    Who can report on the NP/Lasalle game

    I was at the Neshaminy scrimmage, saw the Imhotep game via streaming and felt LaSalle was strong. Last night’s game confirmed this. They are very good on both sides of the ball and the score is a reflection.

    PCL Red

    I've seen a number of PCL freshman games this year. I was mostly impressed with Roman & Carroll. Roman had a game recently in Roxborough. They had a good number of kids, and had size, speed, and a QB who could throw accurately 50 yards. More impressive was the number of spectators...

    GA @ NG Cancelled

    There was a similar situation in the recent past. Episcopal Academy cancelled a game against Red Lion Academy. The similarity ends there. Red Lion Academy (Northern Delaware), truly, was an all-star team, physically imposing, with a good number of players D1 recruits. It was compared to IMG...

    PCL Weak Games Schedule

    Can you remember the 1st HS game you attended

    My early high school games go back to the late 1940's. Roman vs St Joseph's on Thanksgiving, one year at Shibe Park and another at Finnessey Field. Also the city championship games at Franklin Field in 1947 & 1948. West Catholic was in both.

    what's up with Lasalle ?

    The back and forth on this topic is as good as it gets. All the comments, to me, are very objective and to the point. LaSalle is not having its "typical" year, yet 3 of their 4 losses have been against legitimate state title contenders.

    Roman v Lasalle

    First of all, Roman played a good game. Gave LaSalle all they could handle. Roman QB converted on a number of 3rd and longs. Both td's resulted from speed. As to the ending, I was at the far end of the field, under the scoreboard. Had good sight of the uprights and the kicks. The first...

    Playoff realization or no playoff realization

    The PCL plaque (hub cap) will go to the team with the best record in the regular season. One for Red Division, one for Blue Division

    Denied 5th year by PIAA?....

    I have heard, in the past, that Haverford School will ask transfers (not only athletes) to repeat their previous year. This isn't necessarily a reflection on the student, but allows the transfer to become acclimated to the academic challenges of the school.
