Thomas Jefferson quarterback Luke Kosko celebrates after defeating Aliquippa in their WPIAL Class 4A semifinal on Friday, Nov. 8, 2024, at Chartiers Valley.

There were several changes in the three largest classifications this week in the Trib HSSN state rankings, but the three small school classes were unchanged.

Two perennial state powers and champions from 2023 were ousted in Week 10 with state title reigns for Aliquippa in Class 4A and Southern Columbia in 2A coming to an end with season-ending losses in their district semifinals.

Another team at the top of the rankings for the last month in Class 6A was also ousted, as LaSalle College tasted defeat for the first and only time this fall with a District 12 semifinals loss to defending champion St. Joseph’s Prep.

Speaking of the Hawks, they have another showdown this week as they battle 2023 Class 5A champion and the current No. 2 team in Class 6A, Imhotep Charter, in the District 12 championship game on Saturday.

Two ranked teams collide in Class 5A when newly minted top-ranked Upper St. Clair battles No. 5 Peters Township in a District 7 semifinal.

USC took over for Chester, which lost in the District 1 playoffs, while St. Joe’s Prep replaces LaSalle College at No. 1 in Class 6A.

The other four classes remain the same on top with Lampeter-Strasburg in 4A, Northwestern Lehigh in 3A, Troy in 2A and Fort Cherry in Class A.

This weekend, the district playoff morph into the state playoffs with the first round of the PIAA postseason, even though it is championship weekend in some district and semifinal weekend for others.

Woman extradited from Pennsylvania, charged with murder after deadly 2024 Waterbury shooting

WATERBURY, Conn. (WTNH) — A 19-year-old Waterbury woman was extradited from Pennsylvania in connection with the fatal shooting of a 38-year-old man in 2024, according to Waterbury police.

Desire Aitken was arrested on Friday and charged with murder, two counts of first-degree robbery, illegal discharge of a firearm, carrying a pistol without a permit and first-degree assault.

She was charged in connection with the death of 38-year-old Keno Williams of Waterbury, who was pronounced dead after receiving a gunshot wound to the back of his head on Jan. 30, 2024.

On the day of his death, police responded to Bertie’s Restaurant around 7:49 p.m. regarding a motor vehicle crash. They found that the car had drove through the parking lot and backyard area of a nearby home, where it struck several objects before coming to a stop.
