Cape community sends Vikings off to battle for state title
Before the Cape football team departed for its state championship game against Salesianum Dec. 1, fans rallied around the young men during their traditional pre-game meal at Nicola Pizza in a show of support.
The team has been eating at Nicola Pizza prior to their games during the championship run and was sure to continue the tradition on the biggest day of their varsity football careers. Although some parents were overcome with emotion as they processed the magnitude of the occasion, the players appeared poised to meet the moment.
As they casually strolled down Nico-boli Boulevard, the players were locked into whatever mindset each needed to lock into. Some laughed, others were dead serious, and a few seemed completely at peace with just hours to go before they chase glory at the University of Delaware.
