    Not sure until July 1, that is when things become clear, is my understanding.

    Max Preps 3a Rankings

    Another rating services has it this way. About the same names but a little shuffling of order. List last year's records but this year's projection. 1 Northeastern (15-1) 2 Shelby (11-3) 3 James Kenan (12-2) 4 Mount Airy (13-1) 5 Walkertown (8-4) 6 Whiteville (13-2) 7 East...

    Are your sure he is going to Grimsley? I heard he showed up at another school. Maybe just a rumor, but I am sure I heard he is going somewhere else.

    Increase in prices for State playoffs

    Another "different " opinion: I will be 74 just before the football season starts. And I attend a high school football game most Thursday nights, all Friday nights, and many basketball games, some soccer, and some baseball. I actually consider it a privilege and a bargain to even at the new fee...

    If someone's family moved, say 10 miles or 100 miles, to a new town and they happen to have a potentially significant athlete, is that considered a "portal transfer"? Should the new school system allow that student to attend class? To participate in school activities? Just asking?

    And I thought you were going to tailgate with us lowly Mt Airy Bear Fans at least once or twice this year. It sounds like you have forgotten us. ;)

    And LR's McKenize Wainright, a 4th round draft pick out of high school, may have sealed the deal that he is the BEST D2 player in the country during this tournament.

    Not Football but our Area

    I was filling very bad about how my LR shot itself in the foot in back to back games against Central Missouri until I just watched Northwest Nazarene COMPLETELY fell apart in the bottom of the 9th leading 5 to 1. Tampa scored 5 in the bottom of 9th and scored the go ahead as a Tampa runner...

    2025 Mount Airy Schedule

    Yesterday Year Mt Airy was accused of turning every thread into a Mt Airy thread! Funny how a year goes buy and how things do change. It seems to me that in this new environment we find ourselves, Mt Airy is an almost after thought. Not necessarily a bad thing. Just an observation. But with the...

    2025 Mount Airy Schedule

    I did not take your post as anything but a very good post. My post was not intended to be a response to you, rather it was just an "honest" lowering the expectations about a team that could be very good and it could be very middle of the road. Can not wait for the games to begin. Starting the...

    2025 Mount Airy Schedule

    With West Stokes having all the talent and the best coaching staff in NC; with both North and East Surry returning not just to the conference but also overwhelming talent; Starmount returning the best team in decades; and then the non-conference schedule (Watauga, St Stephens and that Viriginia...

    That might work and I can attests to the fact that West Stokes is 2nd behind East Wilkes (tops everybody that I know of) in quality of concession food.

    2025 Mount Airy Schedule

    King, will you be hosting a tailgate party for us at West this year? After all, when we finish the 2 day hike from the parking lot to the field, we will need food and water just to be able to enjoy the game! Besides, Mt Airy might very well be 0 and 3 going into this game.
