Post 10 from Wilmington North Carolina lost today to Florence South Carolina 10-2 and Florence clinched the Southeast Regional in the American Legion Baseball playoffs. Florence now heads to Shelby for the American Legion World Series. Wilmington Post 10 finishes second in the Regional.
This week is the beginning of the varsity high school sports season. Gryphon soccer is beginning the season tonight as they travel to Roanoke Rapids. Tuesday Girls tennis see their first action of the season traveling to Edenton to play Holmes High. The Volleyball team travels to Louisburg.
Wednesday soccer is on the road once again as this time they travel to Millbrook. Tennis hits the road again Thursday with a trip to C B Aycock. The first home varsity game ever to be play on campus at the new school will be Thursday when volleyball host Roanoke Rapids.
Friday cross country hits the trail for the first time this year running in Wilson at Gillette Field. The first varsity football game is Friday night as the Gryphons host Bunn.
The news just does not get any better for the University of North Carolina and this lingering academic scandal which now seems to hit closer to home than we would like. Someone has put Julius Peppers grades on the UNC website which shows he also went to those same classes which has put Carolina in a pot of hot water to begin with. Looks to me like Carolina should ask for an independent investigation into all this fraud because those in charge keep falling further and further into a pit of denial and then more news comes out about what they just denied. Turn it over to somebody else and hold your breath that it doesn't get even worse. You know of course Peppers brings the basketball program front and center now.
Couldn't you just see the weight of the world lifted off the shoulders of the men's basketball team Sunday during the Olympics. LaBron James didn't come any where close to the celebration when Miami won the world title over how he acted winning yesterday. It sure looks like they all enjoyed winning the Gold metal.
Who is the best golfer in the world. Rory McElroy at least for this week. He did to Tiger and every one yesterday what Tiger did has done to the others up until now. You have to give Carl Petterson credit after getting a two stroke penalty on the first hole for a leaf moving in the hazard. If it had of been me I would have shot 100 after that but he tied for third.
