Just about everybody played in Basketball tournaments last week and when school starts back this week the Big East starts conference play Friday and for some they have midweek nonconference games to finish up.
The team with the best record through December is the Knights of Northern Nash. 12-2. They have finished their 14 non conference games and only have five weeks of conference games only. Coach Drake has the Knights primed to win the conference out right this year without sharing with anyone. Northern is on the road Friday when they travel to Hunt right now struggling to find any rythem.
Fike has won double digits games so far having a record of 10-2. Fike still has a game Wednesday when they host Beddingfield 6-3 and Friday host Southern Nash.
Nash Central 8-2 is the third Big East team with a good looking record as they head into January. They would like to keep up the winning pace and not collapse the last week like they did last year needing just one win the last week to clinch first but lost both and lost the bye in the conference tournament. Visit Rocky Mount Friday.
Southern Nash 5-7. Have a non conference game Wednesday hosting Smithfield Selma 4-7 then visit Fike Friday.
Rocky Mount 3-3. Already won three more games than they did through most of January last year. Football playoffs have a lot to do with that last year as they played most games despite not having a full roster. This year Mike Gainey chose to postpone as many games as possible and that is why they have only played six games. Get a visit from Hertford County 3-4 Wednesday. Host Nash Central Friday.
Hunt 3-9 has a Tuesday night non conference game with Kinston 4-4 and wait for a visit from Northern Nash Friday.
Friday conference play Northern Nash @ Hunt
Nash Central @ Rocky Mount
Southern Nash @ Fike
