Easton and Pennsbury 2026 and 2027

[RoverNation05]

Just announced today that Easton will renew their rivalry with Pennsbury games with non-conference games in 2026 and 2027. Easton previously played Pennsbury from 2010-2013, and of course both were members of the Big 8 from 1964 to 1975.

Easton continues to add fun, historically meaningful games (cue convo about the 1968 #1 vs #2 game between these programs) to their schedule with the new conference set-up and non-conference flexibility. Would love to see them get Neshaminy back on the docket to to round out those 60s/70s match ups.

Good stuff!

Need more D1 and D11 match-ups - add D3 to the mix as well.

Great to see! No matter their talent level in a particular season, Coach Snyder's team will bring it physically, on every play.

Question from an uneducated Western PA guy- I was looking at the Pennsbury football website- seems to include an impressive history- but I see references to SOL National Championship? What does that mean?

SOL National = Suburban One League National Division

There is also American and Continental Divisions in the SOL.

Yes, Pennsbury has had some great teams over the years. Recently they have played in two eastern finals, losing both. In the 2006 east final Pennsbury lost to Bethlehem Liberty 45-38 in 4 OT's. Maybe one of the more underrated playoff games in PIAA history. I was there, it had everything.

In 2014, Pennsbury played SJP in an absolute monsoon at NE HS. The 37-7 final was predictable.

I will always cherish beating Pennsbury in '78 and '79 to win the LBCL championship at Council Rock. Chuck Kane and Walt Snyder had a nice rivalry in the 70's. Two hall of fame coaches.

The 1971 Pennsbury-Neshaminy game is still one the biggest games to be ever played in eastern PA. I was there, 15,000 at Neshaminy. Skins had 5 all-state players, and held on 21-17 to cap an 11-0 season.
