Friday High School Game hinges on strike settlement
The Friday game between Yeadon and Darby Colwyn at Darby Colwyn depends on whether the William Penn School District strike is settled or a court injunction orders extra curricular activities. If the strike continues and no injunction is issued, Yeadon would cancel the game. Yeadon athletic director Robert Leshinski says players want to play but safety and labor dispute concerns prevail. Sharon Hill coach Bill Cubit sought a replacement opponent with no success yet.
