Season ends in semi-finals


The Avonworth Antelopes' winning season ended just a hair short of the WPIAL championship. The Avonworth offense struggled against a powerhouse Rochester Rams squad at Ambridge Stadium Friday, losing 20-7. The defense kicked in during the second half, holding Rochester to three points. The story was a different one the Friday before, as the Antelopes took on North Catholic in the WPIAL quarterfinals. Pictured here, the Trojan quarterback doesn’t get far, brought down the Antelopes’ star linebacker Eddie Kurtz, backed up by defensive lineman A. J. Mang.
