District 10 soccer teams go 3-0 during PIAA tournament openers

Lorenzo Baker’s Nov. 10 performance was instant history for the Mercyhurst Prep’s boys soccer program. The Laker who shut out Winchester Thurston over 110 minutes of regulation and overtime action was the same Laker whose goal ended the teams’ PIAA Class 1A tournament opener at Mercyhurst University’s Saxon Stadium. Coach Jake Gamble sent out Baker, his goalkeeper, as the team's fifth shooter for the shootout format that determined the victor. The senior lined up for his 12-yard attempt against the Bears’ Ian Leaman, the other reason for the scoreless match. Baker, who also kicks for Mercyhurst’s football team, won the rare goalie vs. goalie matchup. Leaman guessed wrong when he dove to his right on a shot that went left. The scenario wasn’t unique according to Baker, who was mobbed by teammates after his goal clinched their 5-3 shootout and the Lakers’ berth the state quarterfinals. “I knew (the shootout) was coming after a while,” Baker said, “and I told the guys, ‘Everybody get your minds right.’ This (tournament) was stapled on our bulletin board throughout this season. Not just this (match), but going for the (title).” Mercyhurst, District 10’s champion, will take a 15-5-1 record into its Nov. 14

Medicaid recipients face new renewal requirements beginning in 2027

Allegheny County officials are launching a communitywide campaign to help residents maintain Medicaid coverage as new federal eligibility requirements take effect Jan. 1, 2027. The changes, enacted under the federal Big Beautiful Bill Act, will require many Medicaid recipients to renew their coverage every six months and answer additional questions on lengthy renewal forms. County officials and health care providers say the outreach effort is intended to prevent eligible residents from losing coverage because they miss deadlines or struggle to navigate the renewal process. “Too many people risk losing health coverage even if they are working or eligible for exemptions simply because they are unaware of new requirements or don’t know where to turn for help,” County Executive Sara Innamorato said. Organizations across the county team up The Allegheny County Department of Human Services is partnering with health care providers and community organizations to offer training, public information sessions, text reminders and online advertising. Through a partnership with the UPMC Neighborhood Outreach Center, grassroots organizations will receive training to help residents navigate Pennsylvania’s online Medicaid system .

Keys to an FSU win at Pittsburgh on Friday

Your browser does not support the audio element. In the preseason, most considered Pittsburgh a contender to face Miami in the ACC Championship game, but a season-ending knee injury to sophomore quarterback Mason Heintschel led to three consecutive Pitt losses. The Panthers were far more potent in the 4.5 games prior to the-injury, which occurred half way through a win at Virginia Tech. The offense was averaging 39.55 points and the defense holding folks to 12.22. But in the 4.5 games since, the offensive production has fallen to 24.22. And the defense, while still dangerous, isn’t nearly as stingy, giving up 27.79 points, 15.5 points more than in the 4.5 game before the injury.
