My wpial sleeper next year is Seneca Valley They were playing sophomores all over the field. Wpial semi finalist and they return almost their whole team. I think the team to watch next year is Penn hills.

Can also seeing them play up to 4A because frankly a Woodland Hills- derry section game doesn’t exactly seem like it will go well for one party.

Maybe not state champ favorite but I can see them being the wpial favorite. I think if they drop to 3a they will just dominate. I agree that Woodland Hills coaching staff is not great, but they have competed with the best in 5a despite their coaching. Section 4 will be especially competitive, with Cocalico, Lampeter-Strasburg, Berks Catholic, and Wyomissing all having appeared in the state semifinals and/or state finals since 2017.ĭecember 17th, 2021 at 9:12 h. Hopefully that improves the overall quality of league play in the area. The league will now have 38 teams, mostly in 4A, 5A & 6A. That’s a good combination for another WPIAL title in 3A from Woodland Hills - or from whomever else manages to come out of the Pittsburgh area in 2022.Ī separate point that I haven’t seen discussed in the forum recently: next year Berks County (which includes Wilson, which is already in the league, plus Governor Mifflin, Exeter, Berks Catholic, Wyomissing, etc.) will be joining the Lancaster-Lebanon League. No non-boundary school has even appeared in the final in that class since Lancaster Catholic way back in 2011. The WPIAL has great 3A public programs and many of the 3A Catholic schools in the East have been playing up in 4A. It follows that the WPIAL favorite will probably be the favorite to win the state title in that class, again. Just wanted to point out that the WPIAL winner has won 5 of the 6 state titles in the new 3A… and if you extend that run to include the old 2A, the WPIAL winner has made it to Hershey 10 straight years in that class and won 7 of the last 9 state titles, with those state titles coming from 5 different programs.
