SELINSGROVE, Pa. — Hughesville High School head football coach Rick Reichner is the next guest speaker at Susquehanna University football's weekly Quarterback Club meeting, to be held on Friday, Sept. 26, at 12 p.m.

Reichner has been with the Spartans since 1997. From 1991 to 1996, he was a member of the Susquehanna coaching staff.

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. An exception will be Oct. 24 this year because Susquehanna does not play on Oct. 25. Otherwise, the event will happen every Friday during the season 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 safety John Lunardi (Exton, Pa./Henderson).

Lunardi made eight tackles (three solo), returned an interception 41 yards to set up Susquehanna's first touchdown and broke up two other passes in the Crusaders' 28–16 loss at Lycoming College on Sept. 20.

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 Lunardi, who will also speak. SU's director of athletics communications Robert Healy, III will act as emcee and will give a synopsis of the past week in Crusaders athletics.
