    WNC 1a to Mars Hill

    I love to see these WNC guys, and the 1A guys in particular, get a chance at the next level. The Lions have had a strong program the last several years, and have a stable, steady (probably the one of the longest tenured staffs) group of coaches, and very nice updated football facilities. They...

    2022 1A Girls Basketball Thread

    That MHHS v RHS game was a much better game than the score indicated. Stayed a 1, 2, or 4 point game pretty much throughout. MHHS was up by 5 or 6 late and the Tigers had to foul. The Cougars did a great job of knocking down their FTs to close out the game. Good game, good atmosphere at Rosman...

    2022 1A Girls Basketball Thread

    Rosman has a strong squad again this year. Looking forward to seeing them get after it this season!

    Rosman looking for a new coach

    Not saying it will not ever happen some undetermined and unknowable number of years in the future for some other reasons but throwing around consolidation based off of the win / loss record of one particular sports team isn't exactly sound reasoning.

    Round 4 - Draughn @ Andrews

    Appreciate it, SMC brothers. Hopefully we will get our program turned back around and get to be part of these conversations again sooner than later! Good luck to Andrews!

    Rosman

    More than overall growth in the county though is that the families that raised their kids here and built some very good football and other athletic teams over the years reached a point that they aged out, the kids moved off the raise their kids some place else and never came back (couldn't...

    Rosman

    The lack of jobs also prevents generational families from staying there. That is how sports traditions dry up in a small town.

    Murphy defensive coordinator moving on..

    Coach Nelson is a class act, and I am sure he has been a big part of Murphy's recipe for success for quite some time. Best of luck to him in his new chapter.

    SMC JV Finale

    I think Rosman had some key guys out for both games. Not sure it would have changed the outcome, but the scores were certainly a bit more lopsided. They had a nice season despite some pretty significant injury issues and the shifting sands of COVID world.

    Rosman 2021 Fall

    The mileage totals are pretty similar in the new conference and the SMC, but the "kind" of miles are very different in most cases. Easier travel. Less travel time. To be honest, I feel like it was travel for middle school sports that pushed Rosman out. The additional trips to Hiwassee Dam...

    Murphy- Hiwassee Dam-Andrews consolidation

    There is no way Brevard willingly goes into a split 1A/2A SMC. Travel is the whole reason Rosman isn't there anymore. The Rosman folks made those trips for almost 20 years while listening to the Brevard people complain about having to drive "all the way" to Sylva or Franklin.... no way they go...

    SMC week 5!

    Cold Biscuit - I'd call the school and ask - (828) 862-4284. Stadium has a pretty high capacity, so I don't think it would be a problem.

    Lady Knights SMC Champs

    Seems obvious at this point. There are plenty of them around to form their own division come playoff time.

    Lady Knights SMC Champs

    I also think Rosman will be tough for several years to come, but of course I am a little biased being a Tiger fan. I hate that we are switching conferences in the middle of a strong run for our program. I am not sure what to expect in the new conference, but it seems like there are some strong...

    This week in the SMC

    Rosman girls team is very young as well. SMC girls overall are going to be tough the next few years. Lots of talent coming back next season on a bunch of teams.

    Rushing Numbers Don’t Lie in the SMC

    And if they actually get a shot, to get in and to STAY 1A kids (shoot, all kids for that matter) need to remember these more than anything else that has been mentioned. 1) Better have your grades right and be prepared for college academically. 2) Be ready to work hard, swallow your pride...

    South Robeson closing ...

    when you aren't legally bound to provide child nutrition services or provide transportation and buses, and can select the students that attend your school, possibly reducing the number of special needs students and state mandated programs, then it is a little easier to see how the charters do...

    2018 ALL SMC

    tackles as a stat are very unreliable... some schools only count solos, some tally solos and assists together, some count solos as "1" and assists as a "half" and add them up that way, etc... but the coaches pour over every game film looking for weak links and advantages... they know who is a...

    Robbinsville @ Murphy

    Not sure about his whole career, but I know he was in the SMC that year mentioned above in '98.
