Ridley vs. Penncrest should be an interesting game. Assuming everyone is healthy, Ridley would be significant underdogs vs. Haverford and GV.
You and me bothNice job foot! I would be lucky to make the practice squad in 2024. I counted no more than 7-8 who are still around today.
Tulla, blitz was the man behind making the list.
He was the coachWhat about Blitz?
still too early to say- but no way South Fayette belongs that high, they might not even make the playoffs- their team has not gone "deep" in playoffs for many years- certainly not in 5A-1. USC
2. Pine Richland
3. Peters township
4. Bethel park
5. South Fayette
What about Blitz?

Congratulations, gentlemen....and if anybody´s been left out, please write in and complain!
Yeah, the team will face Ohio or West Virginia in the coming weeks. Will run the Power-I on offense and a 3-4 defense with a lot of stunts and blitzes. Nobody has to play both ways! For the guys who don´t like each other...tough luck.
Team was selected totally subjectively, the people I like got first consideration, of course! Open to comments and suggestions....tried to take nicknames and numbers into positional consideration. (ie, somebody with a number 78 in their nickname can´t play in the backfield, etc.)
Rankings are fun- but it's just too early to rank based upon records- some of these teams have barely played each other- this order is gonna change a lot- maybe 5 ways in the next 5 weeks. Two smaller examples- it's possible that North Hills could finish in the top to 5, and possible that South Fayette could finish outside the top ten!Karlo Zofko's WPIAL Insider Top 25 All Class Rankings has 13 5A teams in it. They would go like this:
1. Bethel Park
2. Pine-Richland
3. Upper St. Clair
4. Peters Township
5. South Fayette
6. Woodland Hills
7. Penn Hills
8. Franklin Regional
9. North Hills
10. Penn-Trafford
11. Latrobe
12. Moon
13. Gateway
Same 13 as my top 13, just a different order. I probably have Moon too high, I saw the narrow loss to Bethel Park but didn't realize until later they were outgained by 300+ yards...

5. Moon
6. Franklin Regional

8. North Hills
9. Woodland Hills

Very competitive class in the WPIAL. Top 14 teams are solid. Only the bottom 3 are really poor quality. Pretty sure the champ is coming from my top 4, impossible to say who it will be.
I think looking at the conference- even if they lose to Port- they could get second? Still make playoffsMars wins tonight 42-14. Watched a little on the WM live stream. Were ok from what I saw. Need to win out, including beating Port.
Absolutely! Looking forward to when P-R and NA meet. P-R dropped 71 on Fox Chapel tonight. Could very well be a school record.Well, my tigers lost. It was close throughout. Not really worried, we will win when it counts
Agreed, that’s why I’m not sure they can beat a playoff team.Fletch: Ridley has 2 loses. I'm not sure they can beat Penncrest, GV, and Haverford.
Has something happened to Roman? Injuries to key players? I understand Bonner is solid but this is a big surprise as was the large margin in last week's loss by Roman to DeMatha.Bonner wins 38-30.
Fletch: Ridley has 2 loses. I'm not sure they can beat Penncrest, GV, and Haverford.1. North Penn - Running through everyone after struggling in W1.
2. Downingtown West - Not much competition overall, but nice win versus PV. Rustin is tough one.
3. CB South - Similar to DWest with close win over CB West.
4. Neshaminy - Smacked by NP with a close one over Emmaus. Big one tonight vs West.
5. Owen J Roberts - Only competition so far was PV where they didn't fare well.
6. Perkiomen Valley - Sleeper to make some noise.
7. Haverford - GV handled them but won all other games easily. Springfield and Ridley will tell the story.
8. Pennridge - Probable first round runner-up.
9. CB West - Middle of the pack.
10. Ridley - Not sure they can beat a playoff team.
11. Pennsbury - Probable first round runner-up.
12. Downingtown East - Could be a spoiler in playoffs.
13. Upper Darby - Not sure they can beat a playoff team.
14. Norristown - Not sure they can beat a playoff team.
15. Spring-ford - Not sure possible to do less with their roster. QB out now.
16. Plymouth-Whitemarsh - Might be a top 5 team in District 1.
17. Quakertown - Last second win catapult them to winning out?
18. Coatesville - Will make noise in playoffs.
19. Souderton - Jekyll and Hyde, but could win out.
20. Council Rock South - Outside chance of winning out.
PW (might get bored) and Cville (play both Dtowns, avoids Rustin) will climb up the playoff rankings in the coming.
