You could see the results of a football program regardless of the size of the school that has won three straight football championships as today the best play for the Tarboro Vikings Tyquan Lewis chose Ohio State to play his college football.
Tyquan is the second Viking to make the big announcement while "live Streaming" to the world within the past year as Todd Gurley a three time state champ chose Georgia last winter. Tyquan is rated a four star football player and with his size everyone in the country is after him. It doesn't hurt one bit that Todd Gurley is the talk of the Southeastern conference three games into the college football season.
Wednesday in the weekly cross country run Northern Nash was the winning boys team with Nash Central second followed by Rocky Mount. Gryphon Mason Holt won another race this fall as he posted a time of 17:00 minutes in taking the win. This past weekend Holt ran in a race in Cary where the top runners in North Carolina all seemed to be running in the same race and Holt ran his personal best at 16:48. George Corbin finished second Wednesday with a 17:23.
Over in the girls race Fike came home the winner and Rocky Mount finished second.Michaela Williams from Nash Central was the top girl finisher.
Roy Williams was released from the hospital today after his kidney surgery yesterday. Boy- the way hospital stays have changed. Back in 1974 I had reconstruction surgery on my right knee at Duke and was in the hospital five days. Today they roll you off the bed as soon as they get you back off the operating table.
Not all that many high school games Friday but let's get to it.
North Edgecombe and Rocky Mount Prep. Prep still feeling their way into football NE 35 Prep 14
SouthWest Edgecombe host Farmville as Eastern Plains conference play continues. After last weeks upset of Kinston the Cougars will either have a swelled head or they have found out who they are. I see the latter as the Cougars beat Farmville 42 24.
Since we don't have many picks this week I'll try my hand at RMA as they play Lawerence Academy. Lawrence is the little Ravenscroft of the east as they are close to Edenton, Plymouth, Williamston, Windsor and Ahoskie and get a few from each town. The result a solid program in sports. B W Holt has the Eagles rolling but it will be another close game but Lawrence wins 42-28.
High school volleyball tonight Northern who lost to Rocky Mount Tuesday stuns Hunt tonight while Rocky Mount in five sets beats Nash Central.
