ALL RIGHT, FIVE DAYS FROM TODAY. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL STADIUMS ACROSS THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY WILL BE JAM PACKED FOR WEEK ONE OF THE REGULAR SEASON. AS WE GET CLOSER TO GAME DAY. OUR FOOTBALL FRIDAY PREVIEWS CONTINUE WITH EASTERN YORK. THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS ARE COMING OFF A SOLID EIGHT AND THREE SEASON LAST FALL, BUT THEIR SEASON ENDED IN A TOUGH WAY, LOSING IN THE DISTRICT PLAYOFFS TO RIVAL WEST YORK 5 TO 3. THAT TWO POINT LOSS CAME AFTER EASTERN YORK WAS ELIMINATED IN THE 2023 PLAYOFFS WITH A SIX POINT LOSS TO MILTON HERSHEY, UNDER FOURTH YEAR HEAD COACH BUD KYLE. THIS TEAM HAS LEARNED VALUABLE LESSONS FROM THEIR PLAYOFF LOSSES, AND THEY FEEL LIKE THEY’RE READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP AND HAVE SUCCESS IN THE POSTSEASON. THAT STUFF MOTIVATES ME MORE THAN ANYTHING, ESPECIALLY, YOU KNOW, HEARING PEOPLE SAY, YOU KNOW, THE KNIGHTS NEVER WIN A BIG GAME, WHICH WE HAVEN’T. THAT’S PERFECTLY RIGHT TO THINK THAT BECAUSE WE HAVEN’T DONE IT. AND THAT’S THAT’S REALLY OUR GOAL TO PROVE PEOPLE WRONG. AND IF WE’RE GOING TO BE UNDERDOG, WE’RE GOING TO BEAT YOU NO MATTER NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE. AND I THINK THIS WHOLE OFFSEASON, THAT’S KIND OF BEEN A RALLYING CRY FOR US. IT’S ALWAYS A TOUGH LOSS WHEN YOU GO BACK AND WATCH FILM AND YOU’VE SEE THERE’S SO MANY THINGS YOU COULD HAVE DID DIFFERENTLY OR SO MANY THINGS THAT COULD HAVE WENT OUR WAY, A BOUNCE GO OUR WAY COULD CHANGE THE GAME. THEY’RE A REALLY GOOD GROUP OF KIDS. OFFSEASON IS REALLY WELL FOR US. THEY’RE IN THERE WORKING. WE SPEAK FAMILY ALL THE TIME AND ALL OFFSEASON. THEM GUYS ARE WORKING HARD JUST TO GET BACK TO WHERE THEY WAS AT LIKE THEY WAS LAST YEAR, BUT HOPEFULLY A DIFFERENT OUTCOME. AND EASTERN YORK OPENS THEIR SEASON AT HOME AGAINST COLUMBIA. NEWS EIGHT AT SIX. WE’LL BE R
