Independent Shrine game set for Saturday
The Oasis Shrine Bowl Classic, which will match an all-star
team of players from N.C. Independent Schools Athletic
Association schools against players from South Carolina's
independent schools, is scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday
at Catawba College in Salisbury.
"We'll only have six practices, and it is tough
to get everything put together," said Ravenscroft
coach Ned Gonet, who is coaching the North Carolina team.
"But we are working with tremendous players. They
learn quickly."
On Friday night, Charlotte Latin beat Charlotte Country
Day to win the NCISAA state title. Eight players from
the two teams reported for Shrine practice Saturday. There
are 28 independent N.C. schools that play football and
48 in South Carolina.
