SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD (COACH BRESLIN’S REPORT) “The Mile Relay Team was the backbone of that undefeated track squad. Made up of only one natural quarter miler, Adam Williams (who also won the State Championship in the 440), the remainder of the team was made up of George Teufel, a sprinter; Jake Patrick, a hurdler, and Bob McCann, a half miler. But they blended together to win at the Penn Relays and in every other meet they entered, including the State Championship. In the State Meet that ‘45 Team scored more points than any other Mount Carmel Team before or since. There were two firsts by the relay team and Williams and Place Ribbons for Teufel in the hurdles ad Tom Cole in the Shot.” (RUNNERS REPORT) “It was a raw, rainy day and each ember of the relay team had already labored through their separate events. Patrick ran in both hurdle races, Teufel ran in both dashes. McCann had completed an exhausting 880 race and Adam Williams had already won the State 440 Championship. The track was covered with water on both turns, and Coach Breslin juggled the order of runners to compensate for the conditions… Teufel, McCann and Patrick carried the baton in that order…leaving Williams a four yard deficit to overcome. Adam pursued the leader until he caught him at the 220 yard mark, and at the final turn both began their kick to the wire. The outcome was assured, for their was no one who could match the heart and drive of Adam Williams over the last 160 yards of a quarter mile race.”

SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD The 1945 squad of coaches Mike Terry and George Wrona began the season under a lot of pressure. After the stunning success of the 1944 team which had won 11 in a row and the Eastern Conference Championship they felt pressure to maintain the unbeaten streak and to repeat as champions. Coach Terry knew his team would be strong again defensively; but in an attempt to add some punch to the offense he moved Bernie Barkouskie, who had been a two tackle to fullback on offense. Barkouskie became a battering ram in an offense which emphasized ball control. The defense performed as expected, giving up only three touchdowns and a total of 20 points in the 10-game regular season. In the title game against Larksvillw, the Wildcats trailed 12-6 late in the game when they began a sustained drive, featuring the powerful short-yardage runs of Barkouskie. With the time running out, and a first down at the Larksville 5 yard line, Barkouskie carried three consecutive times to the one yard line. With fourth and one, Larksville gathered for one final shot by Barkouskie. Instead, the Cats ran the Buck-Lateral series, faking to Barkouskie then pitching wide to George Rick, who walked into the end zone, completely taking Larksville by surprise.

INDUCTEE “Vic” Dall was a big, strong, tough, intelligent, mostly quiet guy who was universally requested by people who knew him as an athlete, official, and school administrator. Viewed from the perspective of a seventh grader, he was imposing…a guy so big he seemed to fill up the room. You just knew that he was not a guy seventh graders messed around with too much. He was a member of the 1927 State Championship Team. (Was there any one on that team who was not successful in life as they were athletically?) From there he went on to Villanova University where he played the other end opposite Mike terry. Their coach at Villanova was Harry Stuhldreher, one of the immortal “Four Horsemen.” After graduation he returned to Kulpmont as an assistant to Mike Terry, and after a year let to join Walter Levine’s staff in Mount Carmel. When Levine was replaced by Al Jones he continued as an assistant for another three years. In 1937 he was co-coach of the Tornadoes, along with Joe Ambrose. After a year he left coaching and became a PIAA Official, and became one of the most respected officials in the area. He continued as an official until 1950, when he was persuaded by Mike Terry to coach linemen for the Tornadoes. He remained in that capacity until 1956, when he again gave it up and concentrated on his administrative duties as principal of Mt. Carmel Junior High School. Vic was an excellent administrator, and was instrumental in setting up the jointures between Mount Carmel and Moutn Carmel Township, and later the addition of Centrailia, Kulpmont, and Marion Heights. “The Bull”, as he was known to a generation of students, was a respected and admired member of the community. A terrific athlete who was also an exemplary student and teacher. He is a wonderful addition to our Hall of Fame.

INDUCTEE “Lefty” Kerdock was a Mount Carmel buy who has the dream and almost made it come true. He grew up fantasizing about playing with the St. Louis Cardinals and in 1928 he achieved step 1 by being signed by Branch Rickey, then general manager of the Cardinals. He began his career in the South Atlantic League, and began to progress through the Cardinal Farm System. In 1934 he was added to the roster of the 1934 St. Louis Cardinal Championship Team for Spring Training. He sustained a heart-breaking arm injury in training, ruining any chance he had of being on the opening game roster. However, the Cardinals loved his attitude and Coal Region approach to work; and they carried him with them team as batting practice pitcher. He later filled the same role as batting practice pitcher for the Phillies until 1940. He attempted a comeback with Binghampton in the New York Penn League and Hazleton in the Eastern League. But the arm no longer had the zip and he eventually retired. He returned to Mount Carmel…and for a time helped to manage the Mount Carmel Legion Teener Team in concert with Frank Merges, another Mount Carmel player with a distinguished minor league career. He died in July 1979. Never quite fulfilling the dream of playing with the Gas House Gang Championship Teams.

