Widely regarded as one of the top pitchers in BFHS history, Bob Garvin, stopped into the Hall to donate a rare football photo.
Garvin graduated in 1968 and was 7-0 as a starter on the baseball team. He played in the golden era of baseball at BF when the Tigers [between 1961 and 1975] won three WPIAL Championships. Garvin was the number one starter on the 1969 Jr. Legion pitching staff that included Ron Sciarro, and Hal McClain. They were probably the most talented staff ever for Legion ball.
The only other one that comes close is early 1950’s, Palka, Kirkpatrick, Manzetti, and maybe Manzetti, Milozewski, and Williams in early seventies.
My vote goes to 1969. ... See MoreSee Less

Garvin, Sciarro and McClain were arguably the best starting staff ever in the WPIAL and I'd be glad to argue anyone on that!
Milo and Manzetti were top shelf southpaws. Joe Williams was nothing but smoke!
Jumbo Suskawich was a fireballer too
Hal McClain ❤️ dad
The day “The Chief” visited a special team in their victorious locker room.
In 1975, Beaver Falls won the WPIAL Baseball Championship at Three Rivers Stadium with a 1-0 13 inning thriller. It is widely recognized as the greatest WPIAL Championship baseball game of all time.
Pictured with Mr. Rooney is Tiger centerfielder Kevin Hogue. Hogue made arguably the greatest play in school history when he fielded a hard hit line drive to center, and threw out a base runner at home to preserve a 0-0 tie in the top of the ninth inning.
Beaver Falls defeated California in the bottom of the 13th inning. Mr Rooney, who had been watching the game, came into the Tiger locker room to congratulate the Champs. He asked to meet the center fielder who made the great play. ... See MoreSee Less

Who remembers the original Reeves Stadium in Beaver Falls?
My brother Chief and I toured the place a day before reconstruction was scheduled. We knew it was in for change and wanted to preserve our memories.
I’m glad we did ... See MoreSee Less
