OK, via what rte.'s?  Don't believe everything Google or your Garmin tells you.  I wanna be the LEO with radar when you go by.  I used to run from the Ebensburg industrial park where I worked, to Cumberland hospital, nearly everyday.  It was between 50-55 minutes as I passed Meyersdale high school on my way, and believe me I was pushing the envelope at 72 mph in the 65 zones.  Same for going west from Ebensburg to Shelocta area.  Unless they opened some new super highway from WS to Meyersdale, you would come down 210 from the Dayton/ Rural Valley area to Elderton, pick up 422 to Ebensburg, then via 219 to Meyersdale.  I'd be interested to hear your route.
85 to 119 you can either catch 422 or 56 from there  both are about 100 miles that are not going to take you 3 hours to drive while driving the speed limit, more like 2 hours as I stated already.  I don't need a garmin or Google.  I drive everyday. Thanks for the heads up though

Is that allowing for any weather conditions like fog or snow this time of year, day or night travel, Amish horse n buggies, road construction slowdowns, lots of deer?  As I said before, I delivered to the hospitals, on a time-sensitive need and regularly cruised just above the speed limits to get the product there on time, every day for a number of years.  YOUR scenario is ideal conditions, mine is conservative and proven estimates.

Windber was a predetermined location, Shade isn't hosting the game at Windber.

Windber Stadium, along with the Point, were the traditional sites for the original Appalachian Bowl.

I'd rather see LV/Shade on turf. Two speed teams that air it out.

If Windber puts in a fairly large visitor bleacher, they'll have the premier stadium around. They'll have to add better parking, but they can hold large state playoff games and any track events.
