Looks like Max Preps drew straws on that gaggle of 2a teams ranked in the 30’s…..and Reidsville came out on top. 😜

CVAC projected 1st round opponents.
3. West Caldwell vs 30. West Stanly
11. Maiden vs 22. East Surry
15. Trinity vs 18. Newton Conover
2. Reidsville vs 31. Lincolnton
1 1/2 to 2 hour road trips for the visitors.
Surprisingly…..to me at least…Newton traveling to Trinity is the closest for all 4 of these games. I thought Trinity was with those flat landers down near the zoo!
Morning!…Kidd😉

If any of you guys want to ask me my opinion on those two freshman I think they should concentrate on basketball. Congrats on a great regular season.
Reidsville weak schedule will hurt them some in the deep rounds of the playoffs.
same old refrain..........just different sport...............guess we'll have to see how it all plays out..............................
Reidsville hasn't played a team outside the conference since Rockingham County on 1-7-23 so it will be interesting to see how the Rams stack up against the rest of the 2A world.
Their non-conference ledger is not all that impressive with the best wins over Burlington Williams (14-11) and Burlington Christian Academy (17-7). Rockingham, Western Alamance and Northeast Guilford were a combined 13-59 and Northeast had 9 of those 13.
The conference has some solid teams with Andrews, West Stokes and Morehead (all with 13 or more wins) and Walkertown isn't an easy out either. Also will be interesting to watch how those teams fare in the first round of the states. That will measure how good the conference is compared to the rest of 2A.
This will be only the third time in its storied history Reidsville has entered the state playoffs with an undefeated record. And only one of the 21 wins was by less than an 11-point margin.

At any level of basketball if you have a good point guard you have a good chance and Reidsville has that. Harrison will be a tough matchup and they have good players surrounding those two. In a one and done tournament anything can happen so we will see how it plays out.
Congratulations and Good luck to all teams that will be blessed enough to make the basketball playoffs/tournament when the brackets come out. Lets hope for some great basketball statewide!!
A JM Robinson squad with 6 losses will set the tone in 2a..take a gander at their schedule..and who all they lost to...
I do think reidsville schedule isn’t the strongest. Not necessarily weak, cause the conference isn’t bad. Reidsville was just missing a smith or Dudley type game on the schedule. I’ll say this the basketball team is better than the football strong schedule or not.
With the good young talent Reidsville needs to play Greensboro day, Mt Tabor just to challenge the team. When West Stokes had a good team they played Greensboro Day. They got beat but help get the team better
Yeah, usually the rams play good teams like that. They’ve played Dudley and smith recently even piedmont classical. Not sure why they didn’t play at least one of them this season, when it was known this was going to be a really good team
Season got off to a late start because of football playoffs and the conference schedule obviously had priority. The holiday tournament field wasn't the best and that's where the Rams could have picked up some good competition. Plus the scheduled game with Cummings was canceled due to road condition worries.
Maybe someone from Reidsville slipped them some Short Sugars BBQ when we weren't looking.
When will the brackets be released. I was figuring it would be today
Final RPI is out so shouldn't be too much longer.
It would have probably been released by lunch but a Charlotte conference got approval to finish there tournament today due to a player collapsing earlier in the week.
Yeah, if Alabama likes what you do on the football field, I think it's a no-brainer.The head coach of a team called the Alabama Crimson Tide begs to differ.
From what everyone is saying the kids are the real deal, but it is not necessarily a no-brainer in 2023. Dollars and cents are the driving factor these days while we all still yearn for the colors and names on the uniform. I hope they play as many sports as humanly possible and not become mercenaries at places like IMG Academy or Bishop Gorman. Finally, that certain head coach will be 75 years old in four more years.The head coach of a team called the Alabama Crimson Tide begs to differ.
I gotta say…..that 2a west bracket looks like a humdinger from start to finish.
There are some fantastic 1st round games….in fact….I’d say just about all of them are…with the exception of a couple….North Surry and Reidsville.
Oh lord…..Apologies to all my Lincolnton brothers….but I think Reidsville is real good.
I’d love to see who y’all would pick for all 16 games😂
Pick ‘em anyone?…I dare you!😂

Good Lincolnton loses by about 15. Bad Lincolnton has the ability to lose by 40.
My assessment is based on their scores this year. Good loses by about 12. Well we don’t want to talk about bad. I think Maiden and Lincolnton are the only CVAC teams to qualify for football and basketball?
Rams have a tough home environment. Every game has been packed Wall to wall
Dudley and Smith are low 3A seeds this year in the playoffs, didnt even when their conference, whats your infactuation with them lol
We've played them in the past and its a good gate. We've also not been successful against either in basketball. Its better than anyone on our non conference, other possible games are Page, Grimsley and Gw Danville. Greensboro Day would be a good one, Mount tabor. Just need to get one of the above on the schedule.
I'm so old I remember when Reidsville and Dudley were in the same conference along with Greensboro Grimsley...Rams used to drill both of those teams on a regular basis...........basketball used to be THE sport in Reidsville more so that even football............................
