I may be mistaken but i think that second game was at Tarboro and govenor Hunt came to the game wearing a cowboy hat looking for a win since he was from Wilson correct me if i'm wrong, its be so long ago.
I saw him play in the 2017 State Championship game. He didn't have his best offensive game but his defense was outstanding. He was the fastest player on the field and ran down a couple of Tarboro's backs from the opposite side of the field and saved touchdowns. His high school qb has graduated...
No disrespect to any of my fellow Viking fans but all this talk about Lakewood is getting way ahead of itself. I'm more worried about Pender and those wrecking balls they have. Just hoping no injuries occur bringing those guys down all night. You all remember the 240lb fullback we had. He could...

North Edgecombe has received a grant from the state and will be building a new school and renovating its high school. It will consolidate two elementary schools with the high school and be called North Edgecombe School of Innovation with K-12. North has always had some good athletes. It...
What would cool is to have the Starmount- Mount Airy and the Tarboro -Havelock game in a double hitter at a state championship venue. The tailgating and atmosphere would be off the hook!!!!
No one gave us a chance in 83 either lol. This Havelock team is right there with the 2019 ES and last couple MA teams and some of those WRH dawgs. I'm a Viking thru and thru so i ain't never saying we can't win. We just can't give them short fields.
If i remember correctly in 2013 Wallace Rose Hill rolled into town with a beast of a running back and a offensive line the size of oak trees and ran sweeps to the right side all night and mowed us down like corn stalks. I think the score was somewhere around 35 to 10 and broke a 45 game win...
I'm all in on that and i remember watching that 2019 ES team beat the brakes off of us. They probably would have beaten most teams in NC except for the very elite 4A and 3A teams. I don't think we have the fire power to get into a shoot out with the Rams. Our best chance is to play lights out...
The Rams have a stout football team. Averaging over 50 points a game and giving up around 10. They have a wideout that is really good. I saw him play and he is very difficult to tackle. He runs like Lamar Jackson, juking , stopping and starting and very fast. I think their receiving core is...
I can't see it turning into a low scoring contest. Tarboro's backfield is too deadly and with the added passing threat its too much to throttle back. It will be a feeling out period but someone will turn the wick up. But we all know how weird this contest can be. Strange things happen. lol
Playing Tarboro will make your team better,. It will show them what they can be if they put in the hard work. Just think how seasoned those freshman will be as juniors and seniors. Glad to see you guys on a come back. I remember those tough Bertie teams we use to play.
