Bertie is in the process of upgrading the stadium. New lights have been installed and I guarantee they are the better than NE and SWE. Lol. Now when the lights come on it’s a real shame. The track gets upgraded and tennis courts will be installed after the season is over. A new sound system is and set to soon be installed. Our 2 time state champion head coach sadly passed in his prime and that began the fall. Our next successful coach played football at UNC and was offered a job in administration. He took the $$$. It has been hard to find a good coach since then to say the least. We are at the bottom of the bottom. It was cool to meet you SWE back in the day.
Idk man....we just installed some nice LED lights in the student parking lot lol.

Those bleachers are only inadequate when Tarboro or Rocky Mount comes over. And we'd take them out completely for y'all if we could lol.
Whatever happened to the Rocky Mount swe series? Oh I know y'all would take them out for us lol. I'd be fine I'm cool with the swe fans, I'd sit with y'all. Just have to hide my tarboro shirt 😂

Idk, but those were some slobberknocker games. When they went down to 3A, we were in the conference with them, but once we went down to 2A, I think we had a series with them immediately afterwards, but then it stopped. I'm gonna say Rocky Mount got scared.

I think y'all played them in the playoffs one year. Can't remember the exact year but I think it was a pretty good game and close game. I'm willing to think after what I saw Tarboro do to Rocky Mount this year and what their JV team did to them this year as well I'm expecting them to drop us from the schedule soon

No man never take your colors off. Three of us sat on the SWE side a few years back dressed out in Vikings gear no one said a word that we could hear lol
The year I sat on the southwest side was 2017. If you recall we had quite a few theatrics going on that week lol. So I really didn't feel too comfortable wearing my shirt and the group of fans around me was particularly rowdy 😂.

North edgecombe definitely needs an upgrade with it's speakers. Tarboro does to been way overdue. Lot of these small 1a schools need upgrading to their stadium
I would think Tarboro has a nice stadium given their tradition and so many state titles. Don't the boosters give money for a nice stadium? I realize Edgecombe Co. is not overflowing with rich fat cats. But I would think the Vikings would have a nice facility. Have any former Vikes that made it to the NFL made any big donations to the program - Todd Gurley? Or, is that not allowed?

Tarboro does have a nice stadium. They actually paved the walkway going into the stadium and did a few other things. But the speakers definitely need an upgrade. And man don't even get me started on them bathrooms. Todd has made quite a few donations to the program, but he likes doing it quietly.
