The PIAA unveiled their enrollment numbers for the next two-year cycle, beginning in the 2016-17 school year.

The anticipation for the numbers comes on the heels of the PIAA approving a new six class system in football, as well as in basketball, baseball and softball.

Boys and girls soccer, as well as girls volleyball will move to four classes. Field hockey moves to three classes and boys and girls lacrosse expands to two classifications.

Teams in all sports have until December 15 to decide whether they want to move up a classification.

For Liberty and Freedom, not much has changed for both schools in regards to their competition level when it comes to the postseason, as both will find themselves in the highest category in all the sports that added classifications.

Bethlehem Catholic doesn’t see much of a difference either, the Hawks will just be in a higher category than before, but in reality, only in name.

In baseball, softball and boys and girls basketball, the Hawks have moved up to 4A. Field hockey and girls volleyball will be in 3A. Boys and girls soccer will both be in 3A as well.

The only major difference for any of Becahi’s sports is in boys basketball, where the Hawks will now be the only East Penn Conference team if they reach the postseason.

Central Catholic has now moved up to 5A in the latest numbers, which should benefit all the teams in 4A, especially Becahi, since Central has been a staple district championship contender over the years.
