SECTION ONE Wilson Until theyre knocked off, champion Bulldogs remain the favorite. Lanc. Catholic Massive Crusaders look like a college team. And CJ Gantz is a big addition at QB. Penn Manor Preseason injuries could prove crucial in ultra-competitive Section One. Hempfield Some talent graduated, but Black Knights are big, strong and determined to make up for last season. Warwick Behind QB Matt Pennypacker, Warriors will ride the friendly skies. Manheim Twp. Minus a high-gloss star, Blue Streaks take on blue-collar approach. McCaskey Red Tornado retool with new players and an emphasis on the running game. Cedar Crest Falcons look to amp up their defense. SECTION TWO Manheim Central Talented Barons could end Section Two title drought. Cocalico Defending champs hope to exit section on a high note. Lamp.-Stras. Pioneers Bear down behind QB Collin Shank. Conestoga Valley New boss Mark Pieters will have Buckskins winging it on offense. Elizabethtown Bears look to build on last seasons strong finish. Solanco Experienced Golden Mules will improve on last years record. Ephrata Mountaineers will benefit from all-star coaching staff. Lebanon Cedars seek to make their Mark behind QB Pyles. SECTION THREE Garden Spot Spartan attitude could bring a second straight section title. Donegal FB/LB Kris Trimby and Co. still smarting over sudden end to last season. Elco Coach Bob Miller has Raiders moving in right direction. Northern Lebanon Team chemistry has Vikings eyeing improvement. Annville-Cleona Mitch Rodkey will be key for bigger, stronger Little Dutchmen. Columbia Crimson Tide eye diversity under new coach James Burke.

Title retention no easy chore

he upcoming LancasterLebanon League football campaign not only heralds change four teams will be switching sections in 2014 it may well be a season of change. Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown, Shakespeare once wrote, and the ancient text carries extra meaning for reigning section kings Wilson, Cocalico and Garden Spot. Last seasons section races were as competitive as any in recent memory, and as Spartan boss Matt Zamperini noted this summer, the field of contenders has only become a year bigger, a year stronger and a year more experienced. What that means for this fall will be played out over the course of the 10 weeks of the regular season. For now, it means that none of the defending champs are locks to reclaim the crown. Gradu-
ation losses are key, of course, but injuries, breaks, bounces of the ball and referees calls all play a part as well. Wilson has been top dog in Section One for several years now, but an informal poll of section coaches taken on L-L Media Day revealed Penn Manor as the consensus choice to end the Bulldogs reign. Not everyone was convinced. Until Wilson is beaten, Lancaster Catholics Bruce Harbach said, theyre the favorite. The Dawgs were supposed to have lost their bite last season, but Doug Dahms crew fought off a tough field that included playoff teams in Penn Manor, Lancaster Catholic, Manheim Township and McCaskey. This season Section One looks to be even more competitive, with Warwick and Hempfield expected to be in the mix and Cedar Crest seeking improvement. This season marks the last for this group as currently constructed; league heavyweight Lancaster Catholic is moving to Section Two for 2014. The big question in Section
One is the coaches favorite. The Comets sustained key injuries in a scrimmage with Manheim Central, and their replacements are good but unproven. The Barons, meanwhile, will once again contend for the Section Two title. For years the scourge of the section, Centrals last championship came in 2009. Strong seasons by Lampeter-Strasburg in 2010-11 and by Cocalico last year have shifted the balance of power, resulting in three straight secondplace finishes for Mike Williams and Co. The sections Big Three Cocalico, L-S and Central will fight it out one final time. The Eagles, much to their dislike, move to Section Three next season, and the coming change could provide the champs with extra motivation to leave Section Two on a high note. A sense of melancholy could pervade Centrals hosting of Conestoga Valley in the penultimate game of the regular season. For decades now, the Barons-BuckPlease see PREVIEW, page 35

team. A town. A title. All three came together last fall for Garden Spots football program, the Spartans running the table in their first season in Section Three and emerging as the Lancaster-Lebanon Leagues only undefeated team for the regular season. It was great while we were doing it and its great to look back on, senior two-way lineman Zach Walker said. We know what it takes, and we can use that to carry on and do the same (this season). The memories are indeed plentiful. The Spartans stormed through their preaseason, defeating Twin Valley, Ephrata and Conestoga Valley by a combined 97-13. Their success on the field would come to take Leola by storm as well. We were a blue-collar team and this is a blue-collar community, said running back/linebacker Ben Swarr, one of the teams tackle leaders in 2012. People really got behind us. That was evident by Game Four, when Garden Spot hosted Donegal in an L-L season opener that everyone knew was much more than that. With state champion Lancaster Catholic having moved to Section One, the Indians were the preseason pick by many to step into the power vacuum and win Section Three. Like Garden Spot, Donegal had demolished its first three opponents in 2012, scoring 68 points against Palmyra the week before their meeting with the Spartans. Donegal, Swarr stated, is a real good team. Playing one of their finest halves of the season, the Spartans shut out the high-octane Indians over the first two quarters en route to a 20-0 lead. The second half was a slugfest, the two section heavyweights combining for 37 points. In the end, the Spartans walked off with a 34-23 lead and a firm grasp of first place. As Garden Spot resumed its triumphant march through the rest of the regular season the Spartans scored at least 30 points in each of their final six games and 40 or more in four of those fan interest intensified. The Spartans played a style of football that was fast and fun and struck a chord with the fans. Garden Spot football hasnt been known for having a lot of (physical) size, Swarr said. But our guys, they

