Steelton Highspire 2022 openers.
The Rollers hope to rebound from an off year that saw them go 8-3 following their 10-0 title run of 2021 by beefing up the schedule their first two games. They open with last year’s 1A WPIAL champ and state semifinal loser Bishop Canevin (13-2) of Pittsburgh (Westwood) at the Peach Bowl Showcase in Chambersburg on Aug 26th.
Week-2 sees them in the home opener (Steelton) against District-8’s Westinghouse, last year’s District 5/8 champ who finished 10-2. The Bulldogs have one of the rising stars of Western PA in head coach Donte Green going 8-4, 7-0 and 10-2 his first three years at the helm. Last year’s City Title was their third straight. They also feature Qb Keyshawn Morsillo (6-1, 190) who finished last year with 1551py and 778ry with 33 Tds. No worries, the Rollers counter with Qb Alex Erby (6-4, 210, jr) with 3272py at 83%, 161 of 193! This is good news as they often have trouble finding non-conf opponents. Note; their first undefeated season came in 1898.
