1st Seed Bye Wyomissing
4th Seed Schuylkill Valley vs. 5th Littlestown = winner plays Wyomissing
2nd Seed Bye Lancaster Catholic
3rd Seed West Perry vs. 6th Seed Bermudian Spring = winner plays Lancaster Catholic
Favorite to win District Title: Wyomissing is the overwhelming favorite to win the District 3 Title. They are a great team that has played well for Years. I expect Wyomissing to win the District Championship this year.
Sleeper Team: West Perry. West Perry has played well all year and has only lost to state power Steelton-Highspire. I think they will play Wyomissing tough and give them a good game if they get through Lancaster Catholic in a possible 2nd round match-up.
Top Prospects:
Caleb Brewer Caleb Brewer 6'5" | 285 lbs | OL Wyomissing | 2024 State PA Wyomissing. Brewer the Penn State commit has had a strong season for Wyomissing. He has been a consistent player all year for Wyomissing and helps propel their dynamic run game.
Highlights
Chase Eisenhower Chase Eisenhower 5'11" | 215 lbs | RB Wyomissing | 2026 State PA Wyomissing. The leading rusher for Wyomissing. Eisenhower has rushed for 789 yards and 10 touchdowns on the year. Not gaudy numbers, but Wyomissing rotates their running backs to keep all of them fresh.
Highlights
Marcus Quaker Marcus Quaker 5'11" | 170 lbs | QB West Perry | 2024 State PA West Perry. Quaker is a talented quarterback for West Perry and has helped springboard West Perry to a 9-1 record this year. He currently has two offers, one from the University of Penn and Shippensburg University. He is a good quarterback that should get more offers. Quaker gives West Perry a chance at winning a District Championship.
Highlights
Elijah Cunningham Elijah Cunningham 5'10" | 200 lbs | RB Lancaster Catholic | 2024 State PA Lancaster Catholic. Cunningham has been a superstar for Lancaster Catholic this year. He has rushed for 1636 yards and eye-popping 27 touchdowns. He has carried Lancaster Catholic at times.
2A
1st Seed Anneville-Cleona vs. 4th Seed Camp Hill
2nd Seed Trinity vs. 3rd Seed Delone Catholic
Favorite to win District Title: Trinity. Trinity is an excellent team, that went 7-3, but still is a very talented team. They play in a tough section of the Mid-Penn Conference, so they should be prepared for the playoffs.
Sleeper Team: Anneville-Cleona. They have been a consistent team that is always a tough out for teams. They run the veer offense, which is always hard to stop or slow down.
Best Prospects:
Messiah Mickens Messiah Mickens 5'10" | 185 lbs | RB Harrisburg | 2026 State PA Trinity. Mickens is one of the best prospects in the state. Every time he touches the ball at running back he is a tough player to bring down. He is a physical running back who has good speed as well.
Highlights
Caleb Wray Caleb Wray 6'3" | 180 lbs | QB Trinity | 2024 State PA Trinity. Wray is someone I saw at our Prep Redzone showcase in the off-season and I came away very impressed by him as a player. He has carried it over to a strong Senior year as he led Trinity to a strong season.
Bryce Keller Bryce Keller 5'10" | 150 lbs | ATH Annville-Cleona | 2025 State PA Anneville-Cleona. In Anneville-Cleona’s offense, the fullback plays a big role, so Keller has had a big year for them this year. He has rushed for 758 yards and 6 touchdowns on the year.
Highlights
Drew Branstetter Drew Branstetter 6'1" | 175 lbs | QB Camp Hill | 2025 State PA Camp Hill. Branstetter has had a strong Junior Season for Camp Hill. On Friday night against Boiling Springs he threw for 316 yards and 4 touchdowns. He has been the main cog behind Camp Hill all year.
1A
1st Seed Steel-Highspire vs. 2nd Seed Halifax
Game Match Up: Steel-High is one of the best teams in District 3 and the State of Pennsylvania regardless of class size. They are loaded with CFB players all over the field. It is an uphill battle for Halifax.
Top Players:
