Why the Litwalk interview?

Post by Heaven&Hoops »

I was recently re-reading some of the PIAA basketball playoff articles in the Tribune-Democrat. Among those articles was one about Johnstown's preparation for the Western Semi-Finals and Finals. The writer interviewed former Johnstown coach Paul Litwalk about what John Fuschino will be going through in the coming days.

In the article, it mentioned that Litwalk won 4 District titles in 27 years at Johnstown. What is so incredible about that? Considering some of the teams and all of the talent he had at Johnstown, winning four District 6 championships isn't exactly hall-of-fame credentials.

The writer should have kept the article about the current Trojans, Litwalk had nothing to do with it.

I wondered about this myself!!!

Who gives a crap about winning Disrict 6-AAA or AAAA???

Ther were only 5 teams in the entire district in AAAA when he coached anyway!!!

I love it when Altoona and State College wear around their t-shirts with all of the years they won the 6-AAAA championship printed on the back!! I'm impressed that they beat out a field of 3 or 4!!! Give me a break!!

BTW, my Shaler Area Titans won the 6-AAAA championship this year, beating Altoona by a zillion on their home floor, then disposing of State College (ranked #2 in PIAA AAAA at the time) by 9 in their gym the very next evening, with no preparation time, State's only home loss in the last 4 seasons!

I am wondering if we should get t-shirts: "Shaler Area Titans...2004-2005 6-AAAA Champs!!!"
