Shelby should thank Reidsville because of how we softened up McMichael for their first round game.
Actually, I wish ya'll luck. Neither of us had much to crow about last year. I however can get by without any retort from your
two hairy legged cheerleaders.

You said it not us. We aren't even thinking bout Reidsville, but see yall are of Shelby..
IMO the 3a. Is tougher the 4a this year...
Watch out for that Burns team

I’m not sure it might be about even. Maiden and Stuart Cramer both beat Lincolnton.

Im sure East is a fine football team
They have good young coach, that gets most out of players.
Shelby will need to cut the penalties down and shooting ourself in foot.
I saw maybe one of our best offensive game of year fri
But our D looked like it went backwards, but give Burns credit.
Hoping we come together this week, and start playing ball
Need a complete game..
Go Lions

Shelby must get by this week before we can even think about East. I have never seen so many stupid penalties

If you do play east next if yall get up and keep your foot on the gas they'll just quit and leave the game mid 3rd quarter like they did at Brevard last year in the playoffs 🤷‍♂️

I watched the game on YouTube. Game ended with 4 min left in 4th when coaches were tossed.

I've slept since then maybe it was the 4th still was one of the wildest endings of a game. Nobody had a clue what was going on
Thats what the comments on the video said. It was never explained here that I know of either.

Yes, I talked to a coach from Brevard and a fan that was there and said East truly just imploded and then literally quit. It just shocked them that East’s coaches would not only allow but actually condone giving up.

Yeah for me personally I know that coach has really turned east around but that game last year i know it didnt go there way after beating reidsville the week before and i certainly didn't expect us to pull away the way we did in that game. But I thought it was classless to give up and walk off in the way they did, but also you just condoned giving up and you screwed those seniors on your own team out of 4-5 minutes of playing time in what was probably the last game they'll ever get to play in. And they're going to make some noise in the playoffs this year to east is solid

I have gone to a lot of games over the years and off the top of my head I can only recall one head coach ever being ejected and that was West Caldwell's when we were playing them

I know there is grumbling no matter how you do the brackets- but I hate this year’s system. I also know this is a money making scheme… but the first round match-ups are sad- teams only winning 1 or 2 in the regular season playing in a state tournament??? And South Point being number 1 and Crest being 4 is stupid. I know it’s RPI over everything but really.

“Injection” is a whole different level of punishment. Referee’s like “That’s it! You’re getting the Truth Serum” 🤣

Sorry, the 6-year old in me couldn’t resist.

I heard a former high school school football coach make this statement the other night." You mean to say, it's the first week in November , high school football season, and the top 16 teams for each classification are not playing?" It does not make much sense to me either. The RPI is as good as the NCHSAA can up with to justify split conferences and unequal match ups. I don't like it being the sole reason for seeding. There should be consideration for Conference Champions at least!
