WELL, ANOTHER GREAT SEASON COME TO AN END. THE LUMBERJACKS HAVE ONCE AGAIN PROVED THAT THEY ARE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH. THE TEAM THAT FOUGHT LIKE HELL TO GET ANYWHERE LAST YEAR HAD NO PROBLEM LOCKING UP THE TRI-COUNTY TITLE AND THE AUTOMATIC REGION 7 TOURNAMENT WITH RELATIVE EASE. THE JACKS FINISHED THE SEASON WITH A 33-12 RECORD. THE TEAM WILL BE BACK TO THREE-PEAT THE TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE NEXT YEAR. WITH A GOOD NUCLEUS RETURNING, LOCK HAVEN SHOULD BE POWERFUL. KEY PLAYERS RETURNING WILL BE BRIAN NESTOR, BRIAN RIPPEY, RICH MILLER, AND MATT BRIGGS. FIVE PLAYERS WILL BE MOVING ON FROM THIS TEAM. THIS YEAR'S DAVID GEYER MVP AWARD WINNER BUTCH RUDOLPH WILL BE MOVING ON TO BIG AND BETTER THINGS WITH THE LOCK HAVEN UNIVERSITY TEAM. BEN WEAVER WILL ALSO MOVE ON TO PLAY FOR MANSFIELD'S BASEBALL TEAM. TRAVIS WEAVER AND MATT LINBERG WILL ATTEND LOCK HAVEN THIS FALL. AND JIM MARCONI WILL RETURN TO SHIPPENSBURG FOR HIS SOPHOMORE YEAR. THE JACKS WILL BE LOOSING ALOT OF TALENT BUT SHOULD BE ABLE TO REPLENISH IT WITH THE YOUNGER PLAYERS RETURNING. THE TEAM WILL ALSO BE LOOSING IT'S BIGGEST ASSET IN COACH SCOTTY LLEWELLYN. SCOTT WILL BE CALLING IT A CAREER AFTER 19 SEASONS OF COACHING. HE COACHED LOCALLY WITH ROTARY OF THE LOCK HAVEN JUNIOR LEAGUE AS WELL AS THE LOCK HAVEN LEGION TEAM. IN HIS 19 YEARS OF COACHING, SCOTT NEVER SUFFERED A LOOSING SEASON. HE WILL BE DEARLY MISSED BY THE TEAM.
