Chris, I remembered the years they had before Carson was built. They had some good solid teams. I respect their program and would like to see them get back the use to be. I remembered the last really good season they had I seen them beat AL Brown back in 09 at their home stadium. I may even watch them play this year. HS just down the rd from me.Come on man!
In SE NC in the 4A ranks Ashley HS has to be one of the consistently worse programs in the state. In 19 years they have a 57-151 record, thats a 3-8 average record. They have 1 winning season in school history which was in 2004 when they went 8-5. They have 1 season with 5 wins which was their second best season. Things really have not progressed like everyone would have liked. Look at their stats from their 1st year to last year.

Demographics’ interest.Why is that? Back in 2015 Mooresville went to Ashley HS for a Baseball Tournament but I will say - Its a very large HS and Its baseball field was One of nicest i have seen but it is very large but Idk how their football field is but U would think Football would be a priority there since they have a nice facilities and they are large HS.
As mentioned, demographics are a factor. AHS demographics are similar to Hoggards. AHS has been able to complete is all the girls sports as well as boys basketball and baseball and many boy sports. Baseball has been really good until a few years back they have dropped off. Their facilities are great. As for football, they had some good players their first 5 seasons or so but because they didn't win the better talent has made their way to greener pastures. Just this year alone, NH's best WR and RB actually played at AHS before leaving. I thought Jeff Turner would be able to build something during his time but he just did not have the players. Not sure what the answer is. Someone is going to have to make a connection with the middle school kids about staying and building a program. Myrtle Grove Middle has great talent year in and year out so there is a chance. The record is misleading. AHS typically plays a weak non conf schedule trying to build the boys up before conf play, which I get. The MEC has been weak since the split conf was created. Most years they not only win just 3 games but they have one of the weakest scd in 4A. Its not just that they don't win, they don't compete against average or good teams.Why is that?

Carver isn't what it use to be
Asheboro isn't great
Elkin hasn't been much since early 2000s
didn’t Elkin win their conference last year?
A bit off the topic and not even the right sport but I will post the question here. I read or heard somewhere a few years back that the Westover baseball team had not won a single game in over 8 years before they finally broke that streak with a win. Does anybody know if this is actually true? If so I would imagine there were probably a number of forfeits in that streak and if true would that be the longest losing streak in all of NC high school sports?
