FOX56’s Friday Night Rivals board has Sept. 25 as Lake-Lehman at Hanover Area, live on MYTV WQMY. Robert Ide’s Week 4 FNR Top Ten piece Tuesday night said the same thing — Hawkeyes host the Black Knights at Memorial Stadium. There is no public television embed for Berwick this week.
Radio is lined up. NEPA Football’s Week 5 board lists Berwick at Pottsville on WHLM. That is Jim Doyle and Andy Ulicny on GOAT Rocks PA — 102.3, 104.3, 107.1, AM 930 and 1280, and goatrockspa.com. C.J. Curry Show at 6, pregame at 6:30, kick at 7 at Veterans’ Memorial Stadium. The NEPA event page for this one is Listen only. NFHS Network has a subscription event page for the road kick — not a free on-page embed.
Berwick is 2-2 and 2-1 in conference after the Wilkes-Barre Area loss at Crispin. The Tide and Dawgs have not met since 2015. Times Leader and Citizens’ Voice have not posted a fresh Week 5 Berwick–Pottsville capsule as of Wednesday morning. The Republican Herald’s August Gameface already circled this non-league date; its Sep. 19 Blue Mountain–Pottsville write-up is Pottsville-primary, not Berwick.
Road Friday. Listen.
