East Carteret is smaller than SWO by 200 kids with ADM of only 500. This conference was created with travel in mind for sure.Looks a lot different for eastern 2A teams. Swo in a 2a/3a split for the first time ever. Still lucky as ever with probably the weakest 2a or 3a conference in the state. Swo will be the smallest school in the conference by far. Swo will win every game by 30
Agreed. Very bad. Definitely will have to beef up non-conference games.This is horrible from a football standpoint for Burns, Shelby and Huss.

They would have been better off putting SWO in conf 19 and letting Richlands compete in they place lol... That would definitely make conf 19 the best in the state top to bottomLooks a lot different for eastern 2A teams. Swo in a 2a/3a split for the first time ever.

Never want to hear that Que is favoring Reidsville. Absolutely s*** conference. Bishop is only 1A with football. So they get a champions spot in playoffs every year.
Opportunities are worthless when no one will return the ADs phone calls. Of course, this draft is so badWeren’t we going to be in a bad conference regardless? Gives us more opportunities for big games in non conference
This is a joke. I keep reading that travel was considered and gates could be good in these conferences. Traveling to W-S and High Point won't save on travel and will those schools bring in gates?
Not a fan of this I understand West Caldwell going into the mtn but man those are some long drives from Patton n DraughnI think our conference is pretty weak outside of Mountain Heritage and Mitchell when they are up. Picking up Draughn, Patton and West Caldwell will only be good because it’s someone new. Our travel does and has always sucked
That conference is so Unfair I mean Shelby is going roll bc even when Burns is good 8/10 times Shelby will win and Huss is rebuilding so Shelby is going to roll so Of course Shelby isn’t going have a problem with the conference publicly anywayCrazy for Shelby and Burns to play teams in 1A. If they were going in a split con it should be 2A/3A. I'm sure Bessemer, Cherryville, and Highland Tech are thrilled.
This is a joke. I keep reading that travel was considered and gates could be good in these conferences. I can tell you one league where neither will be good. It's amazing how the Rockingham County schools do seem to get screwed. Traveling to W-S and High Point won't save on travel and will those schools bring in gates?
Welcome to Reidsville's world for the last several years....we always get blamed for being in a sh## conference....you play who NCHSAA says you do.....our so called new conference ain't no better than the old one...................Agreed. Very bad. Definitely will have to beef up non-conference games.
That one was pretty bad. It was Shelby, Chase, West Lincoln, Lincolnton, Maiden, Bessemer City and Cherryville. Maiden and Cherryville were the two 1A’s. But it wasn’t nearly as bad as this one would be.Woof at that conference for Shelby. Tried this one back in the 90’s and it was pretty unpleasant.
This would be good for Reidsville only 4 conference games and getting 6 non conference games.
Now that MM and Morehead will be in the same conference as Reidsville, it just means the AD will have to find 2 extra non conference games on top of being really bad at getting games for the Rams to begin with.
But maybe we can slip up and find decent games. I didn’t want a big conference, I wanted extra non conference games.
I’m not sure what conference we could have been in that would have been satisfactory. Why not just play the county schools and two others and call it a day.
A 2A/3A split , MM, Morehead, Reidsville, Rockingham, NE Guilford, Eastern Guilford makes better sense than anything.
The problem is, counties like Davidson and Randolph has ADs that are actually doing their diligence and you see how they all end up together just like last realignment Here in Rockingham County, no one gets along and wont work together to make things right.
Basically, Reidsville is gonna end up in a s***hole conference. Again.
Well that would have been the best option. The problem is it’s plenty of 3a teams in our area to match a conference. But 2a is bare
Another factor in the splits is the NCHSAA wanted to avoid having splits with the middle divisions. I don't think there are any 2A/3A splits. They are either 1A/2A or 3A/4A. There might be one somewhere because travel would have caused major issues were it not but at a glance I don't see any.
I would prefer to see SWO in a conference with WRH, JK, Clinton and East Duplin. Come playoff time, if you make the playoffs, you will be battle tested.
