• Cranberry Twp. officials approve development of Powell Farm master plan (butlereagle.com) — Cranberry Township supervisors have approved a $28,750 contract to develop a detailed master plan for the 71-acre Powell Farm off Goehring Road, shaping its future as a historic and educational community asset. The plan, supported by grants for orchards and programming, will guide where crops, school-focused learning areas, and other features go, with completion expected by spring and input from a local advisory committee.
   

• Defending leads has become daunting for the Penguins (centredaily.com) — Pittsburgh Penguins players were supposed to have a routine practice in Cranberry, but instead learned of a major trade sending starting goalie Tristan Jarry to Edmonton amid a five-game skid.
