North Allegheny's quest for a sixth consecutive WPIAL Class AAA girls' track and field team championship has been put on hold.

The finals of the pole vault were not completed yesterday at Norwin because of safety concerns over the rain.

Norwin was leading the meet against North Allegheny, 74.5-66.5.

To win the championship, North Allegheny must take the top three places in the pole vault.

The competition will resume Monday at Norwin. Latrobe and Butler also are competing in the girls' final.

The boys' pole vault also needs to be completed. Butler and Latrobe are leading in points.

"I totally agree with the decision not to go until Monday," North Allegheny coach John Neff said.

"Our [girls] have done very well, but it's never been this close before."

Neff did not want to use the wet conditions as an excuse for his team's championship streak being in jeopardy.

"I take my hat off to the team from Norwin," he said. "[Complaining about the weather] doesn't get you anywhere."