ship role, he acknowledged. I can tell them what to do, but if you lead by example, thats how you truly get to them. Monzon looks to him, and Garcia, to provide an example to a line that could include junior Azzur Glover (5-9, 325) and sophomore Deandre Bacon (5-10, 313). Theyre big, but their young, Monzon said. So were just trying to make situations where they see a positive outcome. Also changing although its actually a late-season change from 2012 is the Tornados defensive scheme. Well stay in a 4-4, Monzon said. We went there at the end of the year (and) I thought we were playing better. Implementing that scheme will be new defensive coordinator Ron Zangari. Zangari, for four seasons the head coach at the Thaddeus Stevens School of Technology, returns to his scholastic alma mater after coaching linebackers at Millersville. Its a turnabout as Monzon, a teammate of Zangaris at Shippensburg, coached running backs and the offensive line for Zangari at Stevens. Program sales will be brisk in early September as the Tornado introduces a roster thick with sophomores and juniors, recognizable only to those who hung out at Monday afternoon JV clashes. Theres a lot of question marks, Monzon said, and Im looking forward to camp to figure them out and to see where were at. Monzons plan is to avoid the stomach-churning ups and down that were a feature of last years early schedule when the Tornado came from ahead losing to Reading and held off York late before being trampled by Exeter. We want to start on a solid note so we can get some momentum going in (to the L-L schedule). We have no choice, he added, gesturing to the Wilson contingent gathered at a neighboring table. The gatekeepers are Week One in the section.

center. The 6-2, 173-pound junior quarterbacked the JV team in 2012 and eagerly awaits the next step. Weve been working all summer, he shared. Im ready for it. And ready for the inevitable changes in speed of the game? Ill see, Week One, he responded confidently. Hes definitely showing the leadership Ive been looking for, said Monzon. Im really comfortable with the progress hes made. Looking to join Ballenger in the backfield is Kamaal Gantz, a 5-9, 134-pound junior scatback who will also see action in the defensive secondary. Ill play pretty much any position, he declared, wherever coach needs me, Ill play. Monzon relates that younger players like Kamaal, who blocked behind Cherry and Swinton, did not just sit and collect cobwebs. They ... were learning, he said. Theyre talented kids in themselves and Im looking forward to letting them get a chance (and) see how they do. Garcia is penciled in at one of the tackles. Greene could be at tackle, could be at center, depending on how his younger linemates progress. Either way, the three-year veteran is the undisputed leader of the trenchmen. Im feeling more of a leader-

oLancaster-Lebanon League team had a more schizophrenic 2012 than Hempfield. The Black Knights started the season 2-0, including quality wins over Lampeter-Strasburg and Manheim Central. After that game, 10 starters were suspended from the team for their involvement in an off-campus incident. Hempfield promptly lost six straight. In the last of those six, the final game of the suspensions, the undermanned Knights gave Lancaster Catholic a reasonable fight in a 28-14 loss. Then the suspended players returned, and the Knights promptly beat Warwick. It ended at 3-7, 1-6 in Section One. The fallout resonates, and thats not necessarily a bad thing. Ron Zeiber, Hempfields third-year coach, estimates that at least nine returning players have considerable varsity experience they wouldnt have, without the suspensions. They came through it, and Im proud of the way they came through it, Zeiber said. I think we learned what we needed to learn. Its nothing but an advantage now.

One with 117 tackles a year ago, is back. Despite being undersized (5-11, 155), hes getting small-college recruiting looks. But the real strength of the Black Knights appears to be up front. Four of the five projected offensive-line starters started last year, and the other played. That includes some seriously big dudes, like tackles Unger (6-4, 290) and Joey Goodhart (6-4, 270). Theyve both heard from Temple, and FCS schools like Lehigh and Lafayette. Goodhart is also a D-I wrestling recruit. Both are honor students. Yes, both intend to throw their hat in the team-captain ring.

here are critical junctures in every football season, but surely Penn Manor coach Todd Mealy did not expect one to come on Aug. 17. That day, in a scrimmage against Manheim Central, Tyler Spangler, the Comets best running back, broke an arm and Brett Caggiano, an Section One FirstTeam choice last year at wide receiver and outside linebacker, broke his collarbone. Both will likely miss between six and eight weeks. (Also injured in the scrimmage were fullback-linebacker Logan Kinser, who rolled an ankle, and tight end-defensive end Ethan Barley, who pulled a hamstring. Mealy hopes to have both for the season opener, though.) These developments are ominous, but in Mealys mind they also represent an opportunity. Ominous, because Manor has (had?) high hopes for this season. When Barley was asked several days before the fateful scrimmage about his teams chances to end Wilsons five-year reign atop the section, he said, I think its our turn. Now, who knows? Mealy acknowledges the Comets have lost

Sports Columnist
High-school sports are, fundamentally, cyclical. With that in mind, an odd fact: Only two players who earned L-L League Section One First-Team AllStar nods in 2012 are back this year. Both of them are from the same team, Penn Manor. One of them, Brett Caggiano, broke his collarbone in a scrimmage last week. Roman Clay, Sean Titus, Nick Reitenbach, Matt Foltz, Diante Cherry, Aaron Swinton, Joe Gamble, Adam Sahd, Brennan Scott, Tom Devenney, Anthony Brown, Tyler Karpinski, Tanner Reed, et al ... All headline-grabbing, skill-position names. All gone.

