August 21, 2014
When has the Allegheny Conference been able to say this: There are two Pitt recruits in the conference and one West Virginia recruit. As strange as it sounds, it is true. The Allegheny has two Pitt recruits in Kittanning receiver-tight end-linebacker Nick Bowers and Apollo-Ridge receiver-defensive back Tre Tipton, who are both seniors. The West Virginia recruit is Freeport linebacker Logan Thimons, who is a junior. All three made verbal commitments to their schools. They are certainly three of the players to watch in a conference that takes on a different look this season. Two teams from last year are out while three have moved in from different classifications.PIHL Penguins Cup Recaps – Monday, March 10th

The Jackets pulled to within one at 22-21, but could get no further than that.Hometown Volleyball Match Recap: FREEPORT YELLOWJACKETS 3 – Seton-LaSalle Rebels 0
