Best SRO Game of all 3 MVAC/NW/WPAC conferences 9/15/17.
This standing room only annual rivalry game 1A Mount Airy vs 2A North Surry goes back to1959 and there will be no better game in 50 miles .There has crowds pack over 5,000 in the old Floyd Poore stadium & Wallace Shelton stadium with standing room onlyThey both were once 3A back in the late 60s., 70s and maybe early 80 before their classifications started to drop. North Surry never dropped below 2A and Mount Airy dropped to 2A then 1A . These 2 teams are only about 3 miles apart. Moount Airy a city school and North Surry 1 of 3 county schools. Surry County has 3 county schools and 2 city,Mount Airy & Elkin.This game is always standing room oly only compaired to the Mount Airy vs East Surry regular season finally of which is usually for the conference championship.These kids go to some of the same Churches hang out together , but come Friday night it is as though they are at war. Here's wishing for a safe injury free game.Also I failed to mention, both teams come in with a 4-0 record.
