Week five is passed us, and that mean’s the next month will lead us to playoff football.
Of the six teams in Lebanon County, one has a winning record and two others are a game away from hitting .500 — meaning the upcoming stretch is crucial for all. After the 2024 season hit its halfway mark, let’s look at the schedule for Week 6.

Palmyra (1-4) vs. Mifflin County (1-4)
Although Palmyra hasn’t seen a close contest in its last four games, the Cougars have shown the talent to give problems to opponents. Their upcoming game will be a return to Buck Swank Stadium where the Cougars won their only game this season. On the other sideline, the Huskies also come in on a four-game slide, but their only win happened to come on the road in a 42-6 beating versus Central Mountain.
The Huskies are led by a strong passing attack and a defense that’s seen some turnovers despite allowing 158 points since Week 1. The offense is commanded by senior quarterback Fletcher Wilson, who has thrown for over 600 yards along with eight touchdowns and four interceptions. Another notable player on the Huskies is senior Cyrell Green, who leads the receivers’ group and secondary. The senior has 15 catches for 285 yards and four scores on offense thus far, along with two interceptions at cornerback.
One of the Cougars’ strong points on defense has been its secondary, so the group has a chance to impact the game directly against Wilson and his receivers. If Palmyra’s lineup of running backs all see action, the backfield could be the leading factor in a crucial game.
