Patriots Open Friday Against Sunrise

The Christ Prep Patriots open their 2011 campaign Friday evening as they travel to Bel Aire (Wichita), Kans. for a 7:00 p.m. contest against the Sunrise Christian Academy Buffaloes.

Although the season opener for CPA, the game will be Sunrise's second of the year. The Buffaloes opened up last week against the Community Christian (Norman, Okla.) Royals at home, losing a close game by the score of 26-20. Sunrise stuck with the Royals during the first half, as the game was knotted at 6-all at intermission. Community Christian pulled away in the second half, however, as they scored two touchdowns in the third quarter.

Sunrise QB Zach Howell was 25-44 passing for 245 yards with two touchdowns. His favorite target was WR Bo Westerfield who had nine catches for 109 yards. Preston Atherton added eight catches for 94 yards. The Buffaloes rushed for 26 yards on 13 carries. Community Christian brought a workmanlike ground game to the contest. The Royals rushed for 284 yards on 46 carries.

For those driving to Friday's game the address is 5500 E 45th St N. Bel Aire, KS 67220
