I could be wrong but Steelton-Highspire might not have a home stadium at the moment. I remember seeing it was condemned and there were efforts to rebuild it to make it suitable again.

I think covid changed things we're you could host a state playoff game. But I thought you have to have turf to host and im pretty sure meyersdale doesn't.

Steelton's home field was condemned. They have been playing at different district 3 fields all year.

Steel-High has played all their home games away from home this year as they are renovating their field/stadium otherwise Ridge would be traveling there.

The Westinghouse-Meyersdale is NOT a PIAA State game but a sub-regional and by agreement D5 (Windber) played at D8 (Westinghouse) home site last year and so Westinghouse travels to Meyersdale this year. Turf isn't required until it's a PIAA game.

Is the football field included in the renovations at PC? Without a doubt it’s the worst in the LHAC. Embarrassing!

I played on PC's field in the mid 80's, do not think it has changed since then.
