What are your thoughts. They must be pretty good or they wouldn't be in the 3rd round. The Pack may have their hands full in this one. I look for the defense to really step it up if we pull this one out.

Really need to reduce the penalties if you want to continue to advance in a close game those could send us to the basketball gym. Also #3 needs more touches. in my opinion, reverses, bubble screens, anything to get him in space and use his speed. Also regardless of who it is on the kicks if you can CATCH the doggone football and don't give up valuable field position. That's exactly what a Fair Catch allows you to do.
Any long time Whiteville fans on here remember traveling up here to Union County (Marshville) about this time of year 40 years ago for a game in the freezing cold? Ever since then I've tried to keep up with how y'all do each year down there. Great teams.
2A championship 1984 @ Forest Hills! I remember it well. Cold is an understatement. Just before game time helicopter from tv station landed and really spiked the wind chill. Long cold drive back to Whiteville after a 14-6 defeat.
We honored that FH team at halftime of our last regular season home game this year. Didn't Whiteville win it the next season? We played for the 3A title that following year but lost.
IMO all time best team 85 got upset in a monsoon to White Oak. 86 lost Eastern championship to Ahoskie 33-31. 87 team finally struck gold 14-12 vs Thomasville.