Teams were required to hold three consecutive days of such workouts no earlier than Aug. 7, in only helmets, shoulder pads and shorts, except for the third day, which could be full pads, but no contact. Regular practices began Aug. 12, but no player could participate in regular practice without three days of heat acclimatization. The rule exists because of the 41 high school players who have died of heat-related causes since 1995, most of them during two- or three-a-day preseason practices, according to the National Center for Catastrophic Sport Injury Research. Coaches tend to like it, or at least understand it, but not love it. Its a good thing, but the way we get kids ready, I dont know if we need it, Manheim Central coach Mike Williams said. And then, as it turned out, it wasnt that hot. We havent been acclimated to 90-degree heat. Also in the safety realm, Guardian, a Georgia company, makes a soft helmet cap a sort of sleeve worn over the helmet, that it claims reduces collision impact by 33 percent. The caps, generally used for practice, not games, are very popular in Texas and the western United States. Several Pennsylvania schools are using them,

none local. Problem: The cap makes the helmet bigger, and thus illegal in some states. Its a really good idea, but the helmet-makers are against it, John Shissler, who used to sell the caps in the Philadelphia area, said last week. I believe in it, but the way things are, itd be tough to make a living selling it.
Which does not necessarily mean were staring at a down year. It does mean that by the back-of-the-envelope figuring we in the media specialize in, it looks like a program year. Youre hearing, and reading, all about the Usual Suspects. Wilson. Lancaster Catholic. Cocalico/Manheim Central/Lampeter Strasburg. And, emerging in Section Three under the current L-L alignment, Garden Spot. A potential interloper or, given its recent success, an emerging Usual Suspect is Penn Manor, given a shot by many L-L coaches to challenge Wilsons longtime dominance in Section One. Except for the scrimmage, with Manheim Central, in which Caggiano broke his collarbone and RB/DB Tyler Spangler broke his arm and DL/TE Ethan Barley, whos been starting since freshman year, injured a hamstring. Its awful, Comets coach Todd Mealy understated. It is awful, and player safety is an increasingly critical issue in the sport at all levels. Which is why the prep season began five days early, thanks to heat acclimatization guidelines newly mandated by the PIAA.
With the aformentioned big names gone, best player in the Lancaster-Lebanon League is an interesting debate; Manheim Central TE Taylor Geib was All-State a year ago, and is one of five L-L players of Eastern Pa. Footballs watch list. The others: Central QB Colin Fry, Donegal FB/LB Kris Trimby and Garden Spot QB Mitch Martin. Pound-for-pound best player, though, comes down to a pair of 170-pounders, Trimby and Cocalico LB Dalton Kern. Trimby, a classic FB/LB perfect for his teams WingT, ran for 1,344 yards and 18 touchdowns last year. The Section Three LB of the Year, he had 72 tackles and five interceptions. Kerns defensive numbers are surreal: 123 tackles, 16 for loss, and 3.5 sacks.

Garden Spot QB Martin was first-team allSection Three last year as a sophomore, a rarity at that position. He racked up 14 touchdown passes and 10 TD runs last year, with a 106 QB rating and a hair under seven rushing yards per carry. Hes a sensible pick for best L-L player in the class of 2015.
Similarly, the best player in Pennsylvania is something of a positional debate. Could be Gateway S Montee Nicholson (offers from Penn State, Florida State, Michigan, Oregon and

Burke has about 40 now, and will have a JV team for the first time in a while. We have a lot of potential, Burke said. The key now is making the kids understand that without hard work, you cant realize potential.

Best in District Three goes to Cedar Cliff QB Andrew Ford, a 6-3, 180 senior who is coached by QB guru Jim Cantafio and committed to Virginia Tech. There arent many L-L players who figure to be more relied upon this fall than Cocalico QB/DB Jhett Janis. Even fewer, in this age of specialization, can say football is their secondbest sport. But Janis is one of the countrys best teenage javelin throwers, having finished sixth in the Penn Relays and fourth in the USA World Youth Track and Field Championships this year. Hes being recruited, for track and field, by Texas A&M, Penn State, LSU and Virginia. High school football on TV: Blue Ridge Cable 11 will air an L-L game each Friday during the season, with a replay at noon the following Monday. The schedule is at http://www.cable11. com/schedule/Fall Sports Schedule 2013.pdf Pennsylvania Cable Network airs a state-wide game of the week, but at press time, remarkably, the only game scheduled was the season opener, Wilson vs. Governor Mifflin, Aug. 30.

One prominent new coordinator is Ron Zangari, the former head coach at Stevens Tech and assistant at Millersville, wholl now run the defense at McCaskey. McCaskey head coach Rob Monzon played with Zangari at Shippensburg, and coached under him at Stevens. Best team in District Three, certainly relative to class, is old standby Bishop McDevitt, which has won three straight 3-AAA titles and been eliminated from states by the eventual champ all three years. Fifteen starters return, including all-state DE Steve Marrazzo, four starting OLs, two 1,000-yard rushers and tons and tons of athletes. It was a watershed offseason for Americas best highschool program, De La Salle, the Concord, Calif. parochial school that has won eight mythical national titles and the last four California Open Division championships. Coach Bob Ladouceur retired in January (career record: 399-25-4), although he remains as a teacher at the school and assistant coach to his replacement and former player, Justin Alumbaugh, age 33. De La Salle returns four starting offensive linemen who average 6-3, 270 and adds a fifth, Kahlil McKenzie, son of Oakland Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie, a 6-4, 305 junior with offers from Florida, Florida State, Notre Dame and Oklahoma. They might be OK. The two best teams in the state might be in the Philadelphia Catholic League. LaSalle won the AAAA title in 09, reached the finals in 2010, and the semis in 11 and 12. And theyve added Kyle Shurmur, a 6-4, 210 QB and son of Eagles offensive coordinator Fritz Shurmur, who has offers from Penn State, Michigan State and Vanderbilt. St. Josephs Prep features two of the states best juniors: DB Josh Reid (offers from Penn State, Michigan State, etc.); and OT and Michigan commit Jon Runyan

