District-3 Top 20: (Oct 8, 9 games 2021)
All are 6A unless marked otherwise, last week’s rank in parenthesis
1 Governor Mifflin 5A 5-0 (1)
The Governor Mifflin-Reading game was cancelled last Tuesday with covid concerns. Reading was 1-3 with consecutive losses to Academy Park (4-1) 41-6 and Owen J. Roberts (5-1) 39-6, both of District-1. Governor Mifflin had just routed Episcopal 49-26. They move on to the highly anticipated game at Exeter (4-2) in a Berks Inter-County Section-1 showdown. Both are 5A teams. With a balanced offense and real weapons throughout the lineup, Exeter could pose problems, especially with the home field. They average 43ppg with a defense allowing 14 against a quality schedule. But they lost two of their “quality” games, Central York 35-28 and Hempfield 17-14. Conversely, Governor Mifflin has all those attributes with more demonstrable wins against an even tougher slate defeating York 55-6, Wilson 42-14 (identical score as Exeter) and Harrisburg 49-13, averaging 50ppg and allowing 12. They also have Nicholas Singleton’s 1031 rush yards. Having last week off has to be an advantage this time of year. Plus they won 56-14 last year with a team that was nowhere near as versatile offensively as this year’s team. So while Exeter is a fine football team, Mifflin is head and shoulders above every other team in the district and perhaps the state.
2 Central York 5-0 (2)
You can believe South Western at 4-1 got Central York’s full focus in a York-Adams Division-1 game before the home crowd rooting for a return trip to the 6A final. Last year’s team went 10-1 before being routed by St. Joseph’s Prep in the final. This year’s Panther group reloaded as evidenced by lopsided scores showing them winning by an average score of 44-15. At the beginning of the year there was the usual talk they’d fall off having graduated a special senior class. We’ll see. South Western’s Mustang’s came up lame in this one, stunned 25-0 in the opening quarter then buried by the half down 39-0. The final score of 60-0 shows how thoroughly they were dominated with the Panther D stymying everything, allowing a mere 122 total yards of offense. Undefeated newcomer Spring Grove is next with a lot more weapons to test Central in another key York Adams-1 game.
3 Bishop McDevitt 4A 4-1 (3)
Like Central York, Bishop McDevitt had no problem getting a easy win against an overwhelmed opponent, jumping out to a 21-0 first quarter lead that ballooned to 47-0 by the half. Most of the team sat for the second half with McDevitt rolling all over Lower Dauphin (2-3) 66-7. Freshman quarterback Stone Saunders continued wowing people, throwing for 244 yards with 4 touchdowns, all in the first half. There is no question he is a special talent. Same for junior running back Marquese Williams with 143 yards on 5 carries, scoring on runs of 78, 12, and 53 yards, and a 34-yard touchdown reception, all in the first half. The Crusaders were all about big plays scoring on runs of 51, 53, 68 and 78 yards with Saunders connecting for scores of 34, 38, 51 and 66 yards. Kamil Foster had an 80-yard kickoff return. Always nice winning your division opener especially with division rival Cedar Cliff (5-1) coming in next. These two go at it like few division rivals. That the games will be intense and close is a given. Last year’s 40-28 McDevitt win was a wild one, with McDevitt outscoring the Colts 28-21 in the third quarter alone! Cedar Cliff took the two before that in 2019, 20-17 and 2018, 50-43, with McDevitt winning in 2017, 28-21 and 2016, 42-35.
4 Central Dauphin 3-1 (5)
Central Dauphin won the coin toss, opted to receive in their brash way before going on a methodical 77-yard drive with a 2-pt conversion setting the tone for a 22-0 first quarter lead. It was 28-7 by the half with the Rams cruising to a strong road win at State College 42-21. C-Net has a good video of the game for those interested. CD is still CD, running the ball, jet sweeps, handoffs supported by a surprise pass catching you off guard from duel threat Max Mosey, and sure handed receivers who had little trouble getting behind the defense. The O-Line is looking real good as they evolve into a typical CD team. Nothing spectacular; versatile running backs, sure handed receivers, a strong line and big physical defense. Boys being boys, State and CD almost got into it in the pregame. The 22-0 first quarter score put an end to that with Mosey getting three first quarter touchdowns, throwing for two, then punching one in from a yard out. He finished with 5 touchdowns. Next week presents another challenge in Carlisle (4-2) who shrugged off consecutive losses to Cumberland Valley and Harrisburg to defeat Chambersburg last week 34-7.
5 Central Dauphin East 5-1 (6)
The more these guys keep winning the harder it is to find a weakness. They’ve survived the early loss to injury of quarterback Tony Powell, now back, with junior quarterback Terrence Jackson-Copney stepping in to play like a veteran, throwing for 518 yards and four touchdowns. Their line play is a pleasant surprise knowing last year’s team went 0-6 with an offense averaging 5ppg! This year’s is at 25ppg. Except for PSU commit Mehki Flowers, the receiving corps is as underrated as the O-Line with Tymere Thornton (6-5, 215) and running back Marcel McDaniels who is a sure handed receiver. He is also perhaps the conference surprise at running back with 730 yards. With a defense allowing 85 total points against a schedule that includes Manheim Township, Warwick, Cedar Cliff, State College and Cumberland Valley, they are well tested. Last week saw them shutdown Cumberland Valley (3-3) 17-10, holding them to 182 total yards, 54 rushing, while they got 181 rushing behind McDaniel’s 108 plus 39 in receptions. One of the top games in central Pennsylvania occurs this week when East High and Harrisburg play. This will be the toughest opponent either one faced except Harrisburg who lost to Governor Mifflin 49-13. Both played Manheim Township with East High losing on a 27-yard field goal with 1:40 left in the game and Harrisburg defeating Township 20-17 in overtime, both games at Township. Toss it up!
6 Harrisburg 5-1 (7)
Harrisburg went to the locker room with a slim 7-0 lead at Altoona, in part due to a goal line stand that held the Mountain Lions at the 1-yard line as time expired. That had to deflate Altoona but seemed to awaken the Cougars who came out with a purpose, scoring 18 third quarter points and just having too much of everything for Altoona to keep track of. Junior quarterback Zakii Lewis (6-0, 185) making his third start in place of freshman Shawn Lee (5-11, 155) tore Toona up, completing 16 of 19 passes (!) for 180 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 40 yards on 5 carries for another score. Many of his passes went to Justin Cook who snagged 7 for 94 yards. Kyle Williams continues to impress as one of the top players in central PA, rushing for 76 yards on 6 attempts and catching 7 passes for 62 yards, bringing his season totals to 476 rushing, 418 passing. Fullback Mahkai Hopkins had 60 yards on 12 carries as Altoona focused on him. The D was outstanding, getting their first shutout of the year, holding Altoona to 182 yards. Division action continues Saturday when they host bitter rival CD East.
