Rocky Mount without an endowment game - for now!

Due to an oversight, Rocky Mount's 2007 football season opener with Goldsboro (an endowment game) has been cancelled.

A verbal agreement was made with Goldsboro's head coach earlier in the year to play not one, but two endowment games at Rocky Mount the next two seasons. But that agreement was with a head coach who has since resigned.

In the meantime, Goldsboro signed fellow Wayne County school Rosewood to fill out its schedule. It left the Gryphons with no opener - during a time where almost every school has its schedule set for the next two seasons.

Rocky Mount is making efforts to find another endowment opponent. If one can't be found, RMHS will likely play a second scrimmage.

I will keep you informed on RMHS' search for another season-opening opponent.
