I was watching Jeanette HS play Yough HS last night.
Jeanette whipped them pretty good. I heard they were saying Yough won the game last year. Jeanette looks like a pretty high calibre team.
I am in Delaware so not too familiar with Pitt area high schools, but with my Direct TV pkg I get Fox sports Pittsburgh and other local news from Steelerville central, so I get to see some great western PA hs games.
Would like to know more about the pulse of the HS football scene there. My alma mater has apretty strong team also . So many more teams in Pa though. Pretty deep talent pool to draw from.

AAAA is the largest schools ? We only had about 500 kids in my whole school then, now they have like 2000 the aresa blew up! Our team was good when we were small, and when it got big- IT BECAME A MONSTER!
Coach Bill Billings is legendary in Del. was 113-3-1 at one point.

I know this is the Pittsburgh Sports Threads, but here in Ohio at least i`m fortunate enough to be around some awesome high school games. Mentor High, who lost in the State Champ game last season, is number 8 in the state ranking, they beat no.2 St,Ignatius, friday, the stadium was sold out again, 10,400 fans. the 50/50 was worth $3516.

Anyway here is the P.A. connection to my story. The mentor QB was all state last year as a junior, and is being heavily recruited by Penn State. Also thier kicker is having a pro year, he has made FG from 58 and tied a state record with a 61 yarder last week . pen State is also after him, and probably ever other div school in the country

My high school team is in Va. Last year, we won the region and almost went to the state title. My school has been around since 2002 and last year we knocked off powerhouse Matoaca after trailing 35-7 at the half.

I know this Jeannette team you speak of, my team Wilmington Area lost to them last season in the semi finals. They are a very good team. There All State QB is named Aaron Pryor, he is one heck uva QB. He will get many offers. sad part is that he is even better in Basketball.
