What is really amazing is seeing there were only eight 6A teams in the WPIAL alignment this season and a combined 51 teams in 2A and 1A. Enrollments have shrunk big-time in western Pa.

Depends on the location. If they're in a relatively urban area, it might be an option. Some small schools near me are located in areas so sparsely populated that it would be impractical to consolidate them, primarily due to transportation considerations. And most redistricting proposals end up being very controversial.

The high school and stadium sit right on 28 next to the river. Usually those small rural high schools make the PIAA playoffs and run smack into a powerhouse like Farrell and Clairton.

I don't mind the "play up" rule but at what point do they stop moving up? As some have pointed out, this is a 2A school by population and its not a private school with a wide geographic reach like a Central Catholic or Cathedral Prep.

I'd be interested in seeing the results of the competitive balance rules being applied to wrestling and which programs would be forced to move from AA to AAA. I noticed they only apply to football and basketball.
I'm not sure it would have the desired effect in wrestling though, unless they're trying to destroy some of the top AA programs. The competition leap in that sport is massive.

I think you can pay to watch PCN online too.
