Chicks Picks – Week Two – 2012

Welcome to Week 2 of the high school football season. Chick’s Picks dreads making her predictions the first few weeks of the season. Her crystal ball is usually still a bit cloudy from the off-season, making it difficult to foresee accurate picks. The boss does not want to hear about a lackluster performance from the crystal ball, however, so the pressure is on from Day 1.

Big Game Hunting for Week Two 2012

September 5, 2012

Week One was a scorcher, we saw some big time upsets, some tremendous debuts, and some confirmations of things most of us suspected would be true for the 2012 campaign. One thing I think all of us non-head coaches can agree on, is that WPIAL realignment bringing us very meaningful games at the outset of the season is a huge success. Stay hydrated, week two looks just as hot in the big games department, here’s hoping the temps are a little more football-like as we go Big Game Hunting! AAAA - Northern 8 Conference

WPIAL Saturday’s Scholastic Starz – Week One

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. Oh well, the Saturday list shrunk from five to four games because of the storms that rolled through Saturday night, but those four standouts were able to shine bright, even on a cloud-filled day.Kyle Whipple & Kevin Faulk - East Allegheny

Chicks Picks – Week One – 2012

August 30, 2012

Welcome to Week 1 of the high school football season. The offseason passed by rather quickly for Chick’s Picks. Shortly after last season’s championship games, she began training to run her first 5K. This, after rehabbing from ankle surgery, Chick’s Picks thought would be a lofty goal to set for herself.That chilly March morning arrived, and accomplish that goal she did. It certainly was not pretty, but nonetheless, Chick’s Picks crossed the finish line. Now nearing her fifth 5K this weekend, she approaches each race with the same mentality—crossing the finish line is the most important part.

CTK 2012 – Pittsburgh City League Preview

To make the playoffs in the Pittsburgh City League, teams must finish in the top four spots. With the size of the City League now, only two teams will NOT make the playoffs.

That leaves the City League with only six teams. The league joins the WPIAL in some sports this year, but City League officials wanted to remain intact for football. University Prep won the City League title in its first year of existence last year. Here is a look at the City League:
