Times LeaderMid Valley finally got on the board Friday night with a field goal with 36 seconds left until halftime.
The way Wyoming Area’s offense was clicking, that was more than enough time to strike again.
The Warriors did so, making it five first-half possessions and five touchdowns in a 55-11 rout of Mid Valley in a District 2 Class 3A semifinal game.
Wyoming Area (9-2) will play at five-time defending D2-3A champion Scranton Prep (10-1) at 7 p.m. Friday for the title at a site to be determined.
A 20-yard swing pass from Luke Kopetchny to Michael McKernan with 12 seconds left in the half gave Wyoming Area a 35-3 lead. The Warriors tacked on three more scores to reach at least 55 points for the third time in their last five games. “Solid,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “We were able to run the ball very well. We were opportunistic throwing the ball, a couple big plays. Defensively, throughout the game we played well against the run and situations against the pass and we had one turnover on the interception.”
Wyoming Area used a one-two punch from its backfield to rush for 154 yards in the first half.
Running back Nicholas Kondrosky did most of the work in the first quarter, rushing for 93 of his game-high 111 yards. He scored the first TD on a 57-yard run.
Running back Dominic Bartell was the main ball-carrier in the second quarter, rushing for 44 yards. He finished with 85 on the ground and would have gone over 100 but had a long touchdown run wiped out by a holding penalty.
Kopetchny ran for three consecutive touchdowns on runs of 1, 5 and 1 yard as Wyoming Area built a 28-0 lead before Mid Valley (6-5) got a 37-yard field goal from Sean Patchcoski.
Kopetchny also threw a 44-yard completion to David Favata on the first play from scrimmage after the Mid Valley field goal. He and Favata connected on a 40-yard pass during the fourth scoring drive.
Mid Valley did stop Wyoming Area on its initial possession of the third quarter, but the Warriors got a favorable bounce on a punt by Hudson Sharpe that pinned the Spartans at their own 8-yard line.
Mid Valley fumbled on its first play and Wyoming Area’s Jordan Rosario recovered at the 2. Kondrosky scored on the next play for a 41-3 advantage.
Lavell Brock scored on a 45-yard run and Antavione Randall scored on a 21-yard run in the fourth quarter as Wyoming Area build its lead to 55-3 with four minutes remaining.
Wyoming Area defeated Mid Valley 38-20 in Week 4 where a couple late Spartan touchdowns made the final score closer than it was. “It’s win or go home,” Spencer said, “but it’s also the last opportunity for the seniors to play on this field and for this team to play on this field. That was important and impactful.”
Citizens Voice The mission was a simple one for Wyoming Area. That mission was to control the line of scrimmage.
It was accomplished as the Warriors ran for 295 yards and seven touchdowns on their way to a 55-11 victory in the District 2 Class 3A semifinal over Mid Valley Spartans on Friday at Jake Sobeski Stadium.
The win puts Wyoming Area in the district championship next week against No. 1 Scranton Prep, which handled Lake-Lehman, 51-12.
Nick Kondrasky led the way for Wyoming Area, gaining 111 yards and scoring twice.The Warriors defense forced a Spartans punt on the initial possession of the game, and the offense found the end zone as Kondrasky took the snap, burst up the middle, and outraced the Spartan defenders for the early lead.
Wyoming Area’s Luke Kopetchny thwarted the next Mid Valley drive as he intercepted an errant Spartans pass. Kondrasky’s 23-yard jaunt gave the Warriors the ball deep inside Mid Valley territory on the Warriors’ ensuing possession. Facing fourth down from the 1-yard line, Kopetchny followed the middle of the Warriors line, and burst through the middle to increase the lead.
After the Spartans turned the ball over on down, Wyoming Area covered 31 yards in seven plays as Kopetchny called his own number, and sprinted five yards off left tackle as Wyoming Area tacked onto its lead.
After another Mid Valley punt gave possessions back to Wyoming Area, Kopetchny hit David Favata with a 40-yard pass to push the ball down to the 6. Three plays later, Kopetchny added his second 1-yard touchdown to put the Warriors up four scores.
Mid Valley broke onto the scoreboard late in the second quarter, moving the ball 31 yards in seven plays. Faced with a fourth down from the 20, Sean Patchkosky connected on a 37-yard field goal to trim the lead back to 28-3.
But Wyoming Area put together a drive in 36 seconds to punch its fifth touchdown into the end zone.
Kopetchny connected with Favata for a 45-yard gain, and later, Kopetchny faked a handoff to Michael McKernan, and hit a wide-open McKernan with a 20-yard scoring strike as Wyoming Area took a 35-3 lead into halftime.
The Warriors pushed the game into the mercy rule early in the third quarter where Jordan Rosario stripped the ball away from a Mid Valley runner at the 2-yard line, and Kondrasky punched in his second touchdown for the 42-3 edge.
Lavell Brock’s 45-yard score boosted the lead to 48-3 with nine minutes, and Antavione Randall scooted 21 yards for the Warriors’ seventh rushing TD of the night.
Mid Valley’s lone score came from Simpson Burridge, who scored from 2 yards out with 1:07 left to set the final score.

Week 10 Oct 30, 2026: Warriors Defeat Pittston Area 28-20
Times LeaderThe Pittston Area Patriots have learned the hard way about the resilience of the football team from across the river.
Wyoming Area scored the game’s final 28 points to rally from a double-digit deficit for the second straight year to pull out Friday night’s 28-20 road victory at Charley Trippi Stadium in the regular-season finale between Wyoming Valley Conference divisional champions on winning streaks.
The Warriors (8-2) ran their winning streak to seven games going into next week’s home playoff game, likely against Mid Valley, in the District 2 Class 3A semifinals. The Patriots (6-4) had a five-game winning streak broken, but will still play for the District 2 Class 5A title Friday night at Abington Heights.
Luke Kopetchny, who has been a two-way starter in four straight Wyoming Area victories, earned the 49th annual Carmelo Falcone Award as the Most Valuable Player in the six-decade old rivalry.
Kopetchny’s 63-yard fumble return 20 seconds before halftime started the comeback from a 20-0 deficit. He later ran for an insurance touchdown and passed for the clinching score during a 21-point third quarter. “I knew we could flip the switch right there,” Kopetchny said of the fumble return. “Coming out of halftime, we had some momentum and I feel like that’s what won us the game right there.”
After being outgained 258-53 in the first half, Wyoming Area had a 122-10 advantage in total yardage in a third quarter that included a Lavell Brock recovery of a mishandled kickoff and a Maddox Fink interception on a fake punt.
By the time the quarter ended, the Warriors had their 28-20 lead.
They then held on in the fourth, stopping the Patriots on downs at the 26 with 5:45 left and the 22 with 1:26 remaining. “There was a lot of great football played on both sides of the ball tonight,” Warriors coach Randy Spencer said. “For me, it’s about the belief and togetherness of this football team. “We talk so much about the pride of our program, our standards, our values. We stand on our character and this team stood tall on those standards tonight.”
With Santino Capitano running the game as Pittston Area’s primary quarterback for the first time since an injury in the first half of the season, the Patriots were rolling.
Capitano was 5-for-5 passing with a touchdown and ran for two scores on the way to a 103-yard rushing effort while doing much of the work in producing the 20-0 lead.
Pittston Area scored on the game’s second play.
Capitano faked one of the team’s base plays, a jet sweep, then turned and threw in the other direction. He hit speedster Deondre Miller on a slant pass and Miller did the rest for a 62-yard touchdown and 6-0 lead.
The Patriots scored on their first three possessions, all before the Warriors had their initial first down.
After having a holding penalty wipe out a 57-yard Lucas LoPresto run, the Patriots covered 77 yards in 13 plays to score on Capitano’s two-yard run to make it 12-0 with 1:09 left in the second quarter.
The Patriots moved 59 yards in 11 plays for another Capitano two-yard touchdown. Miller added the two-point run to make it 20-0 with 6:12 left in the half.
Pittston Area threatened to add to its lead late in the half when Capitano ran 40 yards on second-and-19 and LoPresto picked up 13 more on the next play.
Instead, the entire game shifted when Drew Keating poked the ball loose and Gavin Feeney helped bring the runner to the ground, leaving the ball free for Kopetchny to take the other way for a touchdown. “I just saw Luke come out of the pile with it,” Spencer said. “It was an absolutely a momentum-shifting play for us. “Once we got it going from that play, we really did let go of the momentum even going into and coming out of the half.”
It was Wyoming Area that scored on its first three possessions in the second half.
The Warriors took the kickoff and went 60 yards with the help of a 25-yard Kopetchny pass to Michael McKernan on third-and-20. Two plays later, Nicholas Kondrosky scored on a 12-yard run.
Pittston Area could not handle Ava Musinski’s well-placed kickoff and Brock recovered.
The Patriots, who were hurt by 106 yards in penalties, helped the Warriors with a15-yard face mask penalty and another personal foul.
Kopetchny scored from the one-yard line and Musinski officially put the Warriors in front with the third of her four extra-point kicks.
Fink’s interception put Wyoming Area at the Pittston Area three-yard line. The Warriors moved to the 12 quickly then scored when Kopetchny’s pass into the end zone bounced off of a tightly covered Brock and wound up in the hands of Lucas Viadock for the touchdown.
Keating and Connor Grochal were each in on two stops to half one Pittston Area fourth-down threat. Grochal made one tackle for a loss and assisted Keating on another.
Brad Bohn stopped LoPresto two yards short on fourth down with an assist from Viadock, another freshman, on Pittston Area’s last offensive play.
Citizens Voice One play triggered an enormous momentum shift Friday night.
Wyoming Area looked hapless for almost 24 minutes of football, unable to gain yardage and incapable of stopping Pittston Area as the halftime break approached.
But just before the cross-river rivals entered their locker rooms, Luke Kopetchny returned a fumble 63 yards to put Wyoming Area on the board.
That electric play sparked a run of four unanswered touchdowns as the Warriors rallied to a 28-20 victory over the Patriots at Charley Trippi Stadium.
The Warriors (8-2) trailed, 20-0, with less than a minute to go until halftime, and Pittston Area (6-4) had marched across midfield again looking to extend the lead.
That’s when Drew Keating and Gavin Feeney combined to wrap up Deondre Miller and strip the football. There was a slight pause before Kopetchny realized the play wasn’t dead, scooped it off the natural grass surface, and dashed toward the end zone.
“Some people thought he was down, but he ended up not being down. Big momentum swing for us,” Kopetchny said. “I’m not listening for (a whistle), I’m just going to play until they tell me to stop.”
Wyoming Area scored on its next three possessions and its defense and special teams made some game changing plays, holding the Patriots to zero second-half points and completing the comeback.
Kopetchny notched a hat trick, scoring one rushing and one passing touchdown in addition to the fumble return, which rightfully earned him the Carmelo Falcone Award as the annual rivalry game’s Most Valuable Player.
“I knew we could flip the switch right there,” Kopetchny said. “Coming out of halftime we had some momentum, and I feel like that’s what won us the game.”
Wyoming Area opened the second half with a 10-play, 60-yard drive on the back of Kopetchny and Nicholas Kondrosky, who paced the Warriors with 57 yards on 12 carries. Kopetchny connected with Michael Mckernan on passes of 15 and 25 yards to extend the drive, and Kondrosky capped it with a 12-yard run to cut the deficit to 20-14.
On the ensuing kickoff, Lavell Black recovered a loose ball on a blooping kick to steal another possession. Four plays later, Kopetchny took a quarterback sneak 2 yards for the game-tying touchdown.
Ava Musinski, who hit 4-of-4 extra points, knocked the PAT through to give Wyoming Area its first lead of the night, 21-20, with 5:33 left in the third quarter. It was a lead the Warriors would not relinquish.
“Once we got it going from that play, we really didn’t let go of the momentum coming in and out of the half,” Wyoming Area head coach Randy Spencer said of the fumble and 20-point comeback. “Tremendous effort tonight.”
The Warriors settled into a run-heavy offense and played ball control for the second half, just as Pittston Area did to them in the first half.
The Patriots were offered just three possessions in the second half, resulting in an interception and two turnovers on downs. The first turnover came when Lucas LoPresto stepped in at punter and threw a desperation pass on fourth-and-15, and Maddox Fink caught and returned the interception to set up a short field for the Warrior offense.
Four plays later, Kopetchny, who completed 3 of 5 passes for 52 yards, threw a bullet into the end zone and Lucas Viadock caught the tipped pass, extending Wyoming Area’s lead to the final 28-20 margin with seven seconds left in the third quarter.
Wyoming Area was afforded only three possessions in the first half – two three-and-outs and a turnover on downs.
“We really didn’t even have a gauge offensively of what we could or should do off of six or eight plays,” Spencer said. “We needed that momentum shifting play, we got it, and from there we were able to get into the flow of the game.”
Even without its leading rusher in Jude Ferentino, Pittston Area started hot. Quarterback Santino Capitano connected with Miller for a 62-yard catch-and-run to take a 6-0 lead just 1:24 into the game.
Capitano, who passed for 82 yards and ran for 104, scored the next two Pittston Area touchdowns on identical quarterback sneaks, each from 2 yards out.
The first series was a 13-play, 68-yard drive that chewed 7:36 off the first-quarter clock, giving the Patriots a 12-0 advantage with 1:12 left in the period. Both point-after tries had failed to that point.
The Patriots followed that up with an 11-play, 59-yard drive capped by Capitano’s second rushing touchdown, and Pittston Area’s sideline was buzzing after Miller’s two-point conversion run extended the lead to 20-0 midway through the second quarter.
Pittston Area tried to catch the Warriors off guard with an onside kick, but the Warriors recovered. Wyoming Area then drove into Patriot territory but turned the ball over on downs inside the red zone.
Capitano raced for a 40-yard gain late in the first half as Pittston Area looked to put a nail in the coffin, but two plays later Kopetchny’s fumble return changed the game.
“Obviously, it didn’t end the way we wanted it to end,” Pittston Area head coach Paul Russick said. “We started real strong there. The end of the second quarter and start of the third kind of imploded and it was too much for us to come back from.”
The positive outlook for Pittston Area after this gut-wrenching loss is that it had already punched its playoff ticket and clinched the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 1 title ahead of Friday night.
Pittston Area will be the No. 2 seed in a two-team District 2 Class 5A playoff bracket, heading north to play Abington Heights (6-4) in the title game next week.
Wyoming Area also had its postseason fate decided, as the WVC Division 3 champions were locked into the No. 2 seed in the District 2 Class 3A playoffs. The Warriors will ride their seven-game win streak into a home game against No. 3 Mid Valley (6-4) in the four-team bracket.

Times LeaderThe Wyoming Area Warriors can once again call themselves champions.
One year removed from a season that featured a 9-1 overall regular-season record but no titles to show for it, the Warriors have run off six straight wins, including Friday night’s 63-21 romp over Nanticoke to clinch the Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3 title. “I’m excited for the seniors to secure a division championship,” Warriors coach Randy Spencer said. “We played high-level football last season, but were not able to call ourselves champions. For those guys that were significant players on that team last year, I thought it was very special to them to get that done this week, going into a very special rivalry game next week.”
