I RAN ACROSS AN ARTICLE ON ANOTHER SITE ABOUT THIS.MOST OF YOU DO NOT REMEMBER THIS ORGANIZATION OLE CT DOES.IT WAS AN IMPORTANT CHAPTER IN THE HISTORY OF HS SPORTS IN NC. JUST THINK OF WHO PLAYED IN THAT ORG. , WALT BELLAMY, BOBBY BELL SWEET LOU HUDSON, JIMMY RAYE THE QB FROM MICH .STATE IN THE 10-10 TIE AGAINST ND AMONGST OTHERS .AS A CHILD I REMEMBER WATCHING GAMES AT KAFER PARK IN THE BERN. JT BARBER WARRIORS COACHED BY SIMON E ( BUTTERBALL) COATES.I READ FEW ARTICLES ABOUT THE 66 EASTERN CHAMPIONSHIP GAME BETWEEN HILLSIDE AND BARBER. I WAS THERE A LOT OF THE PLAYERS I KNEW BECAUSE WE ALL LIVED IN THE SAME NEIGHBERHOOD. THEN WE PLAYED DUDLEY THE FOLLOWING WEEK ENDED IN A TIE . I WAS THERE TOO. WITHIN THE NEXT 2 YEARS OR 3 .IT WAS ALL OVER. ON FRIDAYS IT WAS BIG THING WATCHING THE WARRIORS PLAY DILLARD OF GOLDSBORO, DARDEN WILSON, PW MOORE ELIZ. CITY, BT WASHINGTON OF R.M., LIGON OF RALIEGH. EE SMITH OF FVILLE.HANGING WITH THE ELDERS, WITH THE BANDS A PLAYING WATCHING MY OLDER FRIENDS PLAY. IT WAS A WONDERFUL TIME. I SAVED THE BEST FOR LAST . THE GAME WE WANTED TOO WIN THE MOST WAS AGAINST THOSE HATED PIRATES OF ADKIN HIGH FROM K-TOWN THOSE WERE OUR ARCH RIVALS. THOSE WERE THE DAYS ANY ONE ELSE OLD ENOUGH OF THIS RELIVE THIER YOUTH. PS I WOULD LOVE TO GO TO A HILLSIDE AND DUDLEY GAMES
