Ephrata won the last time they faced Governor Mifflin and Malachi Knowles did his part to make sure it happened again. The Mountaineers walked away with a 28-20 victory over the Mustangs on Friday thanks in part to Knowles, who rushed for 62 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 204 yards and one TD while completing 91.7% of his passes. His passing game has become a key predictor of Ephrata's success: the team is undefeated when his passer rating is 100 or higher, but only 3-4 otherwise.
One reason for the win was Ephrata's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. Bryson Carpenter was especially locked on to Governor Mifflin's QB and sacked him twice.
The win made it two in a row for Ephrata and bumps their season record up to 6-4. The victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 42.5 points over those games. As for Governor Mifflin, they have traveled a rocky road recently, having lost six of their last seven contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-7 record this season.