7 York (William Penn) 4-1 (8)
York got out to an early 14-0 lead at Dallastown only to see the Wildcats come back to knot the score with 1:25 left in the half. That’s when York’s Qb Sam Stoner found Ajani Cheshire for a 17-yard score in the back of the end zone, getting it just over the outstretched arm of a defender. A 2-pt conversion followed giving them a lead they never relinquished, going on to win 36-20. This was one of those games that’s tighter than the score with Dallastown completing 13 of 19 passes for 233 yards and rushing for 130 yards. While they have some great players, they don’t have Jaheim White who was the difference, rushing for 262 yards with 4 touchdowns. He’s finally getting looks plus a sideline invitationt from Coach Franklin to see Penn State beat Indiana last Saturday. What a thrill! His workout buddy from Dallastown Kenny White, joined him in the visit. That was a monster win for the Bearcats beating Dtown on the road to stay locked in a three way tie atop the York-Adams-1 with Central York (5-0, 2-0) and Spring Grove (5-0, 2-0). Division action continues with disappointing Red Lion (1-4) up next, coming to York.
8 Manheim Township 4-2 (9)
Manheim Township is looking good for the stretch run winning their last three games with a maturing young team that’s a few points away from 6-0, losing at Dallastown 41-38 and Harrisburg 20-17 in overtime. It all came together last week against Cedar Crest with sophomore quarterback Hayden Johnson completing 19 of 25 passes (76%) for 188 yards and 2 touchdowns. Good luck keeping up with their deep receiver corps that showed seven making receptions. Nick Good, another sophomore, rushed for 102 yards with a score with Isaiah Jones adding 68 yards and 2 scores. 413 total yards later it was all over with a comfortable 42-7 win, holding the Falcons to 188 yards. Penn Manor (4-2) is next. It looks like they may have peaked at Warwick three weeks ago in a 30-28, last second upset. Since then they eked out a 21-17 win at Solanco and were throttled at Wilson 40-6 last week.
9 Wyomissing 3A 6-0 (11)
Wyomissing brought Southern Columbia’s 65 game winning streak to a close, dismantling them on their home field 41-20. What’s strange about the game is it was rarely close. Amory Thompson started the scoring with a 41 yard Td run two minutes into the game. SC then tied it up when fullback Wes Barnes scored from 24 yards out. But the momentum shifted when Amory Thompson again scored on a 92-yard kickoff return following Barnes score. It got as bad as 24-6 in the second quarter before Southern’s Gavin Garcia returned a kickoff 82 yards, cutting the deficit to 24-14 on a 2-pt conversion. Six minutes later, Wyo’s Drew Eisenhower returned a fumble 82 yards opening the lead to 31-14 at the half. Wow, no one saw this coming! At that point, SC seemed out of the game emotionally. It didn’t help that quarterback Liam Klebon missed the game with an injury. Wyomissing pounded the ball all night, led by Charles McIntyre with 97 yards on 4 carries, Drew Eisenhower with 88 on 15 attempts and Thomas Grabowski at 55 yards on 15 carries. The team had 284 yards rushing to SC’s 166. While Wyomissing doesn’t take these wins for granted, they have carved out their own space in the Pennsylvania landscape with a state title in 2012 (16-0) and the silver medal last year. From their last title in 2012 through last week’s win in Catawissa, they’ve won 101 of 121 games. And with convincing wins against high end programs Pottsville (4A, 5-1) 42-14 and now Southern Columbia (2A 5-1), they appear ready for another run at the gold. Twin Valley (4-2, 2-1) is next looking to remain undefeated at home (3-0) against Wyo in their third straight road game.
10 Steelton Highspire 1A 5-0 (10)
Steelton Highspire got past rival Middletown in a lack luster game that was scoreless at the half. Daivin Pryor broke the stalemate with a third quarter 8 yard score followed by touchdowns from Alex Erby to Rell Ceasar and Jaieon Perry of 55 and 41 yards. A 5-yard strike to Tyrone Moore completed the scoring with Steel High winning 26-0. Mid Penn-Capital Division action continues Friday for the first of three consecutive road games taking them to Trinity (2A, 3-2), Camp Hill (1A, 3-3) and surprising Big Spring (4A 5-1) before the regular season closer at home against Boiling Springs (3A 5-1). They are currently on a 15 game winning streak with last year’s 10-0 campaign that secured their third PIAA state title in the last 14 years. The big question this season is how they’ll respond to a challenge knowing they had real grad losses and a transfer last year. While many will say Mehki Flowers transfer to CD East taking 1006 pass yards with him was the greatest loss, it may well prove to be the graduation of running back Odell Green’s 1549 yards. He could always be counted on to move the chains. Always. They don’t have that this year. Damien Hammonds’s 752 yards is also a loss at wide out. So the bottom line is out on the Rollers. The team that just jumped them this week in the rankings, Wyomissing, has clearly survived their grad losses with the big win at Southern Columbia last Friday.
11 Warwick 5A 3-3 (17)
Warwick put themselves in great shape to win the LL-2 again defeating Manheim Central in Manheim for the fourth straight year! The score of 35-28 shows a tight, competitive game. But when the stats stack up on your side 522 total yards to 253..!..and the turnovers and penalties are essentially non-existent, you know the win wasn’t a fluke. Key to their win was junior Jack Reed completing 31 of 40 passes for 355 yards and a touchdown. Christian Royer also had a big night rushing for 166 yards with wide out Cooper Eckert catching 14 passes for 124 yards and a score. Second half adjustments held Manheim scoreless. A look at Warwick’s schedule shows they could run out with consecutive home games against Elizabethtown (3-3) and Solanco (2-4) before finishing at Cocalico and Conestoga Valley, both 3-3.
