Class is in session

Well, this week had a few games that would go in and test these teams and see how good they are. Some have passed with flying colors and others have some work to do. Well, with enough said, here are a few highlights from this week's games

WYOMING AREA KNOCKS OFF BERWICK AT THE DAWG POUND
Wyoming Area beat Berwick on Friday night 34-20. Brian Miles had 102 yards and 2 TDs. Berwick came in outscoring their opponents 83-0. I thought this was more of a test for Wyoming Area than it was for Berwick but the game proved that Wyoming Area is for real. No rest for the Warriors however as they host Coughlin and Scranton Prep in the next two weeks.

NANTICOKE UPSETS GAR
Nanticoke beat GAR at home 16-13. Eric Jeffries returned a fumble 73 yards and the defense gave up 62 yards totals. Justin Casey also added 3 sacks for Nanticoke. Surprising result for Nanticoke, after losing to Tunkhannock, I did not see them beating GAR.

DUNMORE WINS BATTLE OF THE BEST
Dunmore beat Lakeland 32-21 in a matchup of highly ranked teams. Colin Holmes ran for 2 touchdowns and caught another. Kyle Lasher ran for 125 yards and a touchdown. Mike Lowry had a 71 yard touchdown run for Lakeland.

HANOVER AREA TAKES DOWN MEYERS
Hanover Area took down Meyers 20-14 in overtime. Brandon Chafin had 147 yards and 2 touchdowns, including the game-winner. Hanover Area came back from 14-0 down to force overtime.

DELAWARE VALLEY TAKES VICTORY
Delaware Valley beat Valley West 29-13. Matt Cavalaro threw for 263 yards and 3 TDs and Ryan Obiso ran for 131 yards and a touchdown. After their opening night loss, Del Val has proven they are the best team in 6A.

COLLEGE ROUNDUP
-Penn State fell to Pitt 42-39. Saquon Barkley had 5 total TDs for Penn State in the loss.
-King's defeated Lycoming 41-28. Zach Whitehead threw for 423 yards and a touchdown pass to Trey Campbell. Tyler Marroni had 10 catches for 170 yards.
-Wilkes fell to Lebanon Valley 38-20. Jose Tabora ran in for a touchdown for Wilkes.
