Note: Just realized all of the game was not uploaded. Sorry for the technical difficulties. Hope to have the problem corrected soon.
Still unable to get the Jacksonville Northside vs SouthWest game to upload. Sorry but will keep trying.

I totally agree with Adkins on this one. I feel that Coach Danny Ward deserved the coach of the year. If Ward and Cobb records were somewhat identical then maybe I could go along with the group that chose Cobb.
I met a young man recently whom played football and graduated from North Edgecombe several years ago. We talked about North Edgecombe, Tarboro and SouthWest all being in the playoffs. But one thing that stuck with me is that this former football player said that Coach Danny Ward used to be at Phillips Middle School and he would teach the young males the fundamentals and skills before they move on to North Edgecombe High School under Coach Cobb. The former football player stated now Coach Ward has to do it all at the high school, teach them the fundamentals and the skills.
I have known Coach Ward for several years because of my traveling the county attending sporting events. Ward and I both served on the Edgecombe County Recreational Advisory Committee several years ago and I got to know him more in depth.
One good thing about the northern end of the county they have a black male Coach Ward who can relate and inspire the young black males in the poorest area of the county.
See Calvin Adkins’ article in the sports column of the Daily Southerner.
