Greensburg Central Catholic are reigning section and WPIAL champs — but Springdale have been neck-and-neck with the Centurians this season, claiming a share of the section title. Bishop Canevin completed an impressive 11-0-1 section campaign, and could be a team to watch in this tournament. Steel Valley’s Kelsey Salopek has been a scoring machine to lead the way to another Section title, but Chartiers-Houston have alslo had an outstanding season, holding the only win in section vs SV this Fall.

This year, Freedom, a high scoring outfit which have won a pair of WPIAL titles in recent years (2016 and 2018) are right back in the mix, finishing 10-0 in section (12-3 overall).
