NASH CENTRAL SENIOR SWIM SUPERSTAR LANCE NORRIS

ROCKY MOUNT -- Perhaps the most anticlimactic, suspenseless act of the 2021-22 Big East Conference swim season came when it was time to announce the Boys Most Outstanding Swimmer as part of last Thursday's league championships at the Harrison Family YMCA.
The pick was in, and it surprised absolutely nobody as Nash Central's Lance Norris earned the prestigious award.

MAN IN THE MIDDLE. Southern Nash's Landen Baker scores inside for the Firebirds during Tuesday's road basketball victory against the Bunn Wildcats.

BUNN -- Few strategies are available to teams looking to upset the high-powered Southern Nash Firebirds during the 2021-22 boys basketball season.
Falling hopelessly behind early isn't one of them.
But time and time again, that has been the fate of Southern's foes this winter as the Firebirds inevitably use their tenacious full-court pressure defense to take command of a game early -- and never relent.

FINISH THE JOB. Northern Nash's Azariah Loring wraps up a pinfall at last Wednesday's Big East Conference Wrestling Championships.

STANHOPE -- Even though team scores aren't kept in an official capacity, rest assured that they were a focus last Wednesday for the Bunn Wildcats at the Big East Conference Wrestling Championships at the Southern Nash High School Gymnasium.
Bunn, coached by Parker Haake, had already ripped through the team portion of the Big East's regular season schedule.

RED OAK -- "Championship game"
That's how Northern Nash boys basketball coach Henry Drake said he wanted to treat every game going forward.
If the Knights want to earn the Big East Conference Regular Season Championship, Drake's club will likely have to win out from this point forward.

WILSON -- After a two-year pandemic hiatus, one of the state's most prestigious prep girls soccer events will be returning in March.
That's when The Brittany Girls Soccer Showcase -- an annual spring tradition -- will be held at Gillette Park in Wilson.
Teams from across the state will convene for the showcase, which is scheduled for March 11-12.

BUNN STAR KAITYLN ADAMS (WITH BALL)

BUNN -- Bunn put together one of its finest all-around performances of the season Tuesday -- and that wasn't good news for upset-minded Southern Nash.
The Ladycats, needing a victory to stay tied for third place in the Big East in the loss column, pulled away with a strong second quarter and never looked back en route to defeating Southern Nash by a 61-41 margin in a league girls basketball matchup at the Bunn Dome.

BUENA VISTA, VA. -- The North Carolina Wesleyan College men's basketball team dropped its second straight game in Virginia last Saturday, falling 77-67 at Southern Virginia University.
Wesleyan led a low-scoring first half 29-24 shooting 40 percent led by senior wing Damon McDowell's 13 first-half points and three 3-pointers while holding the Knights to just 33 percent shooting.
