For the first time since 2018, Wyomissing enters a season with a starting quarterback not named Zechman. Zach and most recently Ben Zechman have been under center for the Spartans. Logan Hyde will take over that position this fall. “I’ve been playing quarterback most of my life. I’m really excited. It’s a really big role at Wyomissing,” he stated. The 5’11, 185-pound rising senior started at safety last year when Wyomissing went (13-1) and reached the PIAA-3A semifinals. Hyde knows that the Spartans’ powerful rushing attack is a quarterback’s best friend. “We throw five times, maybe six times a game. It works every time. We have the one route [that] always works,” he said with a smile. Wyomissing averaged 330 rushing yards per game and 7.9 per carry a season ago. J’ven Williams, a freshman at Penn State, and PSU commit Caleb Brewer helped pave the way to a fourth consecutive District 3 championship. “You can’t feel more protected behind those guys. They just crush people. They’re so reliable, especially when they’re pulling. They’re specimens,” emphasized Hyde. He mentioned that Max Tipton and Jordan Gwyn are two players to keep an eye on up front this year. Both of them got playing time last season as sophomores. Hyde is a lacrosse standout for the Spartans. He racked up 71 goals and 21 assists this spring. His 92 points were the second-most in Berks County. Hyde has offers from Wagner and NJIT. He expects to make a decision soon. Hyde also plays basketball. I asked him about Wyomissing’s new head coach Garrett Etzel. “He’s a great leader. He really connects with us on a personal level,” noted Hyde. Etzel was a star guard at Gov. Mifflin and then Alvernia. As a multi-sport athlete, Hyde doesn’t have much free time. He enjoys golfing with his friends. We also talked about his favorite teachers and food.