INDUCTEE “Sheppy” was a dominating football player on every level. Yet he got better as he went along, and by the time he finished at Bloomsburg University he held most of the career and season tackle and defensive point records for the Huskies. A tipoff on how well he was regarded at Bloomsburg: he was team captain for four years, 1982, 83, 84, 85. He was the most valuable player in 84 and 85; and the University’s undergraduate male athlete of the year in 83-84. “Sheppy” led or tied the team in tackles in 35 of the 43 games in which he played. In his four year career at Bloomsburg, he started and played in every game. He was first team AP All American Linebacker in both the 83 an 84 season, and All East the same years. He once registered 17 tackles in one game against Millersville State. He was so much fun to watch. Much is made about how offenses made special plans to handle Lawrence Taylor in his prime as a linebacker for the New York Giants. But in his way, on his level, Frank Sheptock was every bit as dominant. He was always on or around the ball, and more importantly, he made the people around him better because of his presence. He also holds Mount Carmel records for tackles in a season (166) and tackles in one game (24). A great, great football player, Frank Sheptock is Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Coordinator at Wilkes University. His team was 1993 MAC Champions and participated in the NCAA playoffs. His 94 teams was Freedom Division Champions and ECAC Southeast Champions.

INDUCTEE Tommy Cole was a special athlete. A great combination of strength and intelligence, speed and power. You might say he was bred for the job. He set the school shot put record, broken in 1992 by Mike Fantanarosa. But until Mike got in the act, that record was strictly a family affair. Held originally by Tom’s Dad, the record was in turn held bu his uncle, Dan Ficca, his brother, Lou and finally Tom with a heave of 56 feet 9 inches in 1981. He won the District Championship in both 81 and 82: and as a senior finished second in the state indoor championship and 6th in the outdoor championship. That year, they were the only meets he did not win. But it was as a footballer that he achieved special status. As a senior Red Tornado he scored 9 touchdowns and was an all league, All State and All American Linebacker. Strength training was always an important part of his training regimen; and spurred on by his father, Tom who was almost visionary in his recognition of the importance of weight training to athletics. Tommy bench pressed 400 pounds as a junior in high school. Not coincidentally, the only other Tornado athlete to accomplish that at the time was his brother, Lou. Tommy started three years as a linebacker for Brown. As a senior he led the ream in tackles and had two interceptions. He was the heart and soul of a Brown defense that was number one in the Ivy League and the East and seventh in the nation. That team shout out four of its opponents, setting a school record in the process. He was player of the week after a 15-tackle performance against Penn; and the recipient of the Hillhouse Limited Award as the unsung hero of the football squad. Tommy graduated Cum Laude from New England School of Law. He is presently an associate with Clark, Lauder, Fortenbaugh & Young in Philadelphia.

INDUCTEE Alex is another of those unselfish guys whose devotion and commitment to kids sports has contributed to the community and the kids whose life he touched. He was a four sport star at Conyngham Township until 1941. Like so many others at the time, he left school to enlist in the Army. From 1943 to 1945 he was a Military Policeman with the U.S. Army in Germany. While there he found time to compete in football, baseball, and boxing. After the was he returned home and got involved with semi-pro baseball with Star Lane. In 1950 he was a coach for the Mount Carmel Legion Team which won several league championships. In 1958 the Atlas Fire Company Softball team. In 1963 the Atlas Hose Little League Team. In 1966 the Atlas Black Diamond Teener Team. In 9173 he tool over the Mt. Carmel Rotary Teener Team. Everywhere he went there was a common GmarShops Marketplace , adidas superstar maroon stripes dress shoes black , yeezy hoodie alternatives free occurrence: his teams executed fundamentals extremely well and the won championships. He has won championships on every level. Bush League, Little League, and Teener League. And always he coached because he loved baseball, the kids and the opportunity to be around the game.

INDUCTEE All over the country people are beginning to question the value of kid sports. Measuring the obvious benefits against the excesses and the overemphasis on winning at all costs leaves some people wondering. Not to worry where “Bronx” is concerned. For 26 years he has coached the same simple philosophy: “Try your hardest. Fun is more important than the final score. Everybody plays. Learn to execute the fundamental things.” The problem has been that most people who coach do so because they want to favor their own kids. Bronx has done it where none of his own kids was involved. He gave all his time teaching the game to other peoples kids. He began in 1969 as a volunteer to Mike Rudock and ha hes continued for 26 summers. Many of them assisted by George Kroutch. The real test of how successful he has been is in the makeup of some of his present day rosters. They contain the sons of some of his original players who want their kids to learn the same lessons they got on baseball and sportsmanship. Bronx was a pretty fair country softball player for Atlas Hose Company, managed bu Joe “Hobie” Forti. And their friendly rivalry continued for many years, including several league championship series. But it was as a junior league coach where “Bronx” has made the most important contributions.
