RMA Drought OVER

There is no doubt that the upper management at RMA sought out someone who could make a splash with the football program and tonight in game four of the B W Holt era at RMA the losing streak is over. The Eagles acted tonight as if they needed to make up every lost they have had during this losing streak as they beat Northeast Academy  76-46

Rocky Mount traveled to Greenville Rose and the Gryphons remain unbeaten on the season as Jason Battle's team wins 28-14.  Whether you think of Rocky Mount at 4-1 or 5-0 with the forfeit there is no doubt even 4-1 is a major surprise.

Nash Central hosted the New Bern Bears and NB can play with in team in the state and Nash Central proved tonight they can't.  NB returned to int's for scores and easily beat NC 56-7.  They were ahead 21-0 at the end of the first.  This was never a game.  I think the Bulldogs have the best talent in Nash County but sure are disproving that.

Tarboro open conference play hosting North Pitt and NP lead 17-14 at the half but the Viking put it in over drive in the second half racing to a 41-24 win.  The three time defending 2-A champs are 5-0 in 2012.

In what had to be the game of the night in the area Northern Nash hosted Laney of Wilmington  and this back and forth game went to Laney as they out score the Knights 47-45.  Sounds like a high school basketball score.  Northern is proving they can score on anybody.

SouthWest Edgecombe going into tonight's game with Kinston had played one of the toughest schedules if you base it on the records of the teams as they stand right now.  They had another challenge in Kinston and lo and behold that tough schedule pays as they beat Kinston by a score of 56-49.  Both defenses stayed home in this one.

In the shocker of the night South Granville came to Nash County and clips the Firebird wings  as SG wins 23-13.  Just when you start to think SN has got something going this year they take a step backwards.

Some news from earlier this week in the Big East conference Cross Country meet held at Hunt Northern Nash took first place and Rocky Mount second.  Gryphon Mason Holt won the race.  The girls race was won by Fike with Rocky Mount second.

Big East Volleyball Thursday Fike upset Northern Nash giving the Lady Knights their second lost and today Conley beat Rocky Mount girls 3-0 in Rocky Mount.
