The Big Macs got there by beating North Allegheny (82-68), West Allegheny (107-42), Uniontown (102-48) and Hampton (119-31) in Wednesday's first round at North Allegheny.
Against North Allegheny, Canon-McMillan swept the three relay races and got a pair of first-place finishes from Nick Gibson (1,600, 800). North Allegheny won all the field events except the long jump.
