The Miners are battle tested after playing one of the more challenging schedules in the Regional American Football League (RAFL). Our hometown team is looking to start a win streak of there own and get a home playoff game in Scranton . The Miners are already motivated knowing the RAFL Championship game is being held November 1st at Scranton Memorial Stadium.

Antosh who is approaching 2000 yards passing on the season.

The fans at Scranton Memorial Stadium will not only enjoy an action packed football game but a half time concert by the up and coming female R & B group Minxx.
