West Charlotte at Hickory

Hickory by 10 is what Rowdy is saying

Plus he said WC Coach looks absolutely ridiculous with dread locks, its at least better than the man bun he used to sport he said also

I told him he seems like a really good dude, but he said "we will see whos laughing when is over " and sent me this saying it was the West Charlotte mascot

A man should never talk about another man behind his back. That's boy and girl behaviors. Which one are you?

If you can pressure Stober and not allow him to escape the pocket that to me is key to limiting that offense. Crest did it for a few possessions but couldn't the whole game.
I am biased being from CC but Crest got away from what was working in the second half or they could very well be playing WC this Friday. I doubt WC cares too much about the film on NL as far as how they played the triple option so I would imagine they would watch the Crest film. Crest had it figured out in the first half. The second half they got a little too pass happy on the deep ball and that is ultimately what killed them. Others may not see it that way but that's what I saw. WC may win this game by a few scores but they will not shut out Hickory. I expect a high scoring game and an entertaining one.

So if it's boy and girl behavior it basically covers the entire gender spectrum.
For Example:

Person A - " I like Cheetos"
Person B - "Man what a loser, only boys and girls eat Cheetos"
Person A - "WTF???"

See... Made no sense right?

Everyone for the most part seen it that way….

Don't get me wrong, I am not saying Crest would have won because the dynamics change in a close game. I am just saying I think that game would have been extremely close had Crest continued to run the offense the same and avoided the home run. Hickory is a solid team and have had one hell of a run but this Friday they will have to play perfect and have some help along the way. They are here for a reason so anything can happen.
 
Doesn't matter to me whether WC wins or Hickory gets shut out or anything like that, I just hate seeing misinformation and people talking past each other. So, here are facts all pulled from the link I supplied below (other people posted similar info while I was looking this up.)

WC had 1577 students at the time of reclassification. While not a lot of students, it is squarely in 4A territory if realignment had been done by ADM only. However, in their infinite wisdom and in a spirit of social justice (which doesn't always provide equity, but that's not a topic for here right now) the NCHSAA chose to use Wachovia Cup points and Free or Reduced Lunch numbers in a formula to come up with the classifications. By my quick and dirty count, there were 21 schools with smaller ADMs than WC that were classed as 4A. I'm not going to county the number of 3A schools with higher ADMs than WC but with the provided link you can if you would like.

I have mentioned previously that WC had around 1600 actual students at that alignment but the ones that saying they didn't just don't understand the formula used got them to the numbers they believe. Also, I already knew the first number reported out were incorrect for WC this year, the numbers I had came directly from the number of actual students from the person over attendance for the school. There was know adding numbers for future growth, that's simply not how reporting works. Sometimes there's no convincing when people go off what they heard verses actual facts.

End note, WC, bring the championship back to the 704, it's going to be a tall task and believe you will be surprised at the overall team speed of HKY and can't say enough about the QB.

Hey Opie,

Anyone that has been here longer than November 25th of this year knows what I was doing, and probably laughed, but some newbie rolls up in here getting all defensive like most of you bedwetters do....
 
ngl all the crying about adms is funny to see when ppl didnt care about charlotte catholic robbing us from 2 state titles 😂 and shouldn't even be playing in the public school playoffs
We've beat them 3 out of the 4 times we've played them. Twice in the Western Championship.

Havelock should get tougher or learn how to cope while being soft.
 
so they should get tougher or learn how to cope being soft instead of crying about adms and beat WC
yes,

we beat West Charlotte last year too.. Same ADM's . They were very good, they're better this year, they're moving up after this year, so win or die trying. It's really that simple.

How about this: Your coaches coach your kids up to play whoever is in front of them and help them to learn how to meet any obstacle in their way with hard work and strong character, and the adults in the position to make the world as fair of a place as they can go do that.

In the meantime, we're mostly just goons with keyboards on a message board so we can whine or cry or try to suggest a utopian world and it probably changes very little (except those of you around here who actually do have a say in things, you're more like goons with a title and I hope you do great things).
 
West has one task,I have watched your last 2 games online....the other teams shot themselves in the foot by missing easy passes and not running straight at you...Hickory will eat your defense up if you let them....Dont look at the last game against NL....Hickory was comfortably ahead with 4 minutes left and started adding 2nd string in and it almost cost them...Crest had Hickory figured out and then they fell apart....These are 16,17,and 18 year old young men..you have to jump on Hickory early and alot because if it is close at half,they will figure you out...

If you have WC figured out already by watching the last two games then HKY should as well. There shouldn't be any adjustments they'll need to make.
 
Didn't say I figured WC out...just saying that just like Crest and NL,,,the 2 teams that WC played shot themselves in the foot also...I still believe West will pull it out but a lot closer than people think...Some of the West fans are making the team sound indestructible...they have 2 close losses...might have 3 🫡

Nope, they're not immune to losing. This year is one for us to grow on. With a roster full of sophomores and juniors we're just happy to get back to respectability.

However, I will add that the last two games we played in we're on grass, the speed will show up even greater on that turf tomorrow night being that we practice and play on turf. It'll be an exciting game.

This is going to be an interesting game. I believe that you have the two 3A teams that consistently played high level ball all season. Despite all the talent that is on the field for WC and Hickory, both teams are in the western finals because of their quarterbacks. I knew Stober was a dude last season but the play of the WC quarterback has been impressive. This should be a heck of a game for awhile but ultimately I believe the Lions overall size, speed, and physicality on both sides of the ball will wear on the Red Tornadoes. Coach Glass will have a good game plan and Stober will keep them in it, WC will be too much for Hickory in the end. I think Dub-C pulls it out by 10-14pts.
