BEL AIR - Whether it is on the shoulders of two-time defending state champion Noah Wallace or as a team, North East High School will head into the MPSSAA golf championships in a month looking to earn a spot in the record books. No male golfer has ever won three state
titles and no team from Cecil has ever won a championship. As a team, North East delivered on a goal that started to take shape a few years ago of reaching the state tournament. On a windy Tuesday afternoon at Geneva Farm Golf Course in the District VII Golf Tournament, Head Coach Seth Grimes’
