The numbers are in, and though District 7 will be shaken up a bit, the impact on area WPIAL teams won't be felt too much for the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons. Classification numbers vary from sport to sport, but are determined by the number of boys and girls in grades 9-11, and are used for a two-year scheduling period.

The football alignment will remain the same, save Southmoreland's move from Class AAA to AA.

The most movement occurs in boys and girls basketball. The Laurel Highlands boys push up into Class AAAA, while California slides back into Class A, by one boy. For the girls classifications, Waynesburg Central and Southmoreland move into Class AA, with the Lady Scots just six girls shy of Class AAA.

Section 6-AAA in girls soccer has been substantially altered with Waynesburg Central, Belle Vernon and Southmoreland all sliding down to Class AA.

The Southmoreland boys move back into Class AA in both track & field and cross country.

The other sports remain basically the same for the next two years.
