Western Beaver knocks off Steel Valley in WPIAL 2A football quarterfinals

Ron Busby couldn’t stop smiling. The Western Beaver head coach has done a song and dance with Steel Valley the last four years of his coaching tenure. For the past three years, the Ironmen have sent the Golden Bears packing from the WPIAL Class 2A playoffs. However, that changed on Friday night. Busby and his Golden Beavers snagged an 8-6 victory at Fox Chapel High School against their longtime foe. The win brought smiles upon all Western Beaver coaches, players and fans alike. “A lot of history in this rivalry,” Busby said. “It feels really good. The last two or three times, you think you’ve got it in the bag. But then things happen. Our kids have been resilient all year. They believed in each other, and they’ve worked. They have each other’s backs. Tonight’s just one more example in that story.” It was a tale of defenses in the quarterfinal matchup. After a scoreless first quarter, the Golden Beavers got on the board thanks to a 15-yard touchdown from quarterback Jeremiah Pratt. The junior also converted the two-point conversion attempt. Pratt finished the contest with 123 yards on 17 carries. “My line made that happen,” he said. “I just
