Editing Montgomery, Pennsylvania (section)

==Athletics==
Montgomery's high school [[American football|football]] team and that of its rival, the [[Muncy, Pennsylvania|Muncy]] high school team, play annually for The Shoe. The trophy was created in 1961 from an old athletic shoe found in the [[Muncy, Pennsylvania|Muncy]] High School locker room; the shoe has been bronzed and mounted on a wooden box. It was intended in 1961 that should one of the teams win the trophy five years in a row that team would keep the shoe permanently. However, when Montgomery achieved this goal in 1974, the team voted to continue the tradition. Muncy currently leads the series with 28 wins to Montgomery's 18.
