MMI Preparatory School vs. Greater Nanticoke Area Trojans

Suggested Video

MMI Preparatory School is 2-8 against Greater Nanticoke Area since April of 2016 but they’ll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Wednesday. MMI Preparatory School will face off against the Greater Nanticoke Area Trojans at 4:15 p.m. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.

MMI Preparatory School can’t be to happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They fell just short of Shenandoah Valley by a score of 6-5.

MMI Preparatory School saw four different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Caleb Skuba, who scored a run while going 2-for-4. The dominant performance also gave Skuba a new career-high in doubles (two).

Meanwhile, Greater Nanticoke Area lost 13-4 to Holy Cross on Monday.

Ethan Ball was cooking despite his team’s loss, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 2-for-3.

MMI Preparatory School skirted past Greater Nanticoke Area 6-5 in their previous meeting back in May of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for MMI Preparatory School since the squad won’t have the home-field advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.

PA American Water issues boil water advisory for Customers in part of Nanticoke

Mar. 18—NANTICOKE — Pennsylvania American Water on Tuesday issued a boil water advisory for customers in part of Nanticoke due to a main break that affected a storage tank.

Approximately 75 customers are impacted.

Pennsylvania American Water experienced a loss in positive water pressure on Tuesday, March 18, due to a main break. A loss of positive water pressure is a signal of the existence of conditions that could allow contamination to enter the distribution system through back-flow by back-pressure or back-siphonage. As a result, there is an increased chance that the water might contain disease-causing organisms.

This notice applies to customers along the following streets:

—Vista Drive.

—Overlook Road.

—Industrial Park Road.

For a map of the affected area, visit http://alertsdetail.awapps.com/alert/78178.

The water company stated not to drink the water without boiling it first.

Bring all water to a rolling boil, let it boil for one minute, and cool before using — or use bottled water.

Affected customers should use boil or bottled water for drinking, making ice, washing dishes, brushing teeth and food preparation until further notice.

Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses and parasites, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea and associated headaches.

These symptoms are not caused only by organisms in drinking water, but also by other factors. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may wish to consult with your health care provider. People with severely compromised immune systems, infants and some elderly may be at increased risk. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers.

General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by microbes are available from EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.

Repairs were expected to be completed Tuesday evening.

Pennsylvania American Water will collect and analyze additional water quality samples including bacteria samples.

WVC prepares for softball season

There isn’t much change in terms of the Wyoming Valley Conference.

Tunkhannock will enter as the preseason favorite to capture the Division 1 title. Also in the division will be Pittston Area, Hazleton Area, Wilkes-Barre Area, Wyoming Valley West, Crestwood and Dallas.

Division 2 will come down to the two regular-season battles between Lake-Lehman and Holy Redeemer. Unless a divisional playoff is needed, it will be the only two meetings between the two rivals in 2025 as they are now in different classifications.

Also in Division 2 is Berwick, Wyoming Area, Greater Nanticoke Area, Hanover Area, Wyoming Seminary and MMI Prep. MMI returns back to the division after not fielding a team for the last few seasons.

There are some changes in the district for 2025.

Holy Cross, normally a Class 2A contender, is now down in Class 1A. Holy Redeemer, a Class 3A contender, drops down to Class 2A. Redeemer and Dunmore added to 2A, in addition to Elk Lake, should make for an interesting class.

Class 4A seems to be the toughest. While North Pocono moved up to Class 5A, Wallenpaupack is now in 4A. Put the Buckhorns with Tunkhannock, Valley View and what could be an improved Dallas team, and it looks to be the deepest division.

The other change is that West Scranton, a normal contender in Class 5A, moved into the Class 6A subregional.

Here is a look at the classes:

Class 1A: Forest City, Holy Cross, MMI Prep, Old Forge, Susquehanna.

Class 2A: Blue Ridge, Dunmore, Elk Lake, Holy Redeemer, Lackawanna Trail, Montrose, Mountain View, Wyoming Seminary.

Class 3A: Carbondale Area, Lake-Lehman, Lakeland, Mid Valley, Riverside, Western Wayne.

