Canon-McMillan beat Baldwin but Norwin’s win over Hempfield eliminated the 6A Big Macs. Peters Township’s win over Trinity clinched a share of the 5A section title for the Indians and, coupled with Connellsville win over Albert Gallatin, eliminated the Hillers. Ringgold’s loss drops the 4A Rams one game back of the final playoff spot with three games remaining. McGuffey’s loss to Waynesburg creates a must-win game for the 3A Highlanders. Charleroi topped Brownsville and will clinch a 3A spot with one more win. Carmichaels, Bentworth, California, Beth-Center, Burgettstown had all clinched 2A berths.
