Explanation of the MSA Sports Cup

The MSA Sports Cup is a challenge to determine the best sports programs for the entire school year throughout the WPIAL schools in each classification, 1A, 2A,  3A, 4A, 5A and 6A.  Points are earned for the success of each Team sport in the fall, winter and spring seasons.  ONLY sports with at least 30% participation throughout the WPIAL schools are included.

For points tracking, schools are classified into one of the four classifications noted above, based on combined enrollment numbers for both boys and girls.   Enrollment numbers are re-evaluated every 2 years, and adjustments are made, as needed.  The sports that are tracked for the competition, based on the above criteria, are as follows:

*As of the 2016-2017 school year, 6 classifications will now be honored / recognized.

The Point System for previous years was as follows:

**This includes 10 points for playoff berth

*In some instances, schools have been paired together in order to provide for representation across all sports noted above.  These pairings are noted, where applicable, on the individual classification pages / tabs.
