Hanover 3 Delone 1

The Nighthawks took the victory Tuesday night as the Squires started out with multiple offsides calls, with Hanover playing a prevent defense all night effectively. In the first half, Hanover scored with 8 minutes left, making it 1-0 at halftime. In the second half, Hanover split the defense scoring again with 28 minutes remaining, and a few minutes later, a Squire handball in the box led to a successful PK for the Nighthawks, giving them a 3-0 lead in the game with 25 minutes left. After a few changes with positions, the Squires held strong, and Will Holtz, a junior, scored an olimpico from the far corner kick into the net without a touch by Hanover.

Shippensburg stays perfect with Colonial Division golf win

Shippensburg extended its unbeaten run in Mid-Penn Colonial Division golf, posting a team-low 326 at Eagles Crossing Golf Club on Wednesday to secure its fifth tournament victory of the season. The Greyhounds (6–0, 24–6 overall) were led by medalist Ben Horgos, who carded a tournament-best 73, the only score under par on a sunny afternoon that featured ideal conditions.
Northern finished runner-up with a 337, paced by Garrett Mainhart’s 81 and steady rounds from Kooper Cunningham (83) and Owen Forsythe (84). Greencastle placed third at 339, just two strokes back, as Camden Eby fired an 80 to place fourth individually. Gettysburg (344) and James Buchanan (349) rounded out the middle of the field, while Waynesboro (362) and host Big Spring (363) finished sixth and seventh.
Behind Horgos, standout rounds included Abram Stock of James Buchanan and Waynesboro’s Caiden Shacreaw, who tied for second at 79. Eby’s 80 secured fourth, while Mainhart led a group of golfers in the low 80s.
On the girls’ side, Shippensburg’s Kaydee Beckenbaugh continued her strong season with an 84, the lowest score among female competitors, while Waynesboro’s Abby Byers carded a 98.
With the victory, Shippensburg strengthened its hold on first place in the Colonial Division standings, remaining the lone unbeaten squad. Northern (5–1) and Greencastle (4–2) kept pace but still trail the Greyhounds heading into the back half of the season.
