High School Football, Week 4

September 24, 2021 11:50 pm

Davoun Fuse threw a touchdown pass, caught a scoring pass and ran for a third score leading Wash High past Chartiers-Houston, handing the Bucs their first loss of the season. McGuffey and Charleroi posted easy wins in the 2A Century Conference.

Canon-McMillan had little trouble with Baldwin, keeping hold on a 6A playoff position.

McKeesport rolled by Trinity, staying in a tie with Belle Vernon atop the Big Eight Conference.

Burgettstown became the first Washington/Greene County team to forfeit a game due to COVID-19 this season. Friday morning, district superintendent Stephen Puskar said, “After considering where we stand from a covid-19 health standpoint, an injury perspective, and a preparation perspective (preparation that was stunted because of the unfolding covid-related events) we are exercising caution and withdrawing from this evening’s scheduled football game against Rochester.” The week began with one positive case but that number has increased since. Burgettstown hopes to be able to return next week for a home game with Shenango. The Blue Devils drop to 2-2, 0-2.

Elsewhere in 1A: Our Lady of the Sacred Heart downed Ft. Cherry, the Rangers first loss in the Big Seven. In the Tri-County South, West Greene blanked Avella, Carmichaels handled Bentworth, Monessen celebrated homecoming with a shutout of Jeff-Morgan and California got by Mapletown.
