Colin Payne set a single-season school record for passing yards and helped Exeter capture its first District 3 championship last year.

The Mustangs are trying to prove that having two quarterbacks is better than one. Senior Eden Johnson and junior Delsin McNeil are both seeing time under center this season for Gov. Mifflin. McNeil was 3-3 for 64 yards and a TD in a (49-13) victory over Harrisburg. The Mustangs outscored …

Zach Zechman was the starting QB and an all-state DB for the Spartans last year. Now his brother, Ben, is running the Wing-T offense for Wyomissing. The 6’3 junior was an efficient 5-7 for 82 yards and a TD in a 47-7 victory over previously unbeaten Hamburg. Zechman told me …
