Last week during the NCHSAA Regional 3 meetings Rocky Mount High Athletic Director and head basketball coach Michael Gainey won the regions Distinguished Service Award. Gainey who as basketball coach has won two state basketball titles during his tenure as head basketball coach has taught and held several coaching positions in his career at Rocky Mount High. The award was given for his efforts serving the NCHSAA?
Also last week in another regional meeting long time Greenville Rose supporter Marvin Jarman was given a Special Persons award in his support of Rose High School. Those close to any school that plays Rose knows Jarman sits on the bench, stands on the sidelines or sits in the dugout of every Rose sporting event in football, basketball and baseball game. He told me several years ago if a football and basketball game were played the same night he would go to the most important game first. Jarman graduated from Rose in the early 70's and has never missed a football game and not more than ten total misses in basketball and baseball combined. Surly if there was ever a special person Marvin is it.
College Basketball practice started yesterday and we are about 40 days before the first college basketball games of the year. I don't understand why basketball needs 40 days of practice while football only gets about 25 days before their first games. Seems to me that football you have a lot more plays to learn than basketball so should've the practice time be reversed?
The longest winning streak in NC high school football has ended. Northern Guilford who had won 31 straight games had to forfeit their win of their game on September 13th after having play too many JV players on varsity
Have you heard this that the Franchise Harlem Globetrotters has been sold to a Corporation that owns several amusement parks. No it is not Disney but the company that owns Dollywood and several more. I bet you thought Dolly Parton Owned Dollywood but not any more .t
