Unproven Enka takes a nice little ride to middling West Rowan. Enka is unbeaten in 5A and the streak continues this week. West Rowan is a solid team but this Jets team is different. The falcons won’t be ready for our physicality. Jets 27-Falcons 14
Enka @ West Rowan

I feel like this is rage bait or satire
This game I’m planning on going to. I’m not far from West Rowan high school. Intriguing matchup for me since I never seen Enka play before. Any fans from Buncombe Co coming down to see this game. Any info on Enka and what kind of team they have.
This looks to be a fun week ahead... Fireworks in Mt.Ulla Friday YALL !!!!!!!!
I’m just telling you… Enka plays a different style of football.
Tobo's Dinner in Cleveland is now open on Fridays from 4pm to 8pm. Located on HWY 70 about a mile away from West Rowan High.
One of the best football games I’ve ever seen was 2009 Asheville west Rowan. Having said that, west Rowan’s football stadium is worse than terrible.
physically ain’t gonna get you no where when no one on your offense runs under a 5.0 40yd dash. Gimme the falcons by 30As a Mnt football fan, not sure it’ll be 30 but I’d be shocked with a Enka win!
West Rowan by 21.... Run game is very strong and they defend the run well.
Actually now that I think of it, that 2009 Asheville west Rowan game was 2 undefeated teams against each other in the third round that included 4 shrine bowlers and 2 juniors that went to play in the nfl
I'll wait on the Notre Dame/Pisgah fan to weigh in with some insults before I provide a prognostication. But Enka should send some folks down the mountain to at least support the poor old pitiful Jets.
Wildcat, I agree on the domer. Enka may not win but there will be support in the stands. They will play their game win or lose with no excuses and back the coaching staff as they know more about plays and schemes than any of the coaches in the stands.
As mentioned earlier the seating at West Rowan is pathetic. Enka fans will be in for a rude awakening.
Good thing Enka is not playing at South Iredell. Visitor side is small and outdated. But I hear they will be bringing in more bleachers. West Rowan has South Iredell beat as far as the stadium stand go.
Both of those stadiums could use some major overhaul.
Not only are the bleachers awful but it smells like sewage!! Haven’t forgotten that smell since the last time I was there in 2016.
But it doesn’t matter if they play at Lambeau Field, a cow pasture, or the parking lot of the Chick-fil-A in Morganton. Enka is coming to run it right down your throat. Better buckle those chin straps tight.

The 2009 playoff game with Asheville n West Rowan. WR won 28-14 then next week West Rowan played Tuscola. I was at that game. WR won 38-29. It’s was a hard fought game and it was close until WR could pull it out late in 2nd half. Then WR advanced to the 3A State Title game.
I think there’s a small waste pumping station right behind the visitors bleachers.
Yes....Enka plays a very basic, well-known brand of football.
W. Rowan aren't world beaters. We will see how physical they are.
WR has some big boys, if Enka is looking for a battle in the trenches they found one. This will be a good game!
Again, I say this as a Mnt football fan, I just don’t see Enka winning this game. Huge turnaround for them and props for the program + a very passionate fan base. They got blown out by Asheville & TC. They probably should’ve lost to Pisgah and barely beat a very young Reynolds team. If they can keep this a two score game (10-14) points, it would be a win for them. Maybe I’m wrong, but I just don’t see it.
My kids better be ready tomorrow night... Enka's not coming down the mountain to surrender... WE WILL BUCKLE UP REAL TIGHT !!!!!
I looked up on Max Preps roster and if it is correct it was showing Enka has 30 players and West Rowan 54. Interesting to see the difference between 2 teams.
I remember the 2010 western finals at WR. During warmups I said West Rowan doesn't look that big they had about 40-50 kids out there. Then there lineman came out 
I was at that game. They played Hibriten. Hibriten was the real deal at that time. Hibriten had WR on the ropes most of the game. I remember that trick pass play WR did. They took the lead for good. I remembered it was really cold that night.I remember the 2010 western finals at WR. During warmups I said West Rowan doesn't look that big they had about 40-50 kids out there.

West Rowan has always had big linemen on both sides of the ball.
Yeah congrats to Enka and the community for a good season. But they only beat one team with a winning record and that was Cherokee. I hope they win but I think it could be a long night.
I have a good feeling about West Rowan program next season. They are pretty much young this year. They have around 20 Jrs. 10 sophomores and 1 freshman. They have good chance of making it to the 3rd rd.
Offense gets 4 downs to make a first down and Enka will use all of them. 2.5 yards per run moves the sticks. Not very exciting but has been successful for them this year.
This game has my interest, if I wasn’t at another game I would be at this one.