Class 4A: Berwick, Dallas, Hanover Area, Honesdale, Nanticoke Area, Scranton Prep, Tunkhannock, Valley View, Wallenpaupack, Wyoming Area

Class 5A: Abington Heights, Crestwood, Delaware Valley, North Pocono, Pittston Area.

Class 6A: Hazleton Area, Scranton High, West Scranton, Wilkes-Barre Area, Williamsport, Wyoming…

Crews Battle Brush Fire in Town of Nanticoke

Multiple crews were on the scene of a brush fire in the Town of Nanticoke just before 4 p.m. Wednesday.

The brush fire located on Pendell Hill Road was started by electrical wires rubbing against trees.

The flames were knocked down before spreading to nearby homes but came as close as 20 feet from a house.

A red flag warning has been in effect all day in the Southern Tier, and Glen Aubrey Fire Chief Gary Smith says it’s important to follow the rules on days like this.

“There’s a burn ban in effect for a reason. It’s dry, people think because we got a lot of rain the ground is wet, the stuff on top is not wet it’s still dry. Until these trees green up and the grass greens up you just gotta use your head. Don’t do it.”

Fire departments on scene include Glen Aubrey, the Town of Lisle, the Town of Maine, and Chenango Bridge. New York State Forest Rangers were also on scene.

No one was injured.

Overflowing Nanticoke Creek Cuts Off Town of Maine Residents For Several Hours

Nanticoke Creek overflowed Tuesday morning, washing out roadways and blocking the routes in and out of the Town of Maine. Highway Superintendent Joe Dohnalek says those waters did recede giving residents a way out of town in the late morning. A state of emergency was declared for the town, which saw the brunt of the flash flooding in Broome County. 

“Right now it’s just monitoring the water as it recedes and assessing the damage,” says the Director of Broome County Emergency Services Michael Ponticello. 

The Town of Maine fire station was center of operation for first responders and officials dealing with the Maine flooding. Police, Emergency Services, the town supervisor, County Executive Jason Garnar, and the highway department all using the station as a point of deployment to the affected areas of the town. Hopping in Highway Superintendent Joe Dohnalek’s truck, we were shown the places hit the hardest by the overnight flooding. 

Driving around the barriers put up on a still closed Nanticoke Ave, Dohnalek points out the window to his left, “See all this grass is muddy, the water up through here was about 4 feet deep.”

Overflowing Nanticoke Creek Cuts Off Town of Maine Residents For Several Hours

This portion of Nanticoke Ave was under about 4 feet of water on Thursday morning.

A black pickup truck is sitting in the middle of the road. Dohnalek says the driver tried to go through the washed out portion of Nanticoke Ave and stalled out. That truck is now a good reference point for how deep the water was just hours earlier. Dohnalek points out the license plate that is now crumpled up from the force of the water. “So, it was about up to the headlights,” says Dohnalek.

Just past that truck,…

Joseph “Big Joe” Vitale III – Wilkes-Barre Citizens’ Voice

Joseph “Big Joe” Vitale III OBITUARY

Joseph Big Joe Vitale III, 61, formerly of West Nanticoke, PA, and Honeybrook, PA, passed away, surrounded by family, on Wednesday, March 5, 2025, at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Hospital.

Joe lived a life defined by hard work, generosity, and unwavering love and support of family, nature, and craftsmanship.

Joe spent nearly 20 years working alongside the Amish in PA Dutch Country, sharing his farming techniques and deepening his connection to the land.

But as much as Joe loved his trade, his true passion was farming. He found joy in working his land in the Plymouth Flats, growing vegetables, and raising pigs, chickens, and rabbits. He was truly one with the land – hunting, fishing, and simply enjoying the outdoors every chance he got.

Joe never asked for much for himself but gave endlessly to others. He spent his teen years helping raise and watch over his nine younger siblings, serving as the built-in babysitter and keeping everyone in line. He was the first to show up at your door with freshly grown vegetables or meat from his farm, never expecting anything in return. He took care of everyone in his own quiet way, always giving more than he received.

Joe was a brother, an uncle, a mason, a farmer, and a man whose hands shaped both stone and soil. He…
