Carlynton wrestling coach Ed White welcomes back an experienced crew for the 2024-25 season that includes Henry Barbisch, a place winner at last year's WPIAL Tournament.
The Carlynton boys basketball team jumped to a big early lead and never looked back on the way to an easy win over Avella Friday night. In girls action, Sto-Rox had little trouble with Carlynton in a 46-22 win.
All four West Hills area high school girls basketball teams that were in action Thursday night posted easy wins in their respective section debuts. Sto-Rox, Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, Montour and Bishop Canevin all proved victorious.
Montour alumnus Zach Tournay has a young team compared with last year's squad and he's counting on some juniors to provide much-needed leadership as Spartans make the jump to Class 3A.
Our Lady of the Sacred Heart handled Sto-Rox in a battle of West Hills area boys high school basketball teams Tuesday night. In other games, Carlynton's boys came from behind to win and Carlynton's girls had an easy time of it in their win over Leechburg.
Both the Montour and Our Lady of the Sacred Heart girls basketball teams came up winners Monday night, but the Moon girls and Bishop Canevin boys wound up on the losing end of things.
Moon Area needed an extra four minutes to top host Central Catholic at the Vikings' tournament Saturday while OLSH and Montour claimed victories. Carlynton went to overtime but came up short against Eden Christian.
