This North Carolina College Was Quietly Crowned The State’s Hidden Gem Heading Into 2027

Some of the calmest acres in Raleigh sit just a few minutes from the busy downtown core, and plenty of North Carolinians drive right past them without a second look. Behind the campus gates is a small school with a big reputation for close-knit classes, friendly faces, and athletic fields worth a stroll.

Philip Rivers Gives NC State Update After Potential End to Six-Year High School Coaching Career

Philip Rivers’ high school season ended Friday night, and the question of what comes next grew louder with it. St. Michael Catholic lost 42-35 to Glenwood in the first round of the Alabama playoffs, and Rivers admitted afterward it might have been his last game on that sideline. Whatever he does next, NC State is waiting. The Wolfpack fired Dave Doeren on October 24, and nearly every report says Rivers is the man the school wants. The game itself was close to the end. St. Michael was tied 28-28 early in the fourth quarter when Glenwood scored and recovered the onside kick. The Cardinals cut it...

Mount Airy Middle repeats as football conference champion

The Mount Airy Middle School football team put together another dominant season in 2026. The Granite Bears went 7-0 to complete their second consecutive undefeated season, including a 5-0 record in the Foothills Middle School Athletic Conference. Mount Airy finished first in the conference standings, followed by Pilot Mountain at 4-1, Chestnut Grove at 3-2, Southeastern Stokes at 2-3, North District at 1-4 and Central Middle at 0-5. The Granite Bears outscored opponents 230-50. Despite their undefeated season, the Granite Bears faced their share of obstacles, namely injuries. Head coach Choppy Cawley applauded his team’s “next man up” mentality. “We had at least one starter out with an injury in every game this season, which gave lots of guys on our team the chance to step into starting roles and they rose to the occasion,” Cawley said. “They were a great team to coach all around. They play hard, are receptive to coaching and most importantly enjoyed being around each other every day. “This team will be fun to watch in high school as they will surely make some deep playoff runs when they get to varsity.” Cawley is assisted by coaches Jimmy Selba, Andre Nance, Andrew Boles, Bobby Moore,

West Stokes' Morrison wins 4A boys cross country state title

KERNERSVILLE — West Stokes senior Bryan Morrison closed his high school career with an individual state championship Friday, winning the NCHSAA 4A boys race at Ivey Redmon Sports Complex in 15 minutes, 47.88 seconds. The championship by Morrison was the first in school history for a cross country runner. Morrison beat Wilkes Central’s Morgan Woodard (16:08.90) by about 21 seconds. West Iredell’s Bryant Moore was third in 16:20.84. The Wildcats’ boys team, one of the favorites for the team title, finished fourth with 106 points. Carrboro won with 90, one point ahead of Brevard (91). Wilkes Central took third with 104, two points ahead of West Stokes. First Flight was fifth with 107. “Crap, crap, crap. Wow, that about sums it up,” West Stokes coach Benji Knox said of his initial reaction. “The boys’ team was a bit disappointing just because illness and injuries led us to a fourth-place finish instead of winning. But those are life lessons.” Knox said Morrison’s win made up for some of that disappointment. “I was super proud of Bryan for finishing his senior season with a state championship,” Knox said. “He has really worked hard to improve and deserves being a state champion.” Isaiah

Smith, Baker lead big-play Firebirds past Rockingham County in playoffs

BAILEY — Kee’Brion Smith and D.J. Baker both rushed for more than 100 yards and Southern Nash emerged the winner Thursday night in a battle of big plays as the Firebirds defeated Rockingham County 41-25 in the first round of the North Carolina High School Athletic Association Class 5A football playoffs. Southern Nash, the No. 15 seed, improved to 5-6 overall and will play at unbeaten No. 2 seed Northside-Jacksonville (10-0) in the second round next week. The Firebirds used their patented ground attack to amass 310 yards and five touchdowns. The No. 18 seeded Cougars (4-7) got the ball first and had the ball at their own 46 facing fourth-and-eight. They elected to pass, which was incomplete. Southern Nash, in turn, took advantage of the good field position and went those 46 yards in 10 plays, capped by the running of Kee’Brion Smith, Baker and Trey Smith. Baker’s one-yard run made it 6-0 Firebirds with 5:41 left in the first quarter after the extra point hit the right post. Rockingham County came right back to take the lead with a 71-yard drive in seven plays. Elijah Adams hit James Thomas for a 30-yard TD pass, the PAT was good,

NC State's Sigma Nu brothers could face charges. Here's how NC law treats hazing

The doors to an NC State University fraternity will remain closed amid an ongoing probe into serious hazing allegations within the organization, university officials and the national organization said this week. But whether fraternity leaders can be criminally charged hinges on North Carolina’s hazing law — a statute that some experts say contains a more narrow definition in comparison to other states. NC State’s Sigma Nu fraternity has been the target of a weeklong investigation into its alleged hazing of new members, with graphic videos and anonymous reports describing pledges enduring physical abuse, pressured drug use, threats and multiple hospitalizations, according to recent search warrants. In a statement to The News & Observer on Friday afternoon, Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman declined to comment on what specific charges the state could consider against Sigma Nu members, but said officials would “follow the evidence wherever it leads in considering what charges are appropriate.” “State law prohibits activities that are defined as hazing,” Freeman wrote in a message. “Abuse under any circumstances is not to be tolerated. It takes courage for victims to speak out. We take protecting our young people seriously and are committed to a thorough investigation and any