The Warriors (7-2 overall) will travel to Pittston Area (6-3) for a meeting of WVC divisional champions. The Patriots went 3-0 in Division 1.
Wyoming Area again made winning in the division look easy.
The Warriors outscored their three divisional opponents 167-23 despite having eight minutes removed from the second half at Tunkhannock and four more minutes taking off the second half of the game Friday night. The teams played 10-minute quarters, instead of 12, with running clock rules in the second half Friday night.
Wyoming Area raced to a 21-0 lead in the first 9:24. Nicholas Kondrosky ran six times for 100 yards and three touchdowns in that fast start, but did not carry again. His touchdowns covered 3, 68 and 4 yards.
The lead ballooned to 49-0 at halftime.
Kopetchny, who had a 40-yard touchdown called back on the game’s third play, threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Lucas Viadock after Dominic Bartel opened the third quarter with a 54-yard scoring run. “We talk about him a lot, but Luke Kopetchny and the job he has done at the quarterback position growing in there and becoming such a playmaker has really put us in a great place,” Spencer said.
Kopetchny also returned his seventh interception of the year 21 yards to the 3 to set up the game’s first touchdown.
Wyoming Area had five touchdowns of at least 42 yards.
Semaj Morris covered 42 on a second-quarter touchdown, then returned a kickoff 91 yards for another touchdown in the third quarter.
The Morris kickoff return for the touchdown came as part of a flurry of activity when the teams combined for five touchdowns in just two offensive plays in the last 2½ minutes of the third quarter.
Jonah Guzman ran 3 yards for Nanticoke to break the shutout.
Morris returned the kickoff to restore the seven-touchdown lead, but Nanticoke answered in one play on a 60-yard touchdown pass from Chet Beggs to Justin Johnson.
Wyoming Area’s Maddox Fink, from 75 yards, and Nanticoke’s Yahir De la Cruz, from 86 yards, then returned consecutive kickoffs for touchdowns.
Nanticoke (1-2 Div. 3, 2-7 overall) will finish the regular season Friday night at rival Hanover Area (1-8) in a non-league game.
Citizens Voice It’s sometimes a cliché, but for the Wyoming Area football team, it all started upfront Friday night.
The Warriors dominated the line of scrimmage against Nanticoke Area.
Before Wyoming Area made substitutions at halftime, the Warriors held Nanticoke Area to 35 yards of offense while amassing 330 yards of their own en route to a 63-21 victory in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3 game. The Warriors (7-2 overall, 3-0 Division 3) clinched the Division 3 championship in the process.
“I think we’ve come a long way since the beginning of the season,” Wyoming Area head coach Randy Spencer said. “To come out here, in a game like this – credit to Nanticoke for playing, competing hard throughout the game.
“I’m excited that the level we’ve gotten to. I’m excited that we’ve been able to get some guys healthy. And we’re able to play this kind of level of football throughout the game tonight.”
It didn’t matter if it was senior Nick Kondrosky, sophomore Dominic Bartell or junior Semaj Morris lined up in the backfield. Each Warriors running back found holes with ease most of the night, thanks to a strong showing from the offensive line.
Kondrosky led the way with six carries for 100 yards and three touchdowns, including a 68-yard score. Bartell turned three carries into 62 yards and a touchdown, including a 46-yard score.
Morris was the third member of the three-headed rushing attack, and ran for 46 yards and a touchdown on just two carries. He also had a 92-yard kickoff return touchdown in the third quarter, which was one of three kick return touchdowns in the second half. Wyoming Area junior Maddox Fink and Nanticoke Area freshman Yahir De la Cruz had the others.
“We just all came out fired up and ready to execute,” Kondrosky said. “The line was great. They just blocked everyone. They always know what they’re supposed to do now. It’s amazing that I have the line that I do.
“Our best feature had to be our communication upfront,” Wyoming Area senior offensive lineman Logan O’Malley said. “I just trust my guys around me. We communicated, came off theball and hit them.”
Just as impressive as the Warriors offense was the defense. Wyoming Area forced a turnover on three of the first four Nanticoke Area drives, including an interception by senior defensive back Luke Kopetchny, which set up the Warriors first touchdown.
The Trojans’ best drive came at the start of the third quarter. Jeremy Smith’s 3-yard carry capped off a 10-play, 67-yard drive.
“Situationally, I thought we were very sound,” Spencer said of the Wyoming Area defense. “Played to our level of play where we needed to be tonight. Hopefully that puts us in a great spot going forward.”
The victory Friday night puts the Warriors’ win streak at six games.
Next up is a big matchup against Pittston Area, before turning their attention to the playoffs. to securing the No.2 seed in the District 2 Class 3A playoffs.
“I’m very glad that our team can pull together and figured out how to click,” Kondrosky said. “I just really wanted us to see what we could, and I’m glad to see that we can really execute and get (going) now.”
Nanticoke Area (2-7, 1-2) wraps up their regular season at Hanover Area next week.
Times LeaderWyoming Area was moving the ball so well in the first half Friday night that the issue wasn’t yardage but time.
Time, though, didn’t matter either.
The Warriors completed a dominant first half by driving 99 yards with less than two minutes remaining for their fourth touchdown as part of a 49-8 rout of Lake-Lehman in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3 game.
Wyoming Area improved to 2-0 in the division and 6-2 overall with its fifth consecutive victory. The Warriors had four touchdowns of 54 yards or more as they piled up season-high 504 yards of total offense. “We’re still working on playing clean, not playing to a scoreboard and executing,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “I think moments in the game, from a football standpoint, a lot of outstanding playmaking from our guys. “So I’m very excited about that and glad to see that part, but we’re very focused on cleaning up a lot of things we need to going forward the last few weeks.”
Quarterback Luke Kopetchny threw for a career-high 163 yards. The Brown University recruit, who shifted from receiver to quarterback this season, also had 79 yards rushing.
Kopetchny also intercepted a pass at the 1-yard line, and Wyoming Area turned the pick into the 99-yard drive. The Warriors were able to convert two third-down plays, one on a Lehman personal foul and the other on a 13-yard run by Kopetchny.
Wyoming Area called a timeout with two seconds left and the ball at its 46-yard line after Kopetchny’s run. The Warriors used a little trickery to score from there.
Mike McKernan took the shotgun snap and handed off to Kopetchny, who was coming in motion from his receiver spot. Kopetchny then launched a pass to receiver Hudson Sharpe down the left sideline. Sharpe dived into the end zone as time expired in the first half.
Kopetchny believed his team wasn’t going to shut down the offense 99 yards from a score, which turned the lead from 20-0 to 28-0. “I thought we were going to try for it for sure,” Kopetchny said. “We definitely had some explosive plays, so we knew we could get one again in that first half. I felt like we knew we were going for that.”
Another 54-yard touchdown pass — this one from Kopetchny to Lavell Brock — opened the scoring in the third quarter and brought about the 35-point mercy rule.
Running back Semaj Morris finished off Wyoming Area’s scoring with TD runs of 71 and 69 yards. Neither were easy as he had to break some tackles on the first score and overcome a grab of his face mask on the other. Morris finished with a Bo Jackson Tecmo Bowl stat line of three carries for 144 yards.
Lehman (1-1 Div. 3, 3-5) had just 91 yards in the first half and 222 for the game. The Black Knights avoided the shutout by using the hard running of freshman Jeremy Matusick to get on the board. His 8-yard TD run and ensuing two-point run came with 4:53 remaining.
