CVAC 2023 - another solid season

Yeah I like this conference besides west Caldwell 😂. But depending on how the numbers bounce next year I could possibly see Foard being same classification as us. Which could replace one of Lincoln county schools. Then leaves 1 open spot if keep same size conference. Maybe Patton
Patton. Wow, what is that school good at? Obviously not football but there must be something wrestling? Swimming? Lol.

All y'all Burke County schools might want to be careful next year yall might lose a lot of players to freedom and their new head coach 🤣

There will be strong loyalties to coach minor. Good guy that can really coach. Just not much you can do bout injuries. Patton and maybe West Caldwell lose a couple or a few to them. Who knows Draughn might have a guy or 2 as well. EB just too much border space

J.k. Adkins back to back state championships could go a long ways to convincing y'all's kids to go up I-40 a little further to freedom 🤷🏼‍♂️ 🤣

Can’t say they won’t be kids on board with Adkins that’d roll in from other schools to get seen espacially if it starts working out but not sure it’d all happen in one season. Is this a Tom Knotts kinda guy? Knotts was good but kids moving in from other schools to play for him made him shine the more

Resume and perception go a long ways with impressionable young kids 🤷🏼‍♂️
 
In all seriousness I don't think it affects East Burke very much I can see a battle between draughn and freedom in that category.

He will have Mt. Airy and Morganton hating each other before it's over. Then he'll have all the Burke County teams hating each other. :)

Draughn roster had players that were suppose to be at Freedom not to worried about EB losing players to Freedom Draughn try to get a couple of EB players to transfer this pass season but thank goodness parents call their bluff!!

I figure this could affect draughn and their performance moving forward
 
Draughn may be in a drought for 2 or 3 years in the win column. Too much gone to graduation this year. It happens. A LOT gone from EB this year but we do have kids stepping up from an improve as they go JV team that got better as the season went. Hungry kids ready to grow and play. Said it before, ain’t predicting anything cause you seen what happened when we fans done that this year.

You are right no predicting this year. I think with Vue at QB as a Jr we can open up the offence a little more this year. This offence has had a 2000-yard passer back at Princeton and a 1000-yard passer at Foard just not at EB. You have to have the right players in place to run some of the play's fans want us to run!! Love all the want to be play callers sometimes we have in the stand!!

East Burke gotta learn to defend the deep pass and tackling athletes before we get into contender talk

Long way to go before contender talk but seems best chance for them if that was to ever happen is this year. I said that bout this past season too yet nobody plans for that many injuries to key players. I mean really not THAT many key players. You know we were hurting when players was running the ball that wasn’t even on the depth chart or gong out for a pass that prob wasn’t on that depth chart either lol

I think with a few breaks y'all could be middle of conference next year. Especially if west Lincoln running back leaves, they also graduated all their starting line. So could be a downturn for them. Bunker Hill is a playoff team as long as Willis is there. I think lincolnton will be decent losing 70% of offense production with QB graduating. I figure bandy's will be same as last year. Newton will be a mystery until we see how coach runs the program.
 
All the lincoln county people got a question ❓. How much do y'all think Lincoln charter starting a football program ran by Mike byus former east Lincoln championship coach is gonna effect y'all. They started middle school program last year and talking about high school program this coming year. How many kids do you think he ends up taking them y'all.

I am of the opinion that it will hurt East Lincoln and North Lincoln more than it will us and West Lincoln.

I don't really see it hurting West Lincoln at all they have a program that is built tailored for their certain set of skills and abilities that doesn't really work anywhere else. Lincolnton has more pure athletes and I could see them coming after them
 
Byus is not starting this program to look bad or lose he's going to be like at east Lincoln do whatever to win.

Maybe they will, maybe they will not. Does not mean that the players will go. Geographically it does not make sense for kids in Lincolnton as that is a 30 minute car ride and a good majority will not have the means to make the trip daily. As I stated before, LC will have more of an impact on East Lincoln and North Lincoln. One should expect them to target kids in the Sherrills Ford area as well.
 
Yea, NL, EL, and Bandys kids. Maiden line isn't too far either. Could Maiden get Maidened by Lincoln Charter. 🤣🤣👍🏽

I believe there is a LC building heading to West Lincoln. Is that for certain grades? Just curious if kids that play sports take a bus to Denver or how that works
Always been curious about that

Across county lines lol. They want a high school program this year but will probably only be at JV
 
So which school houses athletics ?? They have 2 locations one in proper Lincolnton and one in Denver ?? If it's one in Denver yeah could be an option to help overcrowding at bandy's also
 
AMD, Don't know if you've been by Lincoln Charter (Lincolnton campus), lately, but the facility looks like it has grown more every time I go by. Originally, there were a couple of metal buildings and a mobile unit, but now it's much bigger.
Ten or fifteen years ago you would see a couple of their busses come through town going to and from the Denver campus... Driving by it the other day I noticed there were a long line of them.

I'm a public schools guy, but the way this charter school has grown, (having passed Lincolnton and West Lincoln's enrollment, according to the 23-24 ADM's) and given how a new one seems to open every year in the lake area (Huntersville-Cornelius-Davidson) in particular, I worry that it might be the way public education is heading.

Hey, wait until they open up a charter school there, and give it a grandiloquent name like Maiden Creek Classical Lyceum of the Arts, Sciences and Guaranteed success.

*Flyrod, you'd mentioned whether students playing sports take the bus to Denver, I'm pretty sure that's correct.

We better hope they aren't overcrowded. Out of that overcrowded crowd comes athletes.

Denver campus. There is also talk of another charter being built on the east end to help with overcrowding at LC.

I went to the Lincolnton game last night and watched your boys beat my Maiden boys….AGAIN!

Actually both games last night were very entertaining to watch. Good luck to your Wolves the rest of the way.

We planned to eat at Vittles before the game but it was closed. We ended up over at Goodwood Pizzeria. I was floored at how good that pizza was.

I’m one of those who believe pizza is all the same no matter where you go….but I was wrong….Goodwood has it going on!
I’ll definitely be back.

Just wanted you to know!😉
