PWHS Football Clinches Playoff Berth
This team is the first to qualify for the playoffs since 2005.
has clinched a berth in the PIAA District 1 Class AAAA playoffs for the first time since 2005.
The year matches the last time the Colonials won the Suburban One League American Division title, and an unsung figure in Plymouth Whitemarsh’s march to a 6-1 record has been 5-foot-10, 175-pound junior fullback/linebacker Corey Kelly.
“Corey is like the prototypical hard-working kid on our team,” Colonials’ coach Dan Chang said. “He’s very coachable. He’s the team leader in carries and he grinds out those hard yards on offense and he never complains. The other thing about Corey is he’s one of the fastest kids on our team. Corey is absolutely one of those unsung kids, because his stats aren’t flashy, but he gets the yards when we need them.”
