WHIG-TV, Rocky Mount's local cable-access station, has released its 2011 "Game of the Week" high school football schedule. 

The program kicks off Saturday morning with the re-broadcast of two-time defending NCHSAA 2-A state champion Tarboro at Nash Central - which will be played Monday night after it was rained out Friday. 

All games will be replayed on WHIG-TV each Saturday morning at 10 and again on Sunday evening after the Stretchlon Sports Show. The show is available online at whigtv.com.

Wes Bradshaw will handle the play-by-play duties, while Edward Greene will provide the color commentary. 

Bradshaw, a 2000 Rocky Mount High School graduate, has many years of on-air experience having spent several seasons covering RMHS football, basketball and baseball on the radio for several area stations. He has also served as the voice of the Gryphons as the PA announcer at RMHS home football and baseball games.

Greene, a 2009 graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill with a degree in journalism, is a native of Winterville and a South Central High School alum. Greene works as the technical operations manager of WHIG-TV. 

The game listed in bold will be the game currently scheduled to be covered, but it could change at the discretion of the station.
