Here are my Berks County high school football rankings. Remember that no matter where your favorite team is ranked, the sun will come out tomorrow! Believe it or not, we have reached the final week of the regular season. That means league championships need to be decided! Unbeaten Gov. Mifflin …

Aiden Mack caught his first touchdown pass of the season in a 49-0 victory over Schuylkill Valley. The 6’4, 220-pound TE only has five receptions this year, but Mack understands that it’s simply part of playing in a Wing-T offense. He told me about the play that the Spartans called …

In a Wing-T offense, the running backs have to make the most of their carries. Drew Eisenhower certainly did that against Schuylkill Valley on Saturday afternoon. The 5’11, 185-pound junior ran for 142 yards on just four carries including a 46-yard TD. He wasn’t done there. Eisenhower opened the second …

The Scouts led Kutztown 21-14 early in the second quarter before turning it on and cruising to a 62-30 victory. It was senior night in Robesonia. Head coach Alan Moyer told me that group of players has really improved over the course of the season. There are 14 seniors on …

Wilson won at Hempfield 28-21. The Bulldogs went on a late game-winning 78-yard TD drive. Jadyn Jones ran for 139 yards and 2TD including the go-ahead score with 32 seconds left! Wilson improves to (6-3) and clinches at least a share of the Section 1 championship in the L-L League. …

In less than a half of action, Logan Klitsch threw for 139 yards and 4TD. He was 5-for-5 in a 62-30 win over Kutztown on senior night. Klitsch was emotional when I spoke with him after the game because he doesn’t know if he’ll ever play on this field in …

It was senior night in Robesonia and Aanjay Feliciano said that he was emotional at halftime of the Scouts’ Section 2 matchup against Kutztown. Feliciano finished with seven catches for 136 yards and 3TD! Conrad improved to (7-2) with a 62-30 victory. The 6’3, 195-pound wide receiver has 1,053 receiving …

Berks County has become known for producing quality high school kickers. There’s a really good one in Birdsboro this season. Nate Millard nailed a 46-yard field goal at Garden Spot in Week 3. That kick tied the school record. He told me that he made a 60-yard field goal in …

Ryan Souder may not be the biggest middle linebacker at 5’8 and 166 pounds, but the junior is always around the football. Souder is Daniel Boone’s leading tackler and a returning starter. The Blazers are on a roll, winning five of their last six games. They’re #10 in the District …

The key to a good running game is the offensive line. Experience and size always help the cause. Daniel Boone has a three-year starter at right tackle in Brian Hollis. The 6’1, 295-pound senior loves when the Blazers pound the rock. He has helped senior RB A.J. Hofer run for …
