Snow plays havoc with basketball
The Keyser boys were on a bit of a roll winning 3 of their last five
games and giving number one Allegany all they could handle before falling in
the final minutes. The Keyser girls were struggling but you just had
the feeling that they could right the ship and turn things around. Then it
happened. Snow, snow, and more snow! Since February 5 the girls have
had 6 games cancelled and the boys have been locked off the hardwood for 8
e-i-g-h-t games. The only consolation is that with just a few games
left before section play starts, all the competition is having the
same problem with cancelled games and practices.

Homecoming game at Alumni Stadium on Friday, Oct. 9. Manchin made
pre-game visits with both Keyser and Berkeley Springs coaches and players,
offering words of encouragement and sportsmanship. His schedule didn't allow
him to stay for the game, but the governor took time to address the crowd,
shake lots of hands, and accept an honorary Keyser football jersey.
The Indians won the coin toss but the Golden Tornado dominated the game with
a 56-17 win. Read Michael Minnich's

Frankfort ranked Number 6 in state
Decisive wins over Grafton and Berkeley
Springs
The Frankfort Falcons have outscored their opponents 149-34 in their first
three games of the season and have earned the recognition of pundits
with a sixth place spot in the Charleston
Daily Mail poll. After drubbing state champ
Grafton 42-7 in their second game of the year, the Falcons overwhelmed
the
Indians 50-7. This week, Frankfort travels to Garrett county to
take on the Northern Huskies--likely to be the next victim of the Falcon's
potent offense and stingy defense. Above: QB James Jones hands off to
fullback Daniel McCormick, who took it 73-yards for a TD against Grafton.

Frankfort routs Liberty 57-20
Scoring on every possession but their last, the Frankfort Falcons
overwhelmed Liberty-Harrison 57-20 in their season-opening game at Falcon
Stadium. Jeremy Miltenberger ran for a 3-yard TD and took a punt
return 59-yards to the house. Veteran QB James Jones was 3-for-3 with
touchdown tosses to Joey Luciw and Logan Wolford. Dalton Brown, Ben
Brown, and Michael Deetz all scored touchdowns. Next week:
Grafton. At home. We can't wait. (Above) Teammates get psyched over
the helmet-jarring hit that Jeremy Miltenberger (22) put on a Liberty kick
returner.

Frankfort set to open season
Liberty will have a tough start to a busy Labor Day weekend, facing
Frankfort on Friday night at Falcon Stadium and then traveling to Morgantown
for a nooner with the Mountaineers on Saturday. We expect Frankfort
will soften them up so the Mounties can have their way with them.
Wait, you say they're two different teams? My bad.
The Falcons sat out the first week of the season with a bye, so you know
that the boys are anxious to get onto the field for their season opener
against Liberty High School. Seniors Jeremy Miltenberger (22), James
Jones (14), Dalton Brown (40) and Logan Wolford (11) hope to provide the
leadership and the play-making that will push the Falcons into the playoffs.
Good luck Falcons!
Keyser has rough road schedule
Hopes to overcome disappointing loss at
Wayne
The Golden Tornado has a bye the second week of the season after
making the long-distance road trip to Wayne and dropping their season opener
22-0
(story). The week off will give the Tornado an opportunity to
regroup and reload before they have to hit the road again, this time to
Cumberland to take on the perennial tough guys at Fort Hill. Count on the
seniors pictured above to get the "K" headed in the right direction before
they storm into the new Alumni Stadium at Tornado Alley for their first home
game on Sept. 18 when they play host to the Northern Huskies.
