The Trinity Hillers will welcome the Aliquippa Quips at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Trinity knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 31 points or more in their past six contests -- so hopefully Aliquippa likes a good challenge.
Trinity will bounce into Friday's matchup after beating Belle Vernon, who they had gone 1-7 against in their eight prior meetings. The Hillers came out on top against the Leopards by a score of 34-21 on Friday.
Trinity can attribute much of their success to Jonah Williamson, who rushed for 145 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and Owen Gardner, who gained 191 total yards. Gardner's rushing production has been exceptional as that marked his fifth straight game with at least 114 rushing yards.
They were just one part of a punishing run game: Trinity was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 341 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 171 rushing yards in eight consecutive games.

Trinity didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Ben Priest and Jake Schreyer. Priest is becoming a predictor of Trinity's success: when he posts at least one interception the team is undefeated (and 3-4 when he doesn't).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Aliquippa). They claimed a resounding 57-7 victory over Ambridge. Given the Quips' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 79th, while the Bridgers are ranked 439th) , the win on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Trinity pushed their record up to 6-4 with the win, which was their third straight on the road. Those road victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 11.7 points on average over those games. As for Aliquippa, their record is now 6-3.
Trinity might still be hurting after the 34-14 defeat they got from Aliquippa in their previous meeting back in November of 2024. That contest was all but decided by halftime, at which point the Hillers were down 21-0.
