Mounts hold off Bears


The ball sailed in from the corner during visiting Elizabethtown’s second-half siege in the Ephrata end Tuesday night, bouncing into a mass of humanity before the Bears’ Jake Sevcik punched a header toward the goal in the 55th minute.

Ephrata goalkeeper Cole Hummel launched himself toward the starlit sky, slapping the ball around the far post and out of bounds to keep a 2-1 lead intact. Hummel finished with 13 saves, the score held, and the defensive- minded Mountaineers claimed sole possession of first place in Lancaster-Lebanon League Section Two boys soccer race.

Mounts handle Bears


Mike Tyson loved to say, “Everybody’s got a plan, until they get punched in the mouth.”

Ephrata punched Elizabethtown in the mouth — figuratively — scoring 37 seconds into Tuesday night’s match at Jane Hoover Field.

It was the first of three first-half goals as the defending L-L Section Two girls soccer champion Mountaineers (3-0 league, 7-0 overall) outpaced the host Bears 5-1.

Sure, the 18-game winning streak had just come to an end, as did a magical season, in Monday’s PIAA Class 5A tournament opener.

However, these Mounts deserved the recognition for a Section Two title, a Lancaster-Lebanon League tournament crown and District Three championship.

Plus, Ephrata had just battled to the final strike against a Mars team with several Division I college commits, tying the game in the bottom of the eighth inning, before falling 3-2 in nine.

Mounts win District Title


FREDERICKSBURG — As Adrian Shelley walked to the bus, little did the Ephrata baseball coach know what was lurking behind him.

Turning to look back at Earl Wenger Field, Shelley caught a group of his players sneaking up on him, but all he could do was stop and accept the ice water being dumped on his head.

The Mounts weren’t ready to stop celebrating, and for good reason.

Led by a 3-for-3, three-RBI day from Tim Beever and a dominant start on the mound by Adam Schwartz, Ephrata upended defending champion Cedar Cliff, 4-2, in the District Three Class 5A championship.
