LITTLE LEAGUE: Hanover, GWA win district Major Softball championships

Stella Styczen tossed a no-hitter with nine strikeouts to lead Hanover to its first District 16 Majors Softball championship with a 9-0 win over Pittston on Friday night at Nanticoke Little League field.

The teams had to wait out an approximate two-hour rain delay with two outs in the bottom of the second inning with the score tied at 0.

Hanover scored four runs in the top of the fourth when Gianna Pericci reached on a walk and stole second. Jillian Weidner was safe on a ball hit to the left side of the infield moving Pericci to third. Weidner then stole second. Styczen doubled to the base of the fence in left to score two runs to make it 2-0.

Paisley Hliwski singled to right to score Styczen to make it 3-0 before Hliwski scored on the backend of the double steal for the fourth run of the inning.

Styczen remained in control in the circle, limiting any sort of damage the Pittston offense tried to come up with.

Hanover put the game away in the top of the sixth when Ellie Malloy began a rally with a single to right. Gianna Pericci was safe on a bunt to put runners on first and second.

Weidner then delivered an RBI single before Styczen roped a two-run triple to the warning track in right-center for a 7-0 lead.

Gabbi Pericci singled home the eighth run of the game while a bases loaded walk to Lily Benson to score Hanover’s final run of the game.

Hanover will host next week’s Section 5 tournament at the Ashley Little League complex.

Nanticoke man identified as victim in shooting at Hazleton restaurant

A man who died during a shooting inside a Hazleton restaurant on May 25 was identified a month later as 30-year-old Jeuris Sanchez Alvarez, Laura Dennis, assistant solicitor for Luzerne County, said.

An obituary said Sanchez lived in Nanticoke and was born in the Dominican Republic.

He was buried in Maple Hill Cemetery in Hanover Twp. on May 29, although his obituary didn’t mention how or where he died.

Other records indicate that Sanchez previously lived in Hazleton

The shooting happened inside Sazon Latino 2 restaurant, 921 Alter St., where Sanchez was unresponsive when police arrived, according to a probable cause affidavit that said he was pronounced dead at a hospital shortly afterward.

Police haven’t identified another man who was shot through the left knee, but the affidavit said he was sitting up when officers arrived and later flown to a trauma center.

After the shooting, police charged Jose Sandoval Perez with recklessly endangering another person, carrying a firearm without a license and theft of a firearm.

A criminal complaint charging Sandoval Perez with recklessly endangering another person said he fired multiple rounds that struck two people inside an occupied establishment, but he has not been charged with homicide.

Sandoval Perez, 26, is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on July 18 at 9 a.m. in Luzerne County Central Court. He has been in Luzerne County prison since the shooting after being denied bail by District Judge James Dixon of West Hazleton

The case is still being investigated, according to the county’s district attorney, Dennis said in an email sent to the Standard-Speaker in response to a request made through Pennsylvania’s Right To Know Law on June 9 for the victim’s identity, manner of death and cause of death.

Nanticoke Area secures third straight year with no tax hike

The Greater Nanticoke Area Board of Education adopted a nearly $45 million budget for the 2025-26 school year Thursday, securing residents a third consecutive year without a tax hike.

Board of Education President Tony Prushinsk said he was “elated” about the avoidance of a tax hike, according to a statement the district issued Thursday.

The adopted budget schedules $44.68 million in expenditures and collects $44.11 million in revenue. It imposes a property tax of $12.8083 per $1,000 of assessed valuation in the 2025-26 school year, the same rate the district had in the two years prior. A Nanticoke Area homeowner with a homestead property assessed at the median value of $76,300 would face a tax bill of $977.27 at this rate.

The proposed final budget posted online indicates that homeowners would be collectively eligible for $1.23 million worth of homestead exclusion for taxes on certain, owner-occupied properties. The homestead exclusion this year is worth $25,584.19 per homestead, which at a millage of 12.8083 would save each Nanticoke Area homeowner $327.69 on their taxes.

The school board also enacted Thursday two per-capita taxes of $5 each, a 0.5% tax on earned incomes and profits, a 0.5% tax on real estate transfers, and a $5 local service tax on workers in Greater Nanticoke.

Helping to make this revenue go as far as it can, the school board took a separate vote Thursday to establish a pair of special-education classrooms at the Kennedy Early Childhood Center and a third such classroom at Nanticoke Area High School. Superintendent Ronald Grevera said the new classrooms would allow for students who are autistic or in emotional-support programs to stay in district, eliminating nearly $1 million in costs associated with finding those students an outside placement.

Nanticoke Area is not alone in trying to reduce special education…

NY weather: Flash flood warning for Broome and Tioga counties until Sunday midday triggered by thunderstorms

On Sunday at 9:12 a.m. a flash flood warning was released by the National Weather Service in effect until 12:15 p.m. for Broome and Tioga counties.

“At 9:12 a.m., Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms producing heavy rain across the warned area. Between 1 and 2 inches of rain has already fallen. Flash flooding is ongoing or expected to begin shortly,” says the weather service. “Flash flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas, highways, streets and underpasses as well as other poor drainage and low-lying areas.”

Locations impacted by the warning include Binghamton, Johnson City, Endicott, Honesdale, Montrose, Greater Binghamton Airport, Vestal, Kirkwood, Conklin, Damascus, Susquehanna, Forest City, Nanticoke, Susquehanna Depot, Harford, Berkshire, Cochecton, Waymart, Hallstead and Richford.

The weather service adds, “Turn around, don’t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood deaths occur in vehicles.”

Your guide to weather alerts: advisories, watches, and warnings

  • Flash flood warning: Take action!

A flash flood warning is issued when a flash flood is imminent or occurring. If you are in a flood-prone area, move immediately to high ground.
