trivia fact...last nite was the first time Reidsville has played HP Central since 1962 (a 14-6 HP win)…....Either one of those 1962 teams would have easily beaten this years HP Central team...……………………...
Here is some more trivia I doubt anyone else remembers. Or was even alive to remember.
In 1955 High Point Central visited Reidsville. HP featured great RB Cornell Johnson and Reidsville had All America RB Donnie Coker. Reidsville coming off 1954 state championship.
Here is the trivia. Huge storm at Kiker Stadium Friday night postponed game until Saturday night. Of course, I was there both nights. Coker went on the play for UNC and later Georgia Tech as a punter after Big Jim Tatum died of rocky mountain spotted fever and Coker tore his ACL which in those days was a career ender. I don't remember what happened to Johnson.