12 Manheim Central 5A 5-1 (4)
Manheim Central plummeted in the rankings after losing at home to Warwick 35-28. Quarterback Judd Novak came in throwing at 60%, and was held to low numbers completing 8 of 15 for 77 yards. But he’s always exciting running the football, gaining 72 yards on 13 carries. Warwick denied him the deep ball, holding top receiver Owen Sensenig to 45 yards on 3 receptions. Justin Hefferman was as ever with 146 yards and a touchdown on 19 attempts. And hats off to Warwick’s D holding the Barons to 14 first downs and 253 total yards. Like Warwick, Manheim will probably run out, defeating Solanco and Conestoga Valley on the road, then finishing with Elizabethtown and Cocalico at home. It may be on the road vs Solanco but look for extreme intensity from MC coming off a loss knowing Solanco upset them last year 42-35.
13 Hempfield 4-2 (12)
Hempfield has it together now winning their last three games including wins over Exeter and at Warwick. Quarterback Cam Harbaugh had a big night in last week’s 41-6 win against J.P. McCaskey, completing 10 of 12 passes for 190 yards with touchdowns of 16, 72 and 34 yards. Wide receiver Thomas Minnich led all receivers with 112 yards and 2 scores on 5 receptions followed by Andy Garcia’s 62 yards and Adam Acker’s 42 yards. The aerial game was well distributed involving seven receivers. Stephen Katch and Evan Smith each had 72 yards rushing. JPM couldn’t get anything going with 121 total yards of offense. With parity taking its toll this year, all the races are WIDE open. The Lancaster Lebanon Section-1 (LL-1) shows Hempfield deadlocked with Wilson and Manheim Township at 1-0. And, they have yet to play each other meaning the LL won’t be decided until the end of the season.
14 Exeter Township 5A 4-2 (13)
Like many others in the Top 20 this time of year, Exeter’s offense is rounding into shape, putting big numbers on the scoreboard the last two weeks. Last week saw them walk all over poor Muhlenberg (0-6) 77-7. Don’t (didn’t) you hate it when the other guys return the opening kickoff for a touchdown. Bummer. This one was returned 92 yards and the rout was on. Compounding things, the Muhlies coughed up 2 fumbles and threw 3 interceptions. When it rains it pours. Muhlenberg must be soaked at this point being outscored 251 to 37! Flip that for Exeter who has been an offensive juggernaut the last two weeks, blanking West York 42-0 before Muhlenberg. Up next is the game that will determine the Berks Inter-County Conference-Section-1 championship when Governor Mifflin rolls into town Friday night. Exeter is one of the few teams in the district that has the weapons to go at the Mustangs. Some thought Harrisburg did. But no one has a back like Nick Singleton. Exeter has talented backs and receivers but not the versatility Mifflin has to score points off the Mid-Line Option/Passing offense.
15 Berks Catholic 4A 4-2 (14)
Berks Catholic bounced back the way you knew they would after the 37-7 loss to Malvern Prep by defeating Daniel Boone High 40-7. BC’s top back and kick returner Christian Cacchione got things rolling returning the opening kickoff 91 yards for the score. Quarterback Mitchel Gatz completed 8 of 9 passes for 180 and 3 touchdowns. Luke Hughes, their battering ram of a fullback at 6-3, 225 had his way getting 74 yards and a touchdown. Boone (3-3) came in hot, winning their last three by an average score of 34-14. But they caught the Saints at a bad time, off a loss and in a race for the Berks-2 with Exeter and Mifflin. Reading (1-3) is next where BC can again name the score.
16 Cedar Cliff 5A 5-1 (15)
Cedar Cliff got more than they bargained for last week against winless Hershey who came in looking more like a 6-0 team than the reverse. They had a 7-0 lead after the first quarter and were still in it at 7-7 in the fourth quarter before Cedar Cliff roused themselves with a 21 point fourth quarter to pull it out. But props to the Bears who played like it for much of the game before falling to the talented Colts. Running back Jontae Morris, who is back from a season ending injury in 2020 has been lights out, showing no side effects or hesitancy with some booming runs on the way to 887 yards through the Hershey game plus 13 touchdowns. He had 154 here. The new quarterback, junior Ethan Dorrell has thrown for 838 yards at 64% with 9 touchdowns and 1 interception. Trenten Smith may just be one of the conference’s best receivers with 34 catches for 496 yards. Now that the preliminaries are behind them it’s time to pay a visit across the river to Bishop McDevitt. As always, this is “the” Mid Penn-Keystone Division game for all the marbles.
17 Wilson 3-3 (18)
When you have a back like Jadyn Jones, there’s not much reason to throw the football. That was the case last Friday when he returned from injury. Who knows the full impact of his missing the Manheim Central game two weeks ago, a 24-21 loss. But he didn’t miss Penn Manor, rushing for 158 yards on 12 carries resulting in touchdowns of 2, 1 and 68 yards. Brother Cam added a 70-yard punt return for another six. Qb Brad Hoffman threw a few to keep the Comets honest completing 4 of 5 for 82 yards, with touchdowns of 18 and 9 yards to T.J. Flite. Penn Manor came in 4-1 including the 30-28 upset at Warwick. This obviously got Wilson’s attention. Catching Wilson after a loss didn’t help as the fired up Bulldogs rolled to an easy 40-6 win. J.P. McCaskey (2-4) is next followed by Cedar Crest (2-3) before getting down to business against Hempfield on the road then the closer at home against rival Manheim Township.
18 Cumberland Valley 3-3 (19)
Cumberland Valley rose in the ranking despite losing with the narrow 17-10 loss at Central Dauphin East. They really couldn’t do much against the East High D, but kept it close, holding the Panthers to 309 total yards. Quarterback Isaac Sines completed 12 of 25 passes for 130 yards against pressure most of the night, connecting with Griffin Huffman for a 11-yard score. Caden Pines led all receivers with 5 receptions for 61 yards. Knowing what Josh Oswalt did at Central York, you knew he’d bring CV around over time. The time is evidently now seeing where they are now relative to the embarrassing 35-7 season opening loss at Manheim Central. If this level of progress continues they’ll be in all their remaining games. This includes upcoming home games against State College Friday then Harrisburg before closing out on the road against Chambersburg and Central Dauphin.
19 Dallastown 6A 4-2 (16)
The Wildcats came up short hosting York High in a York-Adams division game, losing to the Bearcats 36-20. See the York write up above. Because Coach Ron Miller missed the game due to illness, defensive coordinator Paul Marick took his place. They were led by duel quarterbacks Dylan Lease who completed 8 of 11 for 192 yards and Owen Strouse who connected on 5 of 8 for 42 yards. Coleton Mahorney (91/473 seasonal) and Caleb Fox had 66 and 63 yards rushing respectively. But the star of the show was receiver Kenny Johnson (Temple, PSU) who caught 8 passes for 192 yards, leading the team in tackles with 9. To date he has 25 receptions for 477 yards. They're at 1-5 Dover Friday.
