The power-ranked teams flexed their muscles again in the second weekend of the WPIAL football playoffs with nine of the 10 winning and advancing to Semifinals Friday or Championship Saturday.
The only team ousted was the team that was on top of the Trib 10 for the first month-plus of the season: Aliquippa.
Expect a major shakeup this week, though, with three head-to-head showdowns, plus only 10 WPIAL teams will still be practicing after the smoke clears in Week 12.
