newcastle, but
when someone tries to kill
him, he struggles to stay in
control, in a race against
time to find his potential
assassin.
Souls Gate, by James L.
Rubart. Four warriors with
the potential to change the
world gather at a secluded
and mysterious ranch deep in
the mountains of Colorado,
where they will learn from
Reece Roth to see the spiri-
tual world around them with
stunning clarity and how to
step into the supernatural.

ART
Art teacher Diane Lombardi
said the studios niche is sustain-
able art.
Stovall started entering
juried exhibitions at the begin-
ning of 2008 and since then
has been in almost 100 juried
group and solo shows. The
jurors that have selected his
work are curators and art
professionals frominstitutions
such as the GuggenheimMu-
seum, Corcoran Museumof
Art, NYMuseumof Modern
Art, San Francisco MOMA,
Philadelphia Museumof Art,
and many other prestigious
venues.
Although I call my work
American Vernacular, he
said in an artist statement, it
is important that it be under-
stood what it is and what it
isnt. Although some have
termed it old buildings, that
is selling it far too short. I do
tend to look for older build-
ings, but that is more due to
the fact that older structures,
like whiskey or cognac aging
in a barrel, acquire a certain
color and flavor after many
years. This is enhanced by the
various hands that have put
their own touches onto the
structure, kind of like an artist
on a canvas over a long peri-
od.
I try to capture that sense,
he continued, as well as high-
light the kind of things that
others tend to overlook. The
viewcamera is a perfect tool
for this work. It enforces a
kind of discipline on my vi-
sion, what I call a slower way
of seeing that highlights the
kind of sharp detail that would
otherwise be lost in the cam-
ouflage of the everyday. What
it is definitely not is nostalgia
or Americana. I leave that
type of work to those who are
better at it than I.

NEWTON TWP - Theres
nothing like a few Christmas
melodies to get the commu-
nity in the holiday spirit.
Country Alliance Church
will host a Christmas per-
formance in the auditorium,
where not only the chorus
will sing but the audience as
well. The Community Christ-
mas Sing-a-Long will be
held Dec. 16 at 6 p.m.
Four members of the Wor-
ship Team (Rita Kircher,
Katie Ezdebski, Rita Mor-
gantini and leader Dom De-
gilio) will lead singing both
traditional and newer Christ-
mas songs, which emphasize
worship to God. They will
also take requests. Handout
booklets with lyrics will be
given to the audience.
We are hoping to meet
and greet old friends and
new friends, said Joyce De-
gilio.
This church, 14014 Or-
chard Drive, Newton Twp.
organized the event to bring
back the old times when
churches hosted a sing-a-
long on Christmas Eve and
people took time to sing
carols to their neighbors.
That should encourage
the community to get in-
volved and worship and en-
joy the holidays with us,
said Katie Ezdebski. Thats
one of our goals - to reach
out to the community and
meet the neighbors.
Also during the sing-a-
long, Pastor Don Morgantini
will speak an inspirational
message, which is a short
meditation about Gods love.
Thats why Jesus came,
said Morgantini. Its a rea-
son for Christmas. To show
Gods love and bring the gift
of eternal life through for-
giveness.
The church is bringing
back reading to the commu-
nity like they did 50 years
ago, said church member
Joyce Degilio.
Light refreshments, in-
cluding Christmas cookies,
cake and punch, will be
served.
Were looking for a good
turnout and a good, old-fash-
ioned sing-a-long, said
Brother Bob Swigart.

November was a very
significant month for Troop
160. Nov. 10 was Troop
160s annual French Toast
Breakfast. This is Troop
160s only fundraiser for the
year and the whole commu-
nity was invited to the
breakfast. The breakfast was
a buffet that included
French toast, ham, bacon,
eggs and drinks. Adult tick-
ets were $7 and child tickets
were $3. The breakfast is
completely operated by the
scouts with some adult help.
We served food, waited ta-
bles and washed dishes. The
breakfast was a huge suc-
cess and more than 500 peo-
ple came. Troop 160 has
been performing the break-
fast for several years and is
thankful for all of the dona-
tions that they received and
the people that came. With-
out them the fundraiser
would not be possible. This
year, there was also a bake
sale, selling several baked
goods. The proceeds of the
sales went to Hurricane
Sandy relief.
This month, a group of 16
scouts and leaders went
camping at Worlds End
State Park Nov. 17 and 18.
Worlds End State Park is in
Forksville, Pa. near Eagles
Mere. The scouts hiked sev-
eral trails in the park to dif-
ferent vistas. On the trip, the
scouts cooked all of their
meals. The scouts had melt-
ed ham and cheese sand-
wiches for lunch. For dinner,
they cooked pasta with
French bread. That night, we
pitched our tents and slept.
The temperature dropped
into the low 20s, but every-
one was prepared. The next
morning, the scouts enjoyed
pancakes for breakfast. Al-
though some of the trails
were steep and tiresome, we
had a lot of fun.
At the French Toast Break-
fast, we put in a lot of work
to make sure everything runs
smoothly. The scouts spend
hours selling the tickets,
setting up the night before
and operating the breakfast.
I would like to thank them
for their efforts. Remember
a scout is helpful.

