Western Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic League

 
Maybe you know him these days as the highly-successful boys basketball coach at Hampton who has more than 400 wins. But let it be known that Lafko still holds the state high school record for career interceptions in football with 37. His record has stood for three decades. In the 1980s, Lafko was a terrific three-sport athlete at Frazier. Besides the state career record for interceptions, Lafko also had 22 interceptions in one season. And he caught 119 passes as a receiver for a team that played for the 1984 WPIAL Class A title. But he also was a star in basketball and baseball. He played for his father in basketball and scored 1,763 career points, including 54 in one game. In baseball, he played shortstop and hit .537 as a junior. After his days at Frazier, he played basketball and baseball at Westminster.