The L-Ls toughest non-league game is probably Lancaster Catholics Sept. 14 trip to play Erie McDowell at Altoonas Mansion Park. McDowell beat Catholic 49-20 a year ago, but went just 7-6. It did win two state sub-regional games before being blown out by eventual state champ North Allegheny. McDowell is ranked 13th in the state by MaxPreps. com.
Its tough to attract college recruiters on an 0-10 team, but Lebanons Mark Pyles did that a year ago. A 5-11, 200-pound QB/LB wholl probably play in the secondary in college, has drawn FCS looks, notably from the Ivy League.

Random sampler of L-L football on Twitter: @Epurv (Catholics Evan Purvis), @evanhorn33_39 (Cedar Crests Evan Horn), @ hemp59 (Hempfields Joey Goodhart), @footballCFryday (Manheim Centrals Colin Fry), @Moser_Spencer2 (Cocalicos Spencer Moser), @Mpyles05 (Lebanons Mark Pyles), and @_T1mo (Wilsons Matt Timochenko).
Manheim Central is 493-200-18 all time. Win No. 500 is coming. The Barons host L-S week seven, go to Ephrata week eight, and host old rival Conestoga Valley week nine.
The L-L has two new head coaches: James Burke at Columbia and Mark Pieters at Conestoga Valley. Pieters isnt really new; hes been the HC at Solanco and Penn Manor, and an assistant at CV. Burke is only 26, was the valedictorian of his class at Columbia and played at F&M. It only seems like the Columbia coach has been named Burke since Jack Yohe left. The Crimson Tide had only about 22 players by the end of last season, not even enough to run a decent practice.

Mark this one down on your calendar, part one: The round robin that should decide Section One Penn Manor at Lancaster Catholic Sept. 27, Lancaster Catholic at Wilson Oct. 11, Penn Manor at Wilson Oct. 25. Note that the Bulldogs get em both at home.
MTODOYC, part two: Manheim Central at Cocalico Oct. 4. Their 48-35 battle decided Section Two a year ago (in the Eagles favor). Since Cocalico is moving to Section Three next year, it could be their last meeting for a while.

hes going to make good decisions. He will be willing to take what the defense gives him. That, in a nutshell, is the aim of this offense. The concept is similar to the West Coast offense. Making reads is important and the running backs, like last years leading rusher, Gabe Taylor (188 carries, 726 yards, four TDs; 10 receptions, 89 yards), will be involved in the passing game, too. Austin Myers (19 receptions, four TDs) and Anthony Fatjo (37) caught most of last seasons passes and both return. So does halfback Tommy Garner (12). Myers caught his 19 passes over the course of just five games, sitting out part of the season with a broken hand. Fatjo became a real good possession receiver last season, Locker said.

According to his coaches and teammates, hes also picked up Catholics complex offense rather quickly. CJ is a smart kid, Harbach said. Hes pretty mobile for a big kid. (Opposing defenses) have to account for a (QB) who can run. CJ and his brother Kobe, a sophomore wideout/defensive back, are two of the transfers to Catholic for this season. Soph tight end/DL Cole Cassel (6-4, 230), is a third, having transferred in from Warwick. The Crusaders will also have up to eight or nine players from Lancaster Mennonite through a co-op agreement. Along with Bauer, Sheedy and Houston, returning starters on the defense include Weaver and Stephen Sheetz at cornerback, Kurt Kessler and Keenan Reigel at linebacker. Catholic, which dominated Section Three for years, went 5-2 in its return to Section One and 9-4 overall, the reigning Class AA state champs reaching the Triple-A semifinals. We can compete with every team in the league, said Scarff, who added that league losses to section champ Wilson and runner-up Penn Manor leaves Catholic in a new role. Were the underdogs, he said. Added Bauer, Were looking to come out hitting on all cylinders. We feel like we can play with every team in the section and get back in the playoffs.

ginning of last season, and recently told the Reading Eagles Mike Drago that he considered giving up football at that point. But he stuck with it, finally cracking the starting lineup for the Week Nine showdown against Penn Manor a 14-7 Wilson victory and remaining there. Dahms likes the progress Timochenko has made in terms of decision-making, and called his QBs performance against Parkland a confidence-builder. There are capable skill-position guys around him, but the line needs some work. Returning tackle Madison Woodward is joined by four newcomers, and Dahms said runblocking is a concern at present. But again, its Wilson. We always have a target on our back, Hatlee said. We know that. We work so we can keep the target on our back, without giving much up.

title since then. We usually feel good about what we have, especially with this many (15) returning starters, he said. But weve got to get tougher, smarter, better-conditioned, hopefully stronger. Definitely, compared to last year, I think we are getting smarter. (More eye contact. More halfserious smiles.) Central returns roughly 2,000 rushing yards (Hanselman, Marc Royer and Fry), and 1,700 receiving yards (Geib, Andrew Seiverling and Dan Wiederrecht). Theres experience and athletic size up front, notably Nate Brandt (5-10, 232), Jay Swayne (6-3, 280) and Chad Zunich (6-3, 315). The Barons will have to get better defensively they yielded a very un-Central-like 265 yards a game last year, but the pieces seem in place. Hanselman and Geib combined for nearly 130 tackles. DL Lasanta had 87 tackles and must have been among the leaders in the state, if not the country, with five blocked kicks. Central is ranked fifth in the state in Class AAA by Papreps. com. Cocalico, ranked 10th, looms in the section, No. 3 Bishop McDevitt in districts, perhaps a West Allegheny or Archbishop Wood (Nos. 1-2) in the state. But if theyre smart enough, it looks like the Barons are ready to think that big again.

