Governor Mifflin Girls / Boys Sweep Exeter Twp. (Twitter Recap)
Written by: Bruce Badgley on February 9, 2021
The only good thing about snow days, is that occasionally we end up with girls / boys basketball double headers. Monday night in Shillington Governor Mifflin hosted Exeter Twp in one of those double dip matchups. In the Girls tilt, the Berks 1 leading Mustangs dominated from the start. Mifflin moved to 9-0 in the league and 11-3 overall by beating the Eagles 48-17. In the nightcap, the Mustangs held the Eagles to only 8 first half points in a 50-36 victory.
The Mifflin girls got off to a fast start and never looked back
