Great question! While Burrell and Leechburg are both part of the Alle-Kiski Valley region and occasionally face off—like in the recent scrimmage to kick off the 2025 season [1]—they aren't traditionally considered major rivals in the same way some other schools are.
Their matchups tend to be more regional and friendly, especially since they’re in different classifications within the WPIAL (Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League). Burrell typically competes in Class 3A, while Leechburg is in Class 1A, which means they don’t face each other regularly in conference play.
That said, when they do meet—like in scrimmages or non-conference games—it can still carry a bit of local pride and excitement, especially for folks like you who’ve lived in both towns. 😊
Would you be interested in seeing how their teams are shaping up this season or maybe checking out when they next play each other?