20 Spring Grove 5A 5-0 (20)
Spring Grove stayed undefeated with another easy win, this time defeating Dover 34-14. The week before saw them trounce Northeastern 60-14, then Northern 39-7 and West York 38-6 the weeks before that. The only competitive game they’ve had was the opener at Waynesboro (4-2), edging the Indians 25-20. With the preseason over and York-Adams-1 into week-3, things get a lot tougher playing Central York and Dallastown back to back before ending against Red Lion and South Western. The Central York game was a disaster last year losing 47-0. Penn State commit Beau Pribula threw for 267 yards and three touchdowns. They also dominated the running game with four additional rushing touchdowns ending the night with 495 yards of offense. It’s never good when you’re someone’s homecoming opponent. But they have some weapons, primarily Zyree Brooks with 740 rush yards and brother Tyree with 242.
Honorable Mention
All are 6A unless marked otherwise, last week’s rank in parenthesis
Mid Penn
Carlisle 4-2 (HM)
Carlisle’s defense (14ppg) has been a difference maker this year with two shutouts and last week’s 34-7 win against Chambersburg, holding the Trojans to 130 total yards. The way Central Dauphin looked last week in State College, they’ll need to bring that game with at least three scores to hang with the Rams at Landis.
Shippensburg 5A 6-0 (HM)
Shippensburg picked up right where they left off last year (4-3) winning their first 6 games this year after winning their last 4 games a year ago. And with three of their last four at home who knows, maybe they run out and get a very high seed. Northern (4-1) is next in Shippensburg.
Boiling Springs 3A 5-1 (HM)
Boiling Springs crushed everyone by a combined score of 256 to 31 except for Mechanicsburg (5A, 3-3) where they lost on a covid/cancellation related short week, 39-34. They’re at Big Spring (5-1, 1-0) Friday in a key Mid Penn-Capital game looking to break a tie with them and Steel High (5-0, 1-0) for first.
Lancaster-Lebanon
Cocalico 4A 3-3 (HM)
It’s exciting football watching Cocalico with a porous defense allowing 32ppg and Anthony Bourassa tearing up the LL with 1020 yards rushing. Never a dull moment. The opening schedule may have taken a toll with the home win against Conrad Weiser 36-21 followed by a gut wrenching 33-27 loss at Cedar Cliff. Then came the 56-0 loss to Governor Mifflin. CC and Mifflin are big, physical teams. Going 2-1 since then with Conestoga Valley and Elizabethtown next says 5-3 is reachable before finishing with Warwick and Manheim Central.
Lampeter Strasburg 4A 5-1 (HM)
Since losing at Warwick 45-22, LS reeled off 5 straight by an average score of 32 to 4. Fellow LL-3 Donegal (see below) is next in a key Section-3 game. LS is peeking now, with new quarterback Berkeley Wagner running the option near perfection, rushing for 460 yards and throwing for 814. Donegal plays good defense but will have trouble containing Wagner.
Donegal 4A 4-1 (NR)
Donegal has their work cut out for them traveling to Lampeter to play the Pioneers in a Section-3 game. LS beat them 42-0 last year with a 9-1 district championship team that lost to Jersey Shore 39-35 in the 4A semifinals. They’re not at that level but Qb Wagner has them playing at a higher than expected level. Across the field, Donegal has their option purring at 269 yards rushing a game but haven’t played a teams of LS’s caliber on the road.
York-Adams
Kennard Dale 4A 5-1 (HM)
Not a team most of us are familiar with but here they are winning their last 5 games having defeated a solid 4-2 New Oxford team last week 17-7. They have a strong back in Steven Lukes with 673 yards on 41 carries. That’s an eye popping 16.4 yards per carry. Micah Partee is also getting it down with 240 yards. They head to the battlefield Friday at Gettysburg (4-2, 3-0) for a stiff test for the top spot in the York-Adams-2 where KD is 2-0.
NOTE: Kennard Dale for the curious is way south of York right on the Maryland line, maybe 40-45 miles north of Baltimore. Roll out of bed you’re in Maryland.
Gettysburg 5A 4-2 (NR)
Hesitated putting Gburg in being my alma mater but they’re back to crushing people with smash mouth offense and suffocating defense after a 1-2 start that included a 3 overtime 55-49 loss to rival Waynesboro. The goal this year is to win the York-Adams-2 in their final year of participation. But the BIG NEWS is they’ll rejoin the Mid Penn next year after an 8 year stint in the YA. Until then, hopefully they’ll continue crushing people behind a sturdy line of Frankie Richardson 6-4 290 headed to Coastal Carolina, Trevor Gallagher 6-3 260, Connor Kayhoe 6-0 255, Grant DeFoe 6-1 265 and Dunn Kessel 6-3 270. Corn fed! Kennard Dale is up next in a game that will likely decide the YA-2. The KD Rams will test them.
Berks Inter County
Conrad Weiser 4A 4-2 (HM)
Give these guys a defense and look out! Conner Klitsch (6-3, 190, sr) is one of the most exciting quarterbacks in the state, throwing for 1357 yards with a 11/5 ratio at 65%, and rushing for 598 more yards and 5 touchdowns. He is a 3-year starter. Aanjay Feliciano is big time too, snagging 31 passes for 681 yards. But the D is porous at 29ppg with road losses at Cocalico in the opener, 36-21 and two weeks ago at Twin Valley (4-2), 37-34 in double overtime. They’re at 5-1 Hamburg Friday to straighten out the logjam of four teams in second place in the Berks-2 behind Wyommising.
Hamburg 3A 5-1 (NR)
The Hawks are something like the Weiser team they play Friday, putting up a lot of points at 34ppg and being too liberal on defense giving up 21 a game. They were routed at Wyomissing 47-7 in their only challenge of the season. But they’re veteran, returning three backs and the quarterback with some big boys up front. The next three are tough hombres playing Weiser (4-2) with Klitsch and company, Fleetwood (3-3) with their Villanova commit Qb Tanner Maddocks and Twin Valley (4-2) who’s doing something right with two overtime wins.