The Black Knights had a drive to the Wyoming Area 2-yard line in the second quarter end when Wyoming Area’s Drew Keating recovered a fumble.
Citizens Voice The ball ripped through the humid air.
Hudson Sharpe knew quarterback Luke Kopetchny would get the ball into his hands. The Wyoming Area wide receiver knew it would be up to him to complete the play.
It wasn’t going to be easy. Two Lake-Lehman defenders right in front of him. The spiraling ball spinning through the foggy lights of Jake Sobeski Stadium.
No problem for Sharpe.
The sophomore hauled in the 54-yard touchdown with no time left in the first half, giving Wyoming Area a four-score lead at the break. The Warriors went on to defeat the Black Knights, 49-8, in a Wyoming Valley Conference football game Friday.
Kopetchny accounted for four touchdowns, while Semaj Morris had 144 yards on three carries and two scores as Wyoming Area ran its winning streak to five.
“Honestly, you just don’t know what’s going to happen on a play like that,” Sharpe said. “It was a great throw by Luke, and I felt like I was able to track it pretty good. And then, touchdown.”
More important than just a regular-season win, it keeps Wyoming Area (6-2) in firm control of that second seed in the District 2 Class 3A playoff race, while Lake-Lehman (3-5) could fall into the fourth spot after Mid Valley’s win over Lakeland.
“I think we are in a good spot,” Kopetchny said. “We have Nanticoke next week, and close it out with Pittston. We are looking to get two wins in a row, and get a nice seed going into playoffs. From there, it’s about getting the job done.”
Back to the final two minutes.
Kopetchny eradicated a Lake-Lehman scoring drive late in the first half by intercepting a pass at the Warriors 1 on a fourth-down play.
“I probably shouldn’t have picked it, realizing that it was fourth down and we were stuck on on the 1-yard line,” Kopetchny smiled.
Again, no problem for the Brown University commit.
He connected with Gavin Feeney to get the ball from the goal line, and ended up pushing the pigskin around the 50 with two seconds left.
There was never a doubt in Kopetchny’s mind that the Warriors would be aggressive in that spot.
There was also, never a doubt, that ball was getting in the end zone.
“I knew that we were going to try and score, for sure,” Kopetchny said. “We had some explosive plays in that first half, and we felt that we could get some more again. And we had one right there.”
The play, a reverse, started in the hands of Michael McKernan, who took the snap and immediately handed the ball to Kopetchny. The senior rolled to his left, planted his feet and fired a dart down the sideline.
Streaking toward the end zone was Sharpe.
“The ball, it was right in the lights. I lost it for a second, but was able to get it right back on track,” Sharpe said. “Going back to the sidelines, everyone’s cheering for you, bumping heads and high-fives. It’s probably one of the best, if not the best, feeling of all time.”
Fifty-four yards later, the Warriors carried a 28-0 lead in the locker room.
“We are still working on playing clean, not playing to a scoreboard, and just executing,” Wyoming Area head coach Randy Spencer said. “From a football standpoint, we made a lot of outstanding football plays. We are excited about that. But we are still very focused on cleaning up a lot of things that we need going forward here in the last few weeks.”
Kopetchny had himself a first half, rushing for a TD, while passing for two more. He racked up 187 total yards in the first half, running for 78 and passing for 109.
“You are talking about a Division 1 Ivy League recruit,” Spencer said of Kopetchny. “To see him evolve from the standpoint of moving to quarterback, where he started and where he’s at right now, it’s amazing. To have his hands on the ball on every snap, that’s so important for us.”
Leading, 6-0, after one quarter, Wyoming Area came alive in the second, scoring 22 points on Kopetchny passing scores to Sharpe and Feeney, and Dominic Bartell’s 5-yard burst through the heart of the Black Knights’ defense.
Wyoming Area sent the game into the mercy rule in the third on Kopetchny’s 54-yard strike to a wide-open Lavell Brock, while Morris added TD runs of 71 and 69 yards in the second half.
The Warriors’ defense also got the job done, holding the Black Knights’ Wing-T offense to just 80 yards in the first half.

Times LeaderWyoming Area averaged almost a touchdown every three offensive plays Friday night in its Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3 football opener at Tunkhannock.
The only way to keep the points from piling up higher than the eventual 55-14 outcome seemed to be to make sure the number of plays the Warriors got was kept to a minimum.
Coaches agreed to shorten the second half to eight-minute quarters from the usual 12 and officials went way beyond using running clock rules of the mercy rule. The clock kept running through the conversion attempt after a third-quarter touchdown, then ran for more than two minutes on a conversion and a lengthy setup for the ensuing kickoff in the fourth quarter.
There was no stopping the Warriors, however, in the first half.
Luke Kopetchny gave Wyoming Area its first touchdown before it ran a play, returning a punt 65 yards for score 1:51 into the game.
The Warriors led 28-0 with 2:47 left in the first quarter, 35-0 in the opening minute of the second quarter and 42-0 before the second quarter reached its midway point.
With traditional rules in place, Wyoming Area scored 48 points in the first half, capped by Dominic Bartell returning a kickoff 64 yards for a score after Tunkhannock’s first touchdown.
Nicholas Kondrosky, David Favata and Semaj Morris all finished with two touchdowns as the Warriors won their fourth straight to improve to 5-2. “We’ve definitely got some good momentum going now,” Kondrosky said.
Kopetchny completed the only three passes Wyoming Area attempted, including touchdowns of 46 yards to Favata in the first quarter and 34 yards to him in the second quarter.
Kondrosky needed just three carries to score his two touchdowns. He appeared to be stopped on both.
On the 30-yard run to a 14-0 lead on Wyoming Area’s third play from scrimmage, Kondrosky pulled away from more tackles than he broke as the Tigers had a hold of his shirt and had him surrounded, but never wrapped him up.
Kondrosky was then almost down on a 36-yard run to the team’s fourth first-quarter touchdown, but pushed off the ground with his hand before his knee touched and took off for the score. “Always keep your feet moving, don’t stop running until you hear the whistle blow and it will take you places,” Kondrosky said. ” … I caught myself with my hand and saved my balance. It’s always good to keep a good balance.”
Tunkhannock completed just one of its first 14 passes and was still in the negative rushing yardage with a lone first down by penalty when the deficit reached 42 points.
Linebacker Chase Krogulski was in on five tackles, all within two yards of the line of scrimmage, in the first quarter. “We took them like every other team,” Krogulski said. “We tried to stay focused. We knew they had a good back and would run the ball. We couldn’t let him get free.”
The Tigers were able to find some offense as the Warriors went deep into their bench.
Zach Latwinski threw a 63-yard touchdown pass to Brandon Carter on fourth-and-eight in the second quarter. The same combination produced a 35-yard touchdown on third-and-five in the fourth quarter.
The Tigers slipped to 0-2 in the division and 1-6 overall.
Citizens VoiceWyoming Area’s top playmakers didn’t get many plays to show off their skills, but they for sure made the most of them.
Wyoming Area scored 48 first-half points to pick up a 55-14 victory over Tunkhannock in a Wyoming Valley Conference Division 3 football game Friday evening at Tunkhannock Memorial Field.
The Warriors’ starters were efficient and wasted no time on offense. Quarterback Luke Kopetchny completed all three of his pass attempts for 85 yards and two touchdowns. Nicholas Kondrosky carried the ball three times and found the end zone on two of them, rushing for 71 yards. Wide receiver David Favata caught two passes for 80 yards with both of them going for touchdowns.
