Podcast Show #61 Head Coach Frank Girardi

Listen
Bill Byham and I were very glad to have Lycoming College Head Football Coach Frank Girardi on the show for the second time.

If you think January is a month to catch you breath after a busy fall as the head coach you are very mistaken. From the last tick of the game clock in November 2005 against Susquehanna, Lycoming had just a couple of days to savor Frank’s 250th win.

Then it is recruiting time for four of the coaches, campus visits, talking to the coach for both prospective player and family and finalizing plans for another season in the fall of 2006 Frank told us about that process and some other information we know you will be interested in.

Thanks for listening to podcast #61 and our second sit-down with "Coach G."

Girardi Wins 250th in Overtime Thriller

WILLIAMSPORT - Lycoming College head football coach Frank Girardi earned the 250th victory of his illustrious career as the Warriors capped the 2005 season with a 17-10 overtime victory over longtime rival Susquehanna University on Saturday afternoon.

Quarterback Glenn Smith (Watsontown, Pa./Warrior Run) scored on an 11-yard scamper during Lycoming's overtime possession to give the Warriors the lead. The defense, stout all game, made Smith's seventh touchdown run of the season stand up as they forced the Warriors on downs to secure the victory.

The triumph concluded an exciting campaign in which the Warriors dug out of a 1-4 hole to finish with a 6-4 mark and a five-game winning streak that will carry over until next season.