Reliving a state championship

Barons journey to PIAA title chronicled in new book
his football season marks the 10th anniversary of the most amazing game Lancaster-Lebanon League football has ever produced. Manheim Central won the leagues first state football championship with a doubleovertime defeat of Pine-Richland in a contest that, in contexts both historic and meteorological, was not just epic but almost miraculous. The game that preceeded the miracle, a 3-0 defeat of then-monstrous Strath Haven in a Class AAA state semifinal, was roughly 97 percent as good and 100 percent as unusual. Quite a little run there, by your 03 Barons. Somebody ought to write a book about it. So we did. Coming next month: Best Game Ever: Manheim Centrals run to the 2003 state championship, produced by Lancaster Newspapers, printed by Intelligencer, and available in a retail outlet near you. The book will be roughly 150 pages, in a softcover format, with dozens of color photos from Lancaster Newpapers photographers. About half the book will consist of archival material from LNPs coverage of the 03 Barons. The other half will be original writing from sports columnist Mike Gross. The archives are culled for a lot of material. LNP produced roughly 60 stories con-
nected to the championship alone. They will include at least one game story for every game of the 03 season, plus features, columns, previews, recaps, analysis, color/fan pieces and even editorials. Among those interviewed for the original material were Central coach Mike Williams, P-R coach Clair Artemus, assistant coaches, staffers, administrators and players, including most of the senior 03 Barons. There is material on the history not just of Manheim Central but of Manheim, and not just Baron football but high-school football in Pennsylvania, the Lancaster-Lebanon League and the region. Even if youre the biggest Baron fanatic on Earth, you will find parts of the story you dont know, or have forgotten, or think you know but dont quite. The stars of the books are, unsurprisingly, Williams and his remarkable players, every one of whom contributed something unique. Although the marketing is still in the planning stage, it will involve print, electronic and social media. There will be signings and other public appearances. Stay tuned.

Jared Horn returns on the offensive line for the Pioneers this season.
Michael Warfel, right, is a back as a two-way lineman for L-S.
Pioneers
Continued from 24
Warfel, who started at nose guard last season and rotated in at guard on occasion, will see the bulk of the snaps at Pickels old spot on offense, an especially important one in the Pioneers Wing-T attack. It definitely puts pressure on me to perform, Warfel said. Im definitely ready to go out there and live up to expectations and help out my team, since were looking to do big things this year. Cory Clites is also back at center, but as Manion said midway through the preseason, We still need to find a few linemen. There are position battles to be won. Were not set there, but I think we will be, by Week One. They get squared away up front, and L-S could be, well, a bear. Our coaches, Shank said, are touting us to be the underdog. Wed love to be the underdog this season and surprise some people. I really think well be able to do that.
GOOD LUCK L-S PIONEERS!

Ultimately, Pearson said, success will lie in his teams physicality. That was our biggest issue last year, Pearson said. If this team is going to be more successful, we need to be more physical. Physicality comes with confidence, and I think that can stem from experience. We cant Toby Kreider teach physicality. Its about trusting the guys beside rushed for you and getting in there and getting the job done. 468 yards for The same mentality applies to the defense, which the Golden will feature a 3-4 scheme this season. Junior Bo Spiller, Mules last a Section Two All-Star First-Team lineman a year ago, season. will anchor the three-man defensive line. Coby King highlights the linebacker corps, which will feature STATS some youth and inexperience. Kreider, as many high schoolers do, will play both ways and start at the safety position.

Having this 3-4 defense makes us a bit more dynamic, Pearson said. We can make adjustments and blitz from different areas. We struggled up front last year and teams pounded the ball on us. We have more options in this scheme and that should definitely help us. It would be easy to say a team should improve on a 1-9 season, but Pearson truly believes this program is headed in the right direction. We have 10 seniors this year, Pearson said. That means as we continue building, we have 40 kids coming back next year that are familiar with what were doing. Were a young team, but if they stick with it through years like we had last year, they will benefit from it. We didnt have physicality last year. And you either have it or you dont. Once this team gets more experienced, and more confident, that will translate to the physicality and well see results on the field. This team is going to be fundamentally sound and well continue to grow from that moving forward. We just need to be patient.

