Charger,
(OK this is going to be a little long but, you wanted info so here it is) Havelock graduated 9 Seniors from last years team. 7 starters returned on both sides of the ball 2014. 7 Starters should return next year on Offense and 6 on Defense. 2008 was JB's first year at Havelock. They won more games that season (8-4), with many of the same players, than the previous 3 seasons combined (7-26). Without a doubt prior to 08 it was coaching. During JB's tenure Havelock is 90-12 in 7 seasons with 6 Conference Championships and 3 State Championships. The only team to beat Havleock, thus far, in the past 4 years is New Bern (2012, 2014). Prior to that the last team to beat Havelock was Eastern Alamance in the Eastern Finals 2010. During the same 7 years the JV team is 64-4 with 5 undefeated seasons to include the last 4 in a row with a 42 game win streak. 3 Freshman are already D1 prospects.... Yes, I know it's just the JV but, where else do you reload from????? Some of us don't get 4 quality transfers from a rival school...lol....easy Rulz.... just poking some fun....... As for the rest of this season; Havelock is not just jumping to the Finals. They have an opponent this week and that is the focus. One game at a time. Play hard and hope everyone stays healthy... As for teams Havelock has played this year; New Bern (#1 Seed 4A East 12-0 Conf. Champ), Washington (#1 Seed 2AA East 11-1 Conf. Champ), NS Jacksonville (#3 Seed 2AA East 9-3 Conf. Champ) West Carteret (#7 Seed 3A East 9-3), Kinston (#8 Seed 2AA East 7-5).
So there it is.... Last year was last year..... prior to 08 was prior to 08. This is 2014 with a different team but the same focus. Win one week at a time.... Just do your part to "Hold the Rope" "We all we got, We all we need". GO RAMS....
