Despite the damp weather conditions, there was no stopping the Patriot football team from bringing home another win. After pulverizing the Glades Central Raiders Sept. 9, the final score stood at 56-0. 

The game was destined to go the Patriots’ way since they won the coin toss. Following that, the team scored four touchdowns in the first quarter, two in the second quarter and two more in the second half.

The Patriot Cheerleaders spent their Friday night cheering on both the players and the crowd. “[The student section] is the place to be during a game,” said sophomore Arianna Borhan. “If you’re not there, you miss out on all the fun aspects, like cheer and dress-up themes. Even if you get a bit messy, it’s fun and the life of the football game.” (Photos/Emma Delgado)
