Steelton, PA — In a season that has captivated local football fans, star quarterback Alex Erby of the Steelton-Highspire High School Steamrollers, aka Steel-High Rollers, is on the verge of etching his name into the annals of Pennsylvania state football history.

With each electrifying touchdown pass, Alex is drawing closer to breaking the Pennsylvania State All-Time Career Yardage record, a feat that would solidify his legacy as one of the state of Pennsylvania’s greatest high school quarterbacks.

Erby, renowned for his unmatched precision and football IQ, is only 2 yards away from securing the 2nd top spot in the state and just a mere 138 yards from taking the top spot surpassing the record of South Fayette’s Brett Brumbaugh who currently holds the record at 11,084 career yards. The anticipation and excitement surrounding this monumental achievement have reached a fever pitch, not just among Roller faithful but football enthusiasts across the great state of Pennsylvania.

The record-breaking journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Erby’s dedication, relentless work ethic, and leadership on and off the field have propelled him to this historic moment. Having already achieved numerous accolades and milestones throughout his illustrious high school career, this record stands as the crowning jewel in Erby’s pursuit of football greatness.

As the Rollers prepare for their upcoming game against the Camp Hill Lions, eyes will be on Alex as he looks to make history.
