Geisinger CEO hears about health issues affecting Northeastern Pennsylvania

<p>The Ohio State field hockey team is ranked 25th in the country and the Buckeyes are getting solid play from a pair of former Crestwood High standouts.</p><p>Senior Morgan Kile and junior Casey Cole have both started all 15 games with Kile at forward and Cole in the midfield. The team is 8-7 and 1-5 in the powerful Big Ten Conference after a 2-0 league victory over Rutgers Sunday in Piscataway, N.J.</p><p>Kile has two goals and an assist and picked up the game-winning goal and an assist in a 3-0 victory over Ohio University on Sept. 17.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s been a pleasure coaching Morgan,&#8221; first-year coach Jarred Martin said. &#8220;As a senior captain, she is a proven leader and she brings her speed and skill to the field. I have enjoyed watching her senior campaign bring some of her best hockey as a Buckeye.&#8221;</p><p>Cole has two goals and two assists, and both of her goals were overtime game-winners against nationally ranked teams &#8211; a 2-1 victory over No. 9 Louisville on Sept. 1 and a 3-2 triumph over No. 11 Stanford on Sept. 30.</p><p>&#8220;Casey is a tremendous midfielder,&#8221; Martin said. &#8220;She&#8217;s someone who has great stick skills and also the athleticism to not only play in the midfield but control and even dominate the midfield at times. She is such a competitor, and I have seen some great moments from her in critical situations.</p><p>&#8220;We have had some big results this year and Casey is always in the mix making plays or scoring goals.&#8221;</p><p><strong>Big effort for DeLuca</strong></p><p>Senior Dominic DeLuca continues to be the top runner for the Cornell men&#8217;s cross country team. The Dallas grad finished fourth out of 128 runners at Penn State&#8217;s National Invitational last Friday in State College. His time for the 5.2-mile course was 25:19.</p><p>DeLuca is fresh from finishing 12th at the Paul Short Run on Sept. 29 in Bethlehem when he covered the 8,000-meter course in 23:48, which is the second fastest time at that distance in Cornell history.</p><p><strong>School record for Boler</strong></p><p>Freshman Payton Boler set a Bryn Athyn field hockey record when she collected 12 points in an 11-0 home victory over Sweet Briar on Oct. 7 in Bryn Athyn. The Wyoming Valley West grad had five goals and two assists.</p><p>She had three goals and an assist in a 10-0 triumph over Notre Dame (Md.) on Sept. 16. The performances earned Boler North Eastern Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors.</p><p><strong>Personal record for Myers</strong></p><p>St. Joseph&#8217;s senior Andrew Myers finished second out of 47 runners at Lafayette&#8217;s Leopard Invitational last Saturday in Easton. The Hazleton Area grad posted a personal best time of 26:55.7 over the 8,000-meter course.</p><p>The Hawks, ranked 12th in the Mid-Atlantic Region, had seven runners finish in the top 10 and totaled 16 points to best three other teams. Myers will compete next in the Atlantic 10 Conference Championships on Oct. 28 in Leesburg, Va.</p><p><strong>Davis seeing action</strong></p><p>After sitting on the sidelines watching a junior in goal for eight games, freshman Paige Davis has played in the net in five of the last six games with four straight starts for the 5-7-2 New Haven women&#8217;s soccer team.</p><p>The Coughlin grad played all 90 minutes in four games and has a 2-2 record, giving up five goals with 23 saves. Davis lost 1-0 to St. Rose in her first start on Sept. 30 and then picked up 2-1 victories over Stonehill and Assumption in her next two starts. On Oct. 11 she had a career-high nine saves in a 1-0 loss to No. 10-ranked Adelphi in Garden City, N.Y.</p><p><strong>Weekly honor for Mattson</strong></p><p>Sophomore Ruby Mattson earned Offensive Player of the Week honors in the Presidents&#8217; Athletic Conference Monday after back-to-back big games for the Grove City women&#8217;s soccer team. The Dallas grad had a goal and an assist in a 6-1 league victory over Geneva on Oct. 11 and had two goals in a 9-1 league victory over Bethany last Saturday.</p><p>She has five goals and two assists for a team-high 12 points for the Wolverines, who are 9-4 overall and 4-1 in PAC play.</p><p><strong>Termini&#8217;s season cut short</strong></p><p>Junior Olivia Termini scored three goals for the Dickinson women&#8217;s soccer team &#8212; all game-winners &#8212; but the Crestwood grad saw the season end after eight games because of an injury.</p><p>She had the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Randolph-Macon on Sept. 3, the game-winner in a 7-1 triumph over Mt. St. Vincent on Sept. 9 and the first goal in a 4-0 win over Shenandoah on Sept. 12. She is still a part of the team and sings the national anthem before games.</p><p><strong>Berwick duo aids W&amp;J</strong></p><p>Senior keeper Allison Rinehimer and junior Brianna Floryshak, both former Berwick athletes, are key performers on the Washington &amp; Jefferson women&#8217;s soccer team (8-5-1, 3-2-0 Presidents&#8217; Athletic Conference).</p><p>Rinehimer has started 10 games in goal and has a 6-4-1 record with two shutouts. She has given up 10 goals with 34 saves. Floryshak has started all 14 games on defense and scored a goal on a 3-2 victory over Thiel on Monday.</p><p><strong>Gearinger helps Fords</strong></p><p>Junior Dylan Gearinger finished third to help the No. 4-ranked Haverford men&#8217;s cross country team top a field of 28 schools at the Inter-Regional Border Battle on Saturday in Mullica Hill, N.J. The Berwick grad covered the 8,000-meter course in 25:03 and was the second finisher for the Fords, who had four runners in the top 10.</p><p>Haverford, a three-time defending champion, will compete next in the Centennial Conference Championships on Oct. 29 in Gettysburg.</p><p><strong>Harding leads York women</strong></p><p>Freshman Emma Harding finished third and helped the York women&#8217;s golf team finish second in the Stevenson Fall Invitational on Thursday in Hampstead, Md. The Tunkhannock grad shot an 89 and finished two shots behind the second-place finisher and nine behind the medalist.</p><p>Harding had her best round of the fall when she shot 83 to go along with a 92 at Washington &amp; Lee&#8217;s General Invitational on Oct. 2-3 in Lexington, Va.</p><style>
