CTK 2015 – Class AA Century Conference Preview

August 23, 2015

In both 2013 and 2014, South Fayette not only reigned supreme over the Century Conference, but over the entire state of Pennsylvania in Class AA. The back-to-back PIAA champion Lions lost the catalyst to their dynamic offense, though, as Brett Brumbaugh has moved on to the next level.

WPIAL Saturday’s Scholastic Starz – Week One

September 2, 2012

What better way to conclude opening weekend of the 2012 high school football season than for the WPIAL to put on a massive light show spectacular on Saturday night.  Wait, what's that? It wasn't District 7 officials, rather Mother Nature that took center stage? Mmmm.
