Southern Columbia (15-0) vs. Wilmington (13-1)
Friday 1:00 HersheyPark Stadium

Thoughts, comments, predictions...

SC by 3 TD's.

A rematch here in Class AA.  No need to mention the history of Southern Columbia. This is Southern Columbia's 17th trip to Hershey since 1994, and they will be looking for their 9th all-time state title.

Wilmington is always a competitor out of the West. Greyhounds won it all in 2008 and obviously made it Hershey last year, but lost to SC 48-0.

Will it be any different this year? Hard to imagine - Southern Columbia is great.

Stone Hollenbach is the QB, and he's walking-on at Alabama after a prolific career. Gaige Garcia is an excellent HS running back, and he looks like he may be a high level wrestling recruit, or he may be good enough to play D1 football also - he has a lot of options. And then Julian Flemming is the best junior in the state and one of the best receivers in the country and he has offers from: Clemson, Georgia, LSU, and Ohio State.  But he looks like he will stay home and eventually commit to PSU.  

That's a lot of firepower for a AA team.

It was 7 touchdowns last year when SC beat Wilmington. Might be the same again.

SC 56-7.

The reason they are allowing him to walk on is to hoepfully get some pull with Fleming, arguably the best wr in his class who did make a visit to Bama and Josh Gattis was at PSU, I know someone will say they aren't in his top 6 but pretty sure Saban can never be counted out in a recruiting battle

Yea he supposedly isn't considering Alabama.

Tough luck for Wilmington, Southern Columbia kid caught a pass with 1 second left and he was definitely down at the 1 and it got called a TD.


Instead of a 14-7 Wilmington lead at the half, all tied up.

Great game plan by Wilmington taking the play clock down under 5 seconds every play. Shorten the game.

Southern Columbia 28
Wilmington 14
End 3
