That's what I was thinking would be the case. We also cant neglect the fact that we could possibly see a 2A/3A/4A split conference. I don't like it much but its a very real possibility for our area from what I have heard.
3A Numbers
- Thread starter Quemiscuous
- Start date
Not hardly.
And surprising coming from you.
The single biggest reason that Reidsville has more titles than Shelby is because of a rival association (WNCHSAA) or split classifications (2A-2AA)
And we have proven it.
Shelby has 4 State Championships when no rival associations or subclasses existed.
Reidsville has 1.
Head to head Shelby leads 4-2.
There have been several recent years where Shelby won Championships in split classes and Reidsville won in the other one.
Objective observers rated Shelby far superior in those seasons, but both Tltles count.
No, we are confident that it is the Reidsville faithful that have held their breath anticipating the realignment and would they be grouped with the Golden Lions.
We love it.
The proven best way for Shelby to soon surpass this bogus self proclaimed “ capitol (sic) “ is face to face.
The Golden Lions of Shelby High are the most successful, sustained, winningest football program in the state.
They are The True Dynasty.

Talked to a buddy over there, he'd rather be with ya'll then these teams that they've been playing
Probably makes more sense to not split 1a and 8a and have splits in 2a/3a, 4a/5a, 6a/7a.
Was you and your tag team partner in accident or out of the country the last two years during the playoffs. You sure were absent on here. Just wondering. I was relieved the other day when I saw your post.
I really think you are afraid of the Rams lately. You know you haven't done too well against us. What were the scores the last two meetings? Is one of your hobbies middle ages history. I now you aren't too well versed on modern history.
More than likely, Reidsville will go East. Assuming that happens, Shelby will have a cakewalk to the state every year. Biggest threats would be Mount Airy, Lincolnton, West Lincoln, East Rutherford (if they continue to get better), East Surry maybe. That's it.
1A will only have about 9 schools in the west that play football. 1 A will definitely be in split conferences and we'll most likely see 1A/2A combined playoffs
One thing strange to me about the numbers when I saw them the first time is how Monroe has been in 2A all this time with just shy of 1200 students. Yes, Union County is one of fastest growing counties in the state but that's crazy. Forest Hills and rest of the 2A schools in our conference have over 300 to 400 less students than they do. They even have 125 more students than current 3A Parkwood.
Good call, I actually hadnt looked at the 1a breakdown. With the proposed alignment Robbinsville may never lose another playoff game.
Thanks. If we played in a piss poor conference after getting beat by every good team we played but one we’d be at home for most of the games too.
Betty Crocker conference champs. Nothing but cupcakes.
I’d wish you good luck. But I would not mean it. I hope you get broke off here soon.
I'm not totally sold on Mount airy in this classification but also wouldn't count them out. They could give athletic fast wide open teams a fit by forcing them into a game of contrition. Slowing it down trying to break the other team. Really kind of like West Lincoln on steroids 🤣
