Nanticoke Area didn’t have to look far to find someone with extensive head coaching experience to take over its football program.
The school board voted 8-0 Thursday night to hire Scott Dennis, a Nanticoke Area assistant who previously had been a head coach at two schools. Board president Tony Prushinski didn’t attend the board meeting.
Dennis takes over for Ron Bruza, who resigned shortly after Nanticoke Area completed a 7-5 season, its first winning record since 2018, and played in the District 2 Class 4A playoffs.
Bruza coached Nanticoke Area for 14 seasons, compiling a 70-85 record. He inherited a program which was 1-29 over its previous three seasons and coached the Trojans to four appearances in the Eastern Conference playoffs and three in the District 2 playoffs.
Dennis began his head coaching career at Holy Redeemer in 2014, finishing with a 4-16 record in two season. He then left to coach Central Columbia.
After Central Columbia finished 4-6 in 2016, Dennis coached the Blue Jays to four consecutive winning records. They lost in the District 2 Class 2A semifinals to Southern Columbia in 2017 and the D2-3A semifinals to Loyalsock in 2019. Central Columbia also lost in the D4-2A quarterfinals in 2018.
Central Columbia finished 5-3 in a 2020 season shortened because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Blue Jays struggled in Dennis final season at the helm in 2021, finishing 3-7 and being shut out four times.
Dennis finished with a 36-27 record at Central Columbia. Nanticoke Area athletic director Ken Bartuska said four candidates were interviewed.
Nanticoke Area is the second Wyoming Valley Conference team which will have a new head coach in 2024. Joe DeLucca was hired in mid-January to replace Nick Barbieri at Pittston Area. Barbieri retired following…
During an informational meeting Monday, state and federal representatives agreed to assist Luzerne County in seeking additional funding for the Nanticoke/West Nanticoke Bridge.
County officials are exploring options because the county-owned span over the Susquehanna River was downgraded to a 15-ton weight limit in 2020 due to issues found in an inspection.
The partial replacement recommended by Alfred Benesch and Associates would cost an estimated $39.6 million. The company was hired by the county to study the bridge and determine the “best and most economical option.”
Some local officials are pushing for full replacement, which would cost $64 million based on the engineer’s estimate.
The county has access to $55 million from casino gambling revenue, which means another $9 million would have to be found if a council majority chooses a new bridge.
Council Chairman John Lombardo also pointed out Monday that using the entire $55 million casino-funded infrastructure pool on the Nanticoke/West Nanticoke bridge would leave no funds to cover other projects that had been on the county’s list for completion if funds remained.
These projects: Main Road in Hunlock and Ross townships; Lower Demunds Road and Upper Demunds Road in Dallas and Franklin townships; Ransom Road in Dallas and Franklin townships; Church Road in Wright Township; Oak Hill Road and Crestwood Drive in Wright Township; Old Airport Road in Butler Township; and Hanover Street in Hanover Township.
Lombardo said the partial replacement option recommended by Benesch addresses the same safety issues and weight loads as the new bridge option but costs less.
The Benesch-recommended plan would replace the three truss spans with four new steel bridge spans on new piers, replace the beams and deck on the 21 approaching spans and repair existing piers and abutments.
With this option, the…
Overnight snow didn’t stop folks in Luzerne County from getting Mardi Gras goodies.
NANTICOKE, Pa. — It was a messy morning that called for a cleanup on the streets of Nanticoke. But the overnight snow wasn’t going to stop people from coming to Sanitary Bakery on East Ridge Street, no matter the amount.
“There was eight inches of snow up there, and thankfully my son-in-law got some of it this morning,” said Bernard Witkawski of Glen Lyon.
“Doesn’t stop me, type of job I have. You know, I just got done shoveling and came here for a little snack going to go on my merry way now,” said Michael Nice of Nanticoke.
“I came for the fastnacht and the paczki before they go and you have to fast after that,” explained Theodore Wiaterowski of Nanticoke.
Some have a long-standing relationship with this traditional pastry.
“I like both the prune and the raspberries, so I took a little of each,” said Wiaterowski.
Others are new to its coveted goodness.
“I grew up down in South Carolina and we never knew about paczki,” said Victoria Kingeter, who began working at the bakery in October.
Something many had in common was that their purchases on Fat Tuesday were for sharing—some with coworkers and health care workers.
“Yeah, well, we’ll see. If I don’t eat them on the way there,” said Nice.
“Got to get it up there to the Geisinger Heart Hospital,” said Witkawski.
“I am taking a dozen of each to the bank who I deal with, then I will share with my cousins,” said Wiaterowski. “Maybe I’ll get a discount on my loan or something.”
Customers say something this good shouldn’t be kept a secret.
Diamonds to Transfiguration of Our Lord Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Nanticoke for not only honoring their Myasopusna celebration through a dinner of Ukrainian dishes, but also by bringing a lively and impressive dancing troupe decked in colorful folk costumes. The limited seating venue of the church’s community hall was understandably sold out, and the crowd got to watch the Kazka Ukrainian Folk Ensemble Dancers and a younger but equally talented group known as St. Mary’s Traditional Ukrainian Dancers. From the opening promenade of young ladies proffering a loaf of golden brown bread to the everybody-dance finale of the Hopak (the Ukrainian national dance), they alternated between elegant and athletic, demonstrating history and folklore, and in general just making the evening memorable. Kudos all around.
Coal to all those who mar Wilkes-Barre (and other municipalities) with what sometimes seems an endless assault of small signs promoting their own little business operations. City Councilman Tony Brooks was right in saying the signage “junks up the city.” The advertisements for things like “Cash for diabetics test strips, sensors and more,” “Record Fair,” and even personal garage sales might not be too grating if they were fewer and far between, but they have become ubiquitous and redundant, and as Brooks also noted, when they are stapled to poles they often leave the staples behind even after being removed. City Attorney Tim Henry was right when he said an ordinance against the signs would be nearly unenforceable, but Brooks suggested another tactic: Contact the sign owners directly to voice your complaint. If the advertising effort backfires, those behind the signs may decide to stop.
Diamonds to the two exercise activities highlighted in Wednesday’s paper: The…
