Thanks to the efforts of a group of dedicated and committed fans of the sport of high school football, you'll never again wonder just exactly which school had the best grid team in the Keystone State in 1909, 1927, 1958 or any other year for that matter!  That's because our group of experts - The Board of Directors - will have it right here for you on your site: PA State Football Champions dot com!!!  And just who are we - your Board of Directors that is - we're die hard Keystone State schoolboy football fans, former players, coaches, historians, news reporters and friends of the game who eat, sleep and drink the sport. 

That's who we are!

With the above as a background, this fanatical group has taken on the task of compiling "The List" - the most completely researched and well documented analysis of state football champions ever assembled for the state of Pennsylvania.  Using a broad based approach which relies on the statewide playoff system as existed from 1922 through 1940 (as well as the current scheme in place since 1988), the Directors are supplementing their work by incorporating UPI and AP polls, Dr. Roger Saylor's point system, research into periodicals of the day, interviews with "those who were there" and all other sources as are available including the seasoned opinions of each Director.  Of course, the Board is comprised of experts from around the state and by combining all of the foregoing, it will result in as perfect a consensus as possible for each year's champion. 

The Directors hope that you, the fans, will enjoy the results of their work.

Our goal: To provide you the reader and fan with the most reliable and accurate all-time list of Pennsylvania football state champions ever assembled!

Remember that this is brought to you by true fans and friends of the sport of high school football.
