CBE Patriots Football: Patriots Show Character in Conference Opener

It’s often been said that the scoreboard doesn’t always tell the whole story.  And such was the case for C.B. East’s “Continental Conference Opener” this season against Hatboro-Horsham, where the Hatters topped the Patriots 14-7 at Hatboro-Horsham High School this past Friday evening.  What the score didn’t measure this time, however, was the amount of character the Patriots displayed playing their conference opener.  Although the team is understandably still adjusting to a mid-season coaching change, the Patriots remained focused and brought a tremendous level of energy and enthusiasm to Horsham.

Here are 8 image highlights from Friday evening’s photography coverage (including captions beneath each image), followed by this week’s WebShow containing 120 images.  Enjoy!!!
