CHAMPIONS

The Lilly Raiders grade school football team has taken the Championship in their league for the 2009 season by defeating Glendale in a playoff game at the Lilly Field on Saturday, October 31^st.

It was a hard fought game between the two teams who both entered the game with undefeated season records. Lilly won 20-12 on a rain swept field. There was a nice turnout despite the rain and the sidelines looked like a gypsy village with the tents.

CONGRATULATIONS

Congratulations are in order for the perfect season attained by the Penn Cambria Junior High Team as they defeated Johnstown 45-0 this past week. This speaks well for the future of the Penn Cambria football team as these guys are perennial winners. Members of the team from the Lilly area include: Nathan Keagy, Nathan Przybys, and James Mardula. Tyler Prebish, Christian Sklodowski, Josh Nadolsky, AJ Leahey and Mack Behe.

GET WELL

Speedy recovery messages are sent to Tim McGarry of Lilly who recently came home from the hospital.