It wasn’t only the Warriors offense that was clicking. Special teams got in the act as well as Wyoming Area (5-2 overall, 1-0 Division 3) returned a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns with Kopetchny opening the scoring with a 65-yard punt return touchdown.
“Our defense got a three and out on the first drive, and when I caught the punt I just saw green grass and open lanes in front of me,” Kopetchny said. “Taking it to the house was a really good feeling there.”
Wyoming Area’s offense controlled the rest of the first quarter with Kondrosky’s first touchdown from 30 yards where he carried several defenders with him before eventually breaking free. The Warriors then forced a three-and-out, and four plays later Kopetchny scrambled to his right and found Favata on the run who took it 46 yards for a score.
Another Tunkhannock (1-6, 0-2) three-and-out and Kondrosky scored on the first play of the next drive with a highlight-reel run where he stuck his hand on the ground to keep his balance, broke free from a tackle, made another man miss and found paydirt from 36 yards out to extend the lead to 28-0 in the first quarter.
‘We always preach never giving up on the play until the whistle blows and that’s what I did,” Kondrosky said. “I didn’t think I was going to be able to stay up at first. I just stuck my hand in the ground, stayed on my feet and kept running hard just like this whole team does all the time.”
The offense was just as hot in the second quarter with Kopetchny finding Favata for a second long touchdown — this time from 34 yards — to extend the lead to 35-0 three plays into the quarter.
Tunkhannock got on the board, however, as Tigers quarterback Zach Latwinski connected with Brandon Carter for a 67-yard touchdown pass on fourth down with 3:53 to go before halftime.
The Tunkhannock celebration was short lived however as Dominic Bartell returned the ensuing kickoff 65 yards for the Warriors second special teams score of the night and a 48-6 halftime lead.
With the lopsided deficit, the teams agreed to play eight minute quarters in the second half, and Wyoming Area was able to get younger players experience, mainly Semaj Morris, who became the game’s leading rusher with 91 yards and scored two touchdowns, including a 37 yard scamper in the third quarter.
“It was great to see the young guys get in and get a couple of scores,” Kopetchny said. “I liked how efficient the offense was when the starters were in there. We were able to make the most out of our time on the field tonight.”
Tunkhannock closed the scoring in the fourth quarter when Latwinski connected with Carter for a second time, this time from 37 yards. Latwinski threw for 124 yards with two touchdowns. Carter had two receptions for 102 yards with both going for scores.

Week 6 Oct 2, 2026: Warriors Defeat Crestwood 30-13
Times LeaderWyoming Area’s defense held on until its offense could get started Friday night.
Once the offense got moving, Crestwood could not keep up.
The Warriors did all their scoring in a span of less than 17 minutes during the second half while rallying past the visiting Comets 30-13 in a non-league game between Wyoming Valley Conference football teams at Anthony “Jake” Sobeski Stadium. “It was probably in the locker room,” Warriors quarterback/defensive back Luke Kopetchny said of the game’s turnaround. “We were not where we want to be. We want to eliminate these slow starts. “We dialed in, came out and scored three or four touchdowns real fast. That was definitely a great feeling.”
Crestwood scored on the opening drive and had the ball in Wyoming Area on its next three possessions, but could not add to its lead.
The Warriors had 12 yards on their first four possessions and just 56 at halftime before churning out 238 yards and four touchdowns in the second half to overcome a 7-0 deficit at the break. “Second half, we called on our seniors,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “Credit to Crestwood for what they did, especially defensively and with that first drive then ball control throughout that first half. “It was really about going in and putting it on our leaders and putting it on our seniors. We were looking for a response from them and they did a great job. They brought the rest of the team with them.”
The change was immediate coming out of halftime.
Luke Kopetchny went up the middle, then stretched the ball over the goal line as he was going down at the end of a 48-yard run for the tying touchdown on the sixth play of the second half.
When Crestwood muffed the kickoff, Michael McKernan recovered and Dominic Bartell covered the 33 yards in two carries – a 13-yard run and a 20-yard touchdown.
Wide receiver Lavell Brock blocked a man all the way into the end zone and Bartell followed him in for the score and a 14-7 lead with 8:27 left in the third quarter.
The Warriors made it 16-7 with 22 seconds left in the third when they swarmed the Crestwood punter after a bad snap and Drew Keating pushed him out of the back of the end zone for a safety.
The Warriors needed just five plays to move 45 yards after the free kick with Nicholas Kondrosky scoring from the 19 for a 23-7 lead early in the fourth quarter.
They were not done yet.
Gavin Feeney intercepted and Kopetchny carried four times for 29 yards in the eight-play scoring drive, which he capped for a 30-7 lead with 4:19 left.
Kopetchny ran for 160 yards on 16 carries and made a brilliant one-handed interception while leading the Warriors (4-2) to their third straight victory. “Luke hit the big run to put us on the board,” Spencer said. “He ran extremely well.”
Crestwood finished with six first downs, three on the first drive and three on the last.
In between, it had managed just nine yards. “I’m proud of the defense in the second half, but also when adversity struck in the first half to be able to manage that and get us to halftime to kind of regroup,” Spencer said. “ … The defense collectively I thought was a very strong effort.”
The Warriors held strong after Crestwood recovered a fumble at the Wyoming Area 32 in the first quarter and returned a punt to the Wyoming Area 29 in the second.
Jake Jeckell had a 38-yard run on the third play to set up his 2-yard score that capped the first drive and gave Crestwood a lead it held for almost half the game.
Riley Wojciechowski scored from the 2 on the game’s final play.
The Comets slipped to 1-5.
Citizens Voice Wyoming Area looked like a different team when it came out of the locker room after halftime Friday night.
Trailing Crestwood by a touchdown at the break, the Warriors had gained some steam on their final drive of the second quarter. While the eight-play drive didn’t yield points, WyomingArea took some confidence into the break.
Getting the ball first to open the second half, the Warriors took little time to tie the game. Senior quarterback Luke Kopetchny capped off a six-play, 69-yard drive with a 48-yard sneak to paydirt. The scamper kicked off a run of 30 unanswered points for the Warriors, en route to a 30-13 win over Crestwood in a Wyoming Valley Conference game.
“Crestwood, credit to them, came out and got the first score on the board,” Wyoming Area head coach Randy Spencer said. “For us, just challenged us all half long and led to mistakes on our part and miscues. And those were things that we needed to clean up.
“Just really about calling on our seniors and the leaders of our team to come out and play the last 24 minutes the way we needed to, to come out with a victory.”
The momentum fully swung to the Wyoming Area (4-2) sidelines on the ensuing kickoff after Kopetchny’s 48-yard score.
The Comets (1-5) had a hard time handling the kick, and the Warriors fell on the free ball at the Crestwood 33.
Two Dominic Bartell carries later, and the Warriors found the end zone again. The sophomore running back took his time and waited for a hole to open over the right side of the Wyoming Area offensive line, and broke off a 20-yard touchdown.
“We had a slow start today,” Kopetchny said. “We started off hot right in the third quarter. Scored like three, four touchdowns in a row and got that win.”
The Warriors scored 14 points in 44 seconds and never looked back, taking the 14-7 lead.
While Kopetchny led the way offensively, running for 160 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries, the senior made an impact at cornerback, too.
On the next drive, Crestwood had a third-and-7 from the Wyoming Area 39. Comets senior quarterback Jack Rodgers rolled out of the pocket to his left and tried to make a throw just past the sticks. But Kopetchny played the ball perfectly and made a leaping one-handed interception to stop the drive.
