The 2026 boys baseball team went 11-8 during this season. Congratulations on the winning season! A huge highlight of their season was their comeback against Elizabeth Forward when they were down 11-1. A four-year starter, Nathaniel Bell, says his favorite moment of the year was hitting a home run at West Mifflin. Congratulations to the seniors, Nathaniel Bell and Jackson Pore! Good luck with all that you do!

The Lady Cougars softball team had a phenomenal season, finishing with a 12-7 winning record and advancing to the first round of playoffs. Their season began with a preseason trip to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, which provided the opportunity for the team to bond while the players worked on their skills. There were 2 seniors on the field this year, Kylee Odelli and Anna Linder. Odelli, a 4-year starter, will pursue a nursing degree at PennWest Clarion, aiming for a BSN. Linder will continue her softball career at Washington and Jefferson and plans to study biomedical science. Congratulations to the entire softball team for a fantastic season! We wish Kylee and Anna the very best of luck as they move on to their next chapter.
