Forest Hills won last year's game, and at the time that was a bit of an upset.   Forest Hills is obviously a year older and better than last year, so if they win, it won't be an upset at all. 

There are two common opponents so far this season.  Both teams handled Berlin.  Forest Hills handled Somerset, while McCort needed a buzzer beater to get by.  I'm impressed by Forest Hills' win over Hollidaysburg as well. Not sure if that tells us the whole story, but it helps. 

I think McCort's guards are better, but Forest Hills might have an edge inside.  McCort's bigs aren't bad though.  It should be a good game.  McCort always plays well at home generally. I could see it go either way.

We'll find out a lot more about the Rangers over the course of the next 5 games, they have road games to McCort, Westmont, and Central Cambria along with a home game against Bishop Carroll.

At any rate, it's a good time to be a Ranger fan, how bout it Manfred? Boys' and Girls' teams are both having nice seasons so far.

Penn Cambria winning that was a bit of a surprise. But Bellwood and Tyrone each lost their star player from last season, and it's showing early on.
