For all the hard time we give East Burke people, the East Burke coach's wife deserves some credit and recognition I just saw that she's donating her kidney to a man in need in mountain view.
CVAC 2023 - Week 10

Don't sweat it. A winner is the bad guy no matter what. The comment about EB is true, but they do what they have to do with the talent they have. None better coached in the CVAC than those Cavaliers , IMO.
@Lincolnton I will give yall a little credit. That straight t formation y'all run for short yardage is a tough stop
Concerning one of the Maiden Coaches: To me, our (Lincolnton) coaching staff is great as were the staffs before them, but on this post I would like to say something about one of the Maiden Assistant Coaches. I've known this guy for a few years, now, and to me he is the the finest of people. He has an analytical mind, but understands the effects and gains of basic and time honored principles. Even more so, this coach is fair, honest and would serve as a role model for young people, and as a guide to a successful future for them. He is also an inspiration to old people like me. I'm not going to say his name because he has a sense of modesty, but if you're around him you'll recognize him by his character. Happy I got to talk with you last night. All the best to you, coach.
Well, you need to give us some credit since I'm still stinging from last night's loss.
And Lincolnton yellow and black really pops on their field but being out on their field it feels like squishy carpet.
But now the games over with my PET PUPS can go frolic and play the rest of the season. Until your devil Master calls upon y'all next time 😈🔱🐶

I hadn’t been to Lincolnton in about 8-10 years thought field was beautiful but the lighting felt dark then again maybe it was the shivering but I couldn’t see the ball lol
Also when did Lincolnton go from a more yellow and black helmet to a more gold and black ( I liked those helmets )

She and her husband are definitely Godly people
Godly family that has influenced the community in such a way that we’d never want him to leave. 2 wins but there’s a lot that’s beyond his control.
I feel like the pine trees surrounding the stadium makes it feel dark and helps funnel a cold wind into the stadium. And definitely don't feel like it's elderly friendly steep stairs and bleachers whenever ever @Lincolnton gets old they may have to assist him at the stadium 😂🤣😂🤣
I couldn’t agree more @Lincolnton, I know exactly who you are talking about! I’ve known him for a long time and he does possess all those fine qualities and more. I feel very blessed to know him and Maiden is definitely blessed to have him as a coach and mentor! You are also correct that his analytical mind knows more about football and tradition than most. Watching him coach is to see the man in his element!
I’ve heard LEDs are in the near future for the whole county. The lighting has weakened a little, but so have my eyes.
It does feel peculiar but I'm glad to get it, even if I miss the natural grass.
Well, anyway, it's good to see you up and crowing. Like me, you hate to lose, but you get plumb down and it's hard to get you back up before the devils next win.
The color of the helmets now are the original school color, black and gold. It's not a Shelby gold but more of a yellow/gold as best as I can describe it. The first time I noticed the yellow helmets here was in the late 80's or early 90's.

BlueSchool18, thanks for the comment.
I thought the field and the helmets were a good Lincolnton look. Hickory's colors are garnet and gold and we have a hard time from coach to coach to get the same gold color. Currently the gold is minimized except for the giant gold tornado at mid filed of our stadium and we're the Red Tornadoes.

Now, look what your doing, talking about pine trees, cold weather and old heads and such. I get it, it's a dig at our stadium and me. For your information, I walked up the step of both sides, from bottom to top, last night, and I'm not in the nursing home yet.
Thank you my friend. Those current white helmets look very natty. I like them. Before this year is over a lot of fan are going to be noticing the particulars of the Red Tornadoes, and mainly how their season was ended by them. Football is definitely back in Hickory.
Awesome what coach Minor’s wife is doing giving a life to someone with 4 kids that they Don ‘t know! What a testimony of Gods love!
Congratulations to the Blue Devils on a hard fought victory over my Wolves. This game was one of the better high school football games I have ever witnessed with both teams leaving it all on the field. Losing is never easy and it is even tougher in a close game, especially against the Blue Devils. Now the Wolves must regroup and get prepared for a really good West Lincoln team.
