WASHED OUT AGAIN Tonight's baseball game for the Rocky Mount Gryphons has be rescheduled for Monday night March 30th 7pm with Hunt High.
The only reason I do not take part in fantasy sports is I hate to have to be put in a position where I need the team my favorite team is playing do good in a game. My bracket is busted but I can finish maybe 10th in my NCAA bracket out of about 150 people if Wisconsin wins.
My three brackets the one with the Badgers winning the tournament is the only one I still have in the running. If you didn't like watching this game you don't like basketball. Most of the time how great a game is is based on if the team I'm rooting for wins so I know Carolina fans don't feel like this game was very good.
Both teams made their runs but I thought where Carolina messed up was when they were leading 60-56 they came down court three straight times and took running shots ten feet from the basket and the Badgers scored eight straight points after easy rebounds and with six minutes to go Carolina would never get the momentum back.
The final score was not any indication how close this game was.
Notre Dame won the ACC's 12th game in this year's tournament. I think the key to the game was the Shockers big men could could not guard the Irish shooters on the outside and then could not get back to cover the drives to the basket. Since Louisville and NC State play each other that will put at least two ACC schools in the Elite Eight.
Rocky Mount trying to make up a rainout with Tarboro got rained out again Thursday night. The weather man is not giving the Big East much hope of anybody playing Friday. Hunt will be at Rocky Mount. Northern Nash travels to Southern Nash and Fike Visits Nash Central.
If you recall after one game during basketball season started all three of the second games in conference play feature an undefeated team playing a one time loser and after two games all six teams were 1-1. That will not happen in baseball as Rocky Mount and Hunt are tied for last and Fike and Nash Central are tied at the top.

Gryphon Baseball Tonight Maybe?
Gryphon Baseball washed out tonight!!!!
The Rocky Mount Gryphons will makeup the Friday night rainout with Tarboro tonight at Gryphon Stadium. This game is the Endowment game and of course you say what is that? It is the NCHSAA way of giving everyone an extra game on their schedule and they split the money with the state to help run the State association.
I guess you have seen the forecast and there is a good chance for dizzle during the rest of the day and maybe a thunder storm. It is suppose to rain about all day Friday so Friday night's conference game with Hunt is in jeopardy. The Gryphons have scheduled a makeup game Saturday with Corinth Holders at Holders and the over night low Friday night is 28 with drizzle so that sounds like snow to me so we will see if the Gryphons play any games for the rest of this week.
There is no doubt that we are all giddy with the prospects that our basketball teams in the Triangle are in the Sweet 16. If you go by NCAA Tournament Rankings if the Tar Heels of North Carolina make it to the championship game they will have beaten Wisconsin a number one seed in the bracket. Probably the number two seed in Arizona and if they win that Kentucky the number one overall seed will probably be waiting. That would be tough sledding for the Heels. Let's don't put the horse before the cart yet. We will find out plenty about Kentucky when they meet West Virginia. West Virginia plays the type game that just might be the style to mess KU up.
State's Road to the final game is against a four seed Louisville who they beat a month again in Louisville. If you recall that was like the second game after the Ville kicked their point guard off the team and the Cards have adjusted since then with their new lineup. If the Pack survives they probably draw Michigan State who this week has become the Media Darlings after beating Virginia. Should the Pack make it to Indianapolis Duke or Gonzaga would be their final four matchup.
Duke had better be ready Friday night against Utah. They look a lot like Duke shooting outside shots. The next round might be the Zags of Gonzaga who if you have not seen them play can beat anybody. If Duke makes it to the final four the dream would be against State or Louisville but could be Michigan State.
Carolina by far has the toughest road. I think Duke's road is bumpier that you might think and the Pack has as good a chance as any of our three to play in the finals. Then of course they could all three come home after this weekend. I think this type situation is what makes sports special there are 16 teams left and everyone thinks they can win it all.
