Share with others:
Ricky Rogers, a top football player in the WPIAL Class of 2014, will be playing for a different team this season.
Rogers, who was a starting receiver as a freshman and sophomore at Keystone Oaks, enrolled at Gateway High School, according to Gateway coach Terry Smith.
Rogers is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound junior who already has a scholarship offer from Rutgers. Rogers has been home-schooled while living in the Keystone Oaks district. Smith said that although Rogers now has a residence in the Gateway district, he will continue to be home-schooled.
Rogers also attended Lincoln Park for a few months as a freshman. It is highly likely the WPIAL will have a hearing on the transfer. Gateway has been a destination for a number of transfers in recent years.
Montour lineman Matt Barone had made a verbal commitment to Connecticut, but decided to accept a scholarship from Temple. Recently, Montour lineman Tyler Haddock also changed his mind from Kent State to Temple.
Joe Dunn has resigned as Trinity boys basketball coach after 11 seasons. Dunn had four of Trinity's six WPIAL playoff wins. He also coached at Seton-LaSalle and Mount Pleasant and had a 324-286 record in 26 seasons. Trinity made the WPIAL playoffs the past four seasons.
