<!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2><strong>District 2:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>Dunmore vs Mt. Carmel</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This should be a fantastic matchup in Mt. Carmel this evening as the Bucks and Red Tornadoes matchup. Dunmore is coming off an impressive offensive showing against Old Forge last Friday in a 43-35 win. While Mt. Carmel took down North Schuylkill 25-17. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>it will be interesting to see how Dunmore's offense is able to move the ball against one of the better defenses on their schedule this season in the Red Tornadoes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Prospects:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 OL Matt Kelley - Mt.

Valley View started off their season with a loss themselves to Crestwood 20-7. With the quality talent on both sides of the ball, this should be a fun game and could be a defensive battle to the end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Prospects:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 LB Spencer Kishbaugh - Berwick</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 DB Dreyton Wilk - Berwick</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 QB Adam Howanitz - Valley View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 RB Connor Hilling - Valley View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 DB Taheed Jewell - Valley View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 QB Casey Malsberger - Valley View</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2><strong>District 3:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Cumberland Valley vs Central York</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the best games throughout the state this weekend, Cumberland Valley and Central York has a chance to be a barnburner. Cumberland Valley opened their season last week with a 31-27 victory over Manheim Township while Central York defeated Central Dauphin 36-19. Expect a high-scoring affair on Friday night in York. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Prospects:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 WR Griffin Huffman - Cumberland Valley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 RB Isaac Sines - Cumberland Valley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024 LB Alex Sauve - Cumberland Valley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024 WR Caiden Pines - Cumberland Valley</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024 RB Bryce Staretz - Cumberland Valley<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 OL Danny Pham - Central York</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 WR Parker Hines - Central York</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023 RB Ajani Walker - Central York</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024 RB Juelz Goff - Central York</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025 DB Saxton Suchanic - Central York</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Dallastown vs Manheim Township</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A matchup between two teams looking for their first wins of the season, there will be plenty of talent on display in this one. Dallastown has two of the best wide receivers regardless of class in the state in 2023 Pittsburgh commitment Kenny Johnson and 2025 prospect Michael Scott. 2024 quarterback Hayden Johnson is one of the better quarterback prospects in the state for Manheim Township and can take over any game in the blink of an eye. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Prospects:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; WR&nbsp; Kenny Johnson&nbsp; -&nbsp; Dallastown</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; QB&nbsp; Owen Strouse&nbsp; - Dallastown</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025&nbsp; WR&nbsp; Michael Scott&nbsp; - Dallastown</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025  QB  Matthew Stone  - Dallastown</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024  QB  Hayden Johnson -  Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024  WR  Landon Kennel -  Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024  WR  Asher Wolfe - Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025  DL  Julian Larue - Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025  QB  Carson Weisser - Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025  ATH  Donald Rodriguez - Manheim Township</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2><strong>District 4:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>Southern Columbia vs Shamokin</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Southern Columbia held off a strong effort by Berwick last week to pick up their first victory of the season and will face a quality defensive test this week against Shamokin.

For the Dragon, they'll need their offense to take a major step up from last week's effort if they hope to knock off Jersey Shore. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Key Prospects:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; QB&nbsp; Brady Jordan - Jersey Shore Area</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; WR&nbsp; Kooper Peacock - Jersey Shore</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024&nbsp; OL&nbsp; Dyson Delaney -&nbsp; Jersey Shore</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025  ATH  Elijah Jordan - Jersey Shore</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; OL&nbsp; Dylan Croner -&nbsp; Lewisburg Area</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2023&nbsp; DB&nbsp; Cam Michaels -&nbsp; Lewisburg</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2024&nbsp; DB&nbsp; Ryan Opperman -&nbsp; Lewisburg</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>2025&nbsp; ATH&nbsp; Jeremiah Davis - Lewisburg Area</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h2><strong>District 5:</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2><strong>Tussey Mountain vs Windber</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This should be a fun District 5 matchup, last weekend Tussey Mountain started their season off with a 28-14 win over Moshannon Valley and will now face one of District 5's premier teams in the Windber Ramblers.

The Dragons had to hold off Bishop Guilfoyle in week one 21-20 to bring home their own victory. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Both teams have offenses that can explode at any moment but are also built around stout defenses.

The Little Lions opened their season with a 42-14 win over Williamsport last weekend. Downingtown East had an impressive victory of their own, defeating Pennrdige 30-6.
