CVAC 2024 - Round 1 (projections)

I have the Trojans winning two games before Shelby; however, if MP has any athletes, well....you know the outcome. Good luck to all....I'm ready for basketball....lol
It appears Mt. Pleasant struggles against good teams that can throw and catch. ie South Stanly.
Mt. Pleasant beat them 35-30 but the Rowdy Rebel Bulls threw the ball all over the place for almost 400 yards. Robinson lit them up too.

I will say…when Maiden played the Tigers a couple years ago….they were one hard hitting bunch. Very tough team. They always are.

West Lincoln will have their hands full this coming Friday night.

We’ll see.

Big Red, sorry about your team opting out. Hope for a better situation next season.
Appreciate the kind gesture my friend. Not sure what the situation was. Told Wilson is keeping an eye on the situation but some players have moved on to winter sports. But I saw RS Centrals schedule, definitely wasn't an easy schedule either. Will probley go to see Lincolnton beat Maiden on Friday or maybe catch Bandys at CSD.

I'd love to shake your hand after the game

Nice work. I know these computers haven’t watched the teams play, but Bandys as a big favorite is a surprise to me.
 
I'd love to shake your hand after the game
Finally got an answer. Per NC coaches... RS Central was chosen over Newton Conover for final brackets, strength of schedule RPI was a little tougher than ours. So NCHSAA made the decision. Wilson said we would have played them... Some of the players have moved on to winter sports.
 
Nc RPI was 0.43279
RS Central was 0.42740.
Newton had higher RPI and Newton by far had the harder schedule.
But did hear kids moved onto winter sports and didn't wanna continue the season.

I don't think the NCHSAA made this decision. SOS does not override the RPI.
 
And congrats to the Charter System. A couple of decades in, they finally caught up to the "performance" levels of the public schools around them😂.

And the Legislature is dead set on wrecking it all with paid "school choice".
 
Word is that one of those good little devils is looking south. All speculation, but Interesting. Another classic added to the books this Friday!
Probably the same speculation that a good little wolf is looking north. Maybe they know each other and are both trying to pull the other?

Either way. We both have what we have coming into this Friday. That cold creek will be a hot spring with the packed house that should be there. Nothing like playoff football!
 
Sorry! Wolves…..I must ask this….something I noticed at the JV game on my last visit….will there be City Lunch hot dogs at this game Friday night?

Trust me on this!….the Maiden fans will need to know before arriving…..or this could get ugly!😂
We no longer have City Lunch hot dogs. I think City Lunch decided to give it up. I haven’t eaten at concessions this year, so I can’t even say what’s good and what isn’t. But it’s a bummer.

Burgers, Hot dogs, chicken tenders, Bologna sammiches, fries, rings, pizzas, nachos...all prepared before your eyes! Good stuff!

Usually start with a few hundred City Lunch dogs, prepared at the City Lunch, by the hands of the 3rd gen owner of the City Lunch... She's no longer onsite, but the food crew is pretty stout.

Visitor side will be taken care of.
 
I didn’t realize we had pre-made City Lunch dogs. I’ll get there early and eat a couple.

Another thing the Maiden fans (and anyone else coming) do need to know is that we have new metal detectors and the process of getting in the gate is similar to Newton-Conover’s. It’s very slow. Get there early to avoid missing kickoff.

I look forward to it. Should be a big crowd and a nice gate.

Side Note: GDevil, you mentioned the cold creek. About an eighth of a mile up this creek is the confluence of Walker Branch and Clarks Creek, creating three separate banks. Unlike the rest of the creek there isn't a tree canopy and the sun shines on the water making it feel noticeably more comfortable. Strangely enough, the confluence is still, and creates a natural pool with a sandy bottom. Kids from my side of town used it as a swimming hole for decades. Unfortunately, there was a drowning there in 1973 and don't think it was used as much after that.

I mention this since you being in a complicated field of work, would have studied hydrology. Always wondered why the water was not swift, there at that spot. The angle is a little less than 90°, and about a hundred feet downstream the water speeds up. Don't know what condition it is in now. Been a long time since I've been there and heard some people were living in that area, now, but I ramble on...We'll be looking for the Blue Devil nation, Friday night.

They'll probably let all the Maiden fans pass on by, but they're going to wand AMD. LOL
 
Be nice for @amaidendevil to get a picture with all the Maiden and Lincolnton posters. If time, get all the 🧩
Flyrod, since you mentioned that, a couple of weeks ago at Maiden, I walked down to the fence and spoke with AMD. LTownWolves stopped by and another Wolves alumnus who had played on one of our teams that won a title. I introduced him and AMD, who is just a few years younger than the Lincolnton guy... They got to talking about still feeling the aches and pains from their days of playing on the line, that they still have, even now. Thought to myself, "That's dedication to two old established programs, and I doubt if either one of them regrets it." Now, there's my plug for AMD, for the week. Uh wait, I meant the month.

I reported that to the moderator. You are past your AMD plug limit, sir.

We once played a team at their place, who left the snarling/barking dog soundtrack playing nonstop, the whole game.

I think the wolf howl should receive similar treatment this week.

Just a thought...

Any thoughts, OC?

That wolf y'all got howling is so old and sick, it would probably die by halftime. I've been waiting for years for someone to put it out of its misery 🤣
