Brad Hoffman-Wilson

It’s not easy to accomplish something that no one else has at an established program like Wilson. Brad Hoffman made history by becoming the first Bulldogs’ quarterback to run for 1,000 yards in a single season. The Berks Catholic transfer reached that milestone with an impressive performance at Central York in the District 3-6A semifinals. Hoffman ran for 167 yards and a TD on 29 carries. Wilson knocked off the previously unbeaten Panthers 14-11. Hoffman described the feeling of beating one of the best teams in the state. The 6’2, 205-pound QB is averaging 6.6 yards per carry. He has 1,038 rushing yards and 12TD. The Bulldogs have only attempted 26 passes in their last four games. Hoffman told me that he’s willing to do whatever it takes to win. He’s thrown for 776 yards with 11TD and 9INT. Wilson has won seven straight after struggling early on. Hoffman talked about what it would mean to win a District 3 championship after that rough start. He believes the offensive line has been dominant late in the season. The fifth-seeded Bulldogs travel to (11-1) Harrisburg on Saturday at 1pm. Wilson is looking for its 8th District 3 title and first since 2016. The Bulldogs own the state record with 46 consecutive winning seasons! Finally, Hoffman had some fun discussing Coach Dahms’ beard. He said, “He’s as close to Santa as anyone I know.” Doug Dahms has been Wilson’s head coach for 16 years. He started as an assistant there in 1976.
