WINGATE — Members of the North football team started hitting each other during the early stages of their preparation for the 25th annual Lezzer Lumber Football Classic.

STATE COLLEGE — While the Hall of Fame Summer Softball Classic is supposed to be a game where graduated seniors have fun and make new friends, don’t think that winning isn’t on the agenda, too.

The Bald Eagle Area softball team will face Brandywine Heights in the PIAA Class AA Championship at noon on Friday at Shippensburg University's Robb Field.

The 25th annual Lezzer Lumber Football Classic will include some familiar names to Centre County football fans.

Philipsburg-Osceola and Bald Eagle Area.

Over the past six softball seasons, the two schools go together like salt and pepper. One has seen its season end at the hands of the other in the District 6 Class AA Tournament, while the winner has gone on to capture the title.

Matt Fisher, Bellefonte

The senior baseball player had four hits and drove in three runs in District 6 Class AAA playoff victories over Indian Valley and Somerset. Fisher went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBIs in a 9-4 win over Somerset that gave the Red Raiders the district title. Fisher is batting .523 (34 of 65) on the season with eight home runs, 28 RBIs and 34 runs scored.

Kaylee Adams, Philipsburg-Osceola

Adams, a junior, placed seventh in the triple jump at the PIAA Class AA Track & Field Championships last week at Shippensburg University. Adams also placed 12th in the long jump and along with her teammates broke the school record in the 4x100 relay.

It’s baseball season, so it was entirely appropriate for the PIAA Board of Directors to toss a couple of curveballs at its spring meeting Thursday morning.

MILESBURG — When the heat is turned up in the postseason, Bald Eagle Area pitcher Megan Shaw appears to be wearing an asbestos uniform.

ALTOONA — Up and over, and on the way to Shippensburg.
