NEW 6 sports schedules rotated

Rocky Mount High sports fans may not have noticed it but the sports schedules involving NEW 6 Conference games have been rotated.

Meaning, Rocky Mount won't start the league season with SouthWest Edgecombe and it won't end it with Northern Nash like it has the previous two years in the conference.

The old order for Rocky Mount was:

SW Edgecombe, Southern Nash, Nash Central, Wilson Fike, Northern Nash

The new order for RMHS, starting with the winter sports, is:

Northern Nash, Southern Nash, SW Edgecombe, Wilson Fike, Nash Central

The Gryphons will really experience the change next Friday (Jan. 11) when Northern Nash makes a return trip to RMHS' gym for their NEW 6 basketball openers.

Now, what will really feel funny is when the Knights come to Gryphon Stadium for their NEW 6 baseball opener on Wednesday, March 26 - at 7 p.m., no less.

How many of us can ever say say that you had to bundle up for a Rocky Mount-Northern Nash regular season baseball game?

There is a possibility that the league's football schedules could see some changes next fall, too.

Stay tuned!
