Volley Clinches Bye

The Lady Gryphon Volleyball team made sure that there was no chance for a tie with any one this afternoon knocking off Southern Nash for the third time this year. The Score was 3-0. The ladys are now 9-0 in conference and go for a perfect conference season Thursday at Northern. Today's victory moves them to 15-3 on the season.

The conference volleyball tournament starts Monday at Southern Nash. The semi-finals will be Wednesday and after Thursdays match at Northern the Lady Gryphons are off until the 15th. Should they win their semi-final match the tournament championship is Monday the 20th.

I don't know why no one has been talking about this but do you know our girls tennis team knocked of Fike last Thursday at Fike 6-3. That comes on the heels of Fike winning 7-2 here three weeks ago. I have not heard how today's match with Southern Nash went but with the regular season ending Thursday the lady Gryphons are in a flat footed tie with Fike.

I hope you saw on Rocky Mount highs web site but starting this Friday Rocky Mount high school football goes on the world wide web. I understand we had issues with some of our broadcast Friday night but Wes Bradshaw did tell our audience that discussion were started last Thursday to put Rocky Mount on the web and all the issues were resolved Monday to make it happen Friday night.

I know people like Greg Pierce in Fuquay a die hard Gryphon fan can now hear the Gryphons live on Friday's instead of waiting for the score at 11.00pm.

While other sports are finishing up their regular seasons football is just beginning conference play Friday night. An improved Bulldog team from Nash Central make the long six mile ride to take on the Gryphons. Since coach Crudup moved Dominque Holloway to quarterback the Bulldogs have been much improved.

Should be an interesting game since after losing three in a row the Gryphon Confidence has been dented.
