Jason Schilling had such an impact on hisDallas High School baseball teammates thathis memory is guiding them through their
current season.Schilling was an outfielder for the Dallas High
School baseball team for three years. His jersey- No. 31 - was not issued to any player for thisseasonand histeammates will hang thejersey in
the dugout every time it plays a game.A 2012 graduate of Dallas High School, Schil-
ling died Dec. 1, 2012, when the automobile hewas driving crashed into a tree on CarpenterRoad in Dallas. His friends have created a livingmemorial at the tree.
Prior to theMountaineers game against Lake-Lehman last week, members of the team invitedSchillings family to be part of a sideline cere-mony where they were presented with a framedt-shirt made to look like a Dallas High Schoolbaseball jersey with the No. 31 on it. The jerseyhas Schillings initials and the initials of RonNoyalis on the sleeve. Noyalis, father of formerDHS baseball standout Marc Noyalis, was killedlast year while clearing trees.
Jim and Susan Schilling and their son, Ste-
phen, were allon hand at theinformal ceremony.It was very emotional, Jim Schilling said a
few days later. To me, its clearly a testamentto the kids and the coaching staff. The gesturespeaks to the goodness in their hearts and thecompassion they have for Jason.
Schilling admitted that being present at theLake-Lehman baseball field was difficult for himand his family but couldnt say enough about hissons baseball teammates.
They all gathered around us and patted us onthe back, he remembered. It was very moving,very memorable.
The reality of it is that he is no longer withus, Schilling continued, fighting back tears.But these kids have made it their cause to keephim with them and they have brought some sun-shine into our lives.
Schilling also reported that team memberssold stickers with his sons inititals on them toplayers who wanted to wear them on their bat-tinghelmets. Themore than $100raised was do-nated to the St. Vincent de Paul Soup Kitchen,an organization near and dear to Jason Schil-lings heart.

If the red sliding door to theauction barn behind the BackMountain Library was open,more than likely Ernie Ash-bridge was in there - movingfurniture, dusting and care-fully arranging the over 600antiques the library planned tosell in July.
Ashbridge would waveguestsin, gentlyand jovially in-
viting them to look around and
ogle at the treasures he foundduring the year. All were wel-comed, strangers and friends.Just be careful not to bumpinto anything, he would say.
This will be the first time inmore than 57 years Ashbridge
will miss the event to which hedevoted so much of his life.
Ashbridge died Tuesday,April 12 at the age of 82.
Ashbridge was passionateabout helping the library makeas much money as possiblefrom the sale of the antiques.
Though a registered profes-sional auctioneer since 1978,he cared little for the limelighton stage, preferring to workbehind the scenes, gatheringthings as he called it.
He would sometimes bidon an item himself if he didntthink the auctioneers were get-
ting a high enough price. Heknew the value of the antiqueshe had bought and would
wince when the price was toolow.
Ashbridge served on theboard of directors of the BackMountain Memorial Libraryand several times as its presi-dent since the early 1980s.
Ernie was a person thatmade everything run smooth-ly, said Martha Butler, direc-tor of the Back Mountain Me-morial Library. He took careof all the details but was notafraid of big decisions either CHARLOTTE BARTIZEK/ FOR THE DALLAs pOsT

