The first round of the 2023 WPIAL football playoffs kicked off on Friday night, and there was plenty of shakeup across the board as underdogs worked to defy the odds and upend their portion of the bracket: among those were No. 9 Greater Latrobe, who upset No. 8 West Allegheny to pick up their third playoff win in program history, while No. 10 Beaver Falls upset No. 7 Keystone Oaks behind a run-heavy attack.

Pittsburgh Sports Now was in attendance to cover each of those upsets, which you can read more about here:
