On Saturday night, the Knights took on the
Neshaminy Redskins in what appeared to be the game of the year.
The Knights got behind early 10-0 in the first quarter, but a determined
Knights offense punched in a touchdown and after a successful extra
point the score was 10-7 at the half.
When the Knights came out of the locker room
they were all fired up. It showed in the opening drive when North
Penn drove the ball down the field and scored on their first possession
making the score 14-10. But by the fourth quarter it seemed as if
the Knights were exhausted and it showed when a screen pass went
for a 48-yard touchdown.
The key to Neshaminy's victory was through
their special teams who blocked a punt and a field goal that would
have put the Knights up by 7 instead of 4. This was unarguably the
toughest loss of the season, and what the Knights need to do is
use this as fuel. They need to use this loss as incentive to get
to the playoffs where they can even the score.
The final score was 24 - 14 in favor of Neshaminy.

PRE-GAME WRITE-UP
On Saturday night your North Penn Knights
will be taking on the current state champs, the Neshaminy Redskins.
The Knights will have to come out fired up and ready to go, in what
may be the biggest game of the season. The Redskins, who are currently
5-1, stand alone atop the patriot division standings. North Penn
is currently 11-7 lifetime against Neshaminy, but is 2-3 against
them in the last 5 meetings.
Coach Beck hopes to break the 2 game losing
streak and get the Knights one step closer to the playoffs. This
game is going to be a crucial one for North Penn, because if they
win they can knock Neshaminy out of the playoff hunt.
This is going to be a game to remember and
it will be close because these teams are so evenly matched. The
team that wins is the team that wants it more and right now the
Knights are foaming at the mouth.
