VIPERS FOOTBALL PREVIEW
Vance County at Granville Central
Friday, October 19, 2018
Pregame: 6:45 PM
Game Time: 7:00 PM
Vance County High School returns to the road this Friday night as the Vipers take the short trip through Granville County to meet Granville Central. Granville Central is one of the two 1A members of the current Northern Carolina Conference (along with Louisburg), but the Panthers are not playing like a “little brother” in the conference.
Now undefeated at 5-0, and 3-0 in the NCC, they opened the season with back-to-back 35-0 shutouts of Bartlett Yancey (2A) and Kipp Pride (1A), and went on to defeat Roanoke Rapids, Warren County and J. F. Webb. Along the way, they had two nonconference games postponed (or maybe cancelled) because of hurricanes. These weather delays required Granville Central to play Bunn this past Monday, and the panthers kept their streak alive with a 22-21 win ! This makes a very full week for the Panthers, who are catching the Vipers on their way UP. Vance County has improved to 2-2 over their past four games, and came just two points short of collecting a win of their own over Bunn two weeks ago.
