Re: Holding

There are many rules in HS football that are not the same as the NFL or the NCAA. Just like personal fouls. They are automatic first downs (against the defense) in the NFL and NCAA.

Re: Has anyone seen Clairton yet this year?

Re: How Far Can MU Go?

MU can play with anybody in District 6 AA. Schedule and lack of seed points may cause a lower seed come playoff time. Biggest problem with the team is eliminating mistakes. You can't put the ball on the ground repeatedly against quality competition. As for jumping conferences / leagues, talk to any ...
