Brunswick County Football Clash

Wednesday evening there were 5 football teams, on one field, all playing each other, two teams going one direction, two heading the other way, that means 4 teams on one field, all at once, it kinda makes you dizzy to think about it, regardless of how it all adds up. It’s a lot of football according to East Duplin’s Brian Aldridge: “We’re getting a lot of reps, everyone’s getting a chance to get in the game. It’s good. It’s a scrimmage and we’re trying to get our starting team.”

Coaches have a tendency to downplay their team’s accomplishments, yet West Brunswick Head Coach Jimmy Fletcher did not hesitate to say his squad will be better than the team the Trojans had last season. “I think we’ve looked good. It’s hard because we have guys going both ways, but I think this is good for us.”
