Saturday afternoon in Kutztown for the Golden Bears Homecoming and one last turn on the mic for me. The Bears hosted division rival Lock Haven (from the city of the same name, about 140 miles northwest of Lancaster), game time was in mid-afternoon at 3:00. Before kickoff there was a ceremony honoring relatives of football players who were cancer survivors, halftime was unsurprisingly busy as well. There were two dance team exhibitions, the naming of the Homecoming Spirit Court Champion (the equivalent of Homecoming Queen), a brief performance by the KU Band and recognitions of the winners of a campus poster-making contest all within the space of twenty minutes and we had it done with four minutes to spare. In the game itself the Bears were in control from the start, at halftime it was 28-0 with the final score at 35-7. KU has one last home game on November 5 (I'm out for hockey at the Arena), if they have any playoffs at home I should be good IF I'm needed. On Sunday we were in Rothsville for week #4 of hockey at Lions Park, it should have been week #7 but we all know that story. One new man debuted bringing the enrollment up to forty-seven altogether, on this day both games were decided via overtime shootout. Hillside won over Warwick and Township outlasted Ephrata, we're back on the 30th weather permitting. Take care, thanks for reading.
