Rockwood cancels JV season (and varsity)

[Coach]

Rockwood was going to try to play a JV schedule this year. Isn't happening. They are done.

Can Ridge join the WestPAC for football?

[Crimson's Ghost]

So no Rockwood football period?

[PLDragons24]

Have to feel bad for the kids that can't play because they can't get enough kids.

[Manfred]

Do they have the option of co-op w/ Somerset , Meyersdale or Berlin?

[PLDragons24]

Most teams won't co-op because you have to play up a class. It's probably to late to co-op as well. I'm not sure how it works.

[davesandstorm]

It depends where you're at enrollment wise whether you'd move up a class or not. Meyersdale would if they took on a co-op with Rockwood. Somerset and Berlin would not. Who's Meyersdale already in a co-op with for football? Also, isn't Rockwood in one with Turkeyfoot Valley already?

[cleaverstuart]

Meyersdale and Salisbury have multiple co-ops just not football only

If a program can not play their schedule for a season, they should automatically have to find a co-op for the next season.

[Big Ike]

I still would like to see Geibel in D7 maybe try to move to D5...It is 40 minutes away but they could possibly co op to form a "complete" team with Rockwood/Turkeyfoot. Guessing 12 per institution with attrition should give you a squad of 25. Get creative also maybe alternating practice sites on a weekly basis to help offset the travel.

Philipsburg also not fielding a JV team this season.
