FRIDAY, NOV 13
Games against South Wake Homeschool is on hold until we find out about gym availability and whether or not we are going to have a middleschool team in the NCHE league or play non-league games only.  (See note below).  South Wake will not be having a varsity team.

If that game is cancelled, we will try to schedule a practice for Friday.

SATURDAY, NOV 14
Games against Durham Homeschool will be rescheduled at a later date.
Practice is 8:00 to 10:30 at Alliance Medical Ministries, 101 Donald Ross, in Raleigh.


Note:  We are waiting on the decision whether Aaron Mullens will be released to play with the Hawks homeschool league games this year.  It is an NCHE requirement that players moving to other teams be released from their previous team in order to play in the NCHE league and tournament games. That should be decided this week.

If he isn't released, we will probably opt out to play as a non-homeschool team (meaning Aaron would play as an unattached player).  We could still play all our games but would not be able to participate in the season ending NCHE regional and state tournament.  However, we would be able to play in the East Coast Championships or any other homeschool tournament not affiliated with the NCHE.

We have a similar situation for our jv team.  Because nearly all the jv players are needed on the varsity roster, according to the NCHE, they cannot participate on two teams in the NCHE league.  Unless we get 4 or more additional JV players by the grace period to register a team (Nov. 24), our JV team will play as a non-school team with the same restrictions as cited above.  They will play most of the games already on the schedule, except for some of the homeschool opponents that have both a varsity and jv squad.

This has been a most difficult year for filling rosters. With 4 homeschool teams now in the triangle, the pickings for players are far less than when we were the only team in the city back in 2001.  I ask that you continue to pray that God sends some more players.  It would certainly be a blessing to be able to compete at all three levels in the NCHE again this season.

I will be available this Saturday morning, after the practice, to answer all questions regarding our rosters and scheduling; and any other questions you might have regarding the basketball program.

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all our iniquities; Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit; Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; Who satisfies your years with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle. -Psalm 103:1-5
