At this point in past seasons, the buzz about District 10’s Class A champion has been all about Kennedy Catholic.
With the Golden Eagles soaring to Class 6A, D-10 crowned a new champion in Class A, the Jamestown Muskies.
And the Muskies have found themselves in the crosshairs of the Monessen Greyhounds.
The Greyhounds (15-9) and Muskies (12-11) will meet Friday in a PIAA first-round matchup at Edinboro University. Tip-off is set for 6:30 p.m. at McComb Field House.
