The kicker for The Prep is a kid from The Southern Lehigh School District, about 50 miles away. Yep, it’s an even playing field.

- Start date
WPIAL Class A Championship Game: Fort Cherry vs Clairton
FC leading 7 - 6 after 1 quarter. Matt Seig looking very impressive so far - both offensively with 100 yds+ passing and on D. Only 2nd offensive TD given up by Clairton this year(?)
ETA: FC 14 - 6 at the half. Matt has 102 yds passing, 48 yds rushing and 2 TD's
Clairton 20 - 14 after 3
Final FC 21 -20 Seig with the winning TD pass on 4th down inside the 10 with 2+ min. to go. Unbelievable blind pass on a busted play.

In Massachusetts, the private Catholics compete against the publics (regular and postseason) and while they do have an advantage over the publics, the difference isn't as pronounced. The privates still shouldn't be competing against the publics for postseason team competitions in Massachusetts, but the advantage isn't as overwhelming as it can be in PA's case, because MA has a robust elite private/prep school system. Those schools - the 50-70K/year schools that also heavily recruit - compete against each other, and not the publics. They throw scholarships at the physical freaks, and that takes a large contingent of them out of the talent pool that the "normal" privates can select from. So while the Catholics do produce a D1 kid here and there, they aren't just littered with them. In PA, St. Joe's fills the void that a "typical" 70K/yr prep school in New England would fill.
Nope. I knew Keith though. I was on the lower end of the street. My last name is Brown.

Port Allegheny stomped Wilmington 38-20. Their one back had close to 300 yards.
Fort Cherry next for them.
Fort Cherry next for them.
Ah, yes. I knew Chris well. I was friends with your son in law. We played a lot of volleyball together just after college. I moved away in 1990.
Hope Ft. Cherry's next game is televised. PSU 2026 commit Sieg (QB/runner for FC) got bottled up pretty good by Clairton but still made the plays down the stretch to pull out the come from behind 1 pt win.
Port Allegheny school has a YouTube channel. They have live streamed every one of their games to this point. And I saw they have their game this week listed already as upcoming.
This should be a really good game.
If anybody knows how I can watch the Penn Cambria - Avonworth please post it. I'll be at camp for deer season.
For anybody interested, Port Allegheny vs Fort Cherry will be on Ports YouTube channel live. As will Troy vs Riverside. I believe both are Friday at 7. I'll post others as I find them.
Did he often act over the top, so he was known as Extra Crispy?
