The N.C. High School Athletic Association has postponed its Eastern Regional basketball tournament in Greenville.
The Bunn girls were scheduled to play East Bladen tonight at Greenville Rose High, but the game will be moved to later in the week. The other 2-A girls game that was scheduled for tonight was Burlington Cummings against Bertie.
The boys 1-A Eastern Regional also was scheduled to start for tonight. The games between Weldon and Goldsboro and between Pender and Perquimans also were postponed. The boys tournament will be at East Carolina's Minges Coliseum.

Bunn's high school football game scheduled for tonight at Nash Central High in Nashville has been rescheduled for next Thursday at 7 p.m.

Both teams had an open date next week.  

Ty Howle of Bunn, a 6-foot-2, 290-pound football center, has been named as a Carolina Panthers Community Captain for the 2008 season.

The NFL team will award 10 high school players in North Carolina and 10 in South Carolina during the season for excellence on the field, in the classroom and in the community.
Howle has committed to Penn State.
He is ranked seventh in his graduating class and has been on the honor roll every semester. He has received academic awards in English, science and history.
Howle is the first of the 10 North Carolina players to be recognized.

Louisburg wins on the night it dedicates it field.

The N&O will have writers scattered throughout the area tonight for the start of the high school football season.

We plan to have boxscores on all of the games, but we expect to have reporters at:

Millbrook at Garner, David Justice, who is starting his 36th year covering high school sports

Chapel Hill at Cedar Ridge, Bonita Best

Clayton at Sanderson, Clay Best

Middle Creek at Northern Durham, Terry Hill

West Johnston at Athens Drive, Dave Malenick

Southern Vance at Durham Hillside, Javier Serna

Scores and boxscores should be available at High School Extra throughout the night, along with the night's most outstanding performances.

 In addition, Tucker Frazier will be at Green Hope's boys soccer game today in Wilson against 2007 4-A champion Broughton.
