[JHSstandout]

i take it that this is prior to this year? i would have to say that 2 players in western pa would have to be on this list after this season. rushell shell for rushing and gervon simon for passing, he passed up brian mangiafico at the end of this year.

[Eaglealum]

Yeah, and Franco has close to 5700 yds with at least 1 more game, and his dad has 229 wins.

[Athens/Cat]

yeah stats are only up through the 2010 season.

[El-Moldo]

Something's rotten in Denmark. Go to the Career Coach's 200 Win Club. #1 on the list is George Curry who coached for Berwick/Wyoming Valley. Did he really coach 511 games between 1987 and 2008???? Typo???? That's about 23 games per year.

[Skippy]

He coached from 1967-2008, three different schools, 35 years at Berwick.

[footballfan1]

Tim montgomery was head coach at Shamokin also for a couple seasons. I didn't realize he was head coach at Altoona. From Shamokin he went to Willamsport.

[Athens/Cat]

Yeah you guys are right.
Curry coached from '67-'08 Making stops at Lake Lehman-Berwick-Wyoming Valley West
Montgomery, like you said, went from Shamokin-Williamsport-Altoona from '71-'99

Don't have their exact years at each school
