The kid on the left looks like an extra from "Taken"

If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.

NMH has a 6'8" sophomore from Cornelius on their roster.

They have only themselves to blame. He told them he would find them...

Reports indicate that Frampton and the Dots played an interesting game last night:

Most HS has no shot clock. Poca's opponents tried to slow the game way down. Ultimately Frampton's team won 35-30, and he had 14 (including clutch free throws to seal the deal).

My high school was in a conference with a school team that featured Dominique Wilkins. On at least one occasion my school employed an extremely slow pace to attempt to negate him. The score was something like 12-6 and we lost.

The Little Washington Pam Pack?

Didn't that team also have a forward who started for Wake? I 'll probably remember his name about 3 am. I remember him as very good, maybe good enough for all conference recognition.

Alvis Rogers

City knows.

[bagelcat]

Alvis Rogers played on the same front line at Wake with Guy Morgan and Jim Johnstone.
in the backcourt was Frank Johnson (at least one year) and Mike Helms. Danny Young (Raleigh Enloe) replaced Frank.

I attended many of their games in the second hand smoke testing facility/Airplane Hangar known as the Winston-Salem Coliseum.

pretty good team, but in typical "Gentleman" Carl Tacy fashion they never went far in the tournament. One year they were beaten by BC and 5-9 Michael Adams, the next year by Memphis State and Keith Lee.

I played in a pickup game with Alvis Rogers once. He was not pleased with something I did, or more likely my existence.

(in checking BC roster Michael Adams not on that team, he must have come later, proving I don't remember everything from 35 years ago.) BC star was John Bagley.

I played summer league ball in 1976. Some little punk 8th grader started playing with us. He was pretty good. His name was Chuck Kepley.