Dropped out
Boone 5A 3-3 (HM)
South Western 5A 4-2 (HM)
Octorara 4A 4-2 (HM)
Twin Valley 5A 4-2 (HM)
New Oxford 5A 4-2 (HM)
All are 6A unless marked otherwise, last week’s rank in parenthesis
1 Governor Mifflin 5A 5-0 (1)
The Governor Mifflin-Reading game was cancelled last Tuesday with covid concerns. Reading was 1-3 with consecutive losses to Academy Park (4-1) 41-6 and Owen J. Roberts (5-1) 39-6, both of District-1. Governor Mifflin had just routed Episcopal 49-26. They move on to the highly anticipated game at Exeter (4-2) in a Berks Inter-County Section-1 showdown. Both are 5A teams. With a balanced offense and real weapons throughout the lineup, Exeter could pose problems, especially with the home field. They average 43ppg with a defense allowing 14 against a quality schedule. But they lost two of their “quality” games, Central York 35-28 and Hempfield 17-14. Conversely, Governor Mifflin has all those attributes with more demonstrable wins against an even tougher slate defeating York 55-6, Wilson 42-14 (identical score as Exeter) and Harrisburg 49-13, averaging 50ppg and allowing 12. They also have Nicholas Singleton’s 1031 rush yards. Having last week off has to be an advantage this time of year. Plus they won 56-14 last year with a team that was nowhere near as versatile offensively as this year’s team. So while Exeter is a fine football team, Mifflin is head and shoulders above every other team in the district and perhaps the state.
2 Central York 5-0 (2)
You can believe South Western at 4-1 got Central York’s full focus in a York-Adams Division-1 game before the home crowd rooting for a return trip to the 6A final. Last year’s team went 10-1 before being routed by St. Joseph’s Prep in the final. This year’s Panther group reloaded as evidenced by lopsided scores showing them winning by an average score of 44-15. At the beginning of the year there was the usual talk they’d fall off having graduated a special senior class. We’ll see. South Western’s Mustang’s came up lame in this one, stunned 25-0 in the opening quarter then buried by the half down 39-0. The final score of 60-0 shows how thoroughly they were dominated with the Panther D stymying everything, allowing a mere 122 total yards of offense. Undefeated newcomer Spring Grove is next with a lot more weapons to test Central in another key York Adams-1 game.
3 Bishop McDevitt 4A 4-1 (3)
Like Central York, Bishop McDevitt had no problem getting a easy win against an overwhelmed opponent, jumping out to a 21-0 first quarter lead that ballooned to 47-0 by the half. Most of the team sat for the second half with McDevitt rolling all over Lower Dauphin (2-3) 66-7. Freshman quarterback Stone Saunders continued wowing people, throwing for 244 yards with 4 touchdowns, all in the first half. There is no question he is a special talent. Same for junior running back Marquese Williams with 143 yards on 5 carries, scoring on runs of 78, 12, and 53 yards, and a 34-yard touchdown reception, all in the first half. The Crusaders were all about big plays scoring on runs of 51, 53, 68 and 78 yards with Saunders connecting for scores of 34, 38, 51 and 66 yards. Kamil Foster had an 80-yard kickoff return. Always nice winning your division opener especially with division rival Cedar Cliff (5-1) coming in next. These two go at it like few division rivals. That the games will be intense and close is a given. Last year’s 40-28 McDevitt win was a wild one, with McDevitt outscoring the Colts 28-21 in the third quarter alone! Cedar Cliff took the two before that in 2019, 20-17 and 2018, 50-43, with McDevitt winning in 2017, 28-21 and 2016, 42-35.
4 Central Dauphin 3-1 (5)
Central Dauphin won the coin toss, opted to receive in their brash way before going on a methodical 77-yard drive with a 2-pt conversion setting the tone for a 22-0 first quarter lead. It was 28-7 by the half with the Rams cruising to a strong road win at State College 42-21. C-Net has a good video of the game for those interested. CD is still CD, running the ball, jet sweeps, handoffs supported by a surprise pass catching you off guard from duel threat Max Mosey, and sure handed receivers who had little trouble getting behind the defense. The O-Line is looking real good as they evolve into a typical CD team. Nothing spectacular; versatile running backs, sure handed receivers, a strong line and big physical defense. Boys being boys, State and CD almost got into it in the pregame. The 22-0 first quarter score put an end to that with Mosey getting three first quarter touchdowns, throwing for two, then punching one in from a yard out. He finished with 5 touchdowns. Next week presents another challenge in Carlisle (4-2) who shrugged off consecutive losses to Cumberland Valley and Harrisburg to defeat Chambersburg last week 34-7.
5 Central Dauphin East 5-1 (6)
The more these guys keep winning the harder it is to find a weakness. They’ve survived the early loss to injury of quarterback Tony Powell, now back, with junior quarterback Terrence Jackson-Copney stepping in to play like a veteran, throwing for 518 yards and four touchdowns. Their line play is a pleasant surprise knowing last year’s team went 0-6 with an offense averaging 5ppg! This year’s is at 25ppg. Except for PSU commit Mehki Flowers, the receiving corps is as underrated as the O-Line with Tymere Thornton (6-5, 215) and running back Marcel McDaniels who is a sure handed receiver. He is also perhaps the conference surprise at running back with 730 yards. With a defense allowing 85 total points against a schedule that includes Manheim Township, Warwick, Cedar Cliff, State College and Cumberland Valley, they are well tested. Last week saw them shutdown Cumberland Valley (3-3) 17-10, holding them to 182 total yards, 54 rushing, while they got 181 rushing behind McDaniel’s 108 plus 39 in receptions. One of the top games in central Pennsylvania occurs this week when East High and Harrisburg play. This will be the toughest opponent either one faced except Harrisburg who lost to Governor Mifflin 49-13. Both played Manheim Township with East High losing on a 27-yard field goal with 1:40 left in the game and Harrisburg defeating Township 20-17 in overtime, both games at Township. Toss it up!
6 Harrisburg 5-1 (7)
Harrisburg went to the locker room with a slim 7-0 lead at Altoona, in part due to a goal line stand that held the Mountain Lions at the 1-yard line as time expired. That had to deflate Altoona but seemed to awaken the Cougars who came out with a purpose, scoring 18 third quarter points and just having too much of everything for Altoona to keep track of. Junior quarterback Zakii Lewis (6-0, 185) making his third start in place of freshman Shawn Lee (5-11, 155) tore Toona up, completing 16 of 19 passes (!) for 180 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 40 yards on 5 carries for another score. Many of his passes went to Justin Cook who snagged 7 for 94 yards. Kyle Williams continues to impress as one of the top players in central PA, rushing for 76 yards on 6 attempts and catching 7 passes for 62 yards, bringing his season totals to 476 rushing, 418 passing. Fullback Mahkai Hopkins had 60 yards on 12 carries as Altoona focused on him. The D was outstanding, getting their first shutout of the year, holding Altoona to 182 yards. Division action continues Saturday when they host bitter rival CD East.
