The Riverside Panthers are headed to the 2A Semifinals in the WPIAL High School Football Playoffs, and they will be playing the Steel Valley Ironmen at 7:30 on the campus of North Hills.
But before they did that, they joined the Beaver County Radio Sports crew for some wings and talk on last night’s Coaches Corner. Coach Ron Sciarro was the guest of honor, and he spoke about what his team’s plan for dealing with the defending state champions would be:
This is the fourth meeting in the last two seasons between the Panthers and Ironmen, with Steel Valley winning the prior three. The last meeting was a 48-28 loss for Riverside back in Week 1.
Coverage on Beaver County Radio begins at 7:00 pm for Friday night’s game.

Conor Sheary ended overtime rather quickly, scoring 16 seconds into the frame, and giving the Penguins a 5-4 overtime victory over the Sabres on Tuesday night at PPG Paints Arena. Sheary’s 2nd career OT goal (and 2nd of the night) gives Pittsburgh their 7th straight win over Buffalo, and their 12th in the last 13.
Phil Kessel scored his 4th goal in as many games, while Sidney Crosby tallied his first goal since October 20. Patric Hornqvist also tallied for the Pens, and Matt Murray made 28 saves.
The Penguins are now 6-0-1 at home this year; one of only two teams to not lose in regulation on home ice this season (Islanders). After the game, Crosby spoke about the importance of winning at home:

Pittsburgh enters this game with a record of 5-0-1 at home, including winning their last 5 in a row at the “Paint Can”.

During the early afternoon hours of November 10, the citizens of Beaver County looked at the ground, saw the snow, and realized that winter had come early.
Later that evening, Rochester looked to the scoreboard of Peters Township, saw the score, and realized that winter had come early.
The Rams saw a 26-15 lead slip in the final minutes, and an Isaiah Winters touchdown catch with a minute on the clock sends the Jeannette Jayhawks to the 1A Semifinals with a 30-26 win on 1230 WBVP.
Bob Barrickman breaks down how the scoring went:
Rochester’s season comes to a close at 8-3.
