Aliquippa’s request for a preliminary injunction was granted by Beaver County Judge James Ross, which means that the Quips will stay in Class 4A for the 2024 football season.

The ruling came after the school district filed a lawsuit seeking to block Aliquippa’s move up to Class 5A under the PIAA competitive balance rule, citing concerns about health and safety.

Delores Jean Feltrop Nahar, born on December 9, 1942, passed peacefully on Wednesday morning, May 15, 2024.

Delores was preceded in death by her first husband, Melbourn Feltrop in 1986 and is survived by their oldest son, Kenneth Feltrop (Lori), their children: Zachary Feltrop (Ericka) and Chelsea Heranic (Steven); also by their youngest son, Ernest Feltrop and his children: Ashley Statterfield (Joseph), Jessica Feltrop, Jacob Feltrop, and Luke Feltrop.
She was preceded in death also by her husband Albert Nahar in 2021 and is survived by their son Kyle Nahar along with Albert’s sons: Albert Nahar Jr. and Aaron Nahar. Being a mother was her greatest pride. She was very proud of her grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews, and great-nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved truly and deeply.
Delores was a member of Union Ridge Bible Baptist Church in Rogers, Ohio and was recognized in her community as someone who cared endlessly for her family and her neighbors.
