Week 10: Fearless Friday Football Forecast (updated with results)
2024 Berks football coverage
presented by UECU
The most pivotal game on the Week 9 schedule turned out to be Lampeter-Strasburg at Twin Valley. It wasn’t close — Caileb Howse and his seven touchdowns had something to do with that — but it was important. It gave Jeff Reinhart sole possession of first place in the race for the third annual Fearless Forecaster title.
One week later the Pioneers are again in the spotlight as they visit Wyomissing in what shapes up as the Fearless Forecasters Game of the Week. Reinhart, who has a slim one-game lead heading down the stretch, again has picked Lampeter and again is the only one of the top contenders to go in that direction.
The Spartans are a slight 7-5 favorite, but the Forecasters have been known to be wrong on these kind of things.
Each week, MikeDragoSports.com staff writers, photographers, and contributors, along with Reinhart and Mike Gross of football partner LNP/Lancasteronline, will pick all the Berks games, along with other selected other Lancaster-Lebanon League games.
We’ll keep standings and the Forecaster with the most points at the end of the season will get a (relatively) big prize!
Each correct pick earns one point; if a Forecaster “doubles down” on a Berks team and is correct he gets two points. Each Fearless Forecaster can “down double” on a team only once during the regular season (and once again during the postseason)
