Max Hine became an ace in the hole as he joins a full house of Beavers who will represent the North in the 28th Annual Lezzer Lumber Classic this summer.  Jake Dowling, Dylan Himes, Garrett Kerner, Broc McKolosky,  and Sean Sleigh were selected earlier by the Central Pennsylvania Football Coaches Association.  Max’s record breaking career at DuBois made him more than worthy of the honor.  Congratulations to all the DuBois seniors who still have one final game to play at Huntingdon’s War Vets Field on Friday, June 22nd, 2012.

Coach V looks on as a talented group of athletes pushes the Beaver Express to the next level.  Year two of the Varischetti experiment will challenge the football IQ of a squad now in its second year of the system with a strong foundation.  Coach Varischetti has many twists planned for the 2012 version of his high flying, fast paced offense and it is clear that he has a dedicated group of players willing to volunteer their time to learn.

Akron tight end and former Beaver, Paul Butler, spent his spring break catching passes with a dozen DuBois players Friday afternoon. Butler shared his work ethic and experience with the next generation of receivers while preparing himself for the coming season at the University of Akron.

With basketball and wrestling coming to end, the field and weight room are once again full of athletes hungry for another season. Junior Receiver Garrett Miles jams while he warms up in one of the school’s new squat racks.

Although the 2012 Beaver Schedule is a work in progress, regional football fans have a lot to be excited about.   The tentative lineup has DuBois traveling to a face a solid Mifflin County squad in week one.  The other new comers to the schedule are the Dragons from Warren.  A rematch with a talented Slippery Rock team remains on the schedule for 2012. The Rockets have been an enigma for the Beaver defense at all levels of the program.  The game should be the ultimate chess match for coach DeSantis.  If last season’s JV game is any indication, an athletic Meadville unit should provide a great challenge for the men in black over the next two years.  Rumors of a possible cooperative merger with Cranberry could mean that Oil City will be bringing a deeper squad to Mansell this season.   The 2012-13 schedule also retains Punxsutawney for two more years, a game that local fans love to see on the schedule.  DuBois is currently seeking an opponent for week six.   This season should provide lots of fireworks for the Beaver Nation.
