Many of you know I think the football playoffs are one game to long. Too many times the lower seed is blown out and the best thing that can happen for the best team is not get anyone hurt for next weeks game. Tonight Just maybe basketball has one game too many.
Westover comes from Fayetteville and won 11 games in the season. They will not win 12. The Lady Gryphons held Westover to six points on The first quarter. Rocky Mount had 29 at the end of the quarter and that is all they would need. The Wolverines would not score in the second or third quarter and only 3 in the fourth quarter.
Pam Gainey cleared the bench early and often. The Lady Gryphons had 22 steals and when the final horn sounded the Lady Gryphons beat West Over 70-9. The score is correct.
Nash Central girls hosted Western Alamance and The Lady Bulldogs had a tussle with the team from Alamance County. The fact is, it was anybody's game with two minutes to go and the Bulldogs advance. 50-45.
Coach Henry Drake's gamble last week sitting his star player in Big East Tournament paid off at home tonight as the Knights host North East Guilford. How healthy are the Knights for the two week playoff journey to Chapel Hill. Don't know but the Knights are healthy enough to survive and play another day. This one was close all the way but Northern is home again Thursday as they Beat NE Guilford 62-59.
Just maybe Nash Central as the number two seed from the Big East hosted Chapel Hill who was 10-4 in conference play that This was a tough match up for the Bulldogs. It was as the Bulldogs fall at home 44-40.
