🎯 NEW PROGRAM RECORD 📝

Senior QB Cole Peterson completed 25 passes for 364 yards and 5 TDs on Friday night vs Central York (10/23/2026). The 364 passing yards is a new Wilson Football program record, surpassing Erich Hetrich's previous record of 359 (at Manheim Township on 10/9/2005).

Cole tied the single-game record for completions; he now shares the record with his asst. QB coach, Chad Henne (2003; Penn Manor).

Peterson's 5 TD passes also places him in a tie for 2nd place for TD passes in a game, matching the performances of Chad Henne (2002; Manheim Township), Eric Hetrich (2005; Red Lion), Madyx Gruber (2024; Governor Mifflin), and Mason Young (2025; Cedar Crest). Madyx Gruber's 6 TD tosses at Reading in 2024 is the program record.

Cole's season-long play also has him flirting with other program records, specifically completion percentage and QB efficiency.

1st, completion % in a game: 13-of-14 at Mifflin (8/28/2026)
1st, completion % in a season: 75.15%
1st, season passing efficiency: 192.31
1st, career completion %: 74.87%
1st, career passing efficiency: 189.78

Most of those records are currently held by Tony Cipolla (1998-1999).

Peterson needs just 30 passing yards for 2,000 in his career, and 263 for 2,000 in the 2026 season. Should he hit those marks he will be the 15th (career) and 9th (single season) QB to do so in Wilson Football history.

Wilson is on quite a run of passers in that regard; Tommy Hunsicker (2023), Madyx Gruber (2024), and Mason Young (2025) all surpassed 2,000 passing yards in a season the last few years.

THE FULL LIST - 2,000+ PASSING YARDS (single season; listed chronologically)

2️⃣ Chad Henne (2002) @chadshenne
3️⃣ Zach Zweizig (2009)

6️⃣ Tommy Hunsicker (2023) @HunsickerTommy
7️⃣ Madyx Gruber (2024) @madyx_gruber

CONGRATULATIONS, COLE! @CP12027

Thank you to representatives from The Caron Foundation - Kimberly Phillips & Coach Alan Moyer - for speaking with our team yesterday about leadership. Following their talk, the football team selected @_michaelglover as their second "Lead Dog" of 2026. The LEAD DOG Award goes to players that lead by example with their voice and constant effort - on & off the field. Glover is a two-time All-State football selection. He was named a Berks County & LL League 1st Team All-Star, as well as their Outstanding Lineman & Offensive Lineman of the Year in 2025. Glover - who will be a senior during the Fall 2026 season - plays TE, DE, and is a long-snapper. He currently holds seven offers to play college football. Congratulations, Michael! #WilsonSD

@coachdecost1 Neat idea to have it all outlined like this. Did you ever think of having a Lifter of Month selected by team instead of or in addition to coaches? Can help create a culture where players are set to praise others. Just a thought

Happy New Year! As of today, there are 239 days until kickoff of our 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ season! Our schedule is a bit different this year, as we will once again - just like 2024 - have only four regular season games at InstaShine Car Wash Field at John Gurski Stadium. We will get things started on the road, as we head to Shillington to battle our rival Mustangs on Friday, August 28th! The schedule also features our first game ever vs Bucks powerhouse CB West; the first game vs fellow Berks squad Muhlenberg since 2008 (and non-playoff game since 1980); a match-up with LL rival Manheim Township for the League AND home opener; and our first regular season tussle with Central York. So... are you ready? 🏈🐾🏈

As we creep closer and closer to the end of the calendar year, our attention looks ahead - to 2026. The focus of our underclassmen football players is united, with all eyes on August. Throughout the offseason, the team will vote periodically on their "Lead Dogs"; players who step up to lead by example with their voice and constant effort - on & off the field. The first 2026 LEAD DOG is @CP12027, who will be a senior next Fall. He has played QB, LB, and DB, and is an all-star long snapper. Congratulations, Cole! 🎇 🏈 🎉 💪 #WilsonSD #LLfootball #pahsfb

Another great spotlight! Tommy is an excellent leader and glad to see him continuing his journey.

[Wilson Athletics @Wilson_Bulldogs]

This week, we are spotlighting Tommy Hunsicker for #BulldogsInTheBigGame! Tommy currently plays football at Millersville University! Learn more about him in this post! #BulldogProud #WilsonSD

[Jake Peterson @PetersonTeach]

@Wilson_Bulldogs Love this spotlight. Ramsey was a model team player. He made sacrifices for the team embracing new roles and was a pillar his senior year. Great player and even better person.
