OLSH Wins 1st WPIAL Football Championship 28-6 Over Rochester

(Matt Drzik/Beaver County Radio)

For Our Lady Of The Sacred Heart, it’s a feeling they’ve never felt before.

For the Rochester Rams, it’s a feeling of deja vu.

Like Week 3 of the season, the Rams couldn’t figure out Dan Bradley’s defense as the OLSH Chargers held off Rochester’s running attack en route to a comfortable 28-6 victory in the WPIAL 1A Championship at Heinz Field. For OLSH (12-1), it’s their first football championship in the nine years of their football program. Rochester’s strong season comes to an unfortunate end at 11-2; both losses coming at the hands of the Chargers.

OLSH will have a bye week before playing in the PIAA semifinals.
