Price Sister Do It Again.

Nash Central's Price sisters have done it again as they have won the doubles Regional Tennis Championship.  Randi the senior and Kaley the junior are headed once again to the State Doubles  after winning over teammates Dana Kelly and Lizzie Eakin.  Kelly and Akin have also qualified for the State championships.  Caley Bass  second in singles and Northern Nash's Sarah Hinson  4th also qualified for the state championships from our area.

Round two of the State volleyball playoffs still have two Big East teams Fike and Northern Nash and one of them will make it to the third round as they will meet in the second round Tuesday at Fike.

Rocky Mount Academy is the #7 seed as the NCISAA playoffs that begin Friday night.  They will face off against the number two seed Word Of God a team they already played earlier and gave a good accounting of themselves.  I don't know how the NCISAA votes on coach of the year but B W Holt has the Eagles in the playoffs after not winning a game last year.

The Big East soccer conference Tournament starts tonight.  Guess who plays each other.  #4 Northern Nash host Rocky Mount with the winner meeting #1 seed Southern Nash Tuesday night.

Nash Central's football practice will have a little  extra step this week even though it looks like the Bulldogs will finish the season Friday night.  There is an outside possibility that the Bulldogs if they beat Southern Nash, Northern Nash beats Rocky Mount and Hunt beats Fike that here could still be a three way tie for third .  The Bulldogs would still be fifth but have a good chance of getting in the playoffs as one of the best of the rest who fill in the brackets.  If that happens they just might draw Hunt the first playoff game.

There seems to be an up rise of the quality of athletic teams at N C State since the arrival of Debbie Yow as Athletic Director.  Sunday Tom O'Brian announced two football players had been dismissed from the team for their transgressions off the field and in one players case several speeding tickets he had received in his home County.  A couple of weeks ago four soccer players week dismissed from the team for fighting in a bar on Hillsbourgh Street.  Debbie Yow has gone as far as made the bar off limits to any N C State Athlete.

You know how I feel about any student who gets a free ride in college has a responsibility to those giving him the free education.  I applaud the Wolfpack for their efforts to make sure those who don't deserve to continue to get a free ride don't.  Maybe that could be a hint to Chapel Hill.  Nothing like trying to get something started this week.  Oh yea there is a game this week isn't it.

Duke is the only team in North Carolina at this late date that has secured a Bowl Trip in December or January more than likely the talk right now is the Belk Bowl for the Devils.

I do have to know one thing about the game Saturday night.  What's up the the Tar Heel wearing  Duke blue pants?  I thought Duke was having a scrimmage when they came out in Duke Dark blue jerseys and Carolina had on Duke Blue Pants.  Please get somebody to tell the Tar Heels what their school colors are.
