Midnight Madness set for RMHS season-opening practice

Make plans to stay up late Friday, July 29.

Rocky Mount High will unveil its 2011 varsity football team with the start of the season's first practice under the stars - one minute after midnight (12:01 a.m.) at the Rocky Mount Athletic Complex.

Dickie Schock will open his third season as head coach under lights! Practice is expected to last approximately one hour. July 30 is the official start date for high school football across the state.

This will also be the last season the Gryphons will play at RMAC. It may be a sentimental sendoff to the place where the Gryphons have called home for 24 seasons. 

So come out and support your Gryphons!
