“Worse than ever.” “I probably won’t be coming to any games next year.” “I’m thoroughly disgusted.” Took the pulse of Pirates fans at today’s home finale. Things are bleak, to say the least. @PGSportsNow:

At Fort Cherry for the battle of the Class 1A unbeatens. No. 2 Rangers vs. Monessen. Keep an eye on Matt Sieg tonight. Penn State recruit is two TDs away from tying the all-time WPIAL record set by Clairton’s Lamont Wade and Tyler Boyd.

They combined for 73 goals last season and helped win a WPIAL title. They’ve also been competing with each another for years in their living room and backyard. Meet Ryan and Adam Moessner, the @SoccerBearcat brothers who just can’t stop scoring: https://t.co/dQh9bUc3fT

Highest-rated WPIAL girls basketball recruit (and second in the state) headed to Maryland. Averaged 23.1 points and 16.5 rebounds for Quaker Valley last season. Had over 50 offers.
Excited to announce my verbal commitment to the University of Maryland! Thank you to Power 24, SLAAM Basketball, and Prospects for giving me the opportunity to showcase my skills, and to all family and friends that have impacted me in my life and thus gotten me to where I am.🐢🐢
