Former Northern Nash golfer Daniel Claytor(2009) begins play today in the Division II National Men's golf championship being held in Indiana. Claytor qualified by finishing second in the South/Southeast Regional Division II tournament two weeks ago when in 54 holes he shot 5 under par. Claytor is a freshman at Barton College.
Can Legion Post 58 Repeat as Area 1 champs and make it back back to the state tournament this year being played in Asheboro? The pieces start to fall in place this weekend at head coach Hank Jones holds try outs for this years squad. The try outs will be held @NCWC at 3.00pm Saturday . Jones will be assisted this year by former Gryphon and now JV Baseball coach at Nash Central "BaseBall" Britt Johnson.
Right now only eleven dates with two double header are on the schedule pending the out come of Gryphon baseball's success in the state high school playoffs. If there was one thing learned last year when the schedule was reduced to less than fifteen regular season games, was that with all our teenagers can do these days playing ball every night is not on their priority list. Reducing the schedule gave them free time most nights until the playoffs hit.
If no games are added the first game will be in Wilson at Fleming Stadium on June 8th. Those who attended the playoffs last year remember the fifth game in the playoffs against Wilson last year Post 58 scored two runs to tie and then added one more in the bottom of the ninth to get past Wilson and make it to the eastern finals against Cary.
Most if not all home games this year will return to Gryphon Stadium.
Baseball team pulled out at 12.15 for the journey to West Brunswick and with clearing skies it looks like baseball tonight for the Gryphons. Boy wouldn't this be a good one for the radio?
First pitch is scheduled for 6.00pm at West Brunswick high school. The weather man is promising clearing skys as the day goes on so it looks like BASEBALL TONIGHT for those who can get there
