If you are not first or second in your conference standings heading into every conference high school basketball tournament this week then you season is on the line. One more loss and your season is over.
This week is not one of those weeks for either Rocky Mount team as the boys and girls are #1 seeds. They will head into the sectionals regardless of what happens this week. They would like however to get on a roll that they can carry into sectional play. There is nothing like adding another trophy to the showcase.
Boys play begins Monday at Hunt and the girls start Tuesday. RM boys don't see action until Wednesday and the Girls wait for their semi's Thursday.
The Winter Olympics are under way and I have not watched any of it as of yet. I still would like to know why basketball is played in the Summer Olympics instead of the winter.
The Carolina Hurricanes head into the Olympic break one of the hottest teams in hockey. The last time I mentioned them they were 11 points out of the playoffs with 27 games to play. There are now 20 games left and they have shrunk the points back to only nine. It is very hard in hockey to gain ground when every team that gets a game into overtime wins a point.
The Bobcats are sixth in the NBA East. If this continues it will be their first playoffs ever. But the NBA regular season still has to mid April to end the regular season.
If you are a Carolina fan there is at least one team that you are better than. That's N C State. I think the Pack has packed it in for this season and played miserable yesterday in Chapel Hill. Finally towards the end Carolina pulled away.
In sports every week there is a new conclusion who is the best and Duke is near the top, but if there is one team in the ACC capable of making the final four to me it looks like Wake Forest. The Deacs have some ball players.
