The WPIAL let four Class A football teams flip their Week 9 nonconference opponents to create better matchups.

Now, on Oct. 25, Riverview will play at Chartiers-Houston and Sto-Rox hosts Imani Christian.

The WPIAL updated the schedule this week.

Riverview was initially paired with Sto-Rox while Chartiers-Houston played Imani Christian.

“All involved though it was more competitively balanced,” WPIAL executive director Tim O’Malley said.

Riverview lost 70-6 to Sto-Rox last season. Chartiers-Houston lost 54-0 to Imani Christian.

The nonconference games do not impact WPIAL playoff qualifying.
