The first three rounds of the 2025 PIAA boys basketball playoffs are in the books, and the WPIAL is trying to make history.

District 7 is guaranteed a spot in the Class 3A and 2A state championship game, and has one team left in each of the other four classifications.

Because of a previous commitment in the Giant Center schedule, this year’s Road to Hershey is spread out over three weeks instead of two.

So the teams still alive have a week before the fourth round and another week before the final round.

The elite eight boys basketball teams still alive for state gold include Upper St. Clair in 6A, Chartiers Valley in 5A, North Catholic in 4A, South Allegheny and Aliquippa in 3A, Greensburg Central Catholic and Sewickley Academy in 2A and Neighborhood Academy in A.

Here are the sites and times for the state semifinals on Friday and Saturday, along with the results through the quarterfinals in the 2025 PIAA basketball playoffs.
