Shikellamy Braves

District IV may have its favorites, but in this wild 2025 season, nothing is guaranteed once the lights come on Friday night.

Under the bright lights and a sea of yellow, Friday night’s matchup between Shamokin Area and Shikellamy High School was about more than football. The Shikellamy home opener was marked by a special “Yellow Out” to honor the memory of Alec Litchard, a local boy who tragically passed away from cancer last year. Fans from both schools united in a moving show of support for Alec’s family and the Alec’s Angels Foundation.

If Week 1 served as a wake-up call, Week 2 shook the very foundation of the District IV football landscape. While some teams solidified their places, others saw their early momentum derailed—and new contenders have stormed into the spotlight.

Williamsport came alive in the third, stringing together timely hits and aggressive base running to take firm control of the game early. The Millionaires tacked on one run apiece in the fifth and sixth innings, building a 7-0 lead heading into the final frames.
