PURCHASE LINE, NORTHERN CAMBRIA FALL SHORT IN PIAA VOLLEYBALL TOURNEY

Both Purchase Line and Northern Cambria bowed out of the PIAA 2A volleyball tournament with first round losses. Purchase Line dropped a tense five-setter to WPIAL third-place finisher Fort Cherry. The Red Dragons took the first set, 25-17, dropped the second and third by scores of 25-22 in both, then won the fourth, 25-23 before dropping the final frame, 15-11. Fort Cherry’s Emily Pfender cranked a kill for what appeared to be the game-winner, with her team surging out onto the court, but a net violation negated the point, so Pfender had to do it again, and did.

DOC NYC 2026 Review: There’s Strong Shelf Life in an Old Way of Life in Brian Becker’s Felicitous “Mall Country”

It’s apparent early on in “Mall Country” that Leo Karruli didn’t know what exactly he was buying when he won an auction to purchase the Johnstown Galleria in a small Western Pennsylvania. Scouring the internet for real estate investments after becoming a successful restauranteur in Florida, achieving the American dream when he worked his way up from being a dishwasher from Albania to ultimately having an Italian place of his own, he couldn’t pass up the opportunity to buy a fully functional shopping center for just $1.4 million, though as his wife Irene notes, there wasn’t much wiggle room to back out when he made an impulsive bid, only to learn there were no other interested buyers.