7 York (William Penn) 4-1 (8)
York got out to an early 14-0 lead at Dallastown only to see the Wildcats come back to knot the score with 1:25 left in the half. That’s when York’s Qb Sam Stoner found Ajani Cheshire for a 17-yard score in the back of the end zone, getting it just over the outstretched arm of a defender. A 2-pt conversion followed giving them a lead they never relinquished, going on to win 36-20. This was one of those games that’s tighter than the score with Dallastown completing 13 of 19 passes for 233 yards and rushing for 130 yards. While they have some great players, they don’t have Jaheim White who was the difference, rushing for 262 yards with 4 touchdowns. He’s finally getting looks plus a sideline invitationt from Coach Franklin to see Penn State beat Indiana last Saturday. What a thrill! His workout buddy from Dallastown Kenny White, joined him in the visit. That was a monster win for the Bearcats beating Dtown on the road to stay locked in a three way tie atop the York-Adams-1 with Central York (5-0, 2-0) and Spring Grove (5-0, 2-0). Division action continues with disappointing Red Lion (1-4) up next, coming to York.
8 Manheim Township 4-2 (9)
Manheim Township is looking good for the stretch run winning their last three games with a maturing young team that’s a few points away from 6-0, losing at Dallastown 41-38 and Harrisburg 20-17 in overtime. It all came together last week against Cedar Crest with sophomore quarterback Hayden Johnson completing 19 of 25 passes (76%) for 188 yards and 2 touchdowns. Good luck keeping up with their deep receiver corps that showed seven making receptions. Nick Good, another sophomore, rushed for 102 yards with a score with Isaiah Jones adding 68 yards and 2 scores. 413 total yards later it was all over with a comfortable 42-7 win, holding the Falcons to 188 yards. Penn Manor (4-2) is next. It looks like they may have peaked at Warwick three weeks ago in a 30-28, last second upset. Since then they eked out a 21-17 win at Solanco and were throttled at Wilson 40-6 last week.
9 Wyomissing 3A 6-0 (11)
Wyomissing brought Southern Columbia’s 65 game winning streak to a close, dismantling them on their home field 41-20. What’s strange about the game is it was rarely close. Amory Thompson started the scoring with a 41 yard Td run two minutes into the game. SC then tied it up when fullback Wes Barnes scored from 24 yards out. But the momentum shifted when Amory Thompson again scored on a 92-yard kickoff return following Barnes score. It got as bad as 24-6 in the second quarter before Southern’s Gavin Garcia returned a kickoff 82 yards, cutting the deficit to 24-14 on a 2-pt conversion. Six minutes later, Wyo’s Drew Eisenhower returned a fumble 82 yards opening the lead to 31-14 at the half. Wow, no one saw this coming! At that point, SC seemed out of the game emotionally. It didn’t help that quarterback Liam Klebon missed the game with an injury. Wyomissing pounded the ball all night, led by Charles McIntyre with 97 yards on 4 carries, Drew Eisenhower with 88 on 15 attempts and Thomas Grabowski at 55 yards on 15 carries. The team had 284 yards rushing to SC’s 166. While Wyomissing doesn’t take these wins for granted, they have carved out their own space in the Pennsylvania landscape with a state title in 2012 (16-0) and the silver medal last year. From their last title in 2012 through last week’s win in Catawissa, they’ve won 101 of 121 games. And with convincing wins against high end programs Pottsville (4A, 5-1) 42-14 and now Southern Columbia (2A 5-1), they appear ready for another run at the gold. Twin Valley (4-2, 2-1) is next looking to remain undefeated at home (3-0) against Wyo in their third straight road game.
10 Steelton Highspire 1A 5-0 (10)
Steelton Highspire got past rival Middletown in a lack luster game that was scoreless at the half. Daivin Pryor broke the stalemate with a third quarter 8 yard score followed by touchdowns from Alex Erby to Rell Ceasar and Jaieon Perry of 55 and 41 yards. A 5-yard strike to Tyrone Moore completed the scoring with Steel High winning 26-0. Mid Penn-Capital Division action continues Friday for the first of three consecutive road games taking them to Trinity (2A, 3-2), Camp Hill (1A, 3-3) and surprising Big Spring (4A 5-1) before the regular season closer at home against Boiling Springs (3A 5-1). They are currently on a 15 game winning streak with last year’s 10-0 campaign that secured their third PIAA state title in the last 14 years. The big question this season is how they’ll respond to a challenge knowing they had real grad losses and a transfer last year. While many will say Mehki Flowers transfer to CD East taking 1006 pass yards with him was the greatest loss, it may well prove to be the graduation of running back Odell Green’s 1549 yards. He could always be counted on to move the chains. Always. They don’t have that this year. Damien Hammonds’s 752 yards is also a loss at wide out. So the bottom line is out on the Rollers. The team that just jumped them this week in the rankings, Wyomissing, has clearly survived their grad losses with the big win at Southern Columbia last Friday.
11 Warwick 5A 3-3 (17)
Warwick put themselves in great shape to win the LL-2 again defeating Manheim Central in Manheim for the fourth straight year! The score of 35-28 shows a tight, competitive game. But when the stats stack up on your side 522 total yards to 253..!..and the turnovers and penalties are essentially non-existent, you know the win wasn’t a fluke. Key to their win was junior Jack Reed completing 31 of 40 passes for 355 yards and a touchdown. Christian Royer also had a big night rushing for 166 yards with wide out Cooper Eckert catching 14 passes for 124 yards and a score. Second half adjustments held Manheim scoreless. A look at Warwick’s schedule shows they could run out with consecutive home games against Elizabethtown (3-3) and Solanco (2-4) before finishing at Cocalico and Conestoga Valley, both 3-3.
