North Catholic’s team colors are scarlet and gold.
However it was a good mix of silver and gold that has the Trojans repeating as HSSN Trib Cup Class 3A champions in 2020-21.
North Catholic won WPIAL gold in girls soccer, girls volleyball and girls cross country while bringing home silver in boys and girls basketball as well as boys volleyball.
The HSSN Trib Cup is a yearlong competition to determine the top WPIAL sports program in each classification. It awards points for section or conference championships, district and state playoff berths and district and state championships and runners-up.

It wasn’t just those title game teams that helped North Catholic win in Class 3A. The Trojans also scored points in football, boys soccer, boys and girls tennis, boys golf, hockey, baseball, softball, boys lacrosse and boys and girls track.
