New PIAA Classifications

[CRSOCCR]

The new classifications are out for the next two years, and CR will be (A) class for this cycle. That means they will be in with all ofthe District 5 teams except for Bedford and Windber will remain (AA). We will miss playing the schools in the 5/6 districts, but it will be interesting competing against D-5 teams in the playoffs.

wow...when did this happen? i'm kind of shocked! CR will actually be playing against the teams they play in the regular season!!! i definitely think this is good for them.

[CRSOCCR]

I liked playing in the AA class, it made for some very good playoff games against some tough teams, but I am sure the D-5 playoffs will be even more exciting because we will have played these teams at least once and know each other well. Here are the classifications from the PIAA webpage.

215 A Forbes Road High School 5
204 A North Star High School 5

i guess this won't change their schedule at all? maybe get to see CT in the regular season? i always wanted to play them back in high school, that was when they were the cream of the crop from 5 A, not sure if they are anymore.

I think this is good but will cr still get to play bedford?

[CRSOCCR]

Yes, they should still be on the schedule, but all soccer teams will go down to just 18 games next year.

[sparky]

Oh so we will not have a 20 game regular season?

[CRSOCCR]

All soccer teams will only have 18 games next year, so some rivalry games may be lost to scheduling conflicts.

[sparky]

But will that also make season shorter. right?

[Gunner18]

no, less games does not mean a shorter season.
