North Allegheny hosted the WPIAL Team Semifinals on Wednesday afternoon at Newman Stadium.  The NA Boys team cruised to victory as they defeated Mt. Lebanon, Beaver, and Connellsville.  The NA Girls team upset #1 seed Mt Lebanon and also posted victories against Hampton and Connellsville.  Both NA teams advance to the WPIAL Team Championship Meet which will be held on Monday at Baldwin High School.

Senior distance runner Clara Savchik dominated the track winning both the 1600m and 3200m Runs.  In the field events Mikayla Logan won the Shot Put, as did Vittoria LaRosa in the Pole Vault and Casey Burton in the Long Jump.  On the boy’s side, individual event winners included Zach Ehling in the 400m Dash, Donovan Rice in the 300m Hurdles, Joey Porter in the 200m Dash, and Dan McGoey in the 3200m Run.  Ayden Owens won the High Hurdle race and the Long Jump. Field events winners included Jono Pelusi in the Pole Vault, Josh Sanders in the Triple Jump, and Richie Pajak in the High Jump.

Several Tiger athletes will either participate in the Baldwin Invitational or Pine Richland Invitational, both held on Friday.  Good luck Tigers and congratulations on advancing to the finals.
