The winter sports regular season is over, and we are on to the postseason. Below is an update on our teams as they get set for playoff action.

Swimming & Diving

The swimming and diving teams hosted North Allegheny last week and both lost competitive meets. The boys ended the regular season 7-6-1 (3-3 in the section), and the girls finished 6-8 (1-5 in the section). WPIAL Championships begin later this month.

Wrestling

The varsity wrestling team sent two wrestlers to the WPIAL Girls’ Individual Wrestling Championships over the weekend, and junior JoAnna Saad earned second place in her weight class. With the strong performance, she clinched a spot in the PIAA West Regional Championships!

Junior high wrestling picked up a win over Gateway last Monday, then participated in the D7 Tournament over the weekend to conclude its season.

Girls’ Basketball

Girls’ basketball did not play last week but found out on Monday that they earned the eight seed in the 5A WPIAL Girls’ Basketball playoffs. Accordingly, they will host Plum in the first round this week. 

Boys’ Basketball

Boys’ basketball beat Pine-Richland in the final game of the regular season. On Monday, they learned that they are the nine seed in the 5A Boys’ Basketball playoffs and will travel to Fox Chapel to take on the Foxes for the third straight postseason.
