Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

I think if Mt Carmel or Seliensgrove plays in the West they would be some tough outs. That’s regular season play. No doubt.  I dont mean to say there is no good small school football in eastern, pa.  All I meant Is I feel the caliber of football overall is better in western, pa.  Simple number I ou...

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

Not sure what anyone is talking about here...   1. We’ve only had 6 classifications for two years now and Steel Valley is the only champion.  That is a district 7 team.   2.  If you look at a map of the districts and split the state in half, your western PA districts consist of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10...

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

Before 6 classifications which I’ve said several times Amazing how selective people are just so they can argue. A. It’s my opinion and B. It’s a fact that there are far fewer 2A schools in the east now.

Re: AAA Final: Quaker Valley vs. Middletown

Manfred, I'd agree. He's not even on Jurkovec's radar, but he's pretty good. Their team speed, including him, is great. Very physical football team too. I think this is one of the better games honestly.

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

I don't deny S.C. being very good. Their program is second to none in the state. 16 appearances, 7 state titles. You can't argue they are good. All I'm saying is the level of competition they have throughout the year is not as great as is what is seen in the West. Does that mean they are not good, n...

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

S.C. is the exception, I said that, but the east over all is weaker. There are fewer small schools so it’s going to happen that way regardless. I believe even district 6 plays through the eastern side of the bracket now that we have 6 classifications and they certainly aren’t eastern. There just are...

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

No doubt Steel Valley was special, but it is just a simple fact that the east is very weak in regards to small school football only bc the schools are much larger.  Again, Southern Columbia is a flat out power house program, but those guys aren’t putting up those numbers playing in the WPIAL or muc...

Re: AA Final: Wilmington vs. Southern Columbia

Honestly not trying to discredit S.C. because they have a great pedigree and tradition, but you have to also consider the fact that the competition in classes 1-3 even 4 to some degree is not as great in the east than it is in the west. There are just far more small schools in the west. Hence all th...
