Kids on the Pitch (Scholastic and Youth Soccer in Western PA)

PSN's John Krysinsky begins the pod by bringing on Lydija Amayo, a senior at Avonworth High School, who came up with a special name for a project that is very important to her and her family: 'The Beautiful Gift' -- as she's collecting soccer related donations for her family's native town Cajamarca, Peru. Lidija is hoping to collect donated soccer gear that she can bring to the kids at at Cristo Rey Maristas, the school where her uncle Juanaso is a physical education teacher.  Lydija and her family will be visiting Cajamarca in February. Then, John takes another look back at the WPIAL season, and the eight Championship matches at Highmark Stadium in early November, including interviews with the winners along with the remarkable seasons for Moon girls soccer and Seneca Valley boys soccer, who each won a PIAA Championship.
