Today is the day when Cardinal Gibbons usually wins a lot of championships which is the day the rest of the state complains about them.

He was one of the most gifted coaches I've ever been around. And the way he handled his diagnosis was truly remarkable and inspiring. Please pray for his wife & family's comfort, both now and in the days & years to come.

The new calendar makes a lot of sense, but not for boys & girls lacrosse. Four sports run April 26-June 11, NONE of them use the football field. Why is lax not playing during that window and instead overlapping w/🏈 & girls ⚽️ and coincides w/boys ⚽️?

NCHSAA moves football to February, shortens seasons for all sports due to pandemic

The N.C. High School Athletic Association will not play high school football this fall and all other sports will see changes to their schedules after a vote by the NCHSAA Board of Directors on...

One thought from last night: Garner was a really gracious team in defeat. Basically half the team called out to Wake Forest as WF huddled and told them "y'all go win it all again" and "best of luck" and things like that. I've seen it before, but not that large of a scale.
