For the first time since 1979, the varsity girls’ basketball team is on to the second round of the WPIAL playoffs.

After routing the Plum Mustangs at home in the first round, North Hills will face the top-seeded Oakland Catholic Eagles on Friday night in the WPIAL Quarterfinals. The Indians will have their work cut out for them against an undefeated opponent, but their 29-point win on Tuesday shows that they’re here to compete.

Friday’s action begins at 6:00, as North Hills and Oakland Catholic meet at the Fox Chapel high school. As a reminder, this is a WPIAL contest, so tickets will need to be purchased via GoFan. Student tickets are $5 online, while adult tickets are $7. Visit the GoFan website to get your tickets.

If you are unable to attend the game, you can catch the action via live stream by visiting the Trib HSSN website.

Good luck, girls!