I think the message of Chanukah is
one that is something universal and just
like the Menorah is something we place
in the window and it shines into the
street, in the same way, I thought for
this year it would be a great way to
celebrate Chanukah by offering some-
thing in a very public space, where peo-
ple from all walks of life come together,
and for kids to make it personal, said
Rabbi Benny Rapoport.
They (the children) are expressing
their own creativity and making their
observance something theyve done,
which is very, very important to person-
alize the celebration. Home Depot does
workshops all the time but this is the
first Menorah Workshop and were
happy to partner with them. I think its
important to find a new and innovative
excitement in the observance of Chanu-
kah.
Jeffrey Kaneski, Home Depot oper-
ations manager, said Home Depot
provided the materials for the workshop.
Rabbi Benny brought a template to
Home Depot and we made 50 Men-
orahs out of that. I think its great and
its something that brings the communi-
ty together

Dalton resident Lori E.
Swanchak, Ph.D., PA-C, the
interim program director at
Marywood University Phy-
sician Assistant Program,
was awarded the Physician
Assistant Education Associ-
ations (PAEA) Article of
the Year Award for The
Effect of Early Geriatric
Exposure upon Career De-
velopment and Subspecialty
Selection Among Physician
Assistant Students, publish-
ed in the Journal of Physi-
cian Assistant Education
(JPAE). The award, which
was presented at PAEAs
recent Education Forum in
Seattle, recognizes physician
assistant (PA) educators who
are publishing articles about
the training and education
of future generations of PAs.
Criteria for the award in-
clude having an impact on
the PA profession with im-
plications for workforce and
interdisciplinary training/
education.
The Effect of Early Ge-
riatric Exposure upon Ca-
reer Development and Sub-
specialty Selection Among
Physician Assistant Stu-
dents focuses on the need
for geriatric care as the pop-
ulation of elderly patients
grows. Swanchaks article
reflects the current climate
of PA education, as there are
not enough practitioners in
geriatric medical care.
According to her research,
students at five Pennsylva-
nia PA programs expressed
little interest in both ge-
riatric coursework and clin-
ical exposure. She con-
cludes that the current expo-
sure to elderly patients may
be inadequate to influence
PA students, and that a mul-
tifaceted approach may re-
sult in an increase of PA
students in geriatric med-
icine.
In her letter of nomina-
tion, Swanchak explained
that this article was impor-
tant to the future direction
of PA education.
Following publication,
this article generated much
dialogue among PA educa-
tors, which resulted in dis-
cussions relating to how
various PA programs are
attempting to foster interest
in primary care and geriatric
medicine, said Swanchak.
The article has identified an
area that needs further
study, assessment and atten-
tion.

DUNMORE- In a game
that featured two of the top
high school teams in their
respective classifications in
Pennsylvania, Abington
Heights defeated Holy Cross,
55-30, in a non-league con-
test.
Comets junior guard JC
Showled all scorers with 22
points, while adding four
rebounds, four assists and
four steals.
We didnt execute as well
as we would have liked at
times, but were real happy to
come in here and get a win by
this margin against that
team, Showsaid. We did a
really good job defensively,
got a fewsteals and got in
transition.
Showhit two 3-pointers
and Kevin Elwell added
another three in the first
quarter as Abington Heights
took a17-8 lead. Jason Bam-
ford and TJ Murray also
scored a bucket in the quarter
to contribute to the balance
offensive effort.
Thats what were trying
to do, Abington Heights
head coach Ken Bianchi said.
We want to play hard, play
as a team, and have fun. If we
do those three things, the
score will take care of itself.
According to Bianchi, the
quick start was important for
the teams confidence, espe-
cially early in the season.
You dont knowhow
youre going to react if you
fall behind big, he said. Its
always tough to play here. It
was nice to get out to a good
lead early on.
The Comets held the Cru-
saders to four second quarter
points, and led 30-12 at the
half. Holy Cross, which en-
tered the game as the top
ranked teamin the Patriot
News Class AAboys basket-
ball rankings, was playing
without its starting point
guard Connor Callejas, who
missed the game due to an
ankle injury.
I thought our defensive
effort was good, Bianchi
said. You have to realize that
if they had Connor it would
be a different story, but with

