North Penn head coach Dick Beck talks about the strengths of the 2026 Knights high school football team

Our strengths on the team is the, the running back position.

I would think both Riley Gray and Zion Smith, are very talented players.

I expect them to have big years.

Defensively, Jacob Garrett and Sal Colella, I would expect s- both are three-year, returning three-year starters.

Garrett plays, middle linebacker, and, Sal plays, strong safety, and he also plays wide receiver.

Those guys are the We're gonna kind of focus around those guys.

I think that London Evans has had a great camp, and he'll likely be our starting quarterback.

We may have some growing pains early.

We got a lot of guys replacing last year, especially up front on the offensive line.

But there is talent there.

So I, I feel like we have a lot of energy.

I feel like the team, we have good team speed.

Hopefully, we can take advantage of that.