Nye, Keefer and Blake Weaver are three returning skill-position players who will be looking to improve a Mounts offense that was shut out five times last year and averaged only 10.3 points per game. Its hard when youre only winning one or two games a season, said Weaver, who led the team in rushing last fall with 571 yards and also tallied 940 all-purpose yards. It would mean a lot to turn this program around, maybe go .500 or have a winning season finally. That would be great. In an effort to get the program back on track, the Mounts players are learning the game from

hanges are coming at Conestoga Valley. A familiar face may be taking over the team, but the schemes, philosophy and mentality well, its all turning over. Mark Pieters, the Buckskins defensive coordinator a year ago, will lead a revamped Conestoga Valley squad in his first year at the helm after replacing Tom Nichols, who coached the Buckskins to a 3-7 record and fifth place in Section Two a year ago. Pieters 2013 team will feature a classic offense, a re-worked defense and a new philosophy that has the head coach believing the Buckskins can compete in Section Two. A year ago, the offensive game plan was simple; hand the ball off to Section Two Offensive Back of the Year Anthony Brown and let him run wild. The tailback ultimately racked up 1,339 yards and 13 touchdowns and was the focus of Conestoga Valleys offense. With Pieters in charge, the Buckskins are going to spread the ball around by using the Wing-T offense. Pieters would have likely used the Wing-T regardless, but this season it fits his personnel well. We arent very big up front (on the offensive line), Pieters said. So were going to rely on speed and creating angles. The idea is to put five or six guys on the field that can handle the ball on any snap. Counters, misdirections we want to fool the defense. The offense is going to feature a lot of different players getting touches. It all starts with the quarterback, a position that is still up for grabs according to Piet-

one to be on the same page. But from these packages we can stunt and throw guys in the box, or back off just as quickly. Jamaar Parker and Justus Norman will be Pieters shut-down corners, who will take on opponents top receivers. Sophomore free safety Daulton Martin will quarterback the defense. Were very impressed with how quickly Daulton has grasped the checks and could organize, Pieters said. We really like where we have this defense going. Pieters suppressed any concerns about being able to stop the run with five defensive backs on the field. We can stunt, we can stack the box, Pieters said. Were not a big team this year so we were never going to have a big run-stopping line. Were going to rely on speed. This is going to be an aggressive defense, I can promise you that. There wont be a bend but dont break mentality. In the broad picture, Pieters said, the Buckskins success lies in the attitudes of his players. He feels he has the right personnel and the right philosophies in place. On paper, it looks good for us, Pieters said. Ive never seen a team work as hard as this team has so far. Theyre learning the schemes and buying into it. We can be competitive in this section. This team will be mentally tough, and that can take us a long way.

here was a time when you couldnt blame Elizabethtowns football players for having felt they cornered the market on discouragement. In the 2011 season, the Bears failed to win a game. That, after losing the last three games of the 2010 season. The 13 straight losses grew to 14 after last seasons opener. It appeared the losing would stop there. In its second game, E-town led Hershey 19-0, lost the lead but had a 32-29 lead in the games final minute. Yet, a late Hershey TD doomed the Bears to another loss.

NOTABLE: Earned Section Three First-Team All-Star honors as a punter but Smith was also the Braves quarterback and rushed for a team-high 689 yards on 113 carries, six of the carries going for TDs. QUOTABLE: Pequea Valley coach Evan Breisblatt: Hunters just a strong, strong kid and has a very strong leg. Hes strong in the lower body and is such a good athlete.
NOTABLE: Caggiano caught 28 passes for 397 yards and five TDs during the regular season, averaging 14.1 yards per catch. He caught six more passes in the postseason. ... Suffered a broken collarbone in the Comets first scrimmage this season against Manheim Central. QUOTABLE: Penn Manor coach Todd Mealy: Hes very experienced and very bright. He understands the game and picks things up very quickly. Because of that, he can play very fast and play physical football.
NOTABLE: The Offensive Back of the Year, Linebacker of the Year and Outstanding Back of the Year in Section Three, Trimby rushed for a Section Two-leading 1,236 yards and scored 17 touchdowns. He also had 46 solo tackles, seven for a loss. QUOTABLE: Donegal coach Jeff Polites: His balance and vision are unbelievable. Hes strong in the lower body and tough to tackle. All you see is shoulder pads coming at you.
NOTABLE: Martin threw for 1,163 yards and 15 TDs as a sophomore, completing 53.8 percent of his passes. He also rushed for 632 yards and 10 TDs. QUOTABLE: Garden Spot coach Matt Zamperini: Last year at camp we were uncertain who our quarterback was and Mitch ended up rushing for nearly 700 yards and throwing for almost 1,200. Not sure that happens all the time. That speaks to his work ethic and abilities.
Positions: WR/CB/K Class: Sr. Ht. 5-11 Wt. 155
NOTABLE: Hilsher was named a Section Two First-Team All-Star as a punter. He averaged 37.05 yards per punt, putting two inside the 20. His longest punt went 56 yards. QUOTABLE: Elizabethtown coach Mike Cottle: Every day, hes out kicking and his dad is there, too. Its a family thing. Hes worked really hard to become a good kicker and punter for us.
NOTABLE: Trostle blocked for an offense that produced 332.4 yards per game and helped a defense that allowed just 161.2 yards per game during the regular season. QUOTABLE: Garden Spot coach Matt Zamperini: We were up at Bloomsburgs camp and they nominate players for positions and four of our five offenisve linemen were nominated. Trostle wasnt and he was upset about that. Hes undersized but hes as tough and hard-working as any lineman Ive coached.
NOTABLE: Yost Earned Section Three First-Team All-Star honors as a kick returner last season. He averaged approximately 30 yards per return, one of them going for a TD. As a receiver, he hauled in a team-high 16 passes for 219 yards and five touchdowns. QUOTABLE: Northern Lebanon coach Roy Wall: He sees the field very well. He sees an opening and just goes. Hes not just flat-out fast but he has a good field sense about where to run.

