We're going to keep our preseason coverage going with a series of rapid-fire previews, focusing now on the Midwestern Conference in Class AA. Last year the WPIAL champions in this classification came from the MAC, which isn't anything new. It's usually one of the toughest sections in the district. What is new is the fact that biennial WPIAL realignment has left it with eight teams.
We're going to keep our preseason coverage going with a series of rapid-fire previews, focusing now on the Allegheny Conference in Class AA.

The most dominant team in the history of that section, along with a typical playoff challenger, are both gone, so, to the casual observer, biennial WPIAL realignment has sucked the fun out of following it. However, with several teams now having a chance to follow in the footsteps of Frazier and end playoff droughts, there may yet be a story for which to root.
