Two dominant backs in Ty’Meere Wilkerson and Dewayne Downey are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Berwick Bulldogs will host the Hanover Area Hawkeyes at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams are coming into the contest red-hot, with Berwick sitting on ten straight wins and Hanover Area on three.

Berwick’s defense heads into the matchup hoping to repeat the dominance they displayed on Friday. They simply couldn’t be stopped as they easily beat Tunkhannock 53-0. Given the Bulldogs’ advantage in MaxPreps’ Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 173rd, while the Tigers are ranked 493rd) , the win wasn’t entirely unexpected.

Brayden Cleaver

Berwick can attribute much of their success to Brayden Cleaver, who threw for 73 yards and two touchdowns. Those 73 passing yards gave Cleaver a new career-high.

Berwick was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 288 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they’ve now rushed for at least 214 rushing yards every time they’ve taken the field this season.

Meanwhile, Hanover Area put their dominant defense on display in the team’s third consecutive shutout on Friday. They claimed a resounding 63-0 victory over Greater Nanticoke Area. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Hawkeyes just coasted through the last quarter.

Berwick better keep an eye on Logan Richardson. He was instrumental in Hanover Area’s win, throwing for 190 yards and five TDs while completing 88.9% of his passes. Richardson’s passing game has become a key predictor of the Hawkeyes’…

NANTICOKE — The history of Nanticoke has been buried again — in terms of a time capsule.

In the city, there’s a time capsule in Patriot Square that was placed underground in 1976 to mark the nation’s bicentennial. The fate of one buried in 1876 remains a mystery — after it was unearthed during park renovations in 1912 and presumably reburied without records or a marker.

On Sunday, another box of Nanticoke history was interred.

To mark its 30th anniversary, the Nanticoke Historical Society buried a time capsule outside its headquarters near the Mill Memorial Library. It will be opened in 50 years.

“We have a penny because there probably won’t be a penny then,” said Judy Minsavage, vice president of the society.

The U.S. Mint will stop making pennies next year and they will be gradually taken out of circulation so those who open the capsule in 2075 might have never seen one, officials with the historical society said.

Books about the history of Nanticoke were placed in the time capsule, along with photos, 2025 utility bills, photos of modern day gas prices and many more contemporary things. There are nostalgic items about city icons like former Gov. John S. Fine and one-armed Major League Baseball player Pete Gray.

“Who knows what Nanticoke will be like in 50 years so we wanted to show them what it’s like now,” said society member Tania Gronkowski.

There are three longtime rivalries on the schedule as the Wyoming Valley Conference football completes its regular season Friday night.

There’s Lake-Lehman at Dallas in the Old Shoe Game, which dates back to 1958. The trophy itself goes even further back to 1948 when it was awarded to the best team in the Back Mountain.

Then there’s Nanticoke Area at Hanover Area in the Sans Souci Struggle, a moniker adopted in 2018. The schools first played under their current names in 1967 after several school mergers were completed. Nanticoke High School and Hanover High School, though, first played in 1920.

And finally, there’s Pittston Area at Wyoming Area which is called … well, it really doesn’t have a name. It’s just a game between cross-river rivals dating back to 1967. Still, it’s the best of the three Friday night.

Pittston Area and Wyoming Area both bring in 8-1 records, marking only the third time both teams enter the game with one loss. The other two occasions need asterisks.

The WVC and Lackawanna Conference merged for the 2000 and 2001 seasons to form the ill-fated Northeast Pennsylvania Football Conference. Pittston Area and Wyoming Area played Week 4 those years and each team was 2-1 those times.

There have been some oddities concerning final scores. Pittston Area won 7-5 in 1974 and 6-2 in 1989. The game has been decided by one point five times, with Wyoming Area winning three. The last seven meetings haven’t been close as the margin of victory has been double digits.

Here are some factors to consider in tonight’s game, which starts at 7 p.m.

Wicomico County, Md. — The Wicomico County Executive’s Office issued a statement on Facebook, regarding a recent filing by the Wicomico Environmental Trust, the Friends of the Nanticoke River, and local residents concerning the Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) storage tank on Porter Mill Road.

Luzerne County and PennDOT are reviewing the technical scope and price for the first phase of the Nanticoke/West Nantkcoke bridge project.

“Once the technical scope and price are finalized, Modjeski & Masters can start gathering data for options for repair/replacement,” County Manager Romilda Crocamo said Tuesday in a project update.

In August, PennDOT approved Modjeski and Masters Inc., county council’s selection, as the firm responsible for design engineering work on the closed Nanticoke/West Nanticoke Bridge. The Cumberland County firm designed the Carey Avenue replacement bridge that opened in 2002 over the Susquehanna River and links Hanover Twp. and Plymouth.

“Anticipated notice to proceed for the design team should occur in the November timeframe at which time the first phasing of scoping can begin,” Crocamo said.

The county owns the closed Nanticoke/West Nanticoke Bridge over the Susquehanna River and has been going through PennDOT’s process to select a design firm to determine how to repair, reconstruct or replace the bridge. That will allow the county to receive $10 million in federal project funding through the state Transportation Improvement Program.

On March 20, Crocamo closed the bridge over the Susquehanna River shortly after engineers conducting a scheduled routine bridge inspection determined advanced deterioration and section loss of primary, load-carrying components were critical deficiencies.

The bridge, built in 1914, links Nanticoke City to the West Nanticoke section of Plymouth Twp. The distance between the West Nanticoke/West Nanticoke Bridge and the next-closest bridge over the river, the Route 29 bridge connecting Hanover Twp. and Plymouth Twp., is more than one mile.

The county administration “will provide monthly updates on the project’s progress,” and officials “will continue to meet regularly with stakeholders to address any questions or feedback,” Crocamo said Tuesday.

County council members heard presentations from the top three highest ranked engineering firms interested…

Striped bass reproduction has remained below average in parts of the Chesapeake Bay since 2018, and this year is no different.

The annual juvenile striped bass surveys from Maryland and Virginia give insight as to how the next generation of striped bass will sustain the population. With continuing poor results, the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission is considering stronger catch limits.

Striped bass are top predators in the Bay and support commercial and recreational fishing. They are found along the East Coast from Canada to Florida, but they spawn and spend the first few years of their lives in the Bay.

The Virginia Institute of Marine Science has conducted its annual survey on striped bass since 1967. This year, scientists caught more than 1,000 juvenile striped bass at 18 sites in the Rappahannock, York and James rivers with a 100-foot seine net. Fish are captured, counted, measured and thrown back.

This year’s survey from Virginia recorded an average of 5.12 juvenile fish per seine net catch, which is below the historic average of 7.77. It’s slightly better than the last two years, but the survey hasn’t found the average level of reproduction since 2022.

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources sampled fish from 22 sites in the Choptank, Nanticoke and Potomac rivers and in the upper Bay. Maryland’s results were even more stark. This year, the young-of-year catch averaged four per seine haul, far below the historical average of 11. This marks the seventh year the striped bass juvenile population hasn’t met that threshold.

Carrie Kennedy, director of the Tidal and Coastal Monitoring and Assessment Division at the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, said she doesn’t think anyone…
