She starts the day singing the national anthem, then caps it by winning state wrestling gold in 124 lb class! @CVSDeagles Eliana White-vega with a day to remember at Giant Center!! Here's highlights of her championship performance @CVSDnews @PIAASports @piaadistrict3 @fox43

[Nathan Yerges @yergesphotog]

Taking home the gold for @CVSDeagles and being the first one to do it in PIAA girls wrestling history is a big deal for Elianna White-Vega. But better than that? Hearing her give all the glory to God. Take a listen.

@Miss_Bellatrix Howard did a better job than Reynolds of acting the role of commanding officer on the field . . . But XI Corps still broke first. 😁

@MrsOeducates I was there too! We look good in those gowns!

2) I discovered Hoerner’s marker while exploring the cemetery this week. Lying next to him is his brother David, age 21, who died the previous year while a prisoner at Andersonville after serving in the 13th PA Cavalry. On this anniversary Thomas’ death, not forgotten.