12 Manheim Central 5A 5-1 (4)
Manheim Central plummeted in the rankings after losing at home to Warwick 35-28. Quarterback Judd Novak came in throwing at 60%, and was held to low numbers completing 8 of 15 for 77 yards. But he’s always exciting running the football, gaining 72 yards on 13 carries. Warwick denied him the deep ball, holding top receiver Owen Sensenig to 45 yards on 3 receptions. Justin Hefferman was as ever with 146 yards and a touchdown on 19 attempts. And hats off to Warwick’s D holding the Barons to 14 first downs and 253 total yards. Like Warwick, Manheim will probably run out, defeating Solanco and Conestoga Valley on the road, then finishing with Elizabethtown and Cocalico at home. It may be on the road vs Solanco but look for extreme intensity from MC coming off a loss knowing Solanco upset them last year 42-35.
13 Hempfield 4-2 (12)
Hempfield has it together now winning their last three games including wins over Exeter and at Warwick. Quarterback Cam Harbaugh had a big night in last week’s 41-6 win against J.P. McCaskey, completing 10 of 12 passes for 190 yards with touchdowns of 16, 72 and 34 yards. Wide receiver Thomas Minnich led all receivers with 112 yards and 2 scores on 5 receptions followed by Andy Garcia’s 62 yards and Adam Acker’s 42 yards. The aerial game was well distributed involving seven receivers. Stephen Katch and Evan Smith each had 72 yards rushing. JPM couldn’t get anything going with 121 total yards of offense. With parity taking its toll this year, all the races are WIDE open. The Lancaster Lebanon Section-1 (LL-1) shows Hempfield deadlocked with Wilson and Manheim Township at 1-0. And, they have yet to play each other meaning the LL won’t be decided until the end of the season.
14 Exeter Township 5A 4-2 (13)
Like many others in the Top 20 this time of year, Exeter’s offense is rounding into shape, putting big numbers on the scoreboard the last two weeks. Last week saw them walk all over poor Muhlenberg (0-6) 77-7. Don’t (didn’t) you hate it when the other guys return the opening kickoff for a touchdown. Bummer. This one was returned 92 yards and the rout was on. Compounding things, the Muhlies coughed up 2 fumbles and threw 3 interceptions. When it rains it pours. Muhlenberg must be soaked at this point being outscored 251 to 37! Flip that for Exeter who has been an offensive juggernaut the last two weeks, blanking West York 42-0 before Muhlenberg. Up next is the game that will determine the Berks Inter-County Conference-Section-1 championship when Governor Mifflin rolls into town Friday night. Exeter is one of the few teams in the district that has the weapons to go at the Mustangs. Some thought Harrisburg did. But no one has a back like Nick Singleton. Exeter has talented backs and receivers but not the versatility Mifflin has to score points off the Mid-Line Option/Passing offense.
15 Berks Catholic 4A 4-2 (14)
Berks Catholic bounced back the way you knew they would after the 37-7 loss to Malvern Prep by defeating Daniel Boone High 40-7. BC’s top back and kick returner Christian Cacchione got things rolling returning the opening kickoff 91 yards for the score. Quarterback Mitchel Gatz completed 8 of 9 passes for 180 and 3 touchdowns. Luke Hughes, their battering ram of a fullback at 6-3, 225 had his way getting 74 yards and a touchdown. Boone (3-3) came in hot, winning their last three by an average score of 34-14. But they caught the Saints at a bad time, off a loss and in a race for the Berks-2 with Exeter and Mifflin. Reading (1-3) is next where BC can again name the score.
16 Cedar Cliff 5A 5-1 (15)
Cedar Cliff got more than they bargained for last week against winless Hershey who came in looking more like a 6-0 team than the reverse. They had a 7-0 lead after the first quarter and were still in it at 7-7 in the fourth quarter before Cedar Cliff roused themselves with a 21 point fourth quarter to pull it out. But props to the Bears who played like it for much of the game before falling to the talented Colts. Running back Jontae Morris, who is back from a season ending injury in 2020 has been lights out, showing no side effects or hesitancy with some booming runs on the way to 887 yards through the Hershey game plus 13 touchdowns. He had 154 here. The new quarterback, junior Ethan Dorrell has thrown for 838 yards at 64% with 9 touchdowns and 1 interception. Trenten Smith may just be one of the conference’s best receivers with 34 catches for 496 yards. Now that the preliminaries are behind them it’s time to pay a visit across the river to Bishop McDevitt. As always, this is “the” Mid Penn-Keystone Division game for all the marbles.
17 Wilson 3-3 (18)
When you have a back like Jadyn Jones, there’s not much reason to throw the football. That was the case last Friday when he returned from injury. Who knows the full impact of his missing the Manheim Central game two weeks ago, a 24-21 loss. But he didn’t miss Penn Manor, rushing for 158 yards on 12 carries resulting in touchdowns of 2, 1 and 68 yards. Brother Cam added a 70-yard punt return for another six. Qb Brad Hoffman threw a few to keep the Comets honest completing 4 of 5 for 82 yards, with touchdowns of 18 and 9 yards to T.J. Flite. Penn Manor came in 4-1 including the 30-28 upset at Warwick. This obviously got Wilson’s attention. Catching Wilson after a loss didn’t help as the fired up Bulldogs rolled to an easy 40-6 win. J.P. McCaskey (2-4) is next followed by Cedar Crest (2-3) before getting down to business against Hempfield on the road then the closer at home against rival Manheim Township.
18 Cumberland Valley 3-3 (19)
Cumberland Valley rose in the ranking despite losing with the narrow 17-10 loss at Central Dauphin East. They really couldn’t do much against the East High D, but kept it close, holding the Panthers to 309 total yards. Quarterback Isaac Sines completed 12 of 25 passes for 130 yards against pressure most of the night, connecting with Griffin Huffman for a 11-yard score. Caden Pines led all receivers with 5 receptions for 61 yards. Knowing what Josh Oswalt did at Central York, you knew he’d bring CV around over time. The time is evidently now seeing where they are now relative to the embarrassing 35-7 season opening loss at Manheim Central. If this level of progress continues they’ll be in all their remaining games. This includes upcoming home games against State College Friday then Harrisburg before closing out on the road against Chambersburg and Central Dauphin.
19 Dallastown 6A 4-2 (16)
The Wildcats came up short hosting York High in a York-Adams division game, losing to the Bearcats 36-20. See the York write up above. Because Coach Ron Miller missed the game due to illness, defensive coordinator Paul Marick took his place. They were led by duel quarterbacks Dylan Lease who completed 8 of 11 for 192 yards and Owen Strouse who connected on 5 of 8 for 42 yards. Coleton Mahorney (91/473 seasonal) and Caleb Fox had 66 and 63 yards rushing respectively. But the star of the show was receiver Kenny Johnson (Temple, PSU) who caught 8 passes for 192 yards, leading the team in tackles with 9. To date he has 25 receptions for 477 yards. They're at 1-5 Dover Friday.
