North Allegheny’s Khiryn Boyd celebrates after intercepting a pass against Central Catholic last season.
It’s our first look at which teams have the power in WPIAL football, at least through Week Zero.
The inaugural edition of the weekly Trib 10 power rankings is top heavy with big schools.
The top two schools are the top two teams in our latest Trib HSSN Class 6A rankings.
However, after that, four of the next six teams are from Class 4A.
Here are the first Trib 10 power rankings for 2023. Teams are listed with overall record and this week’s opponent. These rankings have zero classification boundaries.
