Each week during the 2020 season we’ll offer some news, notes, tidbits and opinions from each of the five divisions in the Mid-Penn Conference.
Colonial Division
- When was the last time somebody made Shippensburg irrelevant in the second half of a game? Mechanicsburg 35, Shippensburg 0 at halftime. Game over, and wind the mercy rule clock please. It doesn’t get more shocking than that. Greyhounds are reeling a bit.
- The 0-2 team you don’t want to play is West Perry. The Mustangs hung tough with Mechanicsburg, and it took everything including the kitchen sink for Northern to finally subdue West Perry in Week 2. Good luck this week, East Pennsboro.
- Sending out good wishes to the ‘Hanna Tribe as it appears the Indians will once again be a COVID-19 casualty in Week 3.
- Normally there would be a lot of chalk talk and chatter about a Shippensburg vs. Northern game. But one team (Shippensburg) is 0-2 and the other (Northern) is 2-0. Why do I think this game is going to be a super tight squeeze?
