December 2, 1994 — Brian Balliet scores a game-high 26 points to help Jim Thorpe gain a 56-41 victory over Northern Lehigh in both team’s season opener. Balliet and Adam Herman both hit for five points in the opening quarter as the Olympians, coached by Randy Engle, race to an early 13-2 advantage. The Bulldogs stay within striking distance the rest of the way and cut the deficit to eight early in the fourth quarter, but a 16-8 Thorpe run seals the win. Jerome Scheckler contributes 11 points to the Olympian cause, while Dan Sechriest paces Nolehi with 12 points.
