District 5 Playoff Thread

Can any of them beat Clairton?

Negative, even without Wade

It will be Ridge over Westinghouse in AA. Berlin has not been playing well enough to beat anyone decent. Ridge has been playing very well lately. Everyone on their schedule was a bigger school than them except Everett. Beating Bellefonte and Tyrone in 5 days last week was impressive. They could make a good run in states. They will have most likely have Kane then Wilmington if they win that.

I'm a Ridge fan and I would love to see them make it deep in to the state playoffs, but I don't think it will happen. I can see them winning D-5/8, but even that is not a given with the way this years team has varied in how it plays each week. I think they are still too young yet. Even their team that won 10 games a couple years ago didn't make it after winning the district title and that team was pretty talented and senior heavy. I think with all the playing time the underclassmen have gotten this year and the fact that they will return every starter next year bodes well for higher hopes next season

well once every ten years

Why is the Class A championship on a Thursday?

The change to 6 classes should help the d5 teams have more of a chance. AA champ won't have to play Karns City. A champ wouldn't face Clairton until semis. Although Farrell from d10 is always tough also.
