Waymart, USP Canaan Split Annual Waymart Bowl Series
December 28, 2023 12:00 AM
On Nov. 12, employees from SCI Waymart and USP Canaan resumed their rivalry at the venerable Varden Garden of Western Wayne High School in the recently reestablished Waymart Bowl: a pair of football games pitting these partners in corrections against each other for a good cause.
History was made as the tenacious state female players blended into a well-oiled machine marching on to a first-time victory, 33-12, finally defeating the dominating fed champs. Despite the state women’s win, the state men were unable to carry the momentum and turned in a 6-33 loss to the feds.
All proceeds from this annual charitable event — which was raised through the basket raffles, 50/50, food and beverage sales — were donated to local veteran organizations. Special credit to Retired Lieutenant Michelle Griffin of SCI Waymart, who promises to carry on the match-up for the coveted Windmill Trophy for years to come.
