Tbh weird that Hough/Mooresville isn’t the nightcap. But I’m looking forward to seeing some teams I don’t normally see. Our game should feel like a legit game.. rumor was we were bringing a student section for it lol.
How will AL Brown do this season. Could they be the dark horse team with new head coach. Some good talent coming in with a good QB. Here is their schedule. I could see a 7-3 reg season record.
8/18 ALB @ West Rowan
8/25 ALB vs NW Cabarrus
9/8 ALB @ South Rowan
9/15 ALB @ Hickory Ridge *
9/22 ALB vs Lake Norman *
9/29 ALB @ Cox Mill *
10/6 ALB vs West Cabarrus *
10/13 ALB vs South Iredell*
10/20 ALB @ Mooresville *
10/27 ALB vs Concord
I can’t make it tonight hoping someone will be kind enough to post results. Also curious to know if our starting TB plays since he sprained his foot on Wednesday. Thanks!
You can not tell how a team is going to perform on the year but you get some glimpses.
Surry Central looked pretty good and scores "several" times against Mt Airy.
Forbush, West Stokes and Mt Airy had the best physical looking players with South Stokes and Surry Central also looked good but not on the same level as the other three.
Mt Airy was awfully relaxed, had a good time and did not look to me to be putting out 100% effort. Forbush and West Stokes looked ready to play somebody.
If Surry Central and South Stokes has some good line play this year they will have greatly improved seasons, in my opinion.
Looking forward to this scrimmage at Coach Joe Popp Stadium at 6pm as We face Grimsley in Pre-season action. I am looking forward on how the Blue Devil do vs a D1 WR from grimsley if he plays.
This will be a good measuring stick for the Blue Devils as Grimsley was 15-1 Last yr - Mooresville was 10-2 . The D will be nasty this yr but ALL EYES will be on the Blue Devil Offense in the Scrimmage to see how they are progressing
Tarboro Vikings schedule has been released and it’s looking really promising. Tarboro will return a good portion of players but they’ve lost some key players also. The two young stud running backs in Mason & Cam will definitely be a major factor for the high powered offense lead by senior QB Omar Lewis. The offensive line will be good also. My major question for this season is the dline & middle LB since the standouts will graduate this year. Everything else is pretty set. The JV team was dominate also and moved a ton up for the playoffs. The main task for the regular season is mainly Hertford County as they bring back a good solid team that has a great QB in Keveon Rodgers. Early great task for the Vikings. SWE may be better also this year. The start of summer workouts are about 6 weeks away & from what the coaches are telling me the boys has been working hard in the weight room preparing for this upcoming season.
The Cherokee community lost a great one this week. Maybe some of you remember playing, wrestling, or watching “Big” John Martin. He was a skilled athlete but and even greater person. He never met a stranger and his heart was huge. I’ll miss my friend.
