CLARION, Pa. (D9Sports.com) — In an unanticipated matchup, it’s an all-Allegheny Mountain League final in the District 9 Class A Championship game at Clarion University’s Memorial Stadium Friday night at 7 p.m.
The fifth-seeded Brockway Rovers (7-5) take on the sixth-seeded Kane Wolves (8-3) in a final that’s never had two seeds this low meet for the title. Since the eight-team format was instituted in 2004, only two teams seeded fifth or lower have gotten this far — Port Allegany (6) in 2010 and Clarion (7) in 2008 — and neither won the title.
Either way, this year’s winner will become the lowest seed to ever win a Class A title.
Go figure.
It’s the second time that the Rovers and Wolves meet this year. Back on a wet night in Week 6 in Kane, the Wolves edged the Rovers 9-7 as kicker Dillon Mattis kicked a short field goal with eight seconds left in the game.
