If you’re buying a house, the three most important things are -- wait for it -- “location, location and location.”
If you’re part of the boys volleyball team at Lancaster Mennonite High School, you want to follow the first three rules of Coach Anthony Hernandez (top left) – “communicate, communicate and communicate!”
The next three are equally important, the first-year boys coach says – “hustle, hustle, hustle!”
Kyler Buckwalter knows success. He just finished his senior season as a member of Lancaster Mennonite’s Lancaster-Lebanon League championship basketball team. He hopes to carry that success to the baseball diamond.
This spring Mennonite will field a small squad with just six seniors. Kyle sees two freshmen who could compete immediately.
Kyle, as the catcher on the team, thinks Mennonite has the best pitching staff in years with ace Jack Snader backed up by Ian Yen and freshman Asher KenKelen.
Key Section 4 opponents on LM’s schedule are Pequea Valley and Annville.
It was a magical, championship season for Lancaster Mennonite boys soccer in 2024.
But gone are nine seniors from the team that won the state championship for the Blazers last season.
Coach Anthony Hernandez has seen steady improvement in the Lancaster Mennonite girls volleyball team during the past two seasons, and he's confident the team will take it a step further this season.
