It’s Opening Day in WPIAL Soccer!

For the 2023 High School soccer season, we will be using this forum to provide updates, scores, highlights, share your tweets and more from each day of action across the district.  The Pittsburgh Soccer Now team will be providing coverage at the JRK Classic hosted by Pine-Richland, which will bring together 12 boys teams, including 10 WPIAL schools and another two non-WPIAL schools (Wheeling Park and Kiski School).

Matt Popchock will be providing the live broadcast on PSN’s YouTube Channel of host Pine-Richland as they take on Wheeling Park.

Earlier this week, on the season kickoff edition of the Kids on the Pitch Podcast, Pine-Richland’s Head Coach Jordan Wiegand joined Matt and John Krysinsky.
