State Sen. Gene Yaw, chair of the Pennsylvania College of Technology board of directors, recently received the 2025 W. Howard Hartman Little League Friendship Award.
Established in 1988, the award honors the legacy of Hartman, a devoted supporter and generous friend of Little League. Each year, the award is presented to an individual or organization that exemplifies the same spirit of dedication and friendship toward the Little League program.
Yaw was selected not just for his advocacy for Little League athletes and Lycoming County youth, but also for his commitment to the history and preservation of the organization. Read more about the honor at LittleLeague.org.
