PIHL Commissioner Calls For PIAA Hockey

The commissioner of the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Hockey League, Ed Sam, recently called for hockey to be included as part of the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association. In a question and answer session with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette the western league commissioner said he believed this could be achieved after a regime change at the PIAA and would occur in the next five to ten years. Although internet chatter seems to find many parts of the question and answer session somewhat dubious the idea of PIAA inclusion would be a boon for local hockey.
