Friday Night I was in Russell, Pa. to watch the highly anticipated matchup between visiting Cambridge Springs high school and the hometown heroes the Eisenhower Knights. The Blue Devils came in supporting a 1-1 record, while the Knights came in at 3-1. Both teams have a very run-heavy offense which made me believe this could […]

September 18, 2021 | TC Jones
Though the Cochranton Cardinals (3-0) walked off the field at Cardinal Stadium with a 34-14 victory over Eisenhower (2-1), the final score wasn’t indicative of how close the game was late in the 4th quarter. In fact, it seemed like the Knights were poised to steal the victory away from the Cardinals late in the […]

A great tribute to the Sharpsville/West Middlesex teams merger in pictures @SHSCoverage @WMASD_Athletics
September 11, 2021 | PFN Staff
The meeting between Greenville and Sharpsville/West Middlesex players was an improbable game in June of this year, but a couple emergency school board meetings pulled off the improbable when it was determined that West Middlesex hopes of more players joining the team before fall never materialized.

Jack Martinec’s Four Touchdowns Lead Cochranton Past Seneca // @CochrantonPride @_senecafootballPride
September 10, 2021 | TC Jones
Though senior runningback Jack Martinec’s four touchdowns were the storyline, it was the Cochranton Cardinal’s dominant offensive and defensive line play that made the 41-8 victory over the Seneca Bobcats (0-3) look easy. Though the Cardinals (2-0) were undersized in almost every position, you never would have known it by the way Cochranton’s physicality imposed […]

September 4, 2021 | Phil Myers
Up in Albion a legend has it that wildcats in the area defended their territory with a phenomenal ferociousness.
