The Orange football team will end not only its season, but its stint in the Central Conference this Friday night against Eastern Alamance in Mebane. In the four years since the league was created from realignment, Orange has never defeated a team from Alamance County. Unlike previous years, the Panthers have been competitive against Central Conference teams in 2024. Orange led Southern Alamance 14-0 in the first quarter for Senior Night two weeks ago. It’s been a spectacular season for senior wide receiver Kingston Purefoy-Farrington, who has six touchdown catches. Against Walter Williams last month, Purefoy-Farrington had three touchdown catches. Junior quarterback Kyse Devore came on for an injured Hank Nunnery and threw four touchdown passes in a Homecoming win over Cedar Ridge. Devore also rushed for a touchdown. Junior defensive back Hunter Albert had an interception return for a touchdown and a reception for a touchdown. Against Person, Bradsher returned a kickoff to open the second half for a touchdown. He became the first Orange player to return a kickoff for a touchdown since Wynston Brown did it against Eastern Alamance in 2021. Orange will face Eastern Alamance at the John Kirby Sports Complex in Mebane on Friday night. You can hear the game on Hillsboroughsports.com.