ocalico football is oldschool. The Eagles run essentially the same offense, the veer option, which drove the Eagles to big things under nowretired coach Phil Kauffman in the 1980s and 90s. Actually they run and run and run the veer, with 529 rushing attempts last year to just 68 passes. Although when they throw it, they throw it pretty well, for over 10 yards per attempt last year, a number that would get an NFL quarterback to the hall of fame. It all works because Cocalico believes in a concept that is not at all outdated: Putting good athletes in position to make plays. The Eagles went 10-2 last year, 7-0 in L-L Section Two, and reached the second round of the District Three Class AAA playoffs. Many of the playmakers are back, enough of them to have the Eagles, and 10th-year coach Dave Gingrich, thinking big. I think we have higher aspirations then maybe weve had, Gingrich said. These guys want to go farther than they went last year. Among those playmakers are running back Spencer Moser, who ran for 1,101 yards last year, over 10 per carry, and 16 touchdowns, despite being sort of the No. 2 back behind Nick Reitenbach,

of the regular season, a 34-23 decision that put the Spartans in first place to stay. Garden Spot ran the table the rest of the way to finish 10-0 the Spartans were the L-Ls lone unbeaten regular-season football team last fall while the Indians wouldnt lose again until the district playoffs. This season, the Spartans and Tribes rematch is again in the opening week of the L-L campaign, but this time in Mount Joy. Whether or not the outcome decides the section title as it did a year ago remains to be seen. Theres no doubt, however, its a game both squads have circled on their calendar. Like Cocalico, Garden Spot is looking to repeat as champ and leave Section Three on a high note. The Spartans return to Section Two next fall, and theyre looking to conclude their brief stay in Section Three with consecutive titles. Along with Donegal, expect Annville-Cleona, Columbia, Elco, Pequea Valley and Northern Lebanon to have something to say about how the section race ultimately plays out.

skins battle has been considered by some L-L observers to be the leagues version of Ohio StateMichigan. The rivalry sparked in the 1980s when Williams and former CV coach Jim Cantafio locked up in some memorable matchups, and their games since have often decided section supremacy. This season marks CVs swan song in Section Two. For 2014 and beyond, the Bucks trade places with the Crusaders and take up residency in Section One. CV, Elizabethtown, Ephrata, Solanco and Lebanon all look to play a role in the section race. Last years Section Three title was essentially decided in the opening week of the L-L season. It was then on Sept. 21 to be exact, in New Holland that Garden Spot dealt Donegal its lone defeat

Rules changes in place for new season

Key amendments to pass interference, sideline reception calls, interference with fair catch
BY KEVIN FREEMAN
igh school football players and coaches will have to get used to a couple of rules changes for the 2013 season, as set by the National Federation of State High School Associations. The one that may have the biggest impact on the game involves the pass interference penalty. In the past, when a player was flagged for offensive pass interference, his team was penalized 15 yards and lost the down. This season, the yards will be marked off but there will be no loss of down. Thats a rule change that coaches fought for over the past several seasons. Coaches claimed the offense took too big a hit with the penalty yards and loss of down. Teams had difficulty recovering from it. The loss of down was just so deadly, said Cocalico coach Dave Gingrich. It almost automatically puts you in a punt situation. In the spirit of give and take, a concurrent rule change takes away the automatic first down on defensive pass interference. That change, however, will not carry as much weight since unless an offense needs more than 15 yards to get the first down, the 15-yard penalty will result in a first down for the offense. A second change that might have the most impact, more of a clarification really, involves catching a pass, too. This change is actually the third stage in the ruling. Before last season, if a receiver caught the ball and the official judged that he was forced out of bounds by the defensive player, that was ruled a catch. Last season, the rule was changed to state that the receiver had to come down inbounds, regardless of contact by a defensive player. This season, the rule was amended further, saying that if a defensive player bumps the receiver out of bounds, its no catch. But if a defensive player actually wraps the receiver up after the catch, stops his forward progress and carries him out of bounds, the catch will stand.
Another change gives the punt receiving team another option when the kicking team is flagged for interfering with the player fielding the punt. In the past, options available to the punt receiving team were (a) take an awarded fair catch at the spot of the foul; or (b) take a 15-yard penalty from the previous spot (line of scrimmage where the ball was punted), which means youre probably replaying fourth down. Those were the options in the past, said Bill Bert, rules interpreter of Lancaster Chapter of PIAA Football Officials. The only way the receiving team could get yardage was to give the ball back to the punting team and have them punt it again. This season, on an interference call, the punt receiving team can accept a 15-yard penalty against the kicking team from the spot of the foul. Or, they can make the kicking team take a 15-yard penalty, which would probably result in a re-kick. It will teach the players on the kick coverage teams to be more cautious, especially the gunners, said Pequea Valley coach Evan Breisblatt. Gingrich likes the rule change, too. Its a safety thing as well, he said. You dont want kids running down there with no regard to the kid who is trying to concentrate on catching the punt. In addition this season, after a fair catch, a team may attempt a free kick (field goal try). Now, with the new rule on kick-catching interference, a team could be 15 yards closer for that kick. With a nod to safety, this season, if a players helmet comes off, that player must stop playing and cannot come in contact with other players. (Subsequently, a helmeted player cannot make contact with the player who has lost his helmet). As in the past, if the ball carriers helmet comes off, the play is dead. Now, if a non-ball carriers helmet comes off, the play continues, but nobody can touch that player. A couple of minor changes include teams being able to have different color towels tucked into their football pants (other than the color of the football or penalty flag). In the past, the towels had to be white. The towels may have only one manufacturers name or logo. Towels worn by teammates must be the same color. Also, coaches may further enter the 21st century and use an iPad or an iPhone on the sideline, instead of say, a clipboard.

