Upper St. Clair’s Charlie Bywalski celebrates his touchdown catch in the final minute against Bethel Park on Oct. 11.
It wasn’t like playing Yahtzee, where players shake the dice, dump them and see what comes up, but there was some major movement at the top of the Trib 10 this week.
Two big-time showdowns shook up the power rankings and when the dust cleared, a third different team sits atop the weekly rankings.
With North Allegheny coming back to knock Pine-Richland out of the top spot and previous No. 1 Aliquippa losing a heartbreaker to Montour, the deck has been shuffled among the top eight teams.
The new No. 1 team is undefeated Upper St. Clair heading into the final weekend of the WPIAL regular season.
