WEST PITTSTON — Wyoming Area combined three quick strikes on offense with repeated, sturdy defensive efforts Friday night to fight off an impressive performance by short-handed Nanticoke Area and remain undefeated with a 35-13 home-field victory in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2 game.
The Warriors used the win on Military Appreciation Night to improve to 2-0 in the division and 4-0 overall.
Nanticoke Area held the ball for 16:44 of the 24 first-half minutes, but trailed 21-0 when Wyoming Area scored on three possessions that combined to last 1:02. Taking over in Trojans territory each time, the Warriors scored on possessions that lasted two plays, one play and one play.
The Warriors held on downs on a first-quarter drive that started at the Wyoming Area 4 and a second-quarter drive that advanced to their 5.
“If we didn’t stand on those two plays, we’re in a one-score game down the stretch,” Warriors coach Randy Spencer said.
Spencer was impressed that Nanticoke Area was in position to put up such a fight while at less than full strength.
Already going the bulk of the season without quarterback Payton Kepp for the second straight year, the Trojans also were without leading rusher Zack Fox, one of the WVC’s top running backs, Friday. Fox was in uniform, but without a helmet, watching the game from the sideline.
“I want to give all the credit in the world to Nanticoke Area tonight,” Spencer said. “They came in with one arm and two legs tied behind their backs with Payton being out earlier with the ACL – our thoughts and prayers go out to him – and also Fox not being able to play. Those are two really talented players who certainly would have made a difference in this game.
“That being the case,…

Powerful thunderstorms swept across the central and northeastern regions of Pennsylvania on Thursday, strewing debris in their wake and leaving tens of thousands of people powerless, including several thousand in our region.
The Luzerne County Fair in Dallas closed early for the night “due to damage from the recent storm and a power outage,” a post on the fair’s Facebook page said. The fair is expected to reopen on Friday.
“We’re currently trying to restore power on the fairgrounds and we are actively cleaning up debris after today’s storm that significantly displaced many of our vendors,” the post said. “What a storm it was.”
The storms also caused darkness to descend on the area hours before sundown, with cars turning their headline on before 5 p.m. amid the downpours.
Fallen trees brought down powerlines in several areas, notably along Main Street in Nanticoke.
As of 5 p.m., PPL and UGI reported thousands of outages in NEPA and other parts of their coverage areas elsewhere in Pennsylvania. According to our newsgathering partners at WBRE/WYOU, more than 15,000 people were left without power statewide.

SCRANTON- The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Reynard Lewis, age 30, formerly of Nanticoke, Pennsylvania, was sentenced by United States District Judge Robert D. Mariani to 42 months of imprisonment, for wire fraud conspiracy and aggravated identity theft offenses.
According to United States Attorney Gerard M. Karam, Lewis and his coconspirators used stolen identities to create forged identification documents and credit and debit cards. The conspirators used those forged items and stolen identities to open bank accounts, apply for lines of credit, and obtain retail merchandise. The conspirators also used the stolen identities to apply for multiple COVID-19 pandemic relief loans issued under the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), including by submitted false federal tax documentation. The conspirators allegedly received over $100,000 in pandemic stimulus funds.
The PPP is designed to help small businesses facing financial difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic. Funded by the March 2020 CARES Act, PPP funds are offered in forgivable loans, provided that certain criteria are met, including use of the funds for employee payroll, mortgage interest, lease, and utilities expenses.
Lewis previously was charged in a criminal complaint and arrested on September 16, 2022. He has remained in detention since his arrest. Lewis’s alleged coconspirator, Robert Brownstein, age 51, of Scranton, Pennsylvania, was previously charged in a criminal information with wire fraud conspiracy and aggravated identity theft.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office, and the Pottsville Bureau of Police. Assistant U.S. Attorney Phillip J. Caraballo is prosecuting the case.
On May 17, 2021, the Attorney General established the COVID-19 Fraud Enforcement Task Force to marshal the resources of the Department of Justice in partnership with agencies across government to enhance efforts to combat and prevent pandemic-related…
