Cumberland Welcomes Home State Champs

December 7th, 2013 by WCBC Radio

Bells, whistles, car horns,  sirens and a large enthusiastic crowd braved the cold and lined  the streets of  Cumberland to welcome back to town the Fort Hill Sentinals, the  new Maryland 1A high school football champions. The Sentinals wrapped up a dominant, undefeated season Saturday afternoon,  clinching the school's 3rd state title with a 25-0 win over previously unbeaten Douglass at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.  The team bus arrived in Cumberland right around 8:20 and then headed to Fort Hill High School for a victory celebration.  Head Coach Todd Appel  said what stands out to him above the team's superior athletic skills and excellent  all around play is the character of the players,  both on and off the field.
