Football: New Bern's Borden inks with Elizabeth City State

ELIZABETH CITY, North Carolina -- Prior to the start of the 2011 football season, New Bern coach Bobby Curlings noticed something special about Cypress Borden.

He saw an athlete and the making of a potential leader.

Borden played four seasons on varsity, a rare feat for a New Bern football player. He won two state championships and made the most of his opportunities.

“To do that, it says something about his athletic ability and his maturity and his ability to be a team player,” Curlings said. “He was a good player, mature, real coachable and he showed signs of being a leader as a freshman.”

Borden, who made his debut on varsity as a freshman, is seeing his four years pay off.
