MT Football Edges Out Hempfield on Senior Night

A football team’s student section isn’t always about everyone who comes at kickoff. It’s about who sticks around and stays loud even when the going gets tough.

Still, the student section was rowdier and prouder than it was at full capacity, as the Manheim Township Blue Streaks (9-1, 5-1 in conference) defeated the Hempfield Knights (5-5, 2-4 in conference) by a score of 20-19.
