Big East Champs Hunt


The greatest game in the history of the Big East 3-A football has been won by
Hunt 41-34 in double overtime as they beat their arch rival Fike in double overtime.  It started as If Hunt is in for a laugher leading  21 nothing when Fike found a will and scored late and made a two point conversion to tie 28-28 to send it to over time. Hunt wins the top seed while Fike will represent the Big East as the number two seed.

In Death Valley Rocky Mount found the only way to move the ball was through the air and was able to secure the third seed beating Northern Nash 28-7.  There was nothing pretty about this  one as Rocky Mount had three ints  and Northern returned the favor giving Rocky Mount three fumbles.

Rocky Mount jumped to a 14-0 lead but Northern cut it to 14-7 at the half.  Northern had several third quarter chances as the ball stayed on the Rocky Side of the field in the third but their chances ran out and Rocky Mount added to second half scores.  The playoff brackets will be announced around  6pm Saturday night.

RMA is headed to the state championship of eight man football as they speak by St David's 48-46 at RMA.  The state championship game will be played at the Rocky Mount Sports Complex next weekend.

Beddingfield beat SouthWest Edgecombe 31-20.  Tarboro as expected beat  North Edgecombe 47-0 to clinch  first place in the Twin Rivers.  Nash Central shocked Southern Nash  by putting 21 on the board and lead Southern 21-7 but lost second half 35-0 and the game 42-21.  Nash Central finishes the season 0-11

Former Rocky Mount Gryphon J'kyra Brown came off  the ECU bench today as the Pirate women opened up the college basketball game with a win. Brown in 19 minutes scored. 20 points to begin her college career..

Rocky  Mount Senior baseball player Will Edwards has committed to play baseball in  2015 for Chowan University.  Edwards spent most of his juNior  year with a broken foot and without Edward's bat or pitching arm Rocky Mount didn't have the year they could of had with  Will in the lineup all year.
