UPPER DUBLIN – Christian Johns-Wallace couldn’t wait to get outside and hit someone. The North Penn junior linebacker, and the rest of his Knights teammates, had spent the entire week practicing indoors then endured a lightning delay that ended up pushing Friday night’s kickoff at Upper Dublin back by an hour. By the time kickoff finally rolled around, North Penn had waited long enough. An early defensive play helped spark North Penn to its first win of the season as the Knights dismantled the Cardinals 42-7.

BUCKINGHAM Nomads of the Suburban One League Colonial Division, the North Penn boys track and field team spent this season without a home track, but have themselves a division title.
“There have definitely been some challenges this season,” said a smiling Karl Schafsteller, a captain for the Knights. “Not just with COVID, like every other team is experiencing, but also not having a track.
“So a lot of the days, we didn’t even know where we were practicing. We were relying on some middle school tracks. Sometimes, we were out on the grass, setting up cones. Sometimes, we were just practicing on turf. No spikes, just trainers. We were making it work however we could.”
