Best HS Schedules in NC

Here in SC I know their are a few teams with great talent who are playing great schedules, but their are also a few teams with great talent who aren't playing anybody. Who in North Carolina is really challenging themselves with a tough non-conference schedule?

 

Rocky Mount

March 2 - J.H. ROSE, 4 p.m.
March 4 - @ Durham Riverside, 4 p.m.
March 6 - vs. Ardrey Kell - Impact Classic, Cary, 12 noon
March 9 - @ J.H. Rose, 4 p.m.

Tough first 4 games...

 

very rough schedule!!!!1 Aycock March 6 impact classic and Wilson Hunt March 2.

Wilson Hunt is a sleeper in their conference. They have guys that can hit RM pitching and WH has pitching. Should be a good race between them two. Don't count out Fike. Fike better have more pitching than Prince. I don't know what Fike has back, but I heard they lose alot of hitting.

 

Tough Schedule Awaits Defending Champions

Never mind that every team on Ardrey Kell’s schedule will already be “jacked up” to take a piece out of the North Carolina 4A defending state champions, the docket that coach Hal Bagwell has assembled for the 2010 season would test anyone. Loaded with top ranked teams, and playing in what is considered one of the top leagues in the state, the Knights will have one of the toughest schedules any NC team will face in the spring.

Beyond facing Southwestern 4A foes, where all eight teams of the SW4A conference qualified for the state playoffs in 2009, the first time any league accomplished that feat, the Knights’ schedule will include six defending league champions.

AK will open the 2010 season March 2nd at home against former SW4A running mate Weddington, who has dropped down to the 3A classification and reassigned to the Southern Carolina league. The following day they will travel to Huntersville to tangle with North Meck before concluding the week in Cary at the Impact Baseball Invitational against the defending NEW 6 conference champion Rocky Mount (20-3).

Week two will be just as taxing, as the Knights will travel to two time defending South Piedmont 3A champion Marvin Ridge (22-4) and host two time defending Rocky River 2A champion West Stanly (23-3) before opening up the SW4A schedule with South Meck and their new field boss John Tuscan.

Northwestern 4A champion Watauga (16-8) will visit Knight’s field on Saturday March 27th in their annual endowment contest. AK will also have another Saturday contest April 17th in Rockingham versus Richmond Senior.

April 6th -8th will see the Knights in action at Myers Park in the Jack Sink Tournament where they will hook up with Charlotte Independent school’s 3A state champion Charlotte Christian (29-3) and Providence Day, the only school that has defeated AK in both 2008 and 2009 seasons, each time in walk-off fashion.

The final full week of the regular season will have the Knights traveling to face West Meck (14-9), the number one seed of the Queen City league in 2009, and Hopewell (20-6) the MECA 6 defending champion and their new head coach Chet Greason, formerly from East Meck.

Defending SW4A champion Providence (23-6) awaits the Knights on the final day of the regular season in a battle between the last two league champions and what could very well be a clash for the 2010 title.

Opening round of the SW4A tournament will begin on Thursday May 6th before the Knights begin the defense of their North Carolina 4A state title on May 14th.

The Knights will have preseason scrimmages on Saturday, February 20th at Marvin Ridge with the Mavericks and Fort Mill and on Wednesday the 24th at Mt. Pleasant.

Weddington Schedule

Weddington dropped down to 3A this year, but kept the BIG TIME schedule.
2-25 (Scrimmage) Charlotte Christian

3-2 Ardrey Kell
3-4 Butler
3-10 JM Robinson
3-11 Providence
3-31 Charlotte Christian (reg season game)
4-5 East Meck
4-6 Hopewell
4-7 Independence
4-14 Mt. Pleasant
4-22 South Meck
4-29 Grace Academy
Not to mention Marvin Ridge twice in conference play.

With a young team, Weddington's metal will be tested early and often. This has got to be one of the toughest schedules in the state.

 

CARY HIGH SCHOOL

Not many Non-Conf games but the conference schedule makes up for it.

First four games:
