Governor Mifflin Storms Back To Down Warwick 77-70

Written by: Bruce Badgley on February 19, 2020

The District Three Basketball Tournament is filled with regular season rematches. None was more lopsided than Warwick ‘s 64-36 win over Governor Mifflin in early January. Teams this time of year must have short term memories. In the case of the Mustangs, it must have only been a matter of minutes. Forgetting about the regular season drubbing and a 13 point second half deficit Governor Mifflin came out of nowhere to defeat Warwick 77-70 in double overtime Tuesday night

Bryce Harman and Greg Suber spearheaded the Mifflin comeback. Harman tallied a game high 26 and Suber added 19. Chase Yarberough paced Warwick with 24.

Warwick started quickly and moved in front in quarter one
