WALLACE TEES UP STATE TITLE GOLF REPEAT
By Andrew Barbin
The legend of Noah Wallace continued to grow this past Tuesday, as the annual District VII championship and MPSSAA state championship qualifier took place at Geneva Farms Golf Course. Last year, there was a lot of unknowns about where Cecil County stood in compar-

Just ask the Rising Sun Tigers (2-2), who, after suffering a blowout loss at the hands of the Patterson Mill Huskies (3-1) a week earlier, decided to take an
alternate approach to their pregame festivities last Friday before defending their home turf, 40-21, against the Perryville Panthers (22). “This week, they were giving a lot of pregame speeches and all that stuff and it wasn’t getting us anywhere,” said Clem Vaughan, the Tigers’ head coach. “I said, ‘Sit in silence. Don’t do anything. Sit and think about your job.’ So they did, they CONTINUED ON PAGE A-6
