The Riverside Panthers Are King Of The Hill They Defeat Camp Hill 4-0 In State PIAA Class 3 Championship!

Christian Lucarelli Struck out the first Camp Hill batter  and ended with 2 strikeouts in the bottom of the 7th, and they took him out with the last batter that they would send to the plate as Mitch Garvin came in to face the last batter and get the out as Lucarelli got hugs from his team, and when the dust cleared the Panthers were undefeated and Kings on the mountain with their 5th WPIAL Championship. In the first inning   Camp Hill’s batter would hit a long fly ball that would bounce against the fence for a one out double, they put the next batter on with a free pass to first, then next batter gets a base on balls loading the bases and the next guy up popped it up to third for the second out, and then they hit a ground ball to Evan Burry and he threw it to Sean Hayes to get out of the top of the first. that’s the biggest threat that Riverside faced from Camp Hill other Than their great pitching  from their starter  Luke Parise who ended up striking out a bunch of Panthers. In the bottom of the 4th Ashton Schlosser draws a walk with one out and Bo Fornataro hits a ball to shortstop and they throw to second for the fielders choice. Then on a 2 and one count Bo Fornataro broke for second and went in head first to get under the tag and the panthers had a man on second with  Hunter Garvin up and he hits a ball into the out field and  Dan Oliastro wind mills Bo Fornataro around third for the Panthers first run. That was it until the bottom of the 6th when the Panthers scored 3 more with 2 coming off a Mitch Garvin double  and the fans go nuts they score 3 runs on three hits to win in State College they are the champs. The game was broadcast here by Mike Azadian and Bruce Frey on 99.3 FM 95.7 FM 1230WBVP/1460WMBA and around the World on Beaver County Radio .Com.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Measures to raise fees on millions of phone bills in Pennsylvania passed the state House of Representatives on Wednesday in a bid to bolster funding for county-run emergency communication centers and the state’s 988 suicide hotline.

SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — A former manager at the Harvard Medical School morgue, his wife and three other people have been indicted in the theft and sale of human body parts. Federal prosecutors in Pennsylvania announced the indictments Wednesday. They say 55-year-old Cedric Lodge stole dissected portions of cadavers that were donated to the Harvard Medical School from 2018 to early 2023. Authorities say the body parts were taken without the school’s knowledge or permission. They say Lodge sometimes took the body parts back to his New Hampshire home and also allowed buyers to visit the morgue to choose the remains they wanted to buy.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Automatic external defibrillators, or AEDs, would be placed in nearly every school or sports and recreation venue in Ohio under a proposal that cleared the Republican-dominated Ohio House with overwhelming bipartisan support. The legislation was sparked by the sudden cardiac arrest of Buffalo Bills player Damar Hamlin in January on the field during a National Football League game in Cincinnati. It would require employees to undergo special training on using AEDs and recognizing the signs of cardiac arrest. Schools and other locations also have to hold informational sessions for students before each athletic season. The proposal that passed the House on Wednesday now heads next to the Senate.

Pennsylvania’s plan for rebuilding a collapsed section of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia involves tons of small glass nuggets, each one about an inch wide and light as Styrofoam. Gov. Josh Shapiro won’t say how long it’ll take to get traffic flowing again, but he says union crews will work nonstop until the job is done. The plan is to fill the space where a gasoline truck fire destroyed an overpass with 2,000 tons of recycled glass recovered from landfills. Workers will pave over it to reopen the critical East Coast highway. After that, they’ll build another bridge to reroute traffic so they can remove the fill and reopen the underpass.

‘Stand with Trump’ becomes rallying cry as Republicans amplify attacks on US justice system

WASHINGTON (AP) — Moments after Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to federal charges that he hoarded classified documents and then conspired to obstruct an investigation about it, the Republicans in Congress had his back. Trump’s mounting legal jeopardy has quickly become a political rallying cry as they rush to stand by the indicted former president. Many Republicans say they haven’t fully read the 49-page indictment against Trump. But they are adopting his grievances against the federal justice system as their own. It’s an example of how Trump has transformed the Republican Party that was once the party of “law and order,” but is now attacking the very justice system at the foundation of U.S. democracy.
