Team #2 North Penn (1) 0-0

Before the Ridley Green Raiders felled North Penn in the District 1 AAAA title game, the Knights were ranked 11^th in the nation by the USA-Today.   The Knights finished 13-1 overall, but have to find a replacement for reliable senior field general Todd Smolinsky (1,600+ passing yards).  RBs Craig Needhammer and Brandon Mercer return, as do featured WRs Dom Taggart and Ralph Reeves.  Reeves, only a junior, is already generating quite the amount of Division-1 interest as a linebacker.  Defensively, North Penn held eight of 14 opponents to seven points or less, with a pair of shutouts, and averaged 34.6 points per game.