Scranton Prep will still have
some of the best individual
swimmers in the Wyoming
Valley Conference and District
2 on the boys side and the en-
tire state on the girls side but
small rosters will make it diffi-
cult for the Cavaliers and Clas-
sics as a teamin dual competi-
tion.
Junior Mia Nonnenberg, a
four-event state medalist, and
Katie Voitik, who joined Non-
nenberg on two state-medal
relay teams, return for the
Classics.
All five returnees on the
boys roster finished in the top
three in District 2 Class AAin
at least one event, but they are
joined by just one teammate.
After finishing third in the
WVCNorthern Division and
second in District 2 Class AA,
the Scranton Prep girls fin-
ished fifth at the Pennsylvania
Interscholastic Athletic Asso-
ciation Class AAchampion-
ships.
The Classics will again be
better equipped for big meets,
but they lost two of the four
swimmers that allowed themto
be a force on the state level in
relays. Nonnenberg and Voitik
were joined by Rebekah Cam-
po and Maria Telincho on the
200 medley relay teamthat was
second in the state and the 200
freestyle relay teamthat was
fourth in the state after winning
district titles. Campo, who was
the state100 breaststroke
champion, and Telincho, both
graduated.
We had two big losses and
we really didnt replace them,
said Scranton Prep coach Joe
Thier, who lists just 10 swim-
mers on his girls roster.
Nonnenberg qualified for the
USASwimming Junior Na-
tionals in the summer and
should rank as one of the states
top all-around female swim-
mers. She was second in the
state meet in the 200 individual
medley and third in the 500
freestyle after setting District 2
records in each event.
She basically can go any-
where, as well as Katie, Thier
said. Well put her wherever
we need her.
Shes got a lot of options.
Voitik won the district title in
the 200 freestyle and finished
second to Nonnenberg in the
500.
In a season-opening loss to
Wyoming Valley West Friday,
Nonnenberg won both the100
butterfly and100 backstroke
while Voitik won the 200 Indi-
vidual Medley and100 frees-
tyle. They teamed with Janel
Harach and Abby Dempsey for
a medley relay win.

eight experienced girls, with
six underclassmen.

system
spread across the events, creating a
balanced lineup.
Theyre working hard and that
experience is well-dispersed, coach
Mary Gromelski said. The kids are
strong where we can shuffle around
and fill in the lineup as needed.
Abington Heights is being tested
early. The Lady Comets opened with
a110-66 win over Dallas Friday then
lost at Hazleton Area, the other Class
AAAco-champion fromlast season,
104-79 Monday night.
The crossover schedule, which
does not count toward the division
title, continues with a Thursday meet
against defending Southern Division
champion Holy Redeemer.
We have some tough ones early,
Gromelski said. Swimming against
fast people helps you get faster
times.
Sophomore Sydney Gualtieri won
a regional title in the100 breaststroke
and was part of two championship
relay teams.
Rachel Smertz, another sopho-
more, led the teamin the opening
win over Dallas with two individual
and two relay wins. Smertz was on
the regional championship 200 me-
dley relay teamwhile adding, a silver
and two bronze medals.
Senior Kasey Feather, juniors Kris-
ta Brickel, Annie Gromelski and
Chloe Sweeney and sophomore Mor-
gan Muller also finished in the top
six in the regional meet in at least one
event last season.
Muller was on first- and second-
place relay teams and finished in the
top seven in two individual events.
Other returnees are seniors Kristie
Furlosi and Maria Gibson, junior
Siobhan Cahill and sophomores
Hannah Conahan, Abby McLane,
Jessa Sablan and Mia Caputo.
Gualtieri, Furlosi, Muller and
Sweeney all joined Smertz by swim-
ming on two first-place relay teams
while Feather and freshman Elisa
Selznick were on one each in the
opener. Furlosi and Sweeney also had
a first and a second as individuals
while Muller and Gualtieri had two
seconds.
AnnieGromelski won the diving.
Selznick and junior Leila Cappela-
no-Farber lead the list of 11new-
comers for Mary Gromelski, who is
in her fifth season as Abington
Heights head coach and her 29th year
overall coaching swimming.
Seniors Jason Kohn and Matt
Bruzzano are back after scoring
points with top-12 finishes in four
events each in last seasons regional
meet.
Juniors Luke Fazio and Walker
Kay are among the best of the rest,
along with senior Pat Conahan and
sophomore Noah Shapiro.
Kay and Fazio were part of the only
winning relay in the opening loss to
Dallas while also adding second-
place individual finishes.
Bruzzano and Conahan were also
on the relay while Kohn had a sec-
ond-place individual finish.
Senior Matt Pettinato, TomJubon
and Sean Albright and juniors Sam
Vale and Dan Stevens are among the
other returnees.
Almost half of the roster is new-
comers. Brendan Conahan and diver
Collin Florey could be the best of that
group. Imhonored to be my high
schools swimming coach, Lem-
picky said. I think theres a lot I can
teach them.
Lempicky will try to help the
Comets improve after going 3-4 in
the division last season and placing
sixth of nine teams in the Class AAA
regional.

We have a good core
group of guys who have
been solid in the program
for three of four years, head
coach Chris Calder said.
We will do well in individ-
ual tournaments, but our
lack of teamnumbers hurts
our ability to be competitive
in league play. We need
more kids who want to
invest time in wrestling.

The Lions must replace

The kids that we have
noware working hard,
Petherick said. Its a differ-
ent program. Ive turned the
apple cart upside down. Ive
come in with a different
program, different mindset
and we lost some kids to
attrition. The kids that I have
nowhave been coming in,
keeping their head down,
doing their work and work-
ing hard. I think the kids that
we have are pretty solid.
Were just taking it one
match at a time. You win
matches through prepara-
