FEATURED GAMES South Mecklenburg at West Charlotte • : exciting. They tell me that Darryl Bonapart of the famous Bonapart brothers is an excellent quarterback for the Sabres and the Lions have the dashing Kenneth atrr‘ng back- 'n,« d«fen»« will probably win this game and if they were playing at South, I would bet On on the Sabres. But with the homefleld advantage, the Lions might be a step ahead. West Charlotte 14 South Mecklenburg 13. EAST MECKLENBURG AT OLYMPIC The Trojans hold only one school victory over East Mecklenburg in their history. So don’t expect miracles. They looked bad. really bad. against Richmond County. But the Raiders from the Southeastern 4A Conference have got to be one of the teams to beat. They looked so good. Maurice Flowers will probably have a good game at quarterback and the Eagles do have some receivers who can catch the ball. No Rudy Abrams team loses two in a row. Give credit to coach Ray Barger’s defensive team. When the offense catches up with the defense, the Trojans could be dangerous. East Mecklenburg 7 Olympic C. In other games.
