Central and Beaver Falls was a great game. Beaver Falls did enough to shut down some of the Hoenstine machine and force Karstetter to throw more

I stated that SCA had IT but I just thought LV seniors would pull it off.  Side note. The Garcia boy should be a 10th grader. I know for a fact he "redshirted" a year when he attended Shamokin.  He lived in Shamokin school district till 2012 I think. He was held back a year as that is common at SHamokin- Mount Carmel and I also think Southern Columbia.  A lot of kids parents will have them repeat their 6th 7th or sometimes 8th grade year. So he is not 14 as he is I am thinking 16 yr old 9th grader.  he is not 14 or so.

If he is not 16 rt now he will before school is out in June.

If you repeat 7th or 8th grade your last year of eligibility is 11th grade.

Garcia is still 15, so that is not true. We have wrestled with them for years, and I know he is still 15. The younger brother, however, is old for his grade....so maybe you are thinking of him?

I was more or less just bringing up that he was red shirted and it is common in that part of the state. I think most have them repeat 6th grade year.  The kid is a stud and look for him to make a run at 4 trips to Hershey in wrestling for gold medals. His younger brother is also a fantastic athlete.

Was he legal to play yes, then who cares

Is junior high football and varsity football considered the same "sport"?
