Good morning, Harrisburg.

At the Nov 18th board meeting, Susquenita School District auditor Klacick and Associates reported the district received a clean audit for its 2025 financial statements and federal grant compliance—praising the business office for moving the audit to November to allow timely financial planning while noting a general fund balance of over $18 million with revenue near $39.4 million and spending of about $40.4 million.

Today, a weak system brings a light mix of snow and rain with cloudy skies and temperatures near 40°.

Officials are closely watching a potential winter storm for Tuesday that may bring plowable snow as gusty winds affect travel.

The Crusaders will meet Roman Catholic at 7 p.m. Friday at Chapman Field (state rematch) as they advance to the PIAA Championships.

Penn State beat Rutgers 40-36 on Saturday when Amare Campbell scored a late touchdown to secure the win—players like Antwan Raymond and Nicholas Singleton helped in a game marked by several lead changes.

Nick Singleton of Penn State broke two longstanding records during his final regular-season game at Rutgers on November 22nd when he scored his 44th rushing touchdown and 54th all-purpose touchdown—surpassing Saquon Barkley's marks from 2017 and moving into the top five for career rushing yards.

Bishop McDevitt quarterback Sebastian Williams led his team to a 31-28 win over Peters Township on Nov.29 and is set to compete in the state championship against Roman Catholic on Friday night — his strong fourth quarter drives and steady improvement have put the Crusaders one win from a title game.

Yesterday, Pittsburgh Central Catholic’s sophomore running back Chrys Black rushed for 211 yards and scored three touchdowns as he led his team to a 32-14 semifinal win over Harrisburg at Mansion Park Stadium.
