There was cause for celebration, and Ephrata's Nicole Wilkerson said her team would do just that.

 

But only for one night.

 

This afternoon, the Ephrata field hockey team is getting back to business.

 

 

Before the ball hit the floor, everyone in the Ephrata gym knew the match was over because the ball caromed off a Cocalico player and headed high toward the ceiling and toward the top of the bleachers.

 

 

Ephrata head football coach Scott Shelly didn't seem or talk like a coach whose team had just lost its first game of the 2013 season, a 34-7 [box score] defeat at the hands of Exeter Friday night in Ephrata. But then Shelly always sees the silver lining in his team.

 

"It's going to come," said Shelly with a big smile on his face. "One day the breaks are going to come our way and it will all come together. These kids work their butts off and I am so proud of them."
