I would say that East Burke will have a good night against North Surry. Both are 5-5 records but I am pretty sure EB's 5 losses are closer, tighter games than N Surry.

If EB can get an early lead, they should be able to win by at least 2 touchdowns.

North Surry line has some size. Lot of kids 6'2 to 6'4 250lbs but they wear down 2nd half. Should be close game. I'll take greyhounds in upset by 3.

NS is young and their QB has thrown for 1900 yds as sophomore. Soph RB is 10 yds away from 1,000. Team responded well from 3 game losing streak in middle of season. Should be a great game

EB have there qb back?
I'd have to ask a kid at church. I doubt they will. Heck I didnt see their track star in the game last one I saw. EB better play their hearts out, not looking so good next year. Prob worst JV record and scoring spread i've seen and losing alot to graduation. Middle school went 4-3, guess thats some hope lol

I'm sure North Surry would of rather made the pleasant trip to maiden again this year. Probably still saved in their gps system. 😂 I'd say this game could be a toss up
Prob so but not expecting much. I kinda wanted to write em' off after the Chase game. Saw in a FB post that this is there FIRST home playoff game since 2008. For the history lovers, that game Tyler Shatley was a senior and still a beast but didnt perform quite as good as his Jr year and a TON of that reason is he lost some of the Oline he had in 2007. We played South Meck first round, FOGGY night, very foggy. We couldn't see the fans on the visitors side LOL. South Meck had Spencer Suey on their team. He became a friend of Shatley they both went on to Clemson together. Suey was a beast for South Meck and one of the main reasons SM even done much for a couple years. Suey got to try out for the NFL and I think made a practice squad or maybe a team in general or something somewere. South Meck won that game unfortunatly. Shatley just retired from the Jags bout a year and a half ago.

I could be wrong but after fridays game it could be a draught for East Burke as well as it looks to be for Draughn for a few years.

They need to close draughn and send the Drexel kids to Patton and send part of the Valdese kids to east Burke . Should have never built 2 new high schools
I am for Draughn cause you gotta think bout possible expansion and people moving to area but not sure why more people would move to area cause its not like theres big time industry there but to keep it to 3 schools the way you layed it out, that was great. I hope there would be room. We had to have Patton cause Freedom was bottle necked up.

Well I’ve been working on a project and looking how the county would like if it was 3 high schools. In the scenario I was working on I sent 37% of freedom to the new school and 30% of east Burke to the new school .
here is how it would look right with 3 high schools


Freedom 1258

East Burke 981

Central 1160

I actually went from the year 2000 to present
