Yes, there will be basketball on Saturday for every team in our area that qualified for the playoffs. The NCHSAA had to make an executive ruling that was not what the schedule called for and here is what they have decided.
There will be basketball on Saturday for all the teams that did not go to school on Friday. About 10% of teams have gotten their first round in and that leaves everybody else to play Saturday. If the weather is too bad in your area then Sunday can be a first round playoff game only. All first round games have to be finished by end of Sunday and only first round games.
Monday will be the second round and the third round or sectional finals will be Tuesday night. Wednesday will be news conference day in Fayetteville for the teams winning three games. Starting Thursday four games will be held per night in both the Crown Coliseum and Crown Arena. The times and scheduling has not been posted for how early or how late the games will go starting Thursday.
Back to the Saturday action since most everyone has forgotten who they are playing and here is the time as we know it right now.
Rocky Mount boys seeded 18 travel to Eastern Guilford seeded 15th and the game will be played at 5pm
Rocky Mount girls seeded 28th travel to 5th seeded Corinith Holders game time is 5pm
Southern Nash Boys seeded 28th travel to Cardinal Gibbons 5th seed game time 4:30
Nash Central seeded 27th boys travel to Big East champions Hunt 6th game time 5:30
Nash Central girls travel to Havelock time unknown
Fike girls at Hunt 4pm
Fike Boys at Northern Guilford 5:30PM
Northern Nash Girls host Morehead at 4pm and Northern Boys host Southern Lee at 6:pm..
The state did allow any team not in school today to hold a practice considering for some that they have not held a practice or been together as a team since the last night of the regular season which was two weeks ago tonight.
