The brackets are what the brackets are....not sure on the years with this.....but Northern Cambria went that way and SILVER..'08?....BG went that way and Gold 07?....2 years ago Southern Fulton played in the Eastern final and lost to Tri-Valley....Cudos to Portage...They caught a break! Good Luck w...

Bellwood girls defeat Burrell 59-53. A huge win! Will face Seton La Salle GCC winner. GCC was winning at half by 1

Bishop Carroll - 40 Clairon - 39 FINAL District 6 now represents 4 out of the last 16 girls teams in the state in Class A. That's pretty dang Impressive. Yeah, and it isn't just this year. In recent years, d6A girls have had prolonged success. I think they had 3 of the final 8 about 4 or 5 years ag...

Nice to see Indiana excelling. I used to think they should drop the WPIAL and join d6 (and still not for sure), but they view WPIAL as more of a gold standard, helping their athletes reach the next level and making each game more meaningful. You can argue it either way (because if in an easier distr...

@ the Half: Blairsville 51 Cameron County 15 Blairsville's got talent, good teamwork, good coach. Oohmy Blairsville's got some of that pressure d you crave. Personally, I don't think full court pressure is the end-all be-all. I do like half-court pressure in your face. Some teams can do it though an...

Bellwood will suddenly have to start playing much better. I have heard a lot about the recent d6AA teams being great (Blairsville/Bellwood last year and Bellwood/McCort this year). The results have shown they have just been locally great but not on the state level (maybe these teams should start pla...

^ Yeah... what a string of talented boys bball players Saltsburg had for a long time for such a small area (a lot of them Reed's and/or cousins). When Jesse came, Saltsburg had plummeted to the bottom in talent sans him though, and I'm sure that contributed to the decision. I've never got too caught...

Blairsville opened impressively, beating Bellwood 54-45 in Hollidaysburg final today (Bville crushed Bradford yesterday and Bellwood beat Hollidaysburg). It was a sweet rematch of last year's AA title game. Blairsville didn't finish well last year. It will be interesting to see what happens this yea...

Blairsville girls move down to Single A next year. Both Blairsville and Bellwood were better than BG imho this year. But with this "new group" of players and their better-than-expected run this year, maybe BG will win another d6 title next year. No matter what, though, it will be interesti...

All these blowouts are kind of good b/c it just shows what a silly system the PIAA has in place. And also more likely makes Single A power schools want to voluntarily move up. I heard LP is moving up to AA if not AAA next year. Is that legit or not?
