Osborne signs to play hockey at Hartwick College

2/21/2017

 
by Bud Hart

    Allyson Osborne doesn't look like a field hockey goalie.
    The Solanco senior, who stands no more than 5’-3” and weighs 125 pounds tops, impressed Anna Myer, head coach at Hartwick College. So much so that Osborne may be the incoming freshman goalkeeper Meyer needs.
    As a result the Solanco senior received a substantial grant to both guard the goal and matriculate in a subject yet to be determined.  Osborne was contacted by Meyer following the 2016 season and after visiting the Oneonta, N.Y., college, signed up in an early admission program most colleges and universities offer.

Dylan Hastings scored 1,000th point in Friday's home win over the Indians

by Bud Hart

    The Solanco boys saw their hopes for post season action slip away when the Ephrata Mountaineers handed them a 55-42 loss at Ephrata on Tuesday, January 31.
    Tied at the half at 24-all, the Mounts held the Mules to 18 points in the second half while pumping in 31. “We just were not able to get enough offensive production to win the game,” wrote head coach Scott Long. “Despite that fact Mike Worthington had a tremendous first half, scoring eight points and going five of six from the line.”  
    While the visiting Mules had seven players score, only one hit double digits.  Robbie McHugh led the team with 10 points followed by Dylan Hastings (9), Mike Worthington (8), Braden Redcay (6), Aaron Constein (4), Dan Siegrist (3) and Alec Munro (2).
