Pine-Richland softball team's playoff trip ends in heartbreak

Written by Nick Tolomeo on .

Last season Pine-Richland finished in fourth place in Class AAAA Section 3, just one spot away from a postseason berth. It was a heart-breaking way to end a career for the eight seniors on the team.

Pine-Richland baseball emerges as title threat

Written by Brad Everett on .

Brad Everett's feature on the Pine-Richland baseball team:

 

2013 0509 PR McCarthy"Unlike the previous two seasons, no Class AAAA team will enter the WPIAL baseball playoffs with an undefeated record.

Pine-Richland came pretty darned close, though.

The Rams will be among the favorites to win the WPIAL championship when the postseason gets underway next week. They own a 15-4 record, with the four defeats coming by a combined five runs. That's not bad at all, considering the Rams fell short of making the playoffs a year ago."