Kopetchny’s interception was the first of two by the Wyoming Area defense. Warriors senior linebacker Gavin Feeney hauled in the defense’s second interception of the night early in the fourth quarter, helping preserve a 23-7 lead.
“I’m pretty sure it was a bootleg,” Kopetchny said of his interception. “The (quarterback) was running across (the field). I kind of alerted them a little bit. I came out of nowhere and snatched it up.
“It was a little slow, but we definitely started to dial in by the end. Our defense did a great job, especially towards the end, and we got it done.”
Crestwood senior running back Jake Jeckell got the scoring going, capping the opening drive with a two-yard dive into the endzone. It was Jeckell’s sixth carry of the drive. He finished with 13 carries for a team-high 61 yards.
Crestwood freshman running back Riley Wojciechowski closed the scoring, as he fell into the endzone as time expired, 30-13.
Friday night marks three straight wins for the Warriors, who travel to Tunkhannock next week.
Crestwood turns its attention to a home matchup against Pittston Area.
“Playing a lot of young guys,” Spencer said. “Fortunately, we got a few guys back from injury tonight. Got them back into the mix. We’re excited every game that our young guys play. Our goal is just to get a little better every game and a little better every week, and I think we’re on that path – moving in the right direction.
“We’re certainly excited for the rest of the season moving forward.”

Times Leader Wyoming Area scored on the final play of the first half, then held Western Wayne scoreless in the second half for a 35-13 victory in a Friday night, non-league football game.
The Wildcats had scored consecutive touchdowns in the second quarter to close to within 14-13.
David Favata caught a 32-yard pass from Luke Kopetchny as time expired in the first half. It was the second touchdown connection between the two and Kopetchny went on to add a third scoring pass.
Dominic Bartell gave the Warriors a 7-0 lead after one quarter with a 1-yard run.
Wyoming Area missed a chance to add to its lead early in the second quarter when a field goal attempt was off the mark. The Warriors came back to score on the next possession when Favata went up high in the back of the end zone to pull in a 24-yard pass from Kopetchny. “That gave us a nice momentum boost going into the half,” coach Randy Spencer said.
The Warriors made the most of it, adding a 37-yard Nicholas Kondrosky touchdown run on a third-and-one play in the third quarter.
Kopetchny rolled right on third-and-goal and found Drew Keating for an 8-yard touchdown.
Wyoming Area improved to 3-2 with its first road victory of the season.
Western Wayne slipped to 3-2.
Pottsville 39, Berwick 14
The Dawgs’ first game against Pottsville in more than a decade resulted in a non-conference loss on the road.
With standout quarterback Brady Cleaver suffering an injury late in last week’s loss to Wilkes-Barre Area, Berwick had Shiloh Escobar under center. The senior accounted for both of the Dawgs’ touchdowns, with the first coming on a 1-yard plunge in the first quarter that tied the game at 7-7.
But from there, the Crimson Tide — led by former Hazleton Area coach Mike Brennan — scored the next 32 points to take control of the game.
Escobar added a 4-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter that made it 39-14.
Berwick fell to 2-3 on the season and will make another road trip next Friday to take on Hanover Area.
nepafootball.com Luke Kopetchny threw for three touchdowns, including a pair in which David Favata made tough catches in the end zone during the second quarter, Friday night to lead Wyoming Area to the non-league win at Western Wayne.
Favata went high in the back of the end zone to pull down a 24-yard touchdown pass for a 14-0 lead.
After Western Wayne closed to within 14-13 with 1:27 left in the second quarter, Kopetchny moved the Warriors down the field.
Kopetchny hit Favata on a third-and-nine square out for just enough yards for the first down and to move Wyoming Area into Western Wayne territory. Kopetchny then scrambled for 14 yards and was tripped up after a yard on another scramble, leading to a timeout with 5.7 seconds remaining.
Favata ran a deep fade pattern down the left side and again reached high over a defender in the end zone, this time to come down with a 32-yard touchdown as time expired in the half.
“That gave us a nice momentum boost going into the half,” Warriors coach Randy Spencer said.
The Wyoming Area defense turned away Western Wayne’s only second-half threat and the Warriors added two more scores.
Nicholas Kondrosky, who rushed for 146 yards on 19 carries, broke a 37-yard touchdown run on third-and-one midway through the third quarter.
Kopetchny found Drew Keating with an 8-yard touchdown pass on third-and-goal in the fourth.
Kopetchny finished 7-for-13 for 116 yards. He also rushed for 39 yards on five carries and returned two punts for 44 yards.
Favata had five catches for 97 yards.
Wyoming Area scored the only points of the first quarter on a 1-yard Dominic Bartell run and the first of five Ava Musinski extra points.
Following Favata’s first touchdown, Western Wayne scored twice in 3:12 late in the half.
Jason Sparks took a jet sweep 76 yards around right end for the first score.
Hunter Rodger added a 5-yard run, then Sparks kicked the extra point to cut the lead to one.
Both teams are 3-2.
Wyoming Area hosts Crestwood (1-4).
Western Wayne moves into its stretch of five straight Lackawanna Football Conference Division 2 games, beginning with a trip to face rival Honesdale (4-1).
On the final Friday night of the summer, the hometown Wyoming Area Warriors won decisively against the Mid Valley Spartans, 38-20, to even up their record at 2-2 on the young season.
Long-time Warriors coach Randy Spencer was proud of how his Wyoming Area team bounced back after a tough road loss to Berwick the week before.
“It’s exciting. It’s certainly a step back in the right direction,” Spencer said. “We got a lot of more experienced players who are knicked up and banged up, we had to go without them tonight but guys stepped up and did a great job, made plays in their place. Hopefully we are working towards getting a little healthier going forward starting next week.
“I’m just excited for our kids. They came together, played all 48-minutes, made some explosive plays and played I thought really physically defensively.”
While Wyoming Area came into the night off of a shutout loss at Berwick, Mid Valley was riding a two-game winning streak after fighting back from a nail-biting 14-13 home loss to Lake-Lehman in the season opener, as they topped Tunkhannock on the road 28-13 and pulled off a 14-0 shutout win over Old Forge.
The Warriors wasted no time displaying their scoring prowess, as just 55 seconds into the game standout senior tailback Nicholas Kondrosky barreled his way into the end zone from 6-yards out for the early 7-0 advantage.
For the Warriors’ next score, a big fumble recovery set their offense up in great position at Mid Valley’s 8-yard line, and senior quarterback Luke Kopetchny would cash it in on a crucial fourth-and-goal at the 1-yard line, bashing his way in to enhance his team’s lead to 14-0 headed into halftime.
To kick off their second-half scoring, sophomore defensive back Lavell Brock picked off a Spartans pass and took it all the way to the house on an 85-yard return to bring the Warriors’ lead up to 21-0 with 7:39 left in the third.
Wyoming Area increased the advantage to 24-0 about three minutes later when junior kicker Ava Musinski connected on a 35-yard field goal with 4:28 to go in the third.
Mid Valley then got on the board as sophomore back-up quarterback Paxton Grebb scrambled into end zone from 8 yards out to cut the deficit to 24-6 with 11:52 remaining in the fourth quarter.
That momentum would be short lived, as the Warriors bounced right back with sophomore running back Dominic Bartell sprinting to a 25-yard rushing touchdown just 48 seconds later to make it 31-6 with 11:08 left in regulation.
Wyoming Area would score its final points of the night when junior tailback Semaj Morris found a wide-open hole courtesy of his offensive line’s dominant effort and would flash the wheels for an 89-yard touchdown run to give his team a 38-6 advantage with 8:38 remaining.
