(New Brighton, Pa.) The first half was dominated by penalties and Rochester’s offense. The Lions couldn’t stop Parker Lyons and Antonio Laurie. New Brighton’s Defense did cause a fumble in the beginning of the second quarter that Kevin Williams returned for a 40 yards for a touchdown. Rochester answered right back and took a 20-6 lead in the middle of the second. The Lions were aided by a personal foul on the Rams and drove down the field late in the second quarter capping it off with a circus like catch for a touchdown and the Lions tightened up the score at 20-13 with 5 minutes left till the intermission. The Rams then drove down the field nearing the half as Antonio Laurie broke away for a 30 yard run deep in New Brighton territory. Laurie capped it off with a 12 yard touchdown run with  3:29 left in the half. The two point conversion attempt was no good and the Rams led 26-13 over the Lions.  The Rams stuffed the Lions with a four and out and Jerome Mullins pulled in a long pass from for another score right near the end of the half. The two point conversion was no good and the Rams led 32-13 with 1:28 left in the half.  The Rams went to the locker room at the half with a 32-13 lead.

The Rams received the second half kick-off and went right on the offensive. Parker Lyons broke away with a quarterback keeper and gained 25 yards deep into New Brighton territory.  Rochester’s Antonio Laurie then took the ball in from six yards out and the two point conversion was good. The Rams started pulling away from the Lions at 40-13 with 9:00 Minutes left in the third quarter. New Brighton got the ball back and continued to be bitten by the penalty flag committing procedure and offensive pass penalties. The Rams took back over after a New Brighton Punt and drove down the field capping off the drive with an Ambry Murray touchdown. Antonio Laurie added the two point conversion and the Rams invoked the mercy rule with a 48-13 lead in the middle of the third quarter. The Lions took the kick-off and started driving the ball as the third quarter was coming to a close.  The Rams got the ball back early in the 4th and sophomore Carter Mason broke away for another touchdown run  and a Rams 54-13 lead as the Rams attempted their first extra point kick of the night that was no good.

With a Rochester victory well in hand both teams got their younger players some experience. With 7:12 to go the Lions turned the ball over on downs to the Rams.

Thomas Henry then ran 20 yards to put the Rams ahead 60-13  with 3:40 left after the extra point was no good.

Pennsylvania Launching Free School Breakfast Program

Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf speaks with the press. Governor Tom Wolf announced his $21.5 million plan to provide universal free school breakfast for 1.7 million students across the commonwealth this school year. SEPTEMBER 09, 2022 – STEELTON, PA

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — More than 1.7 million public and private school students in Pennsylvania will be able to get breakfast for free under a plan that will begin next month and run through the school year. State officials made the announcement Friday. The $21.5 million plan will be paid for with money from the previous year’s School Food Services General Fund appropriation. Schools that participate in the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs will receive support from the program. The pandemic-era federal aid that made school meals available for free to all public school students, ended this past school year, despite a push in Congress to extend it.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A Canadian university is making public Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano’s 2013 doctoral thesis about American World War I hero Sgt. Alvin York. The online posting includes six pages of corrections Mastriano added a year ago that in some cases don’t appear to correct anything. Rival researchers have long criticized Mastriano’s investigation into York as plagued by factual errors, amateurish archaeology and sloppy writing. A University of New Brunswick history professor involved in reviewing Mastriano’s work there says he warned other faculty nearly a decade ago that it wasn’t up to their standards. Mastriano didn’t respond to requests for comment.
