    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 2011 Game 1, September 3, 2011: La Salle 44 – North Penn 27 by Kev Hunter, The Reporter North Penn stumbles in loss to La Salle North Penn had two double-digit leads Saturday night against La Salle College High School, but the Knights could not hold on, falling 44-27 at Plymouth-Whitemarsh. The Knights had a 21-10 lead at halftime and a 27-16 lead in the third quarter, but La Salle dominated the fourth. Wide receiver Colin Buckley caught four touchdown passes from Matt Magarity, all in the second half, to make the difference for La Salle in this rematch of last year’s Eastern Final. La Salle has now defeated North Penn three times in the past two seasons. Kyle Mayfield had a 71-yard touchdown run for the Knights and also a 75-yard run to set up another score, but the North Penn secondary could not cover Buckley. His 1-yard touchdown reception put La Salle ahead for good 30-27 in the fourth, and his nine-yarder extended the margin to 37-27. Four fumbles proved costly for the Knights, including the last one, which set up Tim Wade’s clinching five-yard touchdown run for La Salle. North Penn also lost to La Salle to end last season in the state semifinals by a score of 38-35. The Knights were ranked second in the state entering the contest by The Harrisburg Patriot-News but figure to take a tumble this week. by Dennis C.

    Pictured aboved are two of UCLA’s greatest basketball figures – on the left, Lew Alcindor (now Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) alongside the late head coach John R. Wooden. Alcindor helped lead UCLA to consecutive NCAA Championships in 1967, 1968 and 1969. Coach Wooden served as the Bruins’ head coach from 1948-1975, helping UCLA win 10 NCAA Championships in his 24 years at the helm. 111 RETIRED JERSEY NUMBERS #25 GAIL GOODRICH Ceremony: Dec. 18, 2004 (Pauley Pavilion) When UCLA hosted Michigan on Dec. 18, 2004, Gail Goodrich has his No. 25 jersey number retired, becoming the school’s seventh men’s basketball player to achieve the honor. A member of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Goodrich helped lead UCLA to its first two NCAA championships (1964, 1965). Notes on Gail Goodrich A three-year letterman (1963-65) under John Wooden, Goodrich was the leading scorer on UCLA’s first two NCAA Championship teams (1964, 1965) … as a senior co-captain (with Keith Erickson) and All-America selection in 1965, he averaged a team-leading 24.8 points … in the 1965 NCAA championship, his then-title game record 42 points led No. 2 UCLA to an 87-66 victory over No. 1 Michigan … as a junior, with backcourt teammate and senior Walt Hazzard, Goodrich was the leading scorer (21.5 ppg) on a team that recorded the school’s first perfect 30-0 record and first-ever NCAA title … a two-time NCAA Final Four All-Tournament team selection (1964, 1965) … finished his career as UCLA’s all-time leader scorer (1,690 points, now No.

  • Chronicle 2013 by Chris Jastrzembski, WEXP Sports Blog, August 11, 2013
    La Salle College High School Football: Chronicle 2013 by Chris Jastrzembski, WEXP Sports Blog, August 11, 2013 Training Camp Preview Today begins the first day of La Salle Sports for the 2013-2014 school year, with practices and tryouts beginning. One of the biggest events during this time is training camp. Throughout these next two weeks, we will have news about what’s going on in camp, including interviews, videos, and possibly new things that have not been done in years past. Let’s take a look at some key stories that we will cover in the next couple of weeks. 1. The arrival of QB Kyle Shurmur This has been the most talked about subject at La Salle since early this calendar year. He’s 6-foot-4 and weighs 210 pounds, and is the son of current Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur. This will be his first year as a starting QB and he also gets to work with offensive coordinator Brett Gordon (Shurmur will be wearing Brett’s old number on the field this season, #9 [editor’s note – right now, it seems to be number 14]). It will be interesting to see what the two-sport athlete (also a swimmer) brings to this team and if he can pick up where current Kutztown QB Chris Kane left off. Shurmur also wanted to play safety this year, but head coach Drew Gordon is not open to that idea for this year only. 2. No-Huddle Offense Along with a new quarterback also comes a new offense Drew Gordon will use this year.
