Sewickley Academy rolls to PIAA girls soccer first round win over Conemaugh Township

OHIO TWP. — Following its first WPIAL championship in over 20 years, Sewickley Academy didn’t experience any championship hangover, with the team cruising to a 3-0 victory in the opening round of the PIAA Class 1A girls soccer championship on Tuesday, Nov. 10. “I’ve been around long enough to experience that championship hangover and it was something we talked about for a little bit, but the group responded very well and has a lot of experience,” Sewickley Academy head coach Gary Weber said. “The older players set a great tone for the younger ones, so it makes it a lot easier to coach.” Sewickley Academy (20-0) wasted little time to jump on Conemaugh Township, with forward Emma Eannarino taking the match into her own hands, putting up a hat trick in the first half to give the team a comfortable lead. The senior’s first goal came less than a minute into the contest, with Eannarino firing a shot off a Conemaugh Township (14-4) defender and into the back of the net. Eannarino’s second tally came just over 20 minutes after her first, sending a strong shot past the Conemaugh Township keeper to double Sewickley Academy’s lead. LIVE UPDATES: PIAA high
