Bob Wolfrum has been the mainstay in Wyomissing. “He’s such a good role model to so many people and I’m not talking just football players. He was an outstanding baseball coach, many people forget that. He was a Dean, he was a teacher, just a good person and a good …

If you ever used Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl on the original Nintendo, you know what Wyomissing’s rushing attack looked like in the District 3-3A championship. The Spartans finished with an eye-popping 622 yards on 41 carries! They rolled over third-seeded West Perry 63-7 to capture their fourth straight District …

Three Berks County football teams are still alive in the District 3 playoffs.  Exeter and Twin Valley are in action on Friday at 7pm.  Wyomissing will take the field on Saturday at 1pm.  Here’s a preview of their matchups.  I’ll be covering the Eagles and the Spartans this week. #11 …

We’ve all heard the phrase “defense wins championships” countless times. Wyomissing proved it on Saturday afternoon against Lampeter-Strasburg.

Charlie McIntyre only had twelve carries in Wyomissing’s first two games. Welcome to life in the Wing-T offense. The Spartans’ running backs share the workload and that’s just fine with McIntyre. “None of us really worry about stats. We’re just trying to win games and that’s our mentality. Just run …

When you’re the quarterback in a Wing-T offense, you know your passing attempts will be limited. Ben Zechman made the most of his opportunities at Pottsville on Friday night. The 6’2, 185-pound senior averaged 26 yards per attempt in a 49-0 rout. Zechman was 4-of-5 for 132 yards and two …
