NCHSAA Round Two State 2A Football Playoff Preview, Cherryville at Alleghany

Cherryville, NC (WNN) - The Cherryville Ironmen will head to the mountains of Sparta, NC, for a second-round playoff matchup at Alleghany High School on Friday, November 13, 2026. The number five seed, Alleghany Trojans, were idle last week after earning a first-round bye. Cherryville, the number twelve seed, is coming off a dominating 63-0 performance at home against Elkin High School. This time of year is what many refer to as the second season, or the real season. Each game matters; simply put, you win, you advance; if you lose, your season is over. Each round, the competition potentially gets tougher as fewer teams remain in contention for the coveted state championship.

Grades in School Are Controversial

Grades have often been an area of contention for students and teachers. Late work is often controversial. “I think it depends on the class,” Farren Shifflett, freshman, said. “If it’s a class that requires a lot of work, no it’s not fair. Students often deal with a lot mentally, and I think that sometimes work is just hard to get finished.”

Here are NC State's plans to increase tuition - for the second straight year

For the second year in a row, NC State is planning to ask the UNC System to increase in-state and out-of-state undergraduate tuition by 3% for the 2027-28 school year. That would bring in-state undergraduate tuition to $6,933, and out-of-state undergraduate tuition to $33,418. If the proposal gets final approval, it would mark the second straight year of 3% tuition increases for NC State’s incoming students. In-state undergrads already enrolled keep their current rate. Chancellor Kevin Howell said this will generate $4.5 million in extra cash for the university. The school plans to use most of that to “improve the quality and accessibility of the NC State educational experience.” But it is saving $1.4 million of the pot to fund promotional salary increases for faculty. NC State won’t raise tuition across the board for graduate students — but certain graduate programs will likely get more expensive. The board is asking to increase tuition for the school’s masters-level physiology program by $1,000, and tuition for its graduate programs in biomanufacturing by $2,000. The school also wants to increase its student media fee, its fee that funds repairs and renovations for its student center, and its housing and dining fees. The UNC
