October 12, 2019 | Bryan Wenzel

October 12, 2019 | Billy Splain
Most teams have a victory bell. The Central Dauphin Rams aren’t most teams. They have something a little more special to their players called the “turnover bell”. And in big games this year the Rams have been abusing that bell. Several weeks ago against Harrisburg they hit the bell six times and last night in […]
