Sometimes there is so much going on you just can get it all in where something hot pushes it off the front page. So let's catch up on a few thing that I never got around to:
One student has been arrested and authorities are looking for possibly two more students in the vandalizing of Dowdy-Ficklin Stadium at ECU. The young man who has been arrested has dropped out of ECU and has been on tweeter threatening with a rifle to take care of those who are tweeting against him. I would hope those in charge will put this young man under observation.
D H Conley has had to forfeit two victories due to the fact a player transferred from Rose High to Conley but according to the NCHSAA still lived in Rose district. This will effect our area schools who might play Conley in playoffs.
Today if you go on line to The Technician the student newspaper of N C State there is an article featuring the rise of the Club Tri program at N C State and both the men and Women's team heading to the nationals in April. A closer look and the by line is written by Tyler Ellis. Yes, this is freshman Tyler Ellis from Rocky Mount. If I recall Tyler was the sports editor of the Rocky Mount year book last spring.
Friday lead by five tennis players from Nash Central the State tennis singles and double titles will be decided this weekend.
Saturday the Cross Country finals will be held in Kernersville. Northern's team has the best chance from the area and Rocky Mount's Mason Holt looks to be the highest finisher from the area.
Today David Stern announced that he would retire Feb 1 2014 and Adam Silver will take over as Commissioner. Silver is a 1984 grad of Duke University.
Saturday is Military Appreciation day at Campbell's volleyball. Morgan Doughtie will be singing the National Anthem.
The Final Friday night of high school football's regular season is upon us. Tarboro and Beddingfield. There is a really good possibility that they might also meet in the opening round of playoffs. I would suspect if it happens the Vikes win twice but this Friday 42-14
Southern Nash at Nash Central: Second is all the Firebirds. It is a matter of how much the starters play. Firebirds 35 Nash Central 14.
Hunt and Fike: A perfect season two years in a row for Hunt. Hunt 28 Fike 7
Rocky Mount hosting Northern. Rocky Mount will score this year and they will score enough to win this one 26-7.