and was interested in and en-couraging to the library staff.
Ashbridge and his wife, Betty,of Shavertown,became involvedin volunteering at the auctionin 1959 when Betty was theantiques chairman. Ernie tookover the position and volun-teered forthe next 50 yearsuntil2009 when he stepped down forhealth reasons.
The pair was inseparable - Er-nie moving the heavy furniture
while Betty cleaned and cata-logued it all. They ran an estatesale business together, suggest-ing to families to donate left-overs from a sale to the auction.
In addition to his wife, Ernieleaves behind a son, Ernie III,daughter Robyn Carson andthree grandchildren, ErnestAnew Ashbridge, A.J. Carsonand Amanda Carson.
During the 2009 library auc-tion, Sue Hand, an area artistand yearly contributor to theauction, painted a tribute toAshbridge. The painting wasbought by a group of about 40individuals from the commu-nity, some contributing as muchas $1,000, netting thousandsof dollars for the library. Thepicture was then given to Ash-bridge as a token of his 50 yearsof service to the auction.
Ashbridges largesse and com-forting spirit extended to thegreater Back Mountain com-munity, as well. The retired Ha-nover Bank executive served onthe Dallas School Board for 32
years, 15 years as its president,and represented Dallas on the
West Side Vo-Tech board.He was the man behind the
scenes of so many successfulBack Mountain community en-deavors that today make sucha difference in our community.
We rode on his expertise, saidState Rep. Karen Boback, who
served on the library board ofdirectors with Ashbridge
I cant look at a piece of glasswithoutthinking what he taughtme about antiques, she added.
Im missing a true friendhere today, said Joe Stager,
who co-chaired the auction withAshbridge in 2000. He gave his
whole life to this community,had good ideas, would listenand respected your position, as
well.Steve Traver, an area auc-
tioneer, credits Ashbridge withhelping him in his career. Er-nie helped me grow, gain myconfidence back and got me
into some high-end estate sales.He was my buddy and got me
involved in volunteering at thelibrary auction.In 2009, the last year he was
antiques chairman, Ashbridgewas quoted in an article in TheDallas Post. Even if Im not achairman next year, Ill alwaysbe here helping them. Ill nevergo away. They cant get rid ofme, he chuckled. I do enjoyauctions.
Friends are invited to callfrom 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, April19 at the Disque Funeral Home,672 Memorial Highway, Dallas.Funeral services will be private.

Sports
The development of lacrosse as ahigh school sport at Dallas, inparticular, and the Wyoming Valley,
in general, continues.
When Dallas teams swept theNorth Pocono boys and Pittston
Area girls on April 4, it marked the
programs debut at on-campus fields.
The teams play on a new field adja-
cent to the high school.
This is a big season for the sports growththroughout the area, as well.
Dallas athletic director Nancy Roberts is thepresident of the Wyoming Valley ConferenceLacrosse League, which is in its first season.And, for the first time, District 2s champions
will proceed directly into the Pennsylvania In-terscholastic Athletic Association tournament
rather than having to try to play their way inthrough a subregional game with District 4teams.
Lake-Lehman, Delaware Valley and Crest-wood join Dallas in both the boys and girlsleagues. Tunkhannock, North Pocono andScranton Prep also have boys teams whilePittston Area, Coughlin and Wyoming Semi-nary have girls teams.
The sport is clearly thriving at Dallas.The Mountaineers have 37 boys and 27 girls
on their teams, allowing for junior varsitygames when facing other programs with simi-lar numbers. Dallas has one of two unbeatengirls teams, joining Wyoming Seminary, whilethe boys are off to a 2-1 start in league play.
Dallas High School lacrosse traces its rootsback to the Back Mountain Bandits club team,
which evolved into a Dallas-only club teamas more high schools became involved in thesport. The school district took over responsi-
bility, making it an official PIAA-sanctionedteam with full compliance to eligibility, aca-demic and physical requirements. The lateststep is bringing the team onto campus.
We were interested in it, but we didnt havethe space until the new high school was built,saidRoberts, whocredits a strong parents clubfor getting the program moving before theschool was involved. Now, we have the extrafield.
Its something we agreed to progress with
each year. We pay for some things, but not allthings. There are still some things the boosterclub has to do.
Boys coach Rich Cohen has been involvedsince the beginning with the Back MountainBandits starting U-19 and U-15 club teams.
Cohen said his team is led by three play-
ers who received recognition on the CentralSusquehanna League all-stars last year whenDallas played in that league.
George Pfeiffer was a two-time, first-teamgoalie. Ray Schultz, a defender, and CaseyMcAndrew, a midfielder, each received honor-able mention.
They helped Dallas roll over North Pocono,15-1, in the home debut.
The girls, coached by Mary Beth Zardus,have defeated both Crestwood and PittstonArea.
The girls team, which beat Pittston Area,14-5 in the home opener, has four seniors -Madeline Mulhern, Cara Pricher, Deidre De-Luca and Evonna Ackourey - who received all-star recognition in their previous league.
With dozens of players involved in forming
two winning teams, lacrosse is establishing itsplace in the Dallas athletic program after yearsof dedicated effort by those excited about thesports growth.
They did sell me on it, Roberts said of theoriginal decision to add the sport to those thatthe school district sponsors. The kids pushedit. The boys and girls teams and the boys andgirls coaches really didnt let it drop.
With the numbers we had in it, we knew itwas the right thing to do.
