The 17th winningest high school football program in America may be making a change at the top, two months before the start of the 2012 season.

The Citizens Voice is reporting that Berwick's Gary Campbell is considering resigning to take-over the Wahconah Regional High School football program in Dalton, Massachusetts.

Campbell has led the Bulldogs to a 46-25 record in six seasons as head coach after taking over for the legendary head coach George Curry, Pennsylvania's winningest head coach.

According to the Citizens Voice, Wahconah's school board will hold a meeting on Thursday, at which time it's expected to vote on Campbell becoming its athletic director and head football coach.  Berwick's school board will meet Monday and could decide to open-up the Bulldogs' job sooner.

Berwick enters the 2012 season with an all-time record of 747-317-43.
