Hundreds of Upper St. Clair High School student-athletes gathered for the second annual Community Pep Rally on Thursday, Aug. 30, 2018, at the high school stadium.

New this year…Dr. Kevin Deitrick, director of athletics, presented the Upper St. Clair Academic Panther Cup to the varsity team that achieved the highest GPA during the 2017-18 academic year. This year’s winner was the girls golf team with an average GPA of 3.85.

The event included a variety of friendly competitions among the school’s 15 fall varsity sports teams – girls’ and boys’ cross country, golf and soccer; football; girls’ volleyball; girls’ tennis; field hockey; cheerleading; dance; hip hop; rowing and hockey. Student-athletes participated in the limbo, tug-of-war, a field goal kicking contest, and a pie-eating contest.

In addition to friendly team competitions, the event featured performances by the Upper St. Clair High School marching band as well as the cheerleading, hip hop and dance teams.
