We got more matchups to cover this week, and this time I’ll be heading out to Philadelphia for the first time to cover two District 12 matchups. Let’s take a look at those matchups, the first one being Conwell-Egan (2-4) visiting Neumann-Goretti (3-3), and the second one being the #2 ranked team in the state La Salle College (4-1) and the #4 ranked team in the state St. Joseph’s Prep (2-3).

10/28/17 – Neumann-Goretti (20) @ (13) Conwell-Egan

10/29/16 – Conwell-Egan (1) @ (FFT) Neumann-Goretti

These two teams have both been “top dogs” in District 12 the last couple years. Since 2016, Conwell-Egan has won three district titles, while Neumann-Goretti has won five. Neumann-Goretti also made it all the way to the 3A state title game back in 2022 before losing to Belle Vernon. This series has been pretty evenly matched in that span as well, with Neumann-Goretti holding a 6-4 record over Conwell-Egan, however this year seems to be a bit of a rebuilding year for the Eagles, starting 2-4 through the first six games which is their worst start to a season since 2019. Ultimately I believe that the Saints have the upper hand in this matchup and should come away with the victory, avenging their loss from a year ago.

Score Prediction

Conwell-Egan – 14

Neumann-Goretti – 28

10/2/21 – St. Joseph’s Prep (21) @ (28) La Salle College

10/17/20 – La Salle College (14) @ (38) St. Joseph’s Prep

11/9/19 – La Salle College (7) @ (52) St. Joseph’s Prep

This is seemingly always been one of the most anticipated games of the year every season, and its for good reason too. La Salle College and St. Joseph’s Prep have met in the District 12 title game every year since 2012 except for 2020, a staggering twelve times in thirteen years. Despite the number of meetings, the series has been dominated in that span by St. Joseph’s Prep who has won 21 of the 26 meetings between these two teams since 2012. This one should be another dogfight, I expect it to be close like it was last year, however I do believe Tim Roken’s Hawks have the upper hand in this matchup.

Score Prediction

La Salle College – 24

St. Joseph’s Prep – 30
