September 6, 2012
Welcome to Week 2 of the high school football season. Chick’s Picks dreads making her predictions the first few weeks of the season. Her crystal ball is usually still a bit cloudy from the off-season, making it difficult to foresee accurate picks. The boss does not want to hear about a lackluster performance from the crystal ball, however, so the pressure is on from Day 1.MSA Sports Top Ten – WPIAL Football – 09/04/2012

August 23, 2012
Freeport and Shady Side Academy tied for the conference championship two of the past three seasons. This year could be more of the same. Many are pegging Freeport and Shady Side Academy as the teams to beat this year. Both teams are experienced and have some talented players. But Burrell and Ford City can’t be overlooked. The Allegheny Conference changed a little this season. Apollo-Ridge and West Shamokin both dropped out of the conference and moved down to the Class A Eastern Conference. That should help West Shamokin, which hasn’t won a game since the 2007 season.Scholastic Notebook – 05/11/2012

Thomas Jefferson pitcher Greg Schneider hasn’t just been unbeatable this season. It has been almost impossible to score on him. Schneider had one of the most dominating regular seasons of any pitcher in recent WPIAL history. Schneider, a Thomas Jefferson senior and a Pitt recruit, led Thomas Jefferson to the Class AAA Section 3 title. His statistics were remarkable.Hempfield Sweeps AAA Team Track Gold As Wash High & Freeport Win in AA
