    Mister Kidd

    GSO, reading your post it reminded me of an incident my Father told me about that happened when he was a boy: This would have been around the middle 1920's in Cherryville. A small circus had come to town, There were some animals, a freak show, and the main event was a trapeze act. A little boy...

    Baseball Week of 3/25 scores

    One of Cherryville's (Post 100) problems, lately, is their inability to generate some offense. In what's becoming the distant past everyone in Post 100's entire batting order was an extra-base threat. I can recall the fans chanting "Wake up the dead", meaning hit it in the cemetery (The town's...

    Some of the Cherryville players, et al, will have to face him again this summer if he plays legion baseball for Cleveland County. Wish Post 100 had him.

    My Breakdown of what 8 Classes Could be if they'd quit playing around

    LOL, welcome home boys. As much as you're going to hate the thought of it, until 1842 you were part of Lincoln County, anyway, and now you are back... Heard it said that politics makes strange bedfellows, looks like sports does, too... Oh, and speaking of bedfellows, you'll have your own...

    Ace, where in the world have you been. Wait, wait, don't tell me... It's awfully good to hear from you and I hope all is well. GrizzlyDevil,AMD and MC, this guy is as much of a Blue Devil as you are. He was at the Maiden-Tablor City ice bowl in 78 when the Devils (Blue, that is,Tabor City being...

    CVAC 2024 - Spring/Summer

    In the first round of the playoffs he was 3 of 4, for 109 yards against North Surry. He's also key player on defense at middle linebacker, one of those kids who looks like he has grown more everytime you see him. Here is highlight of him from the NorthSurry game, courtesy of MaxPreps. It's best...

    CVAC 2024 - Spring/Summer

    I heard that last night over at Walmart, and I heard it last August about this past year's WL team, and we know how that turned out. I wonder if their coach isn't like Coach T. Brown, he has the ability to take what's available and turn them into competitors. Given their type of offense, maybe...

    CVAC 2024 - Spring/Summer

    Looks like he would have to go to a Catawba County school, Statesville being in Iredell County; and Hickory has their own school district, ie Hickory City Schools (Do they not).

    Footballstar_17 & Sportsnut17, those are good points. Tip of the hat to the #17 guys...Hope he doesn't mind me saying this and it will go against his sense of modesty, but GrizzlyDevil lets me kind of, sort of, challenge him a little with the math. I know that in the numbers field he could...

    GDevil, that's a really good answer, and yes the numbers are pertinent, and I was hinting at variables, so I'll have to concede that you're the winner...This time.;)

    CVAC 2024 - Spring/Summer

    GrizzlyDevil, as always, thank you for another thought-provoking post. Sometimes numbers provide a lot of information about what has or will happen, but for some of the teams listed here, couldn't a considerable part of a team's production in certain catagories mean returning or losing only a...

    Boys Playoff Scores

    North Lincoln is a good team but Hickory has beaten them twice this season by 30 points and again by 21. Watched Hickory and North Lincoln in their last game on the NFHS Network and it looked like The Red Tornadoes plan A is to disassemble the defense and make the easy shot, which they did over...

    2A WEST PLAYOFF SCORES

    They sure do LTown. Like you, I too believe we would have won the conference with L.Smith. I'm grateful for the team's efforts during the time he's been out.

    2A WEST PLAYOFF SCORES

    Dad, I'm not sure it'll be over by halftime but we know who we're playing. I do appreciate you saying something and I believe you're right that L. Smith's play will be limited. LTown, you're right, he can play at top level. I think Dadof23 might have meant that he wouldn't be back to his own...

    Boys Playoff Scores

    I watched (on NFHS) East Gaston beat Shelby in overtime the other night. Knowing West is always good it doesn't surprise me because East Gaston looked to be really physical and the kind of team that could wear you down.

    Maiden Creek, I'm sorry your team lost. I was pulling for you because I know you support the Blue Devils with everything in you, and I know you pull for other CVAC teams when they're not playing Maiden. Just wanted to mention something I saw on the NFHS Network while watching the Bandys at...

    CVAC 2a Boys conference standings

    Maiden Creek, you might be right on LC being pretty good, and they might give the Blue Devils a workout. They have lost some games, though. Their worse loss was 108-56 to Lincolnton's best kept secret, The Combine Sports Academy, they're called the National Goats. Don't know why they call them...
