The Voice of the Lions says:

Let's get caught up on our Lion Football team over the past 3 weeks.

On Sept. 30th the Lions traveled to New Oxford and dominated the Colonials football team winning 35-14 in a non-league contest. The win improved The Lion's record to 3 - 2 on the season.

On October 7th the Lions returned to Horn Field to host York High. The Lion's scored a good 31-14 victory over the William Penn Bearcats.

On October 14th, the crowd at the league contest between the Red Lion Lions and the host Spring Grove Rockets, observed Red Lion's football squad bounce Spring Grove by a tally of 49-7.

This is the Lions 5th straight win.

The Lions put it on the line tonight (Oct. 21st) when they host South Western for a York-Adams Division I match of undefeated (in league play teams). This is Homecoming 2011 and the homecoming queen will be crowned in festivities just before the game starting at approximately 6:40pm with kickoff at 7:00pm. This could possibly be the first of 3 championship type games for the Lions as the winner of this game will certainly be in the drivers seat and control it's own destiny as they drive for a league title. The Lions will clash with a Mustangs squad coming off a 26-20 league win over Central York and the emotional turmoil of one of their teammates being murdered in a senseless act of violence just two weeks ago. Just like the Lions the Mustangs record now stands at 5-2.


Congratulations to Erick Althoff who last week broke the record for career punt return yards when he returned a punt 61 yards for a touchdown. He currently has 599, having passed Ed Kiser's mark set in 2005. The previous mark was Kiser's 516 yards.

Also, congratulations again to quarterback Tanner Klinefelter who set another Lions record by taking over the career passing attempts record previously held by Taylor Green at 418. Tanner now sits at 436 career passing attempts and counting.
