    I could see this happening. Especially if Starmount spends too much time thinking about how good they should be.

    Mountain Valley Conference 2026

    I feel like East Wilkes is being a little overlooked. Obviously Starmount is the favorite with all they return, but I think East could be really dangerous and possibly a top 5 team in the state. Alleghany will probably still be gritty and tough as nails. Win or lose whoever they play better...

    Ronnie Millsap and Stevie Wonder can both see that Tarboro is #1 until proven otherwise.

    Sure. When the 1a /1aa split happened and Elkin went on a run in the early 2000s, I saw a t-shirt after Elkin's 2002 win that said "congratulations on being the 3rd best team in your conference."

    You don't think 6-3 in 9 years is different than 45-0? I also wonder what the East vs West record is across all divisions for the last 50 years. Also, that big dog is Tarboro looking at everyone else through a window, not a mirror. Nobody on the planet is dissing Tarboro. They are on the...

    Because Tarboro is an outlier. 6-3 vs the west champion in the 9 you selected is still 9-0 vs the second best in the east. North Stanley might have been able to beat East Surry in 18, but they are a western team that got placed in the east. Pender might have had a shot at Mitchell in I think...

    Yes, there have been outliers. I once knew a guy with 6 toes on his left foot. Doesn't mean men have 6 toes on their left foot. Every once in a while there is an eastern team that isn't named Tarboro that could play dead in a cowboy movie, but it isn't often and overall depth of teams is...

    I just took 5 minutes and looked up the eastern playoffs for the last 7 years. Only one game in 7 years was less than double digits in favor of Tarboro. '23 East Bladen. Tarboro will blow through the east like they are a wet napkin even if they have a little bit of a down year. Part of that is...

    In the west we hear it every year. For a while it was MIC and now it's Corvian and CSOD. The private/charters from Charlotte to Lake Norman are always going to be better on paper than the public schools. They just don't like getting hit when it's below 45 degrees.

    Where do you see things like that? I will be surprised the day I see an eastern 2a team cause Tarboro to at least break a sweat.

    You think the team with the big bruiser of a running back was at more of a disadvantage than the team that likes to throw deep shots while playing in the mud? Is this your first time watching football? I think Murphy was a better team and probably would have won a close game anyway. Probably...

    Of course. Forfeits cost the school money.

    Congrats to Elkin Tennis - 4 State Titles in a Row - 12th Overall

    The crazy part is the years they didn't win since the mid 90s, they were still top 2 or 3 for many of them. Just an absolute unit of a program.

    B.W. Holt inducted into NCHSAA Hall of Fame

    It's crazy that with some of the teams he had, he only won championships in 8 man. Phenomenal program builder that struggled to win the big one.
