You can call it staying power, or you can acknowledge that Mother Nature has not permitted enough WPIAL baseball or softball games to be played over the past week.
Whatever the case, the inaugural power rankings in district softball were so good, they remain unchanged into the second edition of the Trib 10.
Eight of the 10 teams are back in the baseball power rankings. While Franklin Regional and Riverside slipped out, Beaver and Laurel claimed their spots at Nos. 8 and 10, respectively.
Speaking of Beaver, the Bobcats’ softball team remains No. 1 while Bethel Park is still top-ranked in the baseball power rankings.
Here are the latest power rankings for 2022.
These rankings have zero classification boundaries.
