Shikellamy's Sam Stroh Is Next Guest at
Susquehanna's QB Club Luncheon

SELINSGROVE, Pa. — Shikellamy High School head football coach Sam Stroh is the next guest speaker at Susquehanna University football's weekly Quarterback Club meeting, to be held on Friday, Oct. 31, at 12 p.m.

Stroh is in his first season with the Braves after coaching Line Mountain High School from 2001–03.

The Quarterback Club is a luncheon that takes place Fridays from 12–1 p.m. during Susquehanna University football season in the Apple Community Room of the university's James W. Garrett Sports Complex in Selinsgrove, Pa. The event happens every Friday whether the team is playing at home or away.

The weekly cost for admission and lunch is $8.50. A yearly membership to the QB Club is $40, which does not include the weekly fee for lunch. QB Club members receive season tickets in a special seating section and admission to the club's annual postseason awards banquet.

This week's Gus Weber Crusader Football Player of the Week, sponsored this year by Jeff Edmunds, attorney-at-law, and the law firm Carpenter & Carpenter, who will present $100 to the Player of the Week's favorite charity, is senior split end Jim Owen (Harrisburg, Pa./Bishop McDevitt).

Owen caught three passes for a team-high 57 yards despite Susquehanna's 35–14 loss at defending Liberty League champion Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute on Oct. 18. (SU did not play last week.) The three catches give Owen 102 for his career and move him into fifth place on Susquehanna's career receptions list. He passed Jeff Steltz '76, who made an even 100 catches during his career. In fourth place is the 121-catch total of Al Bucci '88.

Owen is donating his $100 to the Special Olympics.

The Crusader Football Player of the Week award is named in honor of the late Gustave Weber, who was Susquehanna's president from 1959 to 1977.

Susquehanna head football coach Steve Briggs and his staff will speak at the luncheon, show a highlight film and introduce Owen, who will also speak. SU's director of athletics communications Robert Healy, III will give a synopsis of the past week in Crusaders athletics.
