Spring Mills Cardinals vs. Morgantown Mohigans: High School Football Rematch Under the Lights

The stage is set for one of the most anticipated matchups of the WV high school football season as the Spring Mills High School football team (3–1) hosts the Morgantown Mohigans (4–0) this Friday night. Fans across the region know this isn’t just another game — it’s a rematch of last year’s WVSSAC high school football playoffs, where Spring Mills edged Morgantown in the quarterfinals with a thrilling 14–7 victory.


In that 2024 playoff clash, the Spring Mills Cardinals football squad broke a fourth-quarter tie with a clutch touchdown. Their defense then came up huge, delivering a late stop that sealed the win and ended the Mohigans’ season. For Morgantown, the loss has fueled a mission for redemption in 2025, and their perfect start proves it.


The Morgantown High School football team enters Week 5 undefeated at 4–0, powered by rising star quarterback Maddox Twigg (Class of 2028). Twigg has been doing his thing all season — showing poise, making smart reads, and delivering big plays that have the Mohigans rolling. For such a young QB, he’s quickly become the centerpiece of Morgantown’s offense and a name to watch across West Virginia high school football.

Spring Mills, however, will be led by its own headliner: senior Xavier Anderson, a University of Cincinnati commit. Anderson has been terrorizing opponents all season, making plays on both sides of the ball and setting the tone with his athleticism and leadership. Whether it’s catching passes, breaking tackles, or shutting down opponents on defense, Anderson has been the difference-maker for the Cardinals — and he’ll be expected to rise once again under the Friday night lights.

At 3–1, the Spring Mills football schedule 2025 already shows how battle-tested the Cardinals have been. To slow down Twigg and Morgantown’s offense, Spring Mills will lean on Anderson’s star power along with a defense that thrives in big moments.

This Spring Mills vs. Morgantown matchup has all the makings of a playoff atmosphere — intensity, rivalry energy, and a spotlight on two of the top programs in the state. Fans can expect hard hits, big plays, and the kind of Friday night drama that defines WV high school football.