Mid Valley added two scores from there as sophomore running back Justin Winters ran it in from 12-yards out to cut the deficit to 38-12 with 4:32 left. For the Spartans final score of the night, Grebb would record his second rushing touchdown, this time a 9-yard scamper to cut the lead to 38-20 with 2:34 left.
Now the 2-2 Warriors will look to build on this winning momentum when they go on the road next week for a road matchup against Western Wayne.
Meanwhile, coach Stan Yanoski and his 2-2 Spartans will look to bounce back next Friday night when they travel on the road to square off against Lackawanna Trail.

Week 3 September 11, 2026: Warriors Blanked by Berwick 39-0
Times Leader Brady Cleaver ran for three touchdowns and passed for another Friday as Berwick ran over visiting Wyoming Area for a 39-0 victory in a game between Wyoming Valley Conference teams that are no longer battling each other for a division title.
Berwick denied Wyoming Area a title repeat in 2025 by handing the Warriors their only regular-season defeat.
The Bulldogs came out on top again behind a defense that limited the Warriors to 56 yards total offense.
Gavin Galutia recovered a fumble to end Wyoming Area’s second possession and Berwick went 45 yards on 45 plays to open the scoring.
Galutia had a 14-yard run, then a 12-yard touchdown off the left side for a 7-0 lead with 3:32 left in the first quarter.
The Bulldogs scored three times in the second quarter to open a 26-0 halftime lead.
Galutia’s 25-yard run set up a 1-yard Brock Simms touchdown in the first minute of the quarter.
Cleaver swept left end for 4 yards to make it 20-0 with 6:29 left in the half, then scored on a 12-yard run with 1:45 left. He had a 21-yard run and Logan Zapata added a 13-yarder to set up the last score of the half.
Galutia limped off the field in the second quarter. He was in uniform on the sideline the rest of the game, but did not return to action. He finished with 65 yards on 10 carries, helping Berwick outrush Wyoming Area 163-26 in the first half.
Cleaver carried eight times for 72 yards. His last score was a 4-yard run midway through the third quarter. He hit Gabe Decker for a 9-yard touchdown with 3:43 left in the quarter to invoke the running clock.
Sportzwire Berwick delivered a dominant performance on both sides of the football Friday night, rolling past Wyoming Area, 39-0, at Crispin Memorial Stadium.
Quarterback Brady Cleaver accounted for four touchdowns, rushing for three scores and throwing another, while the Bulldogs’ defense limited the Warriors to just 56 yards of total offense. The victory improved Berwick to 2-1 on the season, while Wyoming Area fell to 1-2.
Wyoming Area initially stopped Berwick on fourth down near midfield, but the momentum quickly shifted when the Warriors lost a fumble on their ensuing possession. The Bulldogs capitalized, driving 45 yards before Gavin Galutia scored on a 12-yard run to give Berwick a 7-0 lead with 3:32 remaining in the first quarter.
Berwick broke the game open with three touchdowns during a commanding second quarter.
Galutia ripped off a 25-yard run that set up Brock Simms’ one-yard touchdown plunge early in the period. Cleaver then added scoring runs of four and 12 yards, sending the Bulldogs into halftime with a commanding 26-0 advantage.
Galutia finished with 65 yards on 10 carries before leaving the game with an injury during the second quarter. Cleaver carried eight times for 72 yards as the Bulldogs controlled the line of scrimmage and consistently moved the football on the ground.
Wyoming Area recovered an onside kick to begin the second half and drove deep into Berwick territory, but the Bulldogs’ defense produced a fourth-down stop near the goal line to preserve the shutout.
Cleaver scored his third rushing touchdown on a four-yard run midway through the third quarter. He then connected with Gabe Decker for a nine-yard touchdown with 3:43 remaining in the period, extending the lead to 39-0 and putting the game under the running-clock rule.
The Bulldogs protected the shutout late when defensive back Shiloh Escobar intercepted a pass inside the Berwick 10-yard line.
Berwick’s defense dominated the matchup from start to finish, holding Wyoming Area to only 26 first-half rushing yards and preventing the Warriors from completing any promising drives.
The victory marked Berwick’s second consecutive win after the Bulldogs defeated Pittston Area, 36-17, one week earlier. Berwick will remain at Crispin Field next week to face Wilkes-Barre Area, while Wyoming Area will return home to host Mid Valley.
Week 2 September 4, 2026: Warriors Handle Hanover Area 47-6
Times LeaderAfter being shut out in its last two games against perennial Lackawanna Conference powers, Wyoming Area had no trouble finding the end zone Friday night.
The Warriors scored on their first six possessions — plus on defense as well — as they routed Hanover Area 47-6 in a Wyoming Valley Conference non-divisional game.
Wyoming Area lost 42-0 to state-ranked Dunmore in its opener. Its 2025 season ended with a 42-0 playoff loss to Scranton Prep.
The team on the field the past two weeks looked very different than the one which lost to Prep. The scoring was evidence of that.
Sophomores Lavell Brock and Hudson Sharpe, junior Semaj Morris and freshmen Michael McKernan all scored their first varsity touchdowns. Sophomore Dominic Bartell scored only his second. “What you saw between Week 1 and Week 2 is talent,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “We’re very confident in the talent we have, but the reality is you have guys getting their first taste of varsity experience. “Until you get into a varsity game and played 48 minutes against high-level competition, there is really no way to prepare for that.”
Even Wyoming Area’s most experienced skill player — senior Luke Kopetchny — is getting on-the-job training. Kopetchny has been one of the best receivers in the state throughout his career. He moved to quarterback when last year’s starter, Jack Gravine, suffered a season-ending injury in the spring.
Bartell was the first in the end zone, capping a 11-play, 55-yard drive to start the game with a 3-yard run. Then it was Brock’s turn as he ran a smooth stop-and-go down the right side and hauled in a 34-yard TD throw from Kopetchny.
Kopetchny plowed in from a yard out five plays after a Hanover Area fumble for a 21-0 lead entering the second quarter. The Warriors ran 22 offensive plays to five by Hanover Area in the first quarter.
Kopetchny then scored on defense in the second. Hanover Area quarterback Logan Richardson had his arm hit as he threw and Kopetchny undercut the pass and returned it 53 yards for a score. “He’s a Division I recruit to Brown University,” Spencer said of Kopetchny. “It was great to see him put all those tools on display tonight. He did a great job leading. As tough as it was competitively and athletically last week, but to come back with the competitive confidence and leadership to lead this group and all those young guys.”
The Warriors struck two more times to take a 41-0 lead into halftime.
Hudson caught a pass at the Hanover Area 30-yard line and zipped down the right side to make it 35-0 with 7:38 left in the second quarter. On Wyoming Area’s next possession, Morris had the longest play of the night, a 63-yard run to the Hanover Area 1. He took the ball over the goal line on the next play.
Hanover Area crossed midfield once in the first half as a 28-yard reception by Luke Willis placed the ball on the Wyoming Area 22. A penalty followed by a sack ended the threat.
Citizens VoiceLuke Kopetchny found just about every way possible to help his team win, and he did it all in just half a game.
The senior quarterback/defensive back accounted for four touchdowns in the first half to lead Wyoming Area’s to a 47-6 defeat of Hanover Area in a Wyoming Valley Conference football game on Friday night in Exeter.
Kopetchny, a Brown University commit, was nearly perfect as a passer, completing 4 of his 5 pass attempts for 117 yards and two long touchdowns. He also scored on a quarterback sneak and a 50-yard interception return. “You saw tonight why he’s so well-respected by college coaches,” Wyoming Area head coach Randy Spencer said. “I’m impressed with his leadership. Our guys respond to him, and it’s a testament to his character.”
