Bulldogs Dominate

Round two of the 3-A Tennis playoffs for the Lady Bulldogs was the same result as round one.  A 6-0 whitewash of Jacksonville.  The difference this time was that Jacksonville came in with a 17-2 record  and was going to be a dog fight but Nash Central did not let that happen.  They were so dominant that the three doubles matches were not neccessary.  This weekend the singles and doubles state championships will be contested.

Tarboro in the 2-A playoffs were not as fortunate as they lost 5-4 to Carrboro knocking the Lady Vikings out of the playoffs.

Tonight in the second round of the state volleyball playoffs Fike hosted and beat Northrn Nash 3-1 to advance to round three of the playoffs.

Southern Nash's Allison Pitts is the only player from Nash County to qualify for the state golfing championships.  Those rounds will be Monday and Tuesday.

Later this week is the regional Cross Country championships will take place with several runners and teams still alive.

Last night Rocky Mount beat Northern Nash in the 4/5 game in the Big East soccer tournament. The Gryphons played the #1 seed Southern Nash this afternoon but I have not found a result.

Like to say congratulations to Northern Nash Trumpet player Joshua Freeman who has qualified to play for the All Star Invitational Marching Band and their assignment is be the official band for the BCS National Championship college football game in January.  Good going Josh!

It doesn't matter what sport you play there is always somebody trying to predict the playoffs before they are set.  Saturday at 6pm the high school football playoffs will be announced by the NCHSAA.  High ScoolOT.COM the wral.com high school portion of their website is predicting Rocky Mount as the #3 from the Big East will draw Currituck in the opening Round.  Currituck is 3-7 on the year.  If the bracket is correct RM would play the #1 seed Havelock in round two.  Southern who will be in the 3AA bracket will not be so lucky if HSOT.COM is correct.  They would get Triton in the opening game and Triton has lost only once this year.
