In response to the ever changing landscape of interscholastic athletics and the unprecedented challenges caused by COVID and now the weather, the Lancaster Lebanon League Executive Committee, at the recommendation of the L-L League Basketball Sports Chair, has approved modifications that will help alleviate the pressure of rescheduling games. Effective immediately, the following shall apply:

Crossover games will NOT count towards a team’s Section/League record.  Section games only will impact standings and determine champions.  Ties will be determined by criteria (Head to Head, D3 Power Ranking.

The expectation of the L-L League is for all crossover games to be played.  The order of priority when rescheduling games: Section games, Crossover games, Non-League Games.

Interscholastic athletics runs in a 2 year cycle.  Every two years enrollment classifications can change (A, AA, AAA, etc. for District 3 and PIAA purposes) and the Lancaster-Lebanon League adjusts section alignment.  

The following section alignments will take effect for the 2022-2023 academic year and run through the 2023-2024 academic year.  As a reminder, football alignments, which now include Berks County schools, were announced earlier.  Alignments are proposed by a realignment committee and voted on by the league athletic directors and then principals.  Each sport is voted separately, and only schools which participate in a given sport vote to approve or deny a sports realignment proposal.

The Lancaster Lebanon League is please to announce section Sportsmanship Award winners for each sport of the 2020 Fall Season.  The League Athletic Directors will be voting on an overall winner for the fall season.

The Lancaster Lebanon League is in a temporary holding pattern following Governor Wolf’s limited time mitigation order issued on December 10th.  The PIAA is planning a press release for Friday, 12/11, and the District 3 committee will meet on Tuesday, 12/15.  Once information from the PIAA and District 3 is communicated to leagues, the LL League will begin working on revised plans for winter sports.

Starting with the 2022 season, the Lancaster-Lebanon League will welcome our neighbors to the East from Berks county for football (only football).  This will create 5 sections, aligned as follows for 2022 and 2023:

Sections 1, 2 and 3 teams will each have a BYE week during the league season, during which teams can schedule a non-section opponent.

Due to the forecast for heavy rain Thursday evening, and in an effort to keep the league field hockey playoffs on schedule and not require back-to-back game days, the semifinals have been moved to Spooky Nook Sports’ dome facility.

The Section 3 race in Field Hockey was even closer, so close that the regular season was not enough.  ELCO will play Garden Spot in a Section Championship Tiebreaker on October 27th at 7 pm at Cocalico.  Semifinals are October 29th at 7 pm:

• Penn Manor vs Lancaster Mennonite at Donegal
• Section 3 Champion vs Lampeter-Strasburg at Cocalico

Field Hockey Bracket

On a day with weather to match yesterday’s boys’ championship, the girls contest was more hotly contested in both the individual finish and the team scoring.

Alyssa Fedorshak of Ephrata crossed the line first in 19:29, just 3 seconds ahead of runner up Anna Martin of Warwick.  Martin was the first of 4 Warriors in the top 20, and with the 5th scorer in 25th overall, it was enough to edge McCaskey by one point for the team title.
