2015-2016 MSA SPORTS GIRLS BASKETBALL ALL-NETTERS
March 25, 2016
The Girls All Netters all-star squad this season is certainly a sizeable one. While guards often dominate all-star teams, the first team of the All Netters has four players at least 5-11, including three who are 6-1 or taller and one who is 6-4. The team is picked by the MSA Sports staff from all WPIAL teams. Three of the first-team members won WPIAL championships. One of the second team members scored 1,000 points this season – as a freshman.

In a WPIAL title game rematch, the Ellis School Tigers won their second straight Class AA crown with a 1-0 triumph over the Shady Side Academy Indians. The game was very similar to last year’s title tilt and again came down to a second half goal by Ellis School as the deciding factor. The Tigers had the advantage in penalty corners, 9-3, and had three consecutive corner opportunities to end the first half. Ellis was unable to capitalize on their corner tries before halftime and the game remained scoreless deep into the second half.2015 WPIAL GIRLS FIELD HOCKEY RESULTS

The title is the second for the Foxes in school history and first since 2012. Meanwhile the Tigers enjoy their sixth WPIAL field hockey championship and second straight golden stick. Ellis School won back-to-back titles in 2002 and 2003 as well. Here are ALL the results from the 2015 WPIAL Girls Field Hockey Playoffs. 2015 WPIAL GIRLS FIELD HOCKEY CLASS AAA CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:
A Tigers Tale: North Allegheny and Ellis Win WPIAL Field Hockey Gold
October 29, 2014
The Class AA top-seeded Ellis School Tigers won their first WPIAL crown since 2010 with a 1-0 victory over the defending Class AA champion Shady Side Academy Indians at Newman Stadium at North Allegheny High School on Tuesday night. Ellis School claimed its fifth overall title thanks in large part to the play of senior midfielder Mackenzie Haney who scored the only goal of the night with 4:25 remaining in the first half. Haney was a force offensively in the opening half, and turned her attention toward protecting the lead in the second half as the Tigers rarely permitted the Indians a good look inside the circle.MSA Sports Top Ten – WPIAL Girls Soccer – 10/09/2012
