“No Excuses”: Aliquippa Coach Mike Warfield Addresses 4A Classification, Quips’ Offseason

“We’ve just got to keep doing our thing.”

These were the words of Aliquippa head coach Mike Warfield, who in a phone interview with Matt Drzik and Greg Benedetti on the Saturday Sports Slam, responded to the recent news about Aliquippa football being forced to play up to 4A by the WPIAL & PIAA.

Warfield, while acknowledging certain aspects of the ruling that he doesn’t agree with, made it clear that his team has “no excuses” and will continue to focus on the plan put in place to succeed every year. He touted the leadership being presented by his coaching staff, and praising the work ethic of his kids year in and year out.

The Quips’ head coach also spoke about his team’s offseason plans, his thoughts on the remainder of the WPIAL & PIAA football playoffs, and his hopes on the continued upward swing of success by his student-athletes off the field.

Duck Season has officially begun as the Steelers beat the Cardinals 23-17

Steelers hang on for 23-17 victory over Cardinals
By DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer
Diontae Johnson ran for an 85-yard touchdown on a punt return and caught a pass for another score to lead the Pittsburgh Steelers over the Arizona Cardinals 23-17. Pittsburgh’s defense had three crucial interceptions in the second half to secure its seventh win over the past eight games. Arizona has lost six straight games. Rookie free agent quarterback Devlin Hodges completed 16 of 19 passes and threw a touchdown pass in his third career start. Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray threw two touchdown passes, but his three interceptions were very costly.
