I REALLY hope the coach at Mt. Pleasant is putting this stuff up on the whiteboard!

Mike, I know you have nothing to do with these rankings but how on earth did Clairton jump Farrell and Rochester let alone the others? So we're supposedly #1 in the state but we get a 3 seed in the playoffs and are ranked #3 in the WPIAL? These rankings are a joke...

Mr.Taylor,

I agree with you 100%. Every publication continues to underestimate the defending WPIAL AAAA Champion but all they do is win(except the game at Woody High--a 4 point loss).

that was kind of my point anon...we didnt do anything to justify jumping up to #1 over those teams.
