On the state website they have the counties which participate at each regional. It is not that much work to find a PA county map on google.

I plotted the approximate locations of each school in NW (div B), and here's the link: http://www.aardvarkmap.net/mape/W3YHDM32

I didn't know that they had a list of counties on the website. Thanks!

Edit: When you click on it, it's really zoomed in, so just zoom out to see the whole thing.

I just don't think there's a point in complaining about something that you can still find out fairly easily.

I had no idea how spread out the NW region is.

Does anyone know what is going on with Swickley and Shady Side? I heard that Swickley can not coach anymore so are they not competing anymore.

Supposedly Sewickley isn't competing anymore because their coach quit, but since there's no one from Sewickley on here, we can't be sure. Shady Side is still around.

I just made a map of the different regions:

It's pretty simple, but it gets the point across and it's all I had time for.

That's really cool. I've never realized how small SE is (in area) in comparison to NE or NW. I guess it's because of the different population densities.
