Tough season opener in Tamaqua

The Olympians fought back from an early deficit to tie the game twice.

The third tie came with about a minute left with a John Fritz diving catch from Corey Cinicola.

The refs made a horrible call which put our kicker on the 18 yard line so we went for two points and missed.

Final score: Tamaqua 28 Jim Thorpe 27

Tough loss guys.

Now, let’s look ahead to beat the Golden Bears next Friday!

Jim Thorpe’s defense looked solid with Tyler Mangold, Mike Carpenter and Fox building an imposing wall at the line.

Cody Baier scored a touchdown on a run from QB Corey Cinicola.

There were lots of other great plays and thanks to the fans who came out to cheer on the team!