its interior strength and experience to strengthen a run defense that allowed 2,315 yards on the ground in 2012. Our run defense has been kind of our Achilles heel in the past five years, Burke said. We play a lot of Wing-T, power-run teams in Section Three. We want to stop the run. If we do that, were going to be successful. That plan, Burkes players agreed, starts on the line. My biggest role, said Munoz, is to take on as many people as I can. It makes my linebackers look good. Im
not supposed to be making 20 million tackles, but if I do my job the right way, the linebackers should. Thats the key stopping the run this year. With a new coach, a new look on offense, and experience at its core, the Crimson Tide looks to build on the success the program found with its 2011 district crown and another year of postseason play culminating with a loss to eventual-champion Delone Catholic in 2012. Now that weve had those experiences, said senior running back/linebacker Keith Wakefield, now we know what we want. We want to win districts again. We want to win in the playoffs. We want to win a state playoff game. We want to be the first (Columbia) team to do that.

hey bear the bulls-eye, but, hey, thats OK. Garden Spot welcomes the challenge that comes with being Section Three champion. I think its a good thing, running back linebacker Ben Swarr said. It makes you keep your intensity, keep your focus. I mean, if teams are willing to take shots at us that just makes you more competitive. Quarterback Mitch Martin agreed. When people come after you like that you come out each week knowing theyre going to come out hard. You have to go back right at them, work harder than they do. The Spartans have a lot to work with. Martin, who threw for 1,163 yards and 15 touchdowns last fall and rushed for another 632 yards and 10 TDs, is back at the wheel of the Spartans Pistol/Spread offense. Hes confident, head coach Matt Zamperini said. Hes grown; hes stronger, his arm is stronger, hes faster. He has more of an understanding of what were doing. His mind is pushing beyond where it was last year. A scary thought for opponents, considering Martin guided the Spartans to a 10-0 mark, the only undefeated record in the L-Ls regular season. Last year was good, really good, he said. But we need to come into this season prepared. Swarr, for one, sounded prepared at a preseason practice. While the reigning champs appreciate what they did a year ago, theyre not dwelling on it. It doesnt matter now, the past is the past, said Swarr. Were able to appreciate it but we also have to find an identity. We have a lot of young guys on the team this year, a lot of young starters. We only have one returning defensive starter. The mentality and the identity we had last year was great, but we

Conestoga Valley puts the emphasis on team

BY ED GRUVER
ince Lombardi, the patron saint of football coaches, once said he preferred coaching the running game because it involved teaching all 11 members of the
offense. Consider new Conestoga Valley coach Mark Pieters to be of the same mind. The Buckskins will operate at times out of a Wing-T set this season, and Pieters and line coach Dennis Quirk tabbed 28 Waggle as one of their favorite plays. It fits our team, Quirk said. Were looking for the selfless players, and (28 Waggle) has a lot of guys selling themselves out for their teammates. The play is diagrammed above being run against a 4-3 defense but it can also be used against 4-4, 5-2 and 5-3 fronts. As Quirk noted, 28 Waggle calls for all 11 players to be operating as a single unit. The right tackle pulls to his left and seals off the defensive left tackle. The right guard also pulls left but continues further on down the line. The center seals off penetration through the middle. The onside guard pulls left and blocks the defensive right end. The onside tackle executes a down block on the right defensive tackle. The Y (tight end) runs a Waggle crossing pattern behind the linebackers 8-10 yards downfield. The right halfback runs a post pattern. The left halfback fakes a sweep right, creating a counter move to slow the flow of the defensive pursuit. The left half will also block the first defensive man
opposite the offside guard, who has pulled and vacated his spot. The fullback veers through the middle before sliding into the flat. The X or split end drives the secondary back with a post-corner route. The quarterback fakes a handoff to the fullback, reads the play and has a run-pass option. The Wing-T is run-heavy, Quirk said. Its share the wealth and share the responsibility. It promotes team above self. Its a play that complements our traps and sweeps. The counter and misdirection inherent in the WingT make it an offense difficult to defense. Defenses
used to be taught to follow the pull of the guards, but offenses routinely counter with false keys and counters that can break for big gains. Whereas the Wing-T was once a ground-and-pound game, it now incorporates subtle and sophisticated passing options and routes. Its flexibility is a key reason the Wing-T has survived more than 60 years. And its flexibility is further illustrated in 28 Waggles effectiveness against various defensive fronts. The one constant in the play is that it is team-oriented. It takes all 11 members of the offense working together as a single unit to make the play a success. You have to sell yourself out for your teammates, Quirk said. You have to be selfless.

ounds easy enough. But we all know its not. Still, Northern Lebanon may be well-positioned to make more noise in Section Three this season than they have in the past, based on the experience of its returning players, which includes most of its skill position players. Sure, things could go wrong. Injuries could creep up. But we could say that about any team.

The Vikings, 2-8 last season, have taken steps toward greater team unity, an aspect that was lacking last season. Some players were blaming others for things and not taking responsibility for their play, said Isaac Ray, who returns at quarterback. We werent playing as a team.
