MECHANICSBURG — Six Schuylkill League football players and two area coaches have been selected to participate in the 2025 Titan Threadz Pennsylvania Scholastic Football Coaches Association East/West All-Star games.
The games will be played Sunday, May 18, at Cumberland Valley’s Chapman Field. The Small School (Class A-3A) game kicks off at noon, with the Large School (Class 4A-6A) game to follow at 5 p.m.
The six Schuylkill players selected will all participate in the Small School game: Tri-Valley quarterback Blake Schwartz, Nativity wide receiver Noah Dolbin, Marian offensive lineman Aidan Milkovits, North Schuylkill offensive lineman Sander Stokes and two players from Schuylkill Haven, cornerback Leyden Hertz and long snapper Adam Malinoski.
Panther Valley’s Mark Lavine is an assistant coach on the East Small School squad, while former Blue Mountain head coach and current Elizabethtown Area head coach Tom Gallagher is an assistant coach for the East Large School team.
“It’s awesome to see six county kids make the small-school team,” said Schuylkill Haven coach Mike Farr, who is the president of the PSFCA. “Just shows you the brand of football we have in Schuylkill County.”
Milkovits and Stokes will be joined on the offensive line by Mount Carmel’s Noah Shimko, Wyoming Area’s Chase DeSanto, Towanda’s Varrius Farrell, Northern Lehigh’s Cyrus Kinchen and Notre Dame-Green Pond’s Anthony Crisafulli.
Wyoming Area’s Randy Spencer is the East head coach, while Lavine, Pen Argyl’s Brady Mutton, Berwick’s C.J. Curry, Muncy’s Sean Tetreault and Central Columbia’s E.J. Smith round out the East coaching staff.