20 Spring Grove 5A 5-0 (20)
Spring Grove stayed undefeated with another easy win, this time defeating Dover 34-14. The week before saw them trounce Northeastern 60-14, then Northern 39-7 and West York 38-6 the weeks before that. The only competitive game they’ve had was the opener at Waynesboro (4-2), edging the Indians 25-20. With the preseason over and York-Adams-1 into week-3, things get a lot tougher playing Central York and Dallastown back to back before ending against Red Lion and South Western. The Central York game was a disaster last year losing 47-0. Penn State commit Beau Pribula threw for 267 yards and three touchdowns. They also dominated the running game with four additional rushing touchdowns ending the night with 495 yards of offense. It’s never good when you’re someone’s homecoming opponent. But they have some weapons, primarily Zyree Brooks with 740 rush yards and brother Tyree with 242.
Honorable Mention
All are 6A unless marked otherwise, last week’s rank in parenthesis
Mid Penn
Carlisle 4-2 (HM)
Carlisle’s defense (14ppg) has been a difference maker this year with two shutouts and last week’s 34-7 win against Chambersburg, holding the Trojans to 130 total yards. The way Central Dauphin looked last week in State College, they’ll need to bring that game with at least three scores to hang with the Rams at Landis.
Shippensburg 5A 6-0 (HM)
Shippensburg picked up right where they left off last year (4-3) winning their first 6 games this year after winning their last 4 games a year ago. And with three of their last four at home who knows, maybe they run out and get a very high seed. Northern (4-1) is next in Shippensburg.
Boiling Springs 3A 5-1 (HM)
Boiling Springs crushed everyone by a combined score of 256 to 31 except for Mechanicsburg (5A, 3-3) where they lost on a covid/cancellation related short week, 39-34. They’re at Big Spring (5-1, 1-0) Friday in a key Mid Penn-Capital game looking to break a tie with them and Steel High (5-0, 1-0) for first.
Lancaster-Lebanon
Cocalico 4A 3-3 (HM)
It’s exciting football watching Cocalico with a porous defense allowing 32ppg and Anthony Bourassa tearing up the LL with 1020 yards rushing. Never a dull moment. The opening schedule may have taken a toll with the home win against Conrad Weiser 36-21 followed by a gut wrenching 33-27 loss at Cedar Cliff. Then came the 56-0 loss to Governor Mifflin. CC and Mifflin are big, physical teams. Going 2-1 since then with Conestoga Valley and Elizabethtown next says 5-3 is reachable before finishing with Warwick and Manheim Central.
Lampeter Strasburg 4A 5-1 (HM)
Since losing at Warwick 45-22, LS reeled off 5 straight by an average score of 32 to 4. Fellow LL-3 Donegal (see below) is next in a key Section-3 game. LS is peeking now, with new quarterback Berkeley Wagner running the option near perfection, rushing for 460 yards and throwing for 814. Donegal plays good defense but will have trouble containing Wagner.
Donegal 4A 4-1 (NR)
Donegal has their work cut out for them traveling to Lampeter to play the Pioneers in a Section-3 game. LS beat them 42-0 last year with a 9-1 district championship team that lost to Jersey Shore 39-35 in the 4A semifinals. They’re not at that level but Qb Wagner has them playing at a higher than expected level. Across the field, Donegal has their option purring at 269 yards rushing a game but haven’t played a teams of LS’s caliber on the road.
York-Adams
Kennard Dale 4A 5-1 (HM)
Not a team most of us are familiar with but here they are winning their last 5 games having defeated a solid 4-2 New Oxford team last week 17-7. They have a strong back in Steven Lukes with 673 yards on 41 carries. That’s an eye popping 16.4 yards per carry. Micah Partee is also getting it down with 240 yards. They head to the battlefield Friday at Gettysburg (4-2, 3-0) for a stiff test for the top spot in the York-Adams-2 where KD is 2-0.
NOTE: Kennard Dale for the curious is way south of York right on the Maryland line, maybe 40-45 miles north of Baltimore. Roll out of bed you’re in Maryland.
Gettysburg 5A 4-2 (NR)
Hesitated putting Gburg in being my alma mater but they’re back to crushing people with smash mouth offense and suffocating defense after a 1-2 start that included a 3 overtime 55-49 loss to rival Waynesboro. The goal this year is to win the York-Adams-2 in their final year of participation. But the BIG NEWS is they’ll rejoin the Mid Penn next year after an 8 year stint in the YA. Until then, hopefully they’ll continue crushing people behind a sturdy line of Frankie Richardson 6-4 290 headed to Coastal Carolina, Trevor Gallagher 6-3 260, Connor Kayhoe 6-0 255, Grant DeFoe 6-1 265 and Dunn Kessel 6-3 270. Corn fed! Kennard Dale is up next in a game that will likely decide the YA-2. The KD Rams will test them.
Berks Inter County
Conrad Weiser 4A 4-2 (HM)
Give these guys a defense and look out! Conner Klitsch (6-3, 190, sr) is one of the most exciting quarterbacks in the state, throwing for 1357 yards with a 11/5 ratio at 65%, and rushing for 598 more yards and 5 touchdowns. He is a 3-year starter. Aanjay Feliciano is big time too, snagging 31 passes for 681 yards. But the D is porous at 29ppg with road losses at Cocalico in the opener, 36-21 and two weeks ago at Twin Valley (4-2), 37-34 in double overtime. They’re at 5-1 Hamburg Friday to straighten out the logjam of four teams in second place in the Berks-2 behind Wyommising.
Hamburg 3A 5-1 (NR)
The Hawks are something like the Weiser team they play Friday, putting up a lot of points at 34ppg and being too liberal on defense giving up 21 a game. They were routed at Wyomissing 47-7 in their only challenge of the season. But they’re veteran, returning three backs and the quarterback with some big boys up front. The next three are tough hombres playing Weiser (4-2) with Klitsch and company, Fleetwood (3-3) with their Villanova commit Qb Tanner Maddocks and Twin Valley (4-2) who’s doing something right with two overtime wins.
Dropped out
Boone 5A 3-3 (HM)
South Western 5A 4-2 (HM)
Octorara 4A 4-2 (HM)
Twin Valley 5A 4-2 (HM)
New Oxford 5A 4-2 (HM)
