During the weekend of September 14th and 15th, the Frackville Mountaineers held their Annual Basket Raffle/Auction which supports their football and cheerleading program.
One of the prizes for the event, was a signed football of the entire 2019 North Schuylkill football team. The prize could be very valuable one day due the fact that there are many talented players on their team this year. As of the end of Week 7, the team is also ranked #1 in the District XI AAA Class.
On Sunday, September 15th, the winner of the prize was drawn and it was won by Katie, 11, and Karaline Reilly, 7, of Frackville, along with their mom, Kristina.
The girls, being huge Spartans fans, loved the prize, and mom, Kristina, thought it would be fun to meet and get a photo with the team as well.
Mom spoke with members of the Booster Club who got in touch with Coach Hall to arrange the photo.
This past Friday, the girls went to the game with their mom and waited until the game was over. The team had their final huddle with Coach Wally Hall and before leaving the field, the team called the girls out to the field for their photo.
The girls met the team at the 50 yard line and got their photo. They also got a photo with the 2019 Seniors as well as a photo with Senior and Penn State Commit Tyler Elsdon.
Katie and Karaline's mom, Kristina said "Thank you to the entire team, Coach Hall, Glenn Weist, and Amy Hudock-Wahalec for making it happen".
Both girls hope to be North Schuylkill Spartan Cheerleaders when they get to high school.
