2023 Season Outlook:
The expectations do not change much for Wilson. They will play a hard non-conference schedule and then compete for a Section 1 Lancaster-Lebanon League Title along with a PIAA District 3 Title. Last year I was at their week 1 game against Roman Catholic, in a game they got dominated, but Wilson recovered to have a good year. Wilson will lose Cam Jones a dynamic player but still bring back a talented group of individuals. Bringing back Tommy Hunsicker Tommy Hunsicker QB Wilson | 2024 State PA at Quarterback really helps. As well as Jack Dendall Jack Dendall 6'4" | 270 lbs | OL Wilson (West Lawn) | 2024 State PA at offensive tackle. I expect Wilson to be in the mix for League Title again and possibly a PIAA District Title run.
