#4 Gateway Faces McKeesport in Western PA Showdown Thursday

By Jeff Fisher

The Gateway Gators haven't really been challenged this year on the way to an 8-0 start. That should all change Friday night when the Gators (8-1) face McKeesport (7-1) in the WPIAL regular season finale.

Gateway (#4 USA Today Super 25) has won its game by an average of over 38 points, and has scored over 50 points twice, while topping the 40 point mark in seven of its eight games. It's closest game came two weeks ago when it beat Erie McDowell 30-18. McKeesport lost its season opener 14-7 in overtime to Colerain (OH), which had been nationally-ranked until it lost its first game two weeks ago.
