Re: SW AA

Something I wonder… Did Ridge’s long run of success actually hurt the district overall? Weird thought…but…Do kids not come out because they know for the last decade what Ridge is? I don’t think it’s anything major but I wouldn’t be surprised if the extreme success and so often battling for a 2nd fro...

Re: Tribune Democrat all area team

Using tackles as a stat for these awards is no bueno. Some kids have 150+ tackles on a season with teammates also well over 100. That’s completely absurd. I don’t know if that’s the case here. I didn’t look, but we usually have a leader around 60-80 and then kids are out there with 160+. 1 tackle sh...

Re: Rule changes

6 classes is awesome. The rules I don’t care for: 1. Don’t treat a FG like a punt. If you try a FG from the 5 and miss it, it’s a touchback and the other team gets the ball at the 20. Risk it from 50 yards out and the ball is not kicked well at all and rolls dead on the 2. It’s the same as a punt. N...

Re: SCA. Westinghouse

Also, SC should play up.

They have proven that they are too good for AA. They would get beat in 4A for sure. They don’t have the team to play at that level. Aliquippa would smoke them. Quips -21.5 if they played next week.

Re: SCA. Westinghouse

If you’ve never been to States in person… Go. S Columbia should have lost. They just are a machine. I think Steelton is right there with both of the teams from today. The line of SC didn’t look like they were going to be very good compared to previous years but they get it done. Westinghouse outplay...

Re: SCA. Westinghouse

When 5AA absorbed Westinghouse as a sub regional it was to make 4 teams I believe. Before that AA went with D9. I don’t think AA had 4 teams when that started but I’m not sure.

Re: SCA. Westinghouse

CT will be A also. They dropped a co-op with JCS. It will be interesting to see what the PIAA does with them bracket wise. With CT, D5A can hold their own tournament and doesn’t need a team. With the enrollment system as it is, I’m curious how Westinghouse gets to their final number. Competition wis...

Re: Football State Championships- WHAT IF

In 1989, I was 8 years old and lived on John Street, directly across from the front of the high school. I was allowed to walk across to the games and remember watching the games in 89-90. I don't remember much other than Greg Washington being a stud. I was already hooked on football by this time but...

Re: Local Semi-Final Games

With all those transfers these schools are not like A schools anywhere else. Aliquippa’s team a couple years ago…insane. That’s not an A school in any way in my opinion.
