Lewis Grady and Chris Brock each had one interception for the Rebels. The loss puts North Duplin at 0-2 in the conference, but Coach Ken Avent, Sr. remains optimistic. We are just as good as any team in the conference, but we have lost two close games. We'll have to work hard and win the rest of our games, but the playoffs are still possible. We haven't been capitalizing on all our opportunities, and that is something we have to do.
Rosewood is a good team, and they won a hard fought game tonight.
North Duplin will look for its first conference win Friday night at North Johnston. Mount Olive Tribune, All rights reserved.
