Undefeated Mt. Lebanon Earns Top Seed

The Mt. Lebanon girls basketball team (22-0) claimed its initial prize for an undefeated season by landing the No. 1 seed in the WPIAL tournament, which begins Friday at various sites.

In one of the winningest combined seasons in Class AAAA history, the girls were joined in the playoffs by the Mt. Lebanon boys (18-4), who claimed a No. 3 seed after sharing the Section 4-AAAA title with Peters Township.

"You have to beat four good teams to win this thing," Mt. Lebanon boys coach and former Pitt player Joe David said. "There is no easy road, so my attitude is that we're happy to be here. We look forward to playing those teams. If you're going to be a champion, you have to prove it."

Didn't this team have to pay for its own bus fare to get to the championship game?
The Board is too busy paying for Mellon turf and a new field house fordirty MRSA kids to afford the girl's basketball team.
Maybe a basketball Mom should run for school board and get this corrected!
