Last night was the largest comeback in the Craddock era. I'm positive it's probably the largest comeback in Tarboro history.

Craddock is the master at fixing what's broken during the intermission. He even did it in the championship game last year. Tarboro was down 28-6 tonight, then outscored RM 32-6 the rest of the way. Remarkable.
He did at swe in 23 also. Swe was in complete control of that game before half. And then Tarboro came out second half a totally different team.

Tarboro's offensive line completely dominated the second half. Rocky Mount was exhausted. D line for Tarboro did great in the second half also.
Those two mishandled kickoffs really bit RMT is the *** as well. They got scared to open it back up and throw the ball.

I don't know if Rocky Mount doesn't have a kicker or they just chose to onside kick the entire night. It was very puzzling to see them just on sidekick the entire time. I guess they tried to do what Hertford did in 22 when they played Tarboro. Traditionally Rocky Mount does have a kicker most Nash county schools do.

I have no idea why they kicked it short after that strip and score late in the fourth. They gave Tarboro a shorter field.

That really surprised me too. I thought they would at least try to kick it deep and make Tarboro go the length of the field. I'm not complaining though haha

I'm talking about the mishandled balls when Tarboro kicked off and RMT got pinned deep.
