Keystone Oaks dominated the Allegheny Conference last season behind an all-out aerial assault led by WPIAL passing leader Alex Smith. Smith has graduated and the conference which was loaded with upsets last season is wide open heading into 2017. Apollo-Ridge is a 2A sized school based on their enrollment that made the smart decision to play up in 3A in order to have a much more favorable travel schedule. Keystone Oaks reached the WPIAL semifinals last season before falling to eventual champion Beaver Falls. The Allegheny Conference was thin on defense last season with every team allowing between 20 and 30 points per game.
