Predicting Reynolds vs Asheville top NCHSAA football playoff second-round games

The NCHSAA football playoffs are in full swing. The second round begins on Nov. 13. Staff writer Zachary Huber (76-20) of the Times-News predicts the top eight games for this week in Western North Carolina. Game of the Week Reynolds (4-7) at No. 2 Asheville High (9-1) When : 7 p.m., Nov. 13 Quarterback Tay Williams threw for 227 yards and five touchdowns while completing 11 of 13 passes in Asheville High's 40-17 win over Reynolds in Week 8. Wide receivers Jams Skyes and Kaydan Whiteside combined for seven catches, 200 receiving yards and four touchdowns in the victory. Reynolds has struggled to score this season. It's doubtful that the Rockets will be able to keep up with one of the most high-powered offenses in Western North Carolina.

Another NC congressional race just dipped into recount territory north of Charlotte

Another North Carolina Congressional race could be headed to a recount. Republican U.S. Rep. Pat Harrigan, who represents North Carolina’s 10th Congressional District, leads his Democratic challenger Ashley Bell by 2,485 votes as of Wednesday morning after new provisional ballots were counted. The district includes parts of Lincoln, Catawba, Iredell, Yadkin and Forsyth counties. That drops Harrigan’s lead to just 0.84 percentage points, within the margin for a recount under state law. County boards of election are scheduled to meet Friday morning for their canvass meetings. Once county boards meet, a losing candidate in a non-statewide race can demand a recount if the margin in the race “is 1% or less of the total votes cast in the contest,” according to the State Board of Elections. Bell alluded to the possibility of a recount in a thank you email to supporters Sunday. “I do think it is likely that once provisional ballots are counted we will move into recount availability,” she wrote at the time. “With that said, we will keep monitoring the situation. We won’t know the final count for several more days. If we do make it into recount territory, we will consider options at that time.” In

12 North Carolina Restaurants That Know How To Make Biscuits And Gravy Right

One Asheville spot serves cathead biscuits, a name that comes from biscuits roughly as big as a cat’s head. That alone made me sit up a little straighter. Then I learned the same place lets you pick a gravy the way other cafes let you pick a muffin. Another kitchen in Charlotte never closes, so sausage gravy is on the table at 3 AM if you want it.
