All Four Public Nash County Schools On the Road

Rocky Mount High School scored a touchdown in the first and second quarter to take a 14-0 lead on The Hawks of Triton High.  Juane Sanders scored from five yards out to put the Gryphons on the board in the first and Nick Bynum scored in the second on a 3yarder to give the Gryphons a 14-0 lead in the second.  Triton had a eleven yard run by Juwan Thompson to cut the Gryphon lead to 14-7 at the half.

Bynum scored again in the third to give the Gryphons a two touchdown advantage and Chase Miller added all three extra points as the Gryphons hold off the Hawks 21-7.  Rocky Mount rushed for 133 yards in the game while Triton had 146.  The stats were close during the game as Triton passed for 31 yards while Josh Carter and Forest Bell combined for 67 giving the Gryphons a 200 to 177 lead in total yardage.  The Gryphons go to 4-2 heading to a week off before conference play starts two weeks from tonight at Nash Central.

Speaking of Nash Central the Bulldogs had plenty to worry about tonight as Hillside shuts out the Dogs 47-0 to add the Nash Central's misery in losing their 19th straight game.

Northern Nash made a trip down I-95 just a little shorter than the Gryphons did stopping in Smithfield to play the Spartans of Smithfield Selma. Seems as Randy Raper Knights are primed for Big East play as Northern dominates SSS 42-0.

Can't wait to hear about this one as Southern Nash made a trip to Ayden to take on Ayden-Grifton and this game comes down to a missed extra point.  Can't wait to hear whether it is a missed kick or if AG missed a two point try but the Firebirds win 7-6.

Rocky Mount Academy continues to roll as they smother Lawrence 64-8.  Seems as if every year fewer and fewer teams are playing eight man football.  The Eagle success recently bringing more players out for football might be time to make the jump to 11 man.

As expected North Edgecombe had little trouble with Kipp Pride winning 52-8.

The one game win streak for Rocky Mount Prep is over as SE Halifax manhandled the Jags  58-8

Hunt rolled over Beddingfield 42-12 and I'm interested in this score Fike 41- South Johnston 35.  Only picked seven games this week and went 7-0.
