Hazleton High School 1956 Yearbook (Hazleton, PA) - Full Access

ED BROMINSKI Coach TONY SCARCELLA Assistant Coach After several disappointments earlier in the season, the Haz.leton Mountaineers gave the class of 1956 moments to remember as they bounced back and tumbled the West Hazleton Wildcats in the annual Thanksgiving Day cia ic. This victory more than compensated for the earlier set backs which the team sustained. With deep appreciation we want to say thanks. The boys played strong teams and fought hard until the final seconds ticked otT and the gun sounded. The loyal fans suffered along with the squad and stuck with them. When the Turkey Game arrived, the support and confidence in the team was not betrayed and all were well rewarded. Being the outstanding Hazleton player of the Thanksgiving Day game, Ed Donald receives the Carson Walsky-Hunky Moran award. The season produced some fine individual stars. We can still see a back zig-zagging back and forth and then break– ing into the clear for a touchdown, or a lineman making a beautiful tackle. But all in all, each game was still a team effort. We wi h to commend each member of the team, every coach, and all miscellaneous persons who again carried the name of Hazleton High through another season. They have kept the tradition of Hazleton's fine sportsmanship. Left to right: First Row-G. Bellinghau en, T. Dolon, N. Hawkes, P. Manko, J. Campbell, E. Donald, B. Kisthart, R. Monks, K. Guenther, B.
