Western Pennsylvania high school football scores: Week 1 (2024)

OUR GAME OF THE WEEK. THIS ONE HAD ALL THE MAKINGS OF A WEEK, ONE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL MATCHUP. AN OUT OF CONFERENCE RIVALRY, A 30 MINUTE RAIN DELAY AND A FOURTH QUARTER COMEBACK BY THE HOME TEAM. CENTRAL CATHOLIC UP 11. NOTHING AT THE HALF AFTER A 30 MINUTE LIGHTNING DELAY IN THE SECOND QUARTER. PINE-RICHLAND FINALLY GETS ON THE BOARD IN THE THIRD TO MAKE IT 11 TO 8, BUT WE’LL PICK THIS UP IN THE FOURTH QUARTER BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO SEE. 814 LEFT IN THE FOURTH. THE HANDOFF TO MCLANE MILLER. HE RUNS IT IN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN FOR THE RAMS TO TAKE THE LEAD 15 TO 11. LATER IN THE FOURTH, AARON STRADER WITH THE THROW TO JAY TIMMONS. IT SEALS THE DEAL FOR PINE-RICHLAND 2211 OR SO. THEY THINK. BUT DON’T COUNT OUT THE VIKINGS FOURTH AND TEN FOR CENTRAL CATHOLIC. WATCH THIS. A 68 YARD TOUCHDOWN BY BRADLEY GOMPERS. 2217 PINE-RICHLAND WITH 322 LEFT TO PLAY. 34 SECONDS LEFT TO PLAY. NOW CENTRAL CATHOLIC WITH THE BALL. FOURTH AND 19. CENTRAL IS SACKED. PINE-RICHLAND WINS IT 2217. THE FINAL. FOURTH QUARTER COMEBACK. HOW’D YOU PULL IT OFF? I JUST NONSTOP PLAYING LIKE THESE GUYS. BEEN AROUND US LONG ENOUGH NOW TO KNOW WE’RE NOT GOING TO GO DOWN IN A HOLE. IF WE GET DOWN AND WE’RE GOING TO FIGHT BACK AND JUST START TO EXECUTE. A LENGTHY RAIN DELAY THERE EARLY ON, 30 MINUTE LONG. HOW DO YOU KIND OF COMBAT THAT? YOU GUYS WEREN’T EVEN ABLE TO SCORE UNTIL THE THIRD QUARTER? YEAH, I MEAN, MAYBE WE NEEDED THAT RAIN DELAY TO REGROUP AND JUST CALM OURSELVES DOWN A LITTLE BIT. I THINK WE CAME OUT LACK OF ENERGY EARLY ON, BUT SECOND HALF HERE, THEY STARTED TO GET SOME EXCITEMENT. IT’S THE FIRST TIME WE’VE GONE TWO. AND OH, IN YOUR TENURE HERE, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE TEAM? AND AFTER SUCH A STRONG START? IT JUST MEANS WE WON TWO GAMES. WE GOT TO COME BACK READY NEXT WEEK AGAIN. GET READY FOR SENECA VALLEY AND THEN CONFERENCE PLAY AFTER THAT. PINE-RICHLAND WILL HEAD ON THE ROAD TO FACE SENECA VALLEY NEXT WEEK. REPORTIN