Kopetchney was one of seven Warriors to score. Running back Semaj Morris rushed four times for 98 yards and a touchdown, and wide receiver Lavell Brock hauled in two passes for 45 yards and a score. Michael McKernan, Dominic Bartell and Hudson Sharpe all chipped in with touchdowns, and Ava Musinski connected on all five of her extra point attempts. “I was proud of the way we responded on both sides of the ball after last week,” Spencer said of the Warriors’ 42-0 Week 1 loss to Dunmore. “Dunmore did a good job against us, and we just couldn’t make the big play. This week, we were much better. We got good contributions from a lot of kids. Some were playing varsity football for the first time, and they did their part.”
Hanover Area couldn’t get much going against a Warrior defense led by Brock, Kopetchny and defensive lineman Domenic Bell, who forced a fumble, recorded a quarterback sack and was around the ball all night.
But the Hawkeyes caught a spark on the offensive side in the third quarter when quarterback Logan Richardson hit Luke Willis for two big gainers. Workhorse running back Dewayne Downey had 56 of his 76 yards in the fourth quarter, breaking many tackles along the way.
The Hawkeyes got on the board in the fourth when Richardson hit his brother Conor down the left sideline for the lone Hanover Area points. “The Richardson boys are talented, and Downey is a tough guy to bring down. I’m proud of the effort our guys gave all night against Hanover,” Spencer said.
Tymofi Fanha had a pair of blocked extra points for the Hawkeyes.

Times Leader Dunmore showed why it opened the season ranked as the No. 4 Class 2A football team in the state, according to PennLive.com.
The Bucks forced five turnovers and never let visiting Wyoming Area get closer than the 24 on the way to a 42-0 romp in a non-league opener between traditional District 2 Small School powers.
Weston Yannone scored three touchdowns, catching two passes from Brady McCormick, who replaced him at quarterback with the Division I prospect’s move to tailback.
“I’m going to do whatever my team needs me to do,” Yannone said. “ … If coach (Kevin) McHale wants me there, I’m going to play it the best I can.
“I love quarterback. I love playing anywhere.”
Yannone carried 10 times for 55 yards and one score and caught Dunmore’s only two completions in five attempts for the scores from 50 and 68 yards.
All-state wide receiver and Brown University commit Luke Kopetchny moved in the opposite direction for Wyoming Area, spending the first half at quarterback and completing six of 11 passes, but all for short gains. Down 35-0 before their first snap of the third quarter, the Warriors tested sophomore David Favata and freshman Tyler Karcutskie at quarterback in the second half.
The Warriors managed just 15 total yards on their first five possessions and did not pick up a first down until their seventh possession at which time they were already down three touchdowns.
“Across the board, they set the level of physicality and we didn’t match it throughout the course of the game,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said.
The Bucks controlled play up front and their inside linebackers, Brandon Mecca and Xavier Burke were outstanding. Mecca had four of his team’s first six tackles, forcing a fumble on one of them. Burke had six first-half tackles, two for losses, one for no gain and the other two within two yards of the line of scrimmage.
“They set a high standard for our defense,” McHale said. “When they get to the ball, usually good things are happening.”
Despite the sluggish offense, Wyoming Area was within 7-0 with seven minutes left in the half.
After the Warriors lost a fumble at their 25, the Bucks scored with 16 seconds left in the first quarter on a Jacob Costanzo 7-yard run.
Dunmore took control with three touchdowns in a span of 4:34 in the second quarter.
Josef Wolff ran 29 yards and Yannone ran 19 yards for scores, then Yannone was wide open down the left sideline to haul in the 50-yard touchdown pass.
Dunmore was at the 20 late in the half, but Wyoming Area held and a field goal attempt was no good.
The Bucks arrived at the Mercy Rule when Costanzo returned the second-half kickoff 90 yards for a score.
The second McCormick-to-Yannone connection made it 42-0 with 7:02 left in the third quarter.
Citizens Voice This was the reason Weston Yannone set that alarm for 5:30 a.m. in the offseason.
That sweat dripping off his forehead while pumping iron, the miles ran throughout the Dunmore community, mentally preparing for his senior season before the sun came over the horizon.
Yannone showed everyone he’s going to be a menace in his final year at Dunmore. Wyoming Area saw it firsthand from the opposite sideline.
Rotating between tailback and wide receiver, Yannone’s blazing speed was a huge difference-maker in the opening week of the high school football season as he broke the end zone on two long strikes from Brady McCormick as the Bucks rolled past Wyoming Area, 42-0, on Friday night.
“You just have to tuck your chin, keep your head down and keep putting in the work,” said Yannone, who had 118 yards receiving, 62 yards on the ground and scored three times. “We were up at 5:30 a.m. most days this summer, and in the spring, too. I would do a lift, get in a run, go to school and then went to track practice. It’s about that grind and putting in the work. But it shows when you come out in Week 1 and put together a performance like that.”
It was almost a perfect game for the Bucks in terms of openers.
The offense scored five times with perfect balance — three on the ground and two through the air — and Jacob Costanzo scored on a 90-yard kickoff return to open the second half ina enact the mercy rule. Oh, and the Buck defense forced five Wyoming Area turnovers.
“A game where you have five turnovers, it’s tough to be successful in that type of game,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “Give Dunmore credit because I thought they were aggressive in every spot. They are senior heavy and experienced, and they set the level of physicality. Credit to them in that respect. Some lessons are hard ones to learn, but it’s an opportunity for our young team to learn that lesson tonight. We’ll come back and attack next week, and learn from this game.”
Coming into Friday, it was billed as one of the marquee matchups, not only in District 2, but around the state. Dunmore, a state-title contender in Class 2A against a Wyoming Area squad that’s expected to push toward that district championship in Class 3A.
It was a heavyweight fight in the first quarter with both sides feeling each other out.
Dunmore landed the knockout punch in the second, scoring three times in a seven-minute span. Josef Wolff broke through on a 29-yard inside handoff, and following a Warrior fumble, Yannone capped off a five-play series on the short field with a 19-yard burst off the right side.
Two minutes later, Yannone got back in the end zone as he beat the secondary, and McCormick laid a perfect pass in stride over the defense for the 50-yard strike for the 28-0 lead at the break.
“I got to shout out Brady because he’s been putting in the work day in and day out,” Yannone said. “All winter, he’s been throwing amazing balls. He stays in the pocket, took a good hit today, and still threw an amazing ball. I can’t do anything without him throwing those great passes.”
Enter Costanzo.
Taking the opening second-half kickoff at the 10-yard line, the 6-foot-3 senior hit a ginormous hole in the middle of the field and went untouched 90 yards. Thirteen seconds into the second half, Costanzo called ballgame.
“I can’t thank my team enough. I just caught the ball, and no one even touched me. It was such a great hole to run through,” Costanzo said. “All credit to everyone who blocked for me. We knew, in the first half, that we couldn’t take our foot off the gas. Starting that second half off with a spark, it really carried our momentum through the rest of the game.”
The Bucks’ defense did the rest, recovering three fumbles as Yannone and Jackson Harding both picked off passes.
Wyoming Area didn’t record a first down until three minutes left in the second quarter, and was held to just 63 yards in the first half, and 158 for the game.
“The community was big for us. Such a great crowd tonight, and it really was a big-game atmosphere,” Costanzo said. “There are high expectations for us, and we know it. I think we proved ourselves tonight.”
