And why would anyone think any differently? The Knights ' two losses had come against Central York (District Three) and Central Bucks West , two of the top teams in the state, while in their four wins they'd only allowed 14 total points. Then things changed. "We lost three straight games (to Pennridge, CB East and CB South ) and we started to question ourselves," North Penn senior quarterback London Evans said. "We had a team meeting and talked about everything and just tried to get everybody on the same page. We knew we had a good football team, but we weren't showing it. And nobody wanted to see our season, especially for the seniors, end without making the playoffs." But in a blink 4-2 turned into 4-5 and the Knights had to win their regular-season finale against Abington to secure a district tournament berth.

Nearly 300 rectangle boxes containing the cremated remains of unclaimed individuals, including four miscarried or stillborn children and four nameless people, with nowhere to go. The oldest unclaimed remains are a local man who died in 1988. A record 61 people went unclaimed last year, according to Montgomery County coroner data. As of August, 29 people had gone unclaimed this year. Do you recognize a name here? Bucks and Montgomery counties have hundreds of unclaimed dead Dr. Janine Darby learned about the unclaimed dead numbers while attending a 2023 ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new coroner offices in Eagleville. While touring the center, she found the room where the cremated remains of those whose deaths had been investigated by the coroner’s office were stored. It bothered her.

Nova beat La Salle 80 to 59 on Tuesday night at the Pavilion. The game was closer than the final score indicates. La Salle was down five at halftime and did a nice job hanging in there despite foul trouble keeping both Anthony Finkley and Rob Dockery off the floor. Nova didn’t play their best game, but had an eight-point lead with eight minutes remaining before they blew it open and went on a big run to cover the -20.5 spread.
