    Great athletes in Pennsylvania that got in their own way and couldn't stay out of trouble.

    Yeah, but for every YaYah story, there’s also a James Middleton. James played tailback and point guard at Easton, was the best offensive weapon as a junior on the 2010 team that lost to LaSalle in state quarterfinals, and was the leading scorer on their basketball team ranked in the top 10 in...

    Great athletes in Pennsylvania that got in their own way and couldn't stay out of trouble.

    Football Side YaYah McGurn/Sean Burgio, RBs, Easton The only time Nick Saban has ever been at Easton Area High School to recruit was to come see YaYah for a school visit in 1999 when Saban was at Michigan State. McGurn, a 6'2 220 pound running back was coming off of a 1,000 yard junior season...

    Parkland Does the Unlikely (Hoops)

    Wild that was 20 years ago. Also, that 2004 Parkland team wasn’t even the D11 champs - they lost three times to Whitehall (regular season, conference championship, district championship). Whitehall got knocked out in state quarters, their best player was Jason Greene, who led the NCAA in assists...

    Parkland Does the Unlikely (Hoops)

    I did read that Roman had three starters ineligible for the postseason as transfers, which really shifts the dynamic of the team. But they locked up Bethea on Tuesday, I think he only had ten points and got in foul trouble early. Parkland is essentially seven guys who are 6'2-6'6, most of whom...

    Parkland Does the Unlikely (Hoops)

    Pretty wild March for the Parkland Trojans, who become the first District 11 team since Parkland in 2004 to make the PIAA Finals in the largest basketball classification. This team is coached by Eddie Ohlson, who was the point guard on that 2004 team. The obvious story in the Valley is that...

    Sean Kinney Commits to Lafayette (football)

    Didn’t follow up on this, but Kinney had a tech fall in the state finals to finish his career 125-5, with 98 pins, 4 state finals and 3 state championships. Bigger, more fun rumor apparently with Bill O’Brien at Boston College, there is a lot of interest in bringing Kinney to BC. Last I knew...

    Pine-Richland 2024

    Great performance from Vaughn Spencer this afternoon to win a state title at 172 - third at Pine-Richland and first since the early ‘80s? He’ll come out our way to Lehigh in a couple years and seems like they’re getting a good one.

    What's everyone's thought on these private school football factors like mater dei, St Thomas Aquinas, and here in PA SJP competing in the state plyoff

    Wrestler is a Cornell commit (a national power in that sport) and Fargo All American, don’t think he’s tacking on an extra sport at this point, future is pretty set.

    Best teams that didn’t win the WPIAL championship?

    In doing research to crown mythical state champs through history - 1982 North Allegheny was clearly the best team in the state, and it’s hard to find a team to crown as the state champ over them. They only gave up points in two games all season, a 17-6 win over North Hills during the season, and...

    Wrestling - Individual Postsesaon

    107- Salamone wins 4-3, gave up the first takedown, but a third period TD and rideout wins his first D11 title. 114 - Ballard needed OT to beat Dillard 5-3, way closer than I anticipated. 121 - Dillard by tech fall. Minimal drama 127 - Wagner wins 2-0 in OT. Kelly rode out the second...

    Wrestling - Individual Postsesaon

    Wrestling - Individual Postsesaon

    Finals picks, with state rankings 107: #4 Nick Salamone, Easton over #6 Emilio Albanese, Emmaus Salamone has dropped from 114 to 107 (controversially knocking out teammate Noah Fenner, who was also a top 5 wrestler at 107) and Salamone is a short list contender to win a state title. Albanese is...

    Headed into the medal round, Easton and Bethlehem Catholic are tied with 214.5 points. Nazareth is in third at 202.5. Easton leads with six finalists and nine already qualifier for Regional, and one more who can win his 5th place match and move on. Bethlehem Catholic has eleven wrestlers still...

    Any information on st Joes schedule 2024

    Saw this reposted by a WPIAL football account, but 8th graders posting commitment videos to SJP is not the look that’s going to keep people less mad. Also see that the other person who reposted it is an incoming 6’4 220 defensive lineman whose highlight video is getting tweeted out by big...

    PIAA State Duals

    Dillard beats Salamone 1-0. Salamone can’t get an escape in the final seconds of the 2nd period. He wastes a minute trying to ride in the third period, then can’t get a takedown in the last minute. Shit. Krazer saves Easton a team point only getting teched by Keanu Dillard. Kelly-Campbell...

    PIAA State Duals

    Starting at 107 Fenner techs Hower, couldn’t pin him at the end of the second before thhe buzzer and had to settle for a 16-0 win. 5-0 Easton, but that’s one less point than they’ve had in the last two match ups Dillard-Salamone up, might decide the state title right here
