@CarsonCougarFB awards tonight. @Abel_AJ_Brown14 got his varsity letter, but more importantly he won Jayvee Defensive Player of the Year. Big deal since it’s his 1st year playing defense. Excited for the next 2 years at varsity. Congrats Abel, proud of you son.
Area 3 playoffs start Monday. Mocksville vs Rowan County at 7 pm at South Rowan High. Game 2 at Rich Park and Mando Field at 7 on Tuesday. If 3rd game needed, at South Rowan on Wednesday.
Final score: Rowan County 6, Matthews 0. Parker Durant pitched all 7, struck out 9, walked 1. allowed 2 hits. 82 pitches. 59 strikes. Potential parade through Mount Ulla and Cleveland for the kid tomorrow morning. Rowan has won 16 in a row.
@AdamSchefter Pretty sure this is going to set us back at least 4-5 years now in Charlotte. Idk why they would do this after the way they played from January until the playoffs. Maybe it’ll pay off in the end, but I’m not holding my breath.
