TIGERS' DOMINATING YEAR EARNS NA
ANOTHER MSA SPORTS CUP
North Allegheny has won
every MSA Sports Cup Class AAAA championship, but you could say the
title they won in the 2012-2013 school year was perfect. There are 20
sports in which schools can earn points in the competition and for the
first time in ten years, a school earned points in ALL of them.
North Allegheny
scored a mind-numbing and record 1,115 points this year, 'edging'
runner-up Peters Township by a mere 635 points. Mount Lebanon finished
third, Canon-McMillan fourth and Hempfield fifth. The rest of the top
ten was Upper St. Clair, Bethel Park, Latrobe, Gateway and Fox Chapel.
Where do you start
with the sports year that North Allegheny enjoyed? In the fall, they
captured WPIAL gold in boys cross country and district and state gold in
football. Then in the winter season, more gold came in both WPIAL boys
and girls swimming along with a PIHL and Pa Cup state championship in
ice hockey. The golden season for the Tigers concluded in the spring
with a WPIAL and PIAA state crown in boys volleyball, District 7
championships in baseball and boys track & field and district runner-up
silver in softball and boys tennis.
In all, the Year of
the Tigers delivered eight district championships and three state crowns
to North Allegheny High School and helped them cruise to a tenth MSA
Sports Cup in ten years, thus concluding a decade of excellence at NAHS.
FIVE TIGERS RECEIVE ALL-STATE
LAURELS
The accolades keep
rolling in for the PIAA champion North Allegheny Boys Volleyball Team.
In addition to a state title, five Tigers have been named to the
Pennsylvania Volleyball Coaches Association Class AAA All-State Team.
Those selected include seniors Suyash Fulay, Tommy Keisling,
Joe Murphy, Justin Zweig and junior Brendan Brown.
